*IN THAYDE KINGDOM*
 
So this means that you will see more than what you may think? A lord asked.Look, all I ask is that you join Goddess Maria's
forces, it's only a simple contract of obligation, and it pays more than you think. Tara said. I'm not buying into what you
have for me, because I know that what you plan in mind is of evil doing. I have no partakes in either side, but Ramashina and
I are friends, but if you want me to provide you information with anonymous sources, you're going to have to take a oath of good
and not the same communist oath that got some of your people to later go against you, so I best recommend that you pay up a contract
and sign a oath if you want me to provide you information. Lord Harris said.
 
Take his word Tara... Makasida said.
 
 
  THE MAIDEN'S FLAME
  CASE NUMBER: 9414417882
  JAMES DAREN HARRIS
 
 
What is it you are looking at? Sire Pham asked. My title. Matriarch Liena replied. If I wasn't mentored by one of Goddess Maria's
patriarchs after my false death to my father, I would of never gotten this title. But now look how far it has gotten me to. First
thing, the War of Conquest, a event in which war with demons is involved against all the kingdoms and the kingdoms had to work together
in order for them to survive. Many died, but some made it through, and a lot of events turned, even my father lived and I had to learn
before I was kidnapped and before my father was banished. Then years later, Patriarch Zerus, Daria's father leaves, and the war of destruction
begins, and Tara uses Sage Ellis for the deeds of her own, she then gets killed. And after that, the War of Candra, it's the war that takes
away Tara's immortality, and makes her mortal. Then all of this begins... Tara turns herself in to Goddess Maria, when her fate was unknown
to us and we thought she was dead, and we didn't know how she survived, and she warns the Sages about a list of people, and a person, her two
sisters die, Maria's sister takes over Candra later, because her mortal life isn't enough for her to rule her kingdom without her sisters. After
she then joins Goddess Maria, she is under strict supervision, because if she betrays her, she'd be removed from existence or banished. Many more
new people appear, Matriarch Armahana, one of Tara's best friends, Destroyer Gracela, the one who saved Tara and her sisters from being enslaved
and sold. But it doesn't make anything clear to me... Someone rescued my father out of Goddess Maria's banishment domain, but I don't seem to
know who got him set free to kill thousands, and then later destroy many of the most powerful people, including my mentor, when he trained me,
and if he didn't, I would of not had gotten my title in the first place. But what I don't understand is why my father ordered Gardal's death
in the first place, when I knew he was being targeted. Liena said.
 
Where were you after your father escaped? Sire Pham asked.
 
I was at a job working at a bar in Halivan kingdom, in which it was when I first met Count Macavich, one of Goddess Maria's mortals. He taught
me his ways of dark magic, I learned my ways of weapons from Gardal and some of them from my father. I learned my magic from both Count Macavich
and my father's dark magic, and it was known that my father carried two of the most powerful curses that could kill people very easily, but I knew
more than just that due to the teachings and due to Count Macavich, he recovered some of my past memories and brought them back to me, allowing me
to remember my magic spells back, including banishment and death magic. Many things go a long way and yet I have so many more to figure out for myself
before I will be able to trust anyone else my life and immortal power that I have. Matriarch Liena said.
 
I could say more, but I wish not to burden myself and my patriarch mentor, so it's best I not have you ask me any further questions. Liena said.
 
Who is your "patriarch mentor", if it won't hurt you to ask me who he is? Sire Pham said, ignoring her request.
 
"You really want to know so much... Is this what you really seek? I can tell by that power that you have. It is only nothing
compared to mine. It is only a telepathic message I am simply communicating through you, as I do not want to mention it to
anyone else and I tend to keep it that way, not to have Goddess Maria's sages or Tara's forces to know. But since I have faith
in you, you do promise to keep your loyalty with Goddess Maria as much as I do rather than to Tara". Liena telepathically communicated
to him.
 
If you really do want to know... I'll tell you who he is. "Patriarch Gardal, Patriarch of weapon mastery". Liena told him.
 
*Sire Pham looks at Matriarch Liena in surprise, mentioning his name*
 
Him... You know him?! But how? We were long time friends, and I even saw him while he was battling Goddess Maria's forces, even
though he was a pretty taunting and powerful two handed warrior and after he resigned, he chose to work for Thayde's investigation
agencies, what happened to him? Sire Pham asked her.
 
My father ordered his death along with several others, Annie Saracento, Patriarch Gardal, and a few others, including Makasida as
well. During the events, I lost several of my friends who worked in Halivan as well due to his sins and wrongs, I felt like I was
wronged and felt like I have only myself to blame, but I couldn't find answers to who ordered my friends to be killed or infected
with powerful viruses and diseases. I could not reason with my father or forgive him, but the only thing that would make things right
is to allow those to rest in peace and kill my father near the end. Matriarch Liena told him.
 
