Hey guys it's me again, sorry for the long break, I was on vacation in the Bahamas. Anyway there is an important thing happening. Etez is making his own fiction *claps*. It will be in a few weeks, but this also means that I will now have to split my attention between writing this and editing Etez’s fic. As will he, so my uploads will slow even further because I'm already a slow ass writer.

Back 2 third person. Deal with it.

Asiz shivered. There was an ominous tinge on the air. He could feel a pair of eyes trained on him, but could not locate their owner.

He created a small fireball in the palm of his hands and held it up in front of him.

‘I've got to find a way out of this cave before the thing that lives in this cave attacks me.’

Asiz turned around only to be met with a pair of large red eyes.

“HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!”

The fireball in Asiz's hand surged forward at the figure behind him.but before it impacted, the fireball stopped in mid air. It imploded in on itself and dissapeared into a single point in the air.

Asiz was plunged into darkness once more. The red eyes stared inquisitively at him through the darkness.

A feminine voice rang out through the cave.

“I haven't had company in a long time.Would you like some tea?”

A ball of light flew up into the air revealing a scantily dressed woman crouching on on top of a rock. 

Her skin is the color of caramel, even after being shut off from the sun for who knows how long. She has messy silver hair that reaches down to her legs, and drags across the wet ground as she moves. Her body was very beautiful with only the dirty ruminants of a beautiful dress covering her important spots in a cave-woman fashion.

Asiz noticed that she had long pointed ears that jutted upwards from the side of her head.

‘An elf?’

The ‘elf’ woman not waiting for Asiz to speak hobbled Down from the rock on all fours and brought out a few poorly made stone mugs. She clambered over to the side of the small pond and dipped the cups into the black water, filling them up.

She created a small fireball with her hands and heated the water. While muttering to herself.

“No Mylord, no. Oh we can't send away our honored guest can we, maybe he can help us remember.”

Asiz tilted his head to the side. And stepped towards her.

“Help you remember what?”

The woman looked towards Asiz with a confused look on her face. 

“Remember what?”

“You were just saying something about me helping you remember something.”

The woman's red eyes lit up. 

“Yes, yes you must help us remember our mission.”

Asiz was confused.

“Our mission? But  besides me and you there is no one else here.”

The woman's face was bright with happiness and she opened her mouth revealing slightly pointed canines.

“Yes our mission. Me and….”

She put her finger to her lip and closed her eyes for a moment. Before opening them up again. She looked even more confused than before.

“Oh it seems as though I have forgotten.”

The woman grabbed some foul looking plant from a hole in the rock and smashed it to a pulp with a rock before putting it into the boiling cups of water.

“Yes, yes boil the tea.” She hummed.

Asiz sat down on a small rock while keeping a close eye on his surroundings to make sure he was safe. But it seemed as though there was nothing else alive in the cave with him besides the forgetful cave elf.

“What did you forget miss.”

The woman snapped her head towards him, and he could feel an icy aura surrounding her. 

“I would never forget anything master told me, Worm. Do you know who I am!”

Asiz could tell that this woman was as volatile as an active volcano and was probably as mentally stable as one as well. In other words she was unpredictable and dangerous.

“And.. What did your master tell you.”

The icy aura instantly disappeared and the woman went back to preparing her tea while smiling to herself.

“My lord said that if any travelers arrived, weary from their travels. I should welcome them into my home and make them a cup of tea using the ingredients he left me and once they reach the bottom of the cup. Then they will help me remember my mission.”

Finally finished concocting her tea the woman crabbed the stone mug and thrusted it towards Asiz.

Asiz took the cup from her hands. And held it with both of his allowing the liquid inside to warm his fingers. He glanced curiously at the liquid inside.

It was a murky brown color. And had a strange scent to it. Curious to see why the woman's master had wanted someone to drink the tea. He took a sip.

It was sweet. The flavor and scent intoxivated Asiz. And soon he found himself swimming in a see of colors. His head was floating above it all on a fluffy white cloud. Soon Asiz's eyes drooped closed and he fell into a drug induced sleep.

-----

“Huh?”

Asiz couldn't see. He felt weightless.

“What is this? Where am I!”

Suddenly Asiz was floating over a swamp. A dark big as far as the eye could see with black water and bleak grey clouds.

The bogs swampy ground however, was littered with corpses. Dark skinned elvish Men and women wearing menacing black armor laid alongside human men and women wearing silver and gold plated armor.

Crowd gathered to feast on the dead. And vultures circled overhead.

At the center of the abandoned battlefield was a woman. She was wearing the black plated armor and could be identified as an elf.

Before her was a regal looking man, he was a human and sported the same gold and silver armor as his fallen comrades.

He coughed up blood and fell to his knees.

The woman put her hand on the hilt of her curved black steel scimitar and drew it from its hilt.

“Youve doomed us all. The forces of evil will decimate our world and many others because of you.”

The woman's eyes narrowed. She spoke with an accent that rolled off the tongue like waves.

“You are the only one that has been doomed.  You lead your armies through my homelands thinking that you would subjugate us under your will. You were wrong. I will send your head back to your bitch of a queen and continue living for those that fell today to protect our sovereignty.”

The woman lifted up her sword and swung down.

“Darkness will consum-”

SHRRKK

The man's head dropped and squelched into the mud.

The woman wiped the blood from her sword and placed it in its sheath. She glanced back at the body of the man one last time and walked away.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

The memory distorted and black mist swirled around the edges of Asiz's vision.

