Lyra returned as she had promised. Albis had everyone ready. “I am glad to see you trusted me. You will have everything you need on the other side of this portal, Xanther is there we have prepared homes ready for each of your families.”
“How can we ever repay you?” Albis asked in a grateful tone.
“Oh you will find a way I am sure.” Lyra smiled.
“Thank you again.” Albis nodded before being the last to walk through the portal.
Lyra let an evil smirk come across her face. “I was expecting you earlier, my Dear Sapphrine.”
The anger resonated off of Sapphrine. “What are you doing? You are not to interfere in my business.”
“What do you care? I took your rebellion away and now you can revel in your perfectly dull society.”
“Dull?!?! We are not Dull.”
“Are you not? You have no love, you have nothing left. You are just a cold hearted bitch Sapphrine.” Lyra provoked her.
The guardian queen’s staff began to glow. “I will teach you that I am not dull.”
“Ohh it looks like the little crystal queen has kept her anger. You know that is dangerous to keep unbalanced emotions?” Lyra taunted her harder.
Sapphrine growled, and she cast her most powerful spell against Lyra. A bright light of celestial fire consumed Lyra.
When the fire faded, The emerald eyed goddess just laughed with wicked intention. “You are going to have to do better than that if you wish to destroy part of Aldorian’s Soul! Shall I return the favor and use his magic against you?”
Sapphrine felt fear for the first time since she shed her feelings to the orb. “She knelt before her goddess of Neutrality. “Forgive me for my brash actions Lyra.”
“There is always a humbling effect to realize you are not as powerful as you think you are isn’t there?”
Sapphrine just growled and looked at the ground.
“That is so much better, now I have a mission for you.”
Without looking up she asked, “What can I do for you my Goddess?”
Lyra laughed, “You can aid me in The shattering of Nexus.”
“You want me to help you destroy your home?”
Lyra shrugged, “Not really I want you to break it not destroy it. Minor difference.”
Sapphrine stood up. “Right, Does Renaldo know?”
“No, it is our little secret. I just have plans and they can not happen until this happens.”
Sapphrine growled. “And just why should I go against Renaldo?”
“Oh well that is simple, You want Clandareth locked away? Where he can’t bother your people any more? Let me tell you the plan.”
“I am listening.”
