Chapter 3: The Stranger

“What are you doing here Selene?” Korsos asks her, “I could ask you the same thing, but i came here to learn about the history here” she replies, “What are you doing here?” She asks him, “I’ve come here to learn the history of the lands similar to you but for different reasons” he replies, “What were those things anyway?” Korsos asks her, “Supposedly they are the corrupted descendants of the Wendigo” she says to him, “The Wendigo? I thought they were wiped out?” he asks her, “They were but the gods decided to punish any related to the tribes for the wars, So the Dragon, Lycan, Wendigo relatives even if they were born without the powers were forced to live in their beast form and become mindless savages for all eternity” she says to Korsos’s question,

“But you are a Wendigo that can become a human again how?” she says inspecting Korsos, “I'm not sure yet, all i know is that i'm something that hasn’t lived until now” he says with a serious look in his eyes, “Besides that what can you tell me about the lands?” he says to Selene, “Well from what i learned is that there were four powerful tribes that used to live here Dragon, Lycan, Wendigo, and the other im not sure who or what they were” she says, “What do you mean Selene?” he asks her, “See these markings?” she says to him, “Yes” he replies, “It says “The four tribes that ruled these lands where shape-shifters capable of become their beast form and becoming human again” and if you look there is the name of the tribes and who they were, but there is a fourth, most of it is destroyed but from what is readable it says “------- Tribe, They were --------- large creatures and where a hidden tribe that could --------- and were said to be feared by the ones who knew they existed the tribe was known to place their young in other tribes to spread their numbers, In their human form they looked no different than from a regular person, but in their beast form they were dangerous creatures” she says reading what is still readable, “It was rumored this tribe was so powerful that the leader could single handedly take on all three other tribes, making this tribe a very scary opponent, but what’s odd is that it seems their tribe disappeared before the others” she says to Korsos.

“Odd, odd how?” Korsos says confused, “During the war there was a battle between the Dragon, Lycan, and Wendigo tribes but they killed each other by doing so, but there is nothing here saying how the other tribe did anything, But if this tribe was that powerful why would they not take advantage of this?” she says confused, Just then Korsos heard someone whisper in his ear “because they were afraid of my kind”, “What the hell?” Korsos says to himself, “What is it?” Selene asks Korsos in a concerned tone, “Nothing just thought i heard something” he says lying to her, “If you say so” she says still a little worried, “I’ll be back i need to get some air” he says leaving the cave, “Don’t worry Korsos i am a ally and your people’s lord” something says, “What are you?” Korsos says to the air, “I am a god like the others before i was outcasted because of my disciples” he says, “What do you mean?”, “Exactly what i'm saying, I bet you have never heard of Drunn god of the lost tribe” he says, “No i haven’t” Korsos replies, “That's because the other gods seen my kind as too dangerous and decided to wipe them out and erase any of their kind and then make sure no one knew me or them” he says, “Why they seem like they are looking out for the greater good” Korsos replies.

They head off west back to the Siren tribes once they arrive they leave the boat and head into the woods and go to the portal, “Stay here while i go in” Korsos says to Selene, she stays there as he heads in he goes into the murky water and is met with Behemoth again, “So mortal you found out what these lands use to be?” it says looking at him as water departs around Korsos, “Yes i learned that there was another tribe as well” Korsos says, “Ah yes the dangerous creatures that were said to be so strong the gods feared them” Behemoth says, “what must i do now?” Korsos says to the Behemoth, “Now you must find out where Belphegor is” the Behemoth replies, “How?” Korsos says, “Head north and look for the Fallen, they can help you” the Behemoth says, As Korsos leave the portal and heads to Selene, “What do we do now?” She ask him, “Now we head north and find the Fallen” He replies, “Who are the fallen?” She asks him, “From what Behemoth had said they were once Angels before going to far and straying from their god and he punished them, by making them no longer a holy being” Korsos replies.
