21 The Ashen Desser

It took two days to travel though Bloodmoon pass once they reached the end Ryi'june saw a massive dessert of ash that spanned as far as the eye could see. Ryi'junelooked up at the sky it was a dark red. " where are we?" Ryi'june asked Chirstina. "we are in the Ashen Dessert." Chirstina lead Ryi'june and Hanzo deeper into the dessert " the Ashen Dessert used to be the realm of Dra'ghoul but was destroyed in a single day by the mightypower of The ashenKing a being that lives inside the Pale Tower. he knows everything in this world and beyond.

Ryi'june and Chirstina reached the pale tower Hanzo saw Ryi'june and waved to him they walked over to where Hanzo and Kiren were standing in front of a massive iron door etched on the door were thousands of mystical signs many that Ryi'june did not know of.

Chirstina opened the door and lead them up a spiraling staircase to the top of the tower. there inside of a large room sat a massive Thorne of Devilstone seated upon the Thorne was the Ashen King hismassive figure was thin and bony. He raised his head his eyes were deep and sunken in he had no hair and his skin was dark grey. " come to me Ryi'june" The ashen king said but his mouth did not move.

Ryi'june walked up to the Ashen King as he did the room faded away into darkness and all that reminded was the Ashen King sitting upon his Thorne of Devilstone. " Demonborn, you have many questions for me I can tell"

Ryi'june nodded " if I am part demon but am also part of Lupine is there any part of me that was human."

The Ashen King replied " yes, your still human as well." Ryi'june replied " but isn't Lupine, Voidherts true form and Voidheart is pure darkness." The Ashen King replied " yes but you are not part of Voidlupine you are part of a different lupine from a alternate universe."

Ryi'june just nodded all of this was very confusing " how do you know this?" Ryi'june asked " I was told by a being of great power calling himself The Writer told me to tell you so that later if you forget or are confused to why Lupine is being called Voidpin just think back to this conversation."

Ryi'june nodded and said " I need to know where the other relics are at." The Ashen King touched Ryi'june on the forehead and a bright light engulfedhim. " I have given you fifty percent of my power and you should now know where the other relics are as well as have enough power tobecame your true self.

a dark purple light engulfed Ryi'june he could feel Vexen coming more clear in his mind all of Vexens memories seemed so real like he had lived them before. then they all got pieced together and Ryi'june realized that he is Vexen the room became whole againKi'ren, Hanzo and Chirstina came back into view Chirstina felt a change in Vexens Kyi it felt older like it had been around for thousands of years.

Vexen thanked The Ashen King as they were leaving The Ashen King said " you might want to find out about the Dra'ghoul bloodline." Vexen replied " why is that?" The Ashen King replied " you are the wilder of Demonsong. the blade that can only be used by a Dra'ghoul. you might want to look into it since the last Dra'ghoul died sixteen thousand years ago when the Kingdom of Dra'ghoul was destroyed."

Vexen looked at Demonsong and said " I have never thought about where the sword came from. I have just always had Demonsong I cant remember not having it"

Chirstina nodedd and said " we will look into it." Vexen lead them out of the pale tower and towards the Temple of the moon king in the Twilight forest.

The Ashen King put his hands together and said calmly " Voidpin I know you are there." the wall opened up and Voidpin stepped out " Ash it has been ages seen I've seen you last. I don't how you did it but in twenty seven eons you have gotten weaker" Voidpin said as he summed a sword of chaos Kyi and drove it into The Ashen King the raw chaos Kyi disintegrated him into nothingness. once the Ashen King was died The pale tower began to fall Voidpin walked over to the Thorne and broke off a long piece of the Devilstone channeling his dark power into it the devilstone formed itself into a massaive Black Abyssal Dragon Blade (also known as a B.A.D Blade) Voidpin raised The B.A.D blade as he did a massive beam of Chaos Kyi engulfed The Ashen Dessert. the blast was so strong that the Ashen Dessert with took up one third of Tylingariea was wiped off of the universe leaving a massive crater in one third of of the world.

