Chereads / Demon Guardian in the Multiverse / Chapter 41 - Fortress Adamant

Chapter 41 - Fortress Adamant

The next day Logan appears in the middle of the room and Alistair as well as his guest got a scare for their life. "What are you doing haven't you heard of a door," says Alistair and Logan says, "It's hard to pinpoint when you are in another dimension and have to return back its easier that way." Lying his way through thinking 'That face was priceless.'

"So you returned aren't you a bit late?" asks Alistair sending his guest away with a hand sign and Logan says, "Your son wanted to keep training so I trained him an extra year he now is 14 years now so don't get scared because he grew a bit. I even had to make his fifth sword heavier every time he was able to handle it." "Why did you never do that to us?" asks Alistair and Logan says, "Because I got these things after killing the Archdemon do you know when my eyes began to bleed and my tail grew." "Alright." "Now it would be best not to touch him since he needs to adapt to his new strength for a week he might break things like everyone in my family after a training session," says Logan and Alistair says, "Fine but where is he?" "Hey I wanted to warn you first before something happens," says Logan and Duncan appears in almost destroyed clothes and a sword in hand and attacked Logan who blocks with his hand while the floor under him gives way and breaks.

The Clash of the sword with Logan's hand caused a little shockwave that spread through the castle then Logan asks, "What happened while you were alone I told you not to leave the house." "There was a giant dog with three heads outside that run at me in full speed like it wanted to attack me," says Duncan and Logan says, "That's only Ronnie he is harmless he just wanted to play be happy it was him and not Matatabi she would have attacked you if she was around while you were attacking her disciple."

"What just happened?" says Elissa that runs into the room seeing Logan and a teen. She runs at the teen and says, "Duncan us that you." "Eh I'm back I stayed a little longer because it was fun to train with Godfather. He even gave me this new sword that he made previously for Malcolm he said," says Duncan showing a big two-handed that was longer than normal brighter and tighter too.

"My son hates two-handed swords so I had to leave it in a corner to pick dust until Duncan picked it up after his fifth sword broke," says Logan and Elissa says, "Poor you with what do your kids fight?" "My youngest with some gauntlets and shins, Evelyn with her Green Dragon its a staff with a blade at one end pretty thigh staff and weights a lot. And Malcolm uses three katanas," says Logan and Alistair goes over to Duncan and tries to lift the sword when he couldn't move it a centimeter away and Elissa says, "You fulfilled your promise he really could take our prime state as nothing."

"Well if I had the same tools with you two you would be like him but I didn't," says Logan and Alistair says, "You are pretty late you should return to Darrian's house or they will worry." When suddenly the door breaks open and someone with three swords attacked and Duncan defended them against the attack and attacks back making the teen retreat and Logan says with pressure in his voice, "Enough. Duncan, you did good and Malcolm you didn't go all out he could have killed you with his next attack."

"What about the door?" asks Alistair and Logan says, "You will find a new one I would be more worried about the floor your son destroyed. Now, Duncan, you have your training plan and write a letter when the sword gets to easy to handle I will come right away to change the weight of it. Malcolm apologizes for breaking the door we need to get the Darrian before returning." "I'm sorry about the door I just felt the ki of my father go higher all of a sudden I thought here I could get a challenge but now I know when the next time I come it won't be boring," says Malcolm and both leave the palace and return to Darrian's house and pick him up.

"You are pretty late don't you think," says Darrian and Logan says, "The whole group will be back together except for Sten, Wynne, Zevran and the other two here. So no I'm not late since Neria and some Wardens had to return before going back." "Fine let's go and Malcolm says goodbye to Adaia," says Darrian and Logan says, "So you are for them been together." "For now."

After Malcolm said his goodbye they Hiraishin towards Skyhold where Ellana just arrived some hours ago. "Where are the two?" asks Ellana and Abigail says, "Don't worry they should return soon." When suddenly all three appeared in the room and Abigail says, "See I told you." "You are late what happened?" asks Ellana and Logan says, "I visited my daughter-in-law and my Godson who could become my son-in-law in the future." "Really and you didn't bring me with you," says Abigail and Darrian says, "He also trained his Godson for one and a half day before picking me up."

