Somewhere in the Territory of Eagle lies a Stone temple, hidden away by the rest of society. Because of their seclusion, the residents have to create their own barrier to protect against the harsh winds.
This temple is home to only two people, an elderly man named Chrongrey and his adopted pupil, a seventeen-year-old girl named Ida Velox.
Chrongrey is white, 5ft 10in, wears circular glasses, has a long white beard, and a tall pointy greyish blue cap with a matching robe. He always carries a wooden walking stick with a turquoise orb on top.
Ida's skin is tannish brown, she's 5'8, has short messy black hair, brown eyes, a beauty mark on the left side of her face, and is wearing an oversized teal football jersey, jean shorts, and knee-high white socks.
Chrongrey is in his study sitting down and looking into an older book.
BAM
Ida slams the door open
Chrongrey quickly slides the book back under his desk.
Ida has an eager look on her face
"Old Man!" she yells
Chrongrey jumps out of his seat
"What is it?"
Ida gets quiet and twiddles her fingers.
"There's nothing to eat..."
Chrongrey rolls his eyes and smiles as he gets up from his desk
"Well then, we'll just have to go to the market then won't we?"
"Just let me go see how long the barrier has before I have to charge it again."
"Aye!"
Ida says as she says salutes then runs off.
"What is wrong with that girl..."
Chrongrey says shaking his head and smiling.
Chrongrey leaves his room and walks over to a door, upon opening it a spiral stairwell is made visible.
At the bottom of the well is a darker room filled with books in every corner and in the center floats a seven-foot rhombus-shaped crystal that spins slowly.
Chrongrey puts a hand on the crystal's surface and it glows faintly.
"As I thought, time for another charge."
Chrongrey takes his hand off, grabs both hands onto his staff, and slams it onto the ground.
His eyes, along with the sphere on top of his cane, glow turquoise and energy falls from the sphere like water and runs toward the Crystal.
As the crystal consumes the river of energy it glows brighter.
Chrongrey stops, his eyes dim and so does his orb.
His body starts to shake in fatigue.
"That should be enough"
He starts slowly walking in the other direction
"I really got to make Ida start doing this, alas she hasn't the control over her magic."
Ida can be heard yelling from the ground level
"Gramps are we Going?!!!"
Rushing an old man...
Chrongrey thinks shaking his head.
He then taps his staff on the ground and appears before Ida.
"So Impatient."
He says as he hits her on the head with his staff.
Chrongrey then opens the door for Ida awaiting her exit.
She walks out rubbing her head and he follows and closes the door behind him.
Outside the tower is a small barrier with barely any room to walk around.
Chrongrey looks at the powerful wind fight against it.
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
Ida looks at the wind too
"That wind huh... never gives."
Chrongrey chuckles then grabs a purple crystal from his robe pocket
He throws it down onto the floor and a purple portal opens up vertically.
They both walkthrough
Year 600/7-am/Day of Corin's Blessing Ceremony
A Market District is a place for any form of farmer, miner, jeweler, smith, craftsman, collector, or whomever to meet trade, and or sell to. These places span for miles with different types of kiosks each more colorful than the last.
Ida looks around curiously.
"Have we been here before?"
Chrongrey looks around admiring the environment.
"No, we haven't, I'm glad you noticed. I chose a Market district of the Grizzly region."
Ida smiles.
"It's a nice change of scenery!"
Chrongrey turns to her.
"Couldn't agree more"
"Ok, are you ready?"
He says tossing her a bag of coins
Ida catches it
"There should be around 3 thousand Tel in there."
He puts on some small reading glasses and Ida grabs some large circular goggles from her back pocket and puts them on over her eyes.
Ida gets into a running stance and puts a thumbs up.
Chrongrey pulls out an old stopwatch and a list.
Chongrey squints at it.
"We need a month's supply of Spacial Magic stones"
He starts the timer.
Ida's eyes light up turquoise.
She takes off moving faster than the eye can see
When she runs a turquoise blur follows.
She comes back with some purple magic stones and sets them by him.
She takes off again bringing more back.
Chrongrey continues to talk as she runs.
"We need the following ingredient to last a month as well: Corn, Potatoes, Chicken-"
Ida runs back and forth bringing the things back as he says them.
Chrongrey: "- Onion, bell pepper, any form of chocolaty sweets, oh and I almost forgot we need more Tide and Thunder Magic stone!"
She comes back with the last of the items
Her turquoise-colored eyes fade away as she collapses to the floor panting.
He stops the timer and then looks at her
"You successfully did the list and you did it in 12 seconds, you held your magic for the whole time I'm proud, and it looks like you're getting faster. I'd say you're almost at Mach One."
She gets back up very slowly, legs shaking
"That does not get easier."
"It will, in time. You just have to keep practicing."
He says grabbing one of the chocolates Ida brought back.
He puts it in his mouth but quickly spits it out.
Ida looks at him concerned.
"What's wrong?!"
He wipes his mouth after spitting out the chocolate
"This is dark chocolate, I'm deducting points."
Ida throws her hands up like she's innocent
"I couldn't find anything else I swear!"
Chrongrey chuckles
"Well, I'll let it slide for now..."
A large royal blimp can be seen overhead and catches Ida's eye.
"Whoa... what is that!"