Voidpin put his sword away and said " that was easy" in a instant Vexen had appeared there was the clash of Kyi colliding as black and purple lighting shoot into the sky. " Vexen, yo uh have finally come back now I can stop holding back" Voidpin said as he put his sword away Vexen gulped and he felt the earth tremble beneath his feet. a dark red aura engulfed Voidpin his skin became a dark grey as his body became encased in Demon Dragon Armor a long spiked tail grew out of his back as well as long curved blades extend from his spine and shoulders and two long horns grew out if his head. he raised two fingers and shoot a black ball of Kyi at Chirstina. Vexen quickly teleported in front of her and grabbedtheball with his bare hand. Vexen glared at Voidpin as white lighting shootfrom his palm destroying the black death ball. Voidpin smiled and said " you are getting stronger have not even have one millionth of the power to defeat me." Vexen gasped as he felt a intense pain in his chest.

Time slowed down as Vexen fell to the ground blood pouring out of a massive hole in his chest . Chirstina grabbed Vexen he could see a white dome encase them, Chirstina screaming for him not to die and then everything fell into darkness. Chirstina grasped at the wound she tried to use healing magic but was to scared to do it. Chirstina screamed "No! I can't lose you Krissy! Don't go!" Chirstina teleported them to Highgarden and Ryi'june was put in urgent care. Christinasat in the waiting area with her hands in her head she sighed lifted her head up and sung

Don't go to sleep, yet little baby bear.

there is so much to see, so much for you to share.

came with little baby bear, we climb up a mountain, see the rising sun and then came back to bed to dream of having fun in the sun,

Close your eyes, my little baby bear, I am always with you, will never leave you and I will always love you, my sweet and beutifal baby bear.

after she got done singing Chirstina wipped her eyes that were soaking wet. "I miss you so much Krissy."

Ryi'june awake he was falling thougha void of darkness Ryi'june tried to speak but he could not. in what felt like days Ryi'june laid on a massive glass platform. Ryi'june saw in front of him was a massive castle floating on platform of black rock. Ryi'june walked towards the castlehe looked around at the green, red and blue flowers that decorated the castle. the castle had four massive towers and looked to have five floors its bricks were built of a stone that Ryi'june had never seen before.

once Ryi'june entered the castle he had the strangest thought that he had been here before but that was impossible he had never seen this castle before.

in the center of the room was a large stone table with sat three pieces of armor Ryi'june walked to the table. A tall blonde boy stood next to the table. he wore a torn red clock. " boy were am i?" Ryi'june asked

The boy moved over to the table and began putting the armor on Ryi'june " you are in the castle of Dra'ghoul. the boy said once the final piece was put on Ryi'june the boy took off his clock and placed it around Ryi'june " why are you doing this I don't understand?!" Ryi'june cried

The boy replied "you I banishthe being known Vexeon to the dark dimension" Ryi'june felt intense pain as Vexen spilt from Ryi'juneand was absorbed into nothing. " give me your right hand Ryi'june "the boy said Ryijune The boy grasped it as he did a intense glow surround The boy the castleshock Ryi'june could feel great power as well as his life force returning returning to his body Ryi'june could hear Chirstina crying for him he could. Ryi'june turned to the boy he was fading in a shadow " who are you specter?" Ryi'june asked The boy replied " I am Draco Dr'ghoul and you are the reincarnation of Azar'warth Dra'ghoul the last king of the Dra"ghoul Empire"

Ryi' June gasped for breath " oh thank La'fe you are alive" Chirstina cried in happiness as she embraced Ryi'june sobbing " I thought I lost you forever Krissy, don't ever leave me again!" Chirstina cried though sob Ryi'june hugged her as welleven though he had no idea who Krissy was and said " I will never leave you Chirstina I promise"
