City of the goddess of light, 12:05 at night.
Every step that the huge colossus took in the lake created tremors in the earth and water, the footsteps of the creature could also be felt as tremors in the city of the goddess of light which alerted the soldiers and put on alert the city since they thought that the great dark dragon had made itself present and was heading towards the city.
A soldier was running in the street going to the palace that was in the city with the intention of informing the king of the tremors, but this was stopped immediately by the two guards who were in the front door of the palace.
"What's going on, soldier, is everything in order?" The guard asked in a curious way when he saw the guard of the city tower sweating and agitated.
"The tremors! The tremors are steps, The steps of the dark dragon, I must inform our majesty!!" The guard said trying to catch his breath, but he only received laughter from the soldiers which made him even more angry.
"I must inform our Majesty of the presence that is in the lake! The great dark dragon is emerging from the lake, I have just seen it come out of the water!" The soldier explained the strange figure that emerged from the lake where the present sunken city was, but this one had really been confused and the creature that had been awakened was currently a colossus that was not as dangerous as the dragon, but even so it was a danger which should be eliminated.
The guards blocked the passage of the soldier with their bodies and spears and a female voice was heard inside the palace.
"Leave the boy." A woman was present through the door with a ghostly form which was part of a spell.
"Follow me, soldier, I want you to explain to me in detail what you saw." The woman told the boy while he was following her closely.
"Yes my lady, I am afraid that very recently I was able to observe from the tower a strange creature that emerged from the depths of the lake, the tremors are the footsteps of that creature! What should we do ?!" The soldier began to shake more and more until the woman began to speak again.
"If what you say is true, probably the cult of Artham has had something to do with the awakening of this creature, for now we must evacuate the city, I do not know how long it takes for the creature to arrive in the city, but it will be better to be ready, now go, inform the other soldiers to begin the evacuation of the city. " The woman said making her ghost shape change to human by showing her voluptuous body and attributes through her tunic.
The soldier at that moment ran away while that woman remained silent looking at the moon talking to herself.
"May the goddess protect us from this creature." The woman said joining her hands and praying to the moon.
The city quickly became in total chaos with the news of the appearance of a huge creature emerging from the lake which was heading towards the kingdom, most of the inhabitants of the kingdom were put on alert beginning to run terrified through the streets taking his valuables and preparing to leave the city before the creature reached them.
"It had been a long time since I saw the city in such chaos, our majesty is intrigued by the creature of the lake because it does not look like the dark dragon, my lord, we must prepare to fight." A soldier without a helmet and with a tired appearance said, remembering that day that the dark dragon descended in the city.
"You're right, we have to prepare, come on, everyone needs to be ready!" A young person with a crown and an armor decorated with gold and silver said raising his sword in the air.
"Listen carefully to all the soldiers, come closer!" The person in extravagant armor said, drawing the attention of all the soldiers who were present.
"Maybe we're all going to die tonight, I just want to tell you, it's not cowardly to leave, those who want to leave do it now, before you all die here." The young king said holding his sword.
The soldiers looked at each other confused until one of them spoke loudly.
"We are soldiers, we were born to kill and to die for our people, If we die tonight, so be it!" The soldier's voice made everyone else raise their swords, presenting the same desire to fight.
The soldiers dispersed quickly bringing siege machinery to the streets of the city and preparing it that was in the wall of the city waiting to fight against the creature, meanwhile the same woman who had left the palace was observing the lake, while she was levitating above the roof of the watchtower.
"The creature is slow, it will probably take a long time to get here, at least it gives us time to evacuate the people." The woman said observing the lake and then observing the streets that were full of frightened citizens and soldiers excited to fight the creature.
"Majesty, the magicians are ready to fight, you just have to wait for the creature to arrive." A young man in a dark robe and a metal staff with a red crystal on top of this said.
"Good job, but I think it would be better if we evacuate the city, the creature is slow and probably the secret refuge gives us time until this creature moves away, and then we can rebuild again." The young king said explaining a new plan to the military magician.
"Majesty...are you afraid?" The magician said.
"No, I want to prevent people from dying unnecessarily, look at them, everyone has the opportunity to leave, but they decide to stay and fight against something that we clearly do not know what it's capable of doing." The King said pointing to people running to leave while the soldiers were preparing.
The city can be rebuilt, the lives of these people can not, for that reason, I think fleeing would be the best, for everyone. "The king said.
"Majesty, I will go where you go and fight what you fight." The magician said showing his respect for the king.
"Call the most powerful magicians, archers and soldiers of the city, we will go out to confront that creature, I will not let it reach the city." The king said, showing himself more determined to protect the city, his city.
"Yes, Majesty, if you'll excuse me, I'll go prepare everything." The magician disappearing with a teleportation spell.
"...Father, protect these good people." The king said watching the moon and the sorceress who was on the watchtower.

Cult of Artham, 12:50 at night.
"Great master, I am afraid that our three hunters have just perished, while seeking the last heart necessary for the invocation." A person covered by a black robe appeared from the darkness speaking to another who was praying to a book illuminated by a couple of candles in front of an altar.
"Three brothers have died tonight and have met with the great god Artham, there is no need to feel sad at this time, young apprentice, there is still a long time to find that person with a pure heart and without malice." The person said without moving from his position.
"Yes, great teacher, there is still a long time, allow me to leave, I must attend to the affairs of ours other brothers and teachers." The young man said retiring from the room.
"The world is changing fast." Said the man in the dark continuing his prayer to the book.