Chrongrey looks up at it.
"It's that time of year again?"
"What do you mean?"
Ida says looking at him
Chrongrey raises his hand to his chin.
"I guess I've never had to tell you. Once a year the UWO does a ceremony that helps people without magic get magic from Mighty beings known as the Chyros."
Ida points upward with a realization."
"Oh, I know those guys they were in one of your super old books."
Chrongrey looks at her sternly
"What did I say about reading those."
Ida looks down, hands behind her back, and kicks a rock
"don't..."
Chrongrey looks back at the blimp as it enters a large purple ring
"That's right."
"I have a question I've been meaning to ask you..."
She says as she watches picking her head back up
Chrongrey looks at her awaiting the question
"Why don't you have other pupils of time magic, and just me?"
Chrongrey looks into the distance
"Unfortunately that is a conversation you aren't ready for yet..."
"You're always hiding stuff!"
She says crossing her arms
Chrongrey pats her on the head
"Ida look... There are things about this world that you couldn't even fathom, things that if I were to tell you about right now, you would call me a liar."
"I promise when the time comes, you will find out everything you need to know."
Ida nods in contempt
Chrongrey goes and picks up most of the groceries leaving Ida to carry the rest
"Ok, are you ready to head back? I'll make us up some pie."
She looks around to make sure she has her belongings then goes and grabs the remaining items.
"Yea!"
She says with excitement.
Chrongrey chuckles and throws down a purple crystal opening a portal
He lets Ida step through first then he follows with the portal closing behind them.
6:10pm - During the attack in Grizzly
Ida is at their kitchen table with a napkin around her neck and a fork and knife in hand chanting
"Pie! PIE! PIEEEE!
Chrongrey throws a plate at her but she ducks and it hits the wall behind her shattering
She gets back up slowly
Chrongrey comes to the table with a steaming pie
"I thought you would never hush up! I said it was ready multiple times!"
Ida chuckles.
"Sorry..."
As they prepare to eat a knock can be heard on the door
Chrongrey quickly turns to the door
"What in the gods?!"
Ida jumps up and gets into a fighting stance activating her magic
The door explodes open and a man in a high-tech black metallic armor walks through.
He looks around the interior as he enters, and settles his eyes on Chrongrey
"You know, For a man of your accumulated age, you would think someone would have any information about you."
His voice sounds malicious, as well as robotic from his armor.
He examines Chrongret and Ida
"See your only mistake was your little scourges. See, the girl leaves behind time magic residue whenever you go out, due to her lack of control. So I've yet to catch you in the act, but luckily I found something I can't normally find when I'm hunting you, the location of your portal, I can't ever find it in time, but I found the space magic residue and was able to trace the opposite ends location-."
He turns to Ida
"- to here."
Ida looks worried thinking it's her fault that this happened.
Chrongrey slams his staff on the ground and his eyes light up
Large Turquoise chains appear out of the air and wrap around the armored man while tightening, he's no longer moving.
Ida looks to Chrongrey
"Whoa how did you-"
Chrongrey taps his staff on the floor
And they are now down on the Lower level of the tower.
"How did you?..."
Ida says with her head spinning.
Chrongrey rushes over to the Rhombus Crystal that creates the barrier.
He puts his hand on the crystal and then it passes through.
Ida watches
Chrongrey pulls out a scroll that is locked with turquoise-colored chains.
Ida is shocked
"How much are you gonna hide from me!"
Chrongrey turns around looking at her
"There isn't time! My magic won't hold him long, I can already feel him escaping, Ida take this."
He hands her the scroll and calms his voice down.
"Remember how I told you earlier today that everything will happen when the time is right, well it looks like Time is ready for you."
Ida has a weary look on her face, she doesn't like where this is headed.
"What do you mean?"
Chrongrey smiles
"Protect that scroll, shall you use it and it will show you the way to fixing everything!"
Ida's voice is teary
"I- I don't understand why everything is happening so fast?! What's there to fix?! What's gonna happen?
A voice can be heard from the upper floors
"Where is the symphony?! I know you have it!"
Chrongrey looks upward
He already broke free, there's no choice I'll have to portal her out of here.
But where do I send her... where will I know she is safe...
Chrongrey closes his eyes and has a vision.
He opens his eyes and smiles.
So You've finally chosen someone after all this time...
If you decided to trust Him, Then so shall I.
Chrongrey grabs a Spacial Magic stone from his pocket
"Take care of yourself kiddo. I know you'll make the right decisions."
Chrongrey throws a magic stone behind Ida and it opens a portal.
The Man in Black finds them and sees the scroll in Ida's hands.
Chrongrey swings his staff into the barrier crystal causing it to shatter
The man in black looks at Chrongrey.
"YOU OLD FOOL!" he shouts
He rushes over to Ida, and his right arm molds into a blade.
But before he can attack, Chrongrey pushes Ida through the portal.
She slips through the portal, the scroll in one hand and the other reaching out to Chrongrey, tears run down her cheeks, thinking this is her fault that she may never see him again.
The portal closes.
The man in black looks over to Chrongrey
"Do you think an environmental factor can kill Me, Chronos!"
Chrongrey's face gets serious
"Not quite, but you shouldn't have the slightest knowledge of that."
The winds surround the tower crushing it beneath the pressure.