But why the cape and all that power that you possess? How did you learn to do such? Did you learn it yourself or did your
father teach it to you? Sire Pham asked.
 
I believed you answered the question for yourself. Liena replied.
 
*Later, at Lyneria Daelin Malachina knocks on Dame Garmasha's door, and she answers*
 
Daelin! Long time no see, it has been thousands of years since I've seen you and Ramashina. What's been going on
as of late? Garmasha asked, and invites him in.
 
So what's been going on as of late for you? I've missed you for thousands of years and yet I have no word from you
ever since. What's been going on? Garmasha asked.
 
I know what you're up to Aria. I know who you work for, so you best go and-
 
*Dame Aria transforms into a demon and stabs Daelin in the heart*
 
What a fool... Any last words for your antagonizing death? It was a nice try trying to betray me and my friendship
by spitting blood near my soul. But you know what? Your soul would be rather enjoyable than having a visible body around,
so I'll be taking your soul and then destroy the body, any last words? Dame Aria asked, before taking the soul of Daelin.
 
*Aria summons a blue aura around her and uses her tattoed demonic flame arm to take the soul of her victim*
 
That was nice enough for me to consume your soul... Even though blood is on my name between both sides, I do hope you will
enjoy the flaming cold death once I burn the body of yours up and make it look like a accident eventually, but don't worry,
I will promise you, your death and my secrets between the two to keep my alignment neutral will stay safe, but I got to go
now and take your body with me. Dame Garmasha said, undoing her transformation and teleporting into a graveyard, leaving
blood behind.
 
*Later, where Tara is at Candra, speaking to Mazara*
 
Mazara, do you know who this person is? Tara asked, with Makasida and Lexia around.
 
*Mazara sees a picture of a demonic sorceress*
 
This is a odd picture, I don't know who it could be. How did you get it though? Mazara asked.
 
Ariela had the picture archived into a folder and I didn't know what it would be or who it could be, but
could you identify who it is or have a database on who it could be? Tara asked.
 
Unfortunately, it is best that you ask Matriarch Armahana or you ask Matriarch Liena, my head is still in
some pain from Liena levitating me and almost trying to kill me the other day, but consider that if I would
of had my memories back, then I would of been able to help you. Mazara said.
 
*Tara goes to Armahana in Maria's domain, while Makasida and Lexia look for Liena. Liena's door is locked,
presuming that she is not there*
 
Armahana! Armahana! Where are you at? Tara yelled.
 
Her room is locked as well, and she isn't here. Where could she be as well? She never leaves Lyneria's castle
and we can't find either her or Liena, even Sire Pham and Maria aren't here as well.
 
*A demon is seen in the Faeratos dungeon, with Armahana held prisoner*
 
That's the same demon I have just seen in the picture... Tara said with Makasida.
 
That same demon? If you're referring to that same demon, you might not remember me from
when you fought Lord Thamashi and you fought Zanakarus. The demon said.
 
You're one of those kinds of demons Matriarch Liena can summon, but the arm drawing, it's
not the same color as her summoning... Tara said.
 
You're exactly right. I'm here to leave a message, and I will set Armahana free because I know
you well. Take my warning carefully. It will not be too late for you to decide where your path is
taking you and the rest of those you love Tara. The demon said.
 
Just who do you think you are? Let her go! Tara ordered.
 
Tara... Listen to her, she's saying something.
 
*The demon grabs the body of a operative in which his soul was taken from*
 
A operative of Ramashina's? Tara looking in shock.
 
It seems so, how do you know all of us and how did you get in here in the first place? Makasida asked.
 
There is no time for questions. Goddess Maria isn't here right now, I have already killed one of the operatives
for you and took his soul. If you don't do as I tell you, you will see yourself blamed for murder and other criminal
charges, or even worse face Goddess Maria's punishments.
 
"That is what Ramashina's things are. She likes to see people suffer, even those who are evil in heart as well, no
matter what the reason. When one is weaker than the other, she will attempt to go after them unaware, just like she
did with me to test who I was loyal to". The demon said.
 
You don't remember who I am, take the key that is on the dead body, and release Armahana, but do not attack. The demon
instructed.
 
*Tara releases Armahana*
 
*The demon transforms back to her original form*
 
This is one of Maria's forces! Why are you trying to sabotage us in the first place? Tara asked.
 
