Chapter 8: Revelations and travel.

After the victory over the Drakylines and the Inferianox, each tribe chose to live together in peace and harmony. Grym, as a guardian of the magic portals of the forest, was forced to return to his functions.

However, he left a whole troop of infrianox at my disposal. Life has resumed its peaceful course in the great forest of Akanthia, and everyone lived happy days there.

Nexis, by fixing the three young Inferianox chiefs, said to themselves: "Now, I have to find a name for these three.

They were so adorable that we couldn't help but look at them, but the choice of names turned out to be delicate. Indeed, by appointing Grym, the whole troop had inherited from the same name, then the options were limited.

However, it was essential to find names for these three, because they had not inherited their older brother. »»

Nexis took the time to think about a name. He obviously observed their forms and their appearance, and suddenly, an idea crossed his mind: I found it! You, who are linked to fire, your name will be pyroxis. You, who are associated with water, will bear the name of aqualis. And finally, you, who embodies the earth, you will be Terranis.

By giving him these names, he had become pale and as liquefied; He had once again used too much Mana. His sister, who was nearby, took him and brought him back inside the tent so that he could rest.

A few hours later, he woke up, a little dizzy. He observed the room in which he was and wondered: "Where am I?" »»

He then remembered what he had experienced and said: Ah yes, I remember, I was named these Infernianox, then it is likely that I have exhausted my mana once again.

_ I wonder who could have driven here?

At that time, Nexis heard a voice coming from the outside who said: that's it, are you finally awake?

Nexis: Oh!?

Then, when entering the tent, he saw his sister Fayra.

Nexis: Oh Fayra, I'm so delighted to find you! It was you who led me to this tent, aren't you?

Fayra: Yes, that's it. You were completely exhausted after appointing these three people, you really had to rest.

Seeing Fayra hold something in his hands, Nexis asked him: What do you want in your hands?

Fayra replied with a smile: these are clothes. You were looking for something, so I asked Grobeliques to make you one.

Nexis, very happy, exclaimed: clothes, oooh !!! His eyes shone with joy.

Fayra replied: You will finally be able to use your human form.

Nexis, delighted: oh yes, it's really great.

Fayra put the garment on a table, then said to him when I leave: I let you change quietly. Don't worry, I'm going to take care of warning them.

She walked away, and Nexis began to bounce back on himself to the table, where he adopted a human form. He took the appearance of a young boy who looked very much like the one we had seen in the cave with the Leviathan. However, unlike the latter, the young boy here present had a short white wick and blue eyes as deep as the ocean.

But he had bright purple hair, dotted with a few black strands; Her long, smooth hair and little build gave him an irresistible charm.

Nexis (all enthusiastic): OOOH !! Finally, a human body, what happiness!

_ With these ears, I can finally hear and see with eyes, it's really nice.

He observed his hands, sometimes struggling to believe it. Happy, he took the clothes placed on the table and dressed. Once ready, he came out of the tent, and all the Grobelles, Infernianox and Drakylines were there, present.

Going out, he noted that all were surprised by his appearance, to the point of staying a mouth. Not understanding their reaction, Nexis asked with curiosity: "Is there anything that is wrong?" »»

The son of the chief of the Grobeliques, Zarg, approached, visibly surprised, and exclaimed: Lord Nexis, is that really you?

Nexis, a little disconcerted, replied: obviously it's me. I understand that you have never seen me in a human appearance ... but I didn't think you would react like this.

Zarg attempts to explain: no, no, that's not it, it's just that ...

Nexis interrupted him with curiosity: what then? Tell me !

Zarg ends up admitting: you are very similar to the demon king, Voryn Solari.

Nexis, very surprised, exclaimed: to the demon king!?

Zarg: Yes, it's quite disturbing ... The demon king Varny Solari disappeared now five years ago, and now you have an appearance that looks exactly.

Totally stressed and prey to great nervousness, he addressed Astra: "Tell me, astra, do you think that the young man I absorbed in the cave is actually a demon king?" »»

Astra: “It is very possible that this is the case. »»

Nexis: (By thinking about it now, I wonder why I was not warned earlier. I am also convinced that Xaltrath was aware that it was a demon king.)

Then Zogg, the chief of the tribe of Grobeliques, addressed himself to him: Lord Nexis ...

Nexis (in a start): Yes ... !!!

Zogg: Please, could you inform me if you have a link with the demon Varny Solari?

Nexis was in a dead end, no longer knowing what to say. It was then that his sister speaned gently: "For what reason are you so interested in the demon Varny Solari?" What does it represent for you? »»

Zogg replied: "Well, the demon king Varny was a regular visitor to the Akanthian forest, he often came there to visit Lord Xalrath. »»

After his sudden disappearance, we have not heard from him at all, and now we meet someone who looks like him.