The scene changed Asiz was back in the cave. But this time it looked different there were torches hung around the walls and in the center of the black lake there was a tall rock. And on top of that rock, the same woman from the previous vision was chained. She was battered and bruised. But every time she pulled on one of the chains it would creak and pull as though it would snap.

Her eyes burned with hatred and she screamed in annoyance. 

In front of her was a large formless mass. From within it 2 Opal colored eyes shined. A deep voice emanated from the cloud.

“TRAITOR! I leave you to rot in this cave for an eternity!”

The woman laughed madly.

“Go back to the abyss and lick your wounds, you have no power here anymore. If you stay the gods will hunt you down and destroy you forever!”

The cloud let out a bombing laugh. 

“You don't know what you have done girl. This isn't the only place I have dominion of. This is barely even a loss for me!”

The cloud imploded on itself and disappeared. The woman let out a sigh and her body slackened against the chains. Her arms were held up by the chains and she lay there hanging with her eyes closed.

Asiz watched and an eternity passed. He watched her.. Hanging there for thousands.. No hundreds of thousands of years. He saw her grow thin and her hair grow messy as time passed.

The woman cried out and Asiz saw as a bright light emanated from her forehead. 

“I shall not sit here idly. Within this stone I put my sanity, my memories and my identity.”

A small purple stone emerged from her forehead and fell to the floor.

“I Slitheria Norna Fergen queen of the Azora Fergen race cede my soul to the stone of fergen in order to keep my personality safe.”

A blue ball of light exited Slitheria’s mouth and entered into the purple stone.

The light within Slitheria's eyes was replaced by an insane broken one and she was left cackling crazily.

Many more years passed and The once proud queen of dark elves was reduced to a psychotic messy haired woman who began to speak to herself about nothing and ramble on about meaningless things. And the whole time the purple stone sat in front of her providing the only bit of light in the dark cave. The mad woman began to worship the stone and regard it as her God.

Time speed up again and Asiz watched Slitheria for thousands of years. And then, finally time slowed to its regular pace once more.

It was just another regular day. Slitheria was whispering to herself and staring into the purple light of the stone. When a noise rang throughout the cave.

A man shrouded in darkness stepped over the rocks and approached the her.

He stopped in front of her and looked at her for a moment. Then he stooped down and looked at the purple stone while in a squatting position.

At this point Slitheria was staring at the stone with a vacant expression. 

The cloaked figure reached down and grabbed the stone.

Slitheria's red eyes widened. And she looked up as the man put his hands on his knees and lifted himself off the ground. Tears glistened In her eyes.

“M my lord, you have come!”

“Yes Slither I have come. And I have something for you to do.”

He reached his hand above his head. And wind whipped around it forming a small cyclone. Lightning crackled inside the mini tornado. In his hand formed a broadsword that seemed to be made of lightning itself. The blade was grey and clouds could be moving inside of it. While lightning crackled out.

“I free you from your chains!”

He swiftly swung the sword down and broke the chains that had bound their prisoner for thousands of years.

The chains cracked and tinkled as they fell to the ground heavily.

The man opened his Hand and the sword dissipated.

Slitheria crawled on her knees and prostrated in front of him.

The man reached into some unknown crevice in his cloak and pulled from it, A bundle of very familiar herbs.

“I have a mission for you my dear.”

“YES YES ANYTHING FOR YOU MY GOD!”

The man nodded in agreement.

“Yes yes very good. Now don't forget these words.”

He then crushed the purple stone. A small blue ball of light flew out, and before it could escape the man grabbed it and stuffed it into the herbs. He then sprinkled the purple dust of the stone over the herbs.

“Take these herbs, and put them in the shelf of that Boulder. Keep them hidden from sight until a traveler comes.”

He handed the herbs to Slitheria.

“When a traveler arrives boil water and pour it into these goblets.”

He waved his hands and some of the dark mist which shrouded his appearance transmuted into a pair of beautiful jewel encrusted goblets. And though they looked very different Asiz could tell they were the same pair that he and Slitheria had drink tea from before he passed out.

“Steep the herbs into tea using these goblets as your cups. You must both drink from the goblets. This is the most important part, YOU MUST BOYH DRINK FROM THE GOBLETS. Do you understand?”

“Yes my lord this one shall remember even if I must wait a million years.”

“Good.” Said the man. His body then turned to mist and he was gone.

When he vanished Slitheria took the goblets and the herbs and put them on the rock shelf as the man had instructed.And began to explore the cave.

Asiz's vision suddenly changed and he couldn't see anything.

He felt the cold ground on the back of his head.

He lifted himself up into a sitting position. 

“Uhhgg what happened.”

He then heard a beautiful voice. The same one he had heard several times in his visions.

“Ahh I'm sorry, please allow me to explain.”

Asiz's eyes snapped open and I above him was a woman. She looked beautiful her olive skin shined with a purple tinge, her silver hair shimmered in the dim light of the cave, and most of all her red eyes were now free of madness. 

She stretched out her hand, offering for Asiz to take it.

“Nice to meet you.I am Slitheria Norna Fergen, Queen of the Bog Elves, and your new traveling companion. Please take good care of me.”

Hey it's me again. Just had a little note I wanted to say. I know it seems like all of the things happening are unrelated and my plot is really messy. But I swear it's not you just can't see the full picture yet
