The caravan ride took hours, the snow slowly turned to rain as we left Nulara, we could see the bad black weather from the distance.

Cortez and Elisa were sleeping, Elisa was leaning on my shoulder.

“Tell me, Sky” Odin broke the silence of rain, wind and creaking wood.

“Yeah?” I turned my face towards Odin.

“You think we will be fine? I mean, the weather over there it seems rather scary.”

“Guess we will just wait and see, hehe, don’t be afraid…” I kind of let my memories slip as I thought of the weather back on the real earth. 

Black rain and sky, thunder and storms. Nothing I am not used to, Odin probably don’t know how bad the weather got back on Earth, and maybe it’s better that way.

Odin calmed down a bit as he gazed out on the surroundings.

The place around us was really muddy, the rain was pouring down, we were getting closer, I could even see the mountain a few clicks away.

“Hold on boys and girls! It will just get worse from here on out! Haha!” 

The caravan rider was a crazy, but funny, he was sitting in front with only a raincoat while steering two really tamed horses.

Not sure if the horses are programmed to be so tamed or if he is really that good of a tamer.

Odin exhaled heavily as he got a bit scared again.

*BANG!*

A huge lightning bolt struck down right next to us!

Everyone jumped in their seats, even I skipped a heartbeat!

Cortez randomly made karate moves with his hands.

“Who is there? Humf, hjaaa!..... ohh” His sudden realization when he fully woke up.

“What was that?!” Elisa was scared and jumped my arm.

“Its fine, it’s just a little thunder” as she cooled off she realized she was clinging to my arm in front of Odin and Cortez, then she backed of blushing.

“We are getting closer, let’s all be prepared for more lightni---?!”

*BANG!*

Another lightning bolt struck right next to us again and everyone jumped in their seats again and I was cut off middle sentence!

The caravan quickly stopped and we almost fell out of the seats!

“What is going on!” I opened the door to check, there was an old man in the middle of the road with only a thin robe around him.

“Get out of the road!” The driver was yelling.

I went over to the old man.

“pfft, he just came out of nowhere”

“You alright?” I crouched down to get a better look at him as he was sitting in the middle of the road.

“c-c-cold!”

I took him with us into the caravan.

Everyone seemed a bit shocked to see him, no wonder.

“Tell me, what were you doing in the middle of the road?”

“They came for us, it all happened so quickly it was d-d-dark and –“

“Take it easy, start from the beginning”

The old man took a deep breath.

“I work at the mine transport, but we were attack by some dark wraiths, they are probably still there! I don’t know how many of us survived.

A quest appeared in front of me on a little hud, as well as the others.

“We are heading there now, we can probably deal with the wraiths, and how many were there?”

“About 20, I am not sure”

“Are you sure you want to go back there?” Elisa Odin asked.

“I have to go back, I have to see if my friends are ok.”

Lightning bolt into a transition.

*Bang!*

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“I can see the wraiths from here, stay here, we will come back when the coast is clear, ok?”

“Thank you, save my friends if you see them! Please!”

“You can count on us!” Odin said as he left the caravan first

His courage overweigh his fear it seems.

“I will get on top of the wagon and shoot at the wraiths while keeping you safe, hehe” Cortez gave him a thumbs up.

“I will stay here, I am not really good in fights like this, wish I had some poison gear so I could help in fights.”

“Hey, what is that up there, ghosts? Whaa!”

The rider got scared and jumped back to us.

I took a hold of him and pushed him gently into the wagon.

“Fine, keep them safe”

“Here, drink this”

Elisa gave the old miner something to drink.

I closed the door, the rain was pouring down and the lightning could be seen flashing all around us, mostly from the distance.

The place in front of us was crawling with wraiths, high skinny dark entitis with claws and and no face, just a hood. Cortez was the first to attack with a fire arrow!

“Wow, did you level up?” Cortez was holding another burning arrow in his hand and his face was glowing in the rain and he had a crazy look on his face.

“Yeah baby!” He drew his bow again, but it seemed as if he only had limited fire arrows.

I entered stealth and my new cooldown ability with the stealth subclass was disappear, the ability to go back to stealth when in combat, with a long cooldown ofcourse.

I started slashing up some wraiths as my stealth went off.

“Guys check this out”

Odin shoved both his blades into the ground and he started emitting a dark red aura like Enmy did earlier. 

He leveled up on the dragon fight earlier like Cortez.

“Wow!, I feel so fast, strong, and invincible!”

Odin went mad!

“Take this and this and this!” He was jumping around with incredible speed and force! His gear isn’t even top notch but still he kills the wraiths with ease.

“Go Odin, mess them up!” Cortez was cheering for Odin.”

I almost got hit in the back by a wraith as I didn’t pay to much attention to anything else but Odin.

I managed to turn around and kill it.

Cortez was still shooting arrows from the wagon. 

We managed to kill all the wraiths, then some miners came running out of the little outhouse next to the mountain.

“Thank you for saving us!”

“Alfred is that you?” The old man from the wagon noticed his friend from afar.

“Joseph, you made it!”

“Joseph told us about the situation, we were on our way here to use the transportation to the thunder plains.”

“We can get it up and running in no time, your ride will be free of charge!”

Joseph went back with his coworkers into the mountain.

Odin fell down on his bum.

“I feel so dizzy”

I went over to him and reached my arm out for him.

“Thanks” Odin grabbed my hand as I pulled him up.

“Well done, can’t believe how quick you were.”

The power was turned back on and then we could see this huge platform that was our transportation.

We headed over to it and got ready for our travel.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“No chairs or anything?” Elisa was spectating the platform we were standing on.

There was nothing on the platform to hold on to.

“Stay safe on the other side!” Joseph with his mining outfit waved us farewell as the platform started moving at a swift velocity!”

“waah!” Elisa was screaming.

“Wooohoo!” Cortez was enjoying the speed.

Odin put his hand in front of his mouth not to puke.

Celia, I’m on my way!