Fayra: Okay, I understand. Rest assured, we have no connection with the Varny demon king. If my brother looks like him, it's just a coincidence.

_ Let me confirm that the young man who stands before us is nexis Vathyss, my brother, and the blob you have known.

Nexis then added with a smile: but if my appearance bothers you, I can always resume my form of blob ...

Zogg: Oh no, not at all, this appearance suits you wonderfully.

Well, I did not expect the young boy we found at the bottom of the cave, lying with Xalrath, in reality a demon king. I suspect that Xalrath was aware of something. When I'm going to bring him that here, he will certainly have explanations to give.

After these little misunderstandings, life has quietly resumed its course in the Akanthian forest. Some grobs were hunting while others were trying to build homes for everyone. That said ...

Nexis: Zogg ...

Zogg: Yes, Lord Nexis.

Nexis: Could you tell me if this house will be solid enough to stand up?

The house built by the Grobelles was somewhat difficult to live, with unstable frames and perfectible foundations. Since they came from a forest environment, it is understandable that they did not have access to the concrete.

Nexis: Say, do you have knowledge of construction?

Zogg: We are used to building our houses in this way, but it is true that they generally do not last very long. Regarding the expertise in this area, it is the Dorgram who do it best.

Nexis: Dorgram, really?

Zogg: Yes, these are real craftsmen, specialized in forge, goldsmithery and magic engineering. They create weapons and enchanted armor of exceptional quality.

Nexis: Oh, it's incredible! It would be great if they could help us build resistant habitats.

Then a voice intervened: how about going to visit Dorgram? They may agree to lend us a hand.

Nexis replied gently: “First of all, you should know where to find them. Do you really think they will be willing to help us, Fayra? »»

Fayra replied with determination: "I am not sure, but we can always try our luck. And you, Zogg ... "

Zogg bowed respectfully: “Yes, Lady Fayra. »»

Fayra continued: "Would you know where we could meet them?" »»

Zogg replied: "They come at the origin of the kingdom of Velmaria. »»

Fayra exclaimed, surprise: “The kingdom of Velmaria! ? »»

Zogg confirmed: “Yes, it is a kingdom renowned for its advanced engineering thanks to Dorgram. »»

Nexis: So, is Dorgram a nation in its own right?

Zogg: Not at all, dear Lord Nexis. Unlike other nations often dominated by a single race, this kingdom is based on a beautiful harmony between the different peoples.

Nexis: What do you mean by that?

Zogg: Dorgram claim that their weapons and armor are unique, offering a strategic advantage to their armies. With the Astreons, their airline cavalry is one of the most powerful on the continent. And all these creatures are led by a human king.

Nexis: It's really fascinating, it makes me want to discover this kingdom even more.

Fayra then proposes: then, it's decided, we will visit Dorgram in the kingdom of Velmaria.

Nexis: Yes, why not? It could be very fun.

Here is a nice rewriting of your text in French:

We therefore made the decision to explore the kingdom of Velmaria. My sister and I decided to go there both, in the company of the three grobelic.

Nexis: Gibbo, Terranis and Skiv, you will be our traveling companions.

Skiv, who tends to be a little grumpy, added: "Me? Why that? I do not think I am of great help there, it would be better that I stay in the village. »»

In reality, Skiv felt a certain apprehension to the idea of ​​going to Velmaria, which encouraged him to look for excuses to stay. However, Nexis, in a very convincing tone, said to him: "Come on, we are going to have a great time, you come with us, it's decided! »»

Aqualis and Pyroxis, you will stay here with the others. I count on you to be wise in my absence.

A little disappointed, Pyroxis replied: "Why is it only Terranis who leaves with you?" I would have liked to accompany you too. »»

Nexis was trying to explain them kindly: "Next time, you will come with me. It is difficult to land in a kingdom without knowing the foundations.

In addition, Terranis will lend us a hand only to go to Velmaria, then he will return to the village. In the meantime, you will promise me to remain wise and protect the village well in my absence. »»

Pyroxis: "Very well, we will watch over the village, isn't that Aqualis?" »»

Aqualis: "Yes, I agree, but be careful, Lord Nexis. »»

Nexis: I promise you that I will be careful.

We then hit the road towards the kingdom of Velmaria. Me, Fayra, accompanied by Gibbo, Terranis and Skiv, we were going to meet Dorgram in order to solicit their help and learn how to develop our country.

Thanks to Terranis Talents, who is a specialist in the keys to the worlds, we were able to reach the kingdom of Velmaria in no time.

It is true that with these names, it may seem a little confusing, but the skill, key to the worlds, makes it possible to open temporary portals between different areas of the forest, which allows an instant passage. Isn't that incredible?

Nexis: Thank you, Terranis. You can return to the village now.

Nexis observed the entrance to the kingdom, then, with a large smile, he resumed his form of blob and landed on his sister's arm before saying: Come on, let's go!