Because I am here to show you what Ramashina does to people and her victims. She lies, and in Goddess
Maria's forces, she will take people hostage who know her very well and then interrogate them to death while
they are forced to give in, I know you do the same to people who go against you Tara, even Liena's father does
the same as well. Take this seriously, because if you don't, it will happen to Maria's forces, and it could
happen to those you love.
 
It is better that you face it and know what you are going to encounter, because one of her operatives was spying on
me that I once knew thousands of years ago, and after we had a small chat, he knew that he was planning to tell
Ramashina I worked for Goddess Maria and leak the truth from me. Even though I will make clear admittance to the truth,
I work for Goddess Maria, and I plan to keep this information secret, not to allow it to be opened up to anyone but you
and your allies, but if any information is leaked, I will have no choice but to oppose everyone who comes in my path, I
will warn you all. Dame Garmasha told them.
 
Destroy the body. Garmasha instructed them, and she teleports away.
 
*Lord Harris looks at the barrier protected domain of Ramashina's and captures evidence*
 
You know how well this information can be released. Tara is taking in the easy way, but Liena has somewhat done enough
injury to Maria's sister that she can't help her in any way, so I have benefit to break in Lyneria, but there isn't enough
strength of forces to get in.
 
Hey look! There's a traitor of ours on his way to aid Lyneria's forces with some evidence! One of Ramashina's troops said.
 
Then kill him. Don't let anything get to Tara! Ramashina ordered.
 
*Lord Harris rides quickly to Lyneria, but the forces of the PLO come after him, and Matriarch Liena
witnesses them*
 
Get back Sire Pham, I'll take care of this... Matriarch Liena said.
 
* A arrow is shot at Lord Harris, and Matriarch Liena darkens the sky with her magic, sending
meteors to destroy the area*
 
*Sire Pham activates a dark barrier that shields his body*
 
He's shot dead! We're too late, we hope the evidence is available for Tara.
 
*Ramashina's forces die from the magic, and Liena and Sire Pham go toe to toe with Ramashina*
 
It seems like this is the wrong day and case to go for, isn't it? Liena asked. You have no idea
who you're up against. Ramashina said.
 
Oh do I? Then let's find out then!
 
*Liena summons demons to fight Ramashina and she clashes with her, while Ramashina uses a shield to
deflect the attacks*
 
Not that bad... Ramashina said.
 
*Sire Pham summons two spirits that attacks Ramashina from behind*
 
*Ramashina kills the demons, and then Sire Pham animates their body*
 
How nice... I never seen someone with such dark power like you. Ramashina taunted.
 
*Liena uses her blade and fights Ramashina, using her energy shield as a source of magic power*
 
*Ramashina fires a curse to Liena, but it doesn't work*
 
Not bad... Not bad. Seems like you can't be hit with magic.
 
*Liena empowers Sire Pham with invulnerability and he enlaces a dagger of poison into Ramashina,
and he strikes her in the neck with the dagger*
 
A matriarch of powerful and destructive magic... That is what Goddess Maria calls you... You both will
soon find the truth, but it will take more than that to defeat me! Ramashina yelled.
 
*Ramashina summons a starstorm of meteors, and Liena creates a magic barrier to protect her and Sire
Pham while the poison is damaging Ramashina*
 
You two are so lucky, but consider yourself lucky enough that you have a dead ally who defected to
your side, so consider war will be waging soon near the pending timeline for the next million years
I will live. Ramashina said, as she teleports away with the dead troops.
 
Lord Harris! Lord Harris! No... Stay with us... Don't die on us! Tara said, yelling out at the dead body
of Lord Harris.
 
*The sages rush out to see the death of Lord Harris*
 
How can this ever happen? Sage Evelyn asked.
 
I am wondering the same thing too, but we were too late to protect him from being killed by her orders,
but don't worry, even though we cannot revive him back to life, I have only a small fragment of words
that will justify what we must do to avenge his death:
 
Justice will be done. Sage Kairne said.
 
It is not common to mention out that it will be hard for all of us to remember what he has done for us
in the past, just like what Daria did, but his body will not be erased from existence under my orders, but
what I will order now that I've seen it is that he will be buried with those that we will forever remember.
 
Do not forget what he has done for all of us in the hard times, my sages, do not forget what he has done
for the town he used to rule in as well. Goddess Maria said.
 
Matriarch Liena and Sire Pham took on Ramashina and her troops, and she fled away after a bit, but the
two survived from death. Tara said.
 
That is impressive, even though I didn't expect Ramashina to run away from such a incident, she did
have someone assassinated and could of killed another one of my people, but I would be out for fighting
her and making sure she pays for the death of my people if she declares war on my people. Maria said.
 
Though I will not take this unforgivable action lightly towards what was done as of today as well, and I
will follow Goddess Maria until the end. Liena said.
