Chapter 111 by JZ01 JZ01

Very good question...

Maybe not such a good answer

"This armour, isn't any normal armour" Terra says with a shaky voice.

"What do you mean?" John asks, now worried that his words are coming back to bite him.

"This is the Armour of Xanvetl, The Angel of Battle" Lani explains.

"Hawd on lass" Greyr butts in, "Did you just say, Xanvetl? As in, the eldest brother to H'nod?".

Lani responds, "The one and the same".

Greyr is stunned, having to take a seat once again as his face is strewn with disbelief. Moray goes to his side as he asks, "Greyr, what's wrong?".

"What's wrong lad? What's wrong?! The damn armour is proof that Imoga survived!" Greyr exclaims with fear in every word.

The others are all confused and so Daffodil asks, "What'd ya mean ya auld fool? You just said naebody could've survived that explosion".

"Naebody who is living maybe. But after creating her army, Imoga wasn't really living anymore".

Greyr's words just make more questions than answers, so John decides to plainly ask, "But how does me having this mean that she survived?".

"Because ya big fanny, after that explosion, the entire island the academy was on was uninhabitable for an entire year. It took teams of mages from all over to cleanse the destroyed academy of the dark magic used but when they went down into the vault, that's when they saw that something was taken from an armour stand, that bloody armour!" Greyr explains.

"And unless there was another magister that was hidden somewhere, the only one powerful enough to survive that cloud of dark magic would be, Imoga" Lani says, seemingly believing Greyr's tale.

Amilia then steps up by saying, "Alright, so what? The old cows probably worm food by now anyway".

"Maybe not" Kyuala says before continuing, "If she came back to life after 20 years of being dead, what's stopping her from surviving another 50?".

"And that lass, that, is what worries me" Greyr grimly says as he just visibly shivers in fear.

John then looks at Kyuala with wide eyes before saying, "The bodies...".

"What bodies?" Moray asks.

"When we went back to the cave, all of the bodies practically disappeared. There wasn't even a blood trail to show where they were dragged or moved" Kyuala explains.

Terra then continues on, "At first, we just assumed it was a houndum lurking nearby that ate them buy if what you say is true, then we may have a big problem on our hands".

The room goes quiet again, everyone unsure of what to say but after a few moment, Daffodil says, "Ach! Probably just a coincidence. That houndum probably ate the bodies and liked the taste of flesh so it thought it'd come back for seconds. Now c'mon, we've got coin to make!".

Daffy grabs a bag and begins moving it toward the storefront while Lani just says, "Let's hope she's right".

"Aye, let's hope, and pray" Greyr says as the team get back to moving the gear.

Hope and Prayers? Sounds like a Christian rap duo...