"And you are?" asks Ellana and Darrian answers, "I'm Darrian Tabris a Grey Warden of Ferelden and Veteran of the blight I fought with Logan side by side. Back in the days but it looks like they are coming back." "Nice to meet you. I'm Ellana Lavellan the Inquisitor and the one who will command you until your Commander arrives tomorrow or after tomorrow," says Ellana and Darrian nods and asks, "Where are Faren and Morrigan?"

"Faren isn't here but Morrigan is with their child around here I think," says Logan and Darrian asks, "Where is he?" "He is with the Wardens of Orlais if Morrigan told me the truth," says Logan and Darrian says, "Then we need to make it fast and attack Adamant Fortress before it is too late." "We will but when everyone is ready and not on impulse he can take care of himself and if he really dies I can bring him back in a year. If he does in front of us even sooner," says Logan and Darrian understood what he meant just running in like blind chickens won't solve anything.

"So do you know where you are going to sleep," says Ellana and Darrian says, "I'm taken." "Me too by our Ambassador so don't worry about what I said and answer so I can send someone with you to your bedroom until everything is over," says Ellana and Logan begins to laugh and says, "I hope your wife never finds it out or you might die by her hand it at least by your daughter when I trained her like Duncan." "She would never do that," says Darrian and Logan says, "Even my daughter does things that hurt me sometimes." "That's because of the training not because you did something wrong for that I'm around," says Abigail with a frightening tone in the end that makes Malcolm runs and the other three have shivers on their back. "I need to leave see you later," says Ellana and Darrian says, "I will follow you" "Traitors all of you," says Logan while the two retreat while he had to stay there.

After three days the other finally arrived and they could finally plan their move against the Fortress Adamant that was built before there were siege weapons to invade it so they could use many loopholes it has. They would need a week to march there and attack while the siege weapon will be given by Orlais to finish this crisis. Ellana said to give an Inquisition insignia to recognize our Grey Wardens and they all agreed to this. Then Cullen gives the Order to march and everyone was ready. Logan goes to his family and says, "When your mother and I disappear don't go on a rampage but take care of the dragon if you can. If he runs away after we disappear leave it be but before that don't attack the dragon Ellana needs to get her memories back." The three nod and go to their united between the wardens near Darrian.

Before arriving, Ellana chose her companion, Varric, Dorian, and Cassandra to follow her while the others help the soldiers and The Iron Bull leads his Chargers. The Moment they break the gates they run in while the towers connect with the walls of the fortress making it easy for them to enter it. Once inside Logan and his family were securing the walls with the soldiers of the Inquisition and Grey Wardens.

Ellana and her group came with Daveth from the steps and Logan says, "Are you ready to go the walls are secured over here." "Yes we secured the other side we need to be fast now," says Ellana and Daveth says, "It was good we didn't kill the Wardens that gave up and let them retreat it will play into our hands." "Ryuu you are in command until we return hold the line and push inside. But don't kill Wardens that gave up and let them retreat demons should be killed." "Yes, Logan. Godspeed to you," says Ryuu and Logan says, "Who needs luck if he is strong."

Then Abigail and Logan leave with Ellana's group and Dino says, "There he is right who needs luck if you are stronger than anyone on the planet." "Let's go we need to push forward and secure a way to retreat if they don't convince them to give up," says Ryuu and pushes the line up.

Arriving in the heart of the fortress Ellana and her group finds Clarel who was about, to begin with, her plan in front of a giant rift and then Ellana says, "What is going on here?" "Why are you attacking the defenders of Thedas?" says Clarel and Daveth says, "The Wardens of Anderfels see it differently and send us to stop you from your plan." "They don't understand that it is the end for us," says Clarel and Logan says, "We know enough to know that you are wrong and will be judged once everything is over the same goes for the mage beside you. Do you know for who he is working?" "For who?" asks Clarel and Logan says, "For our prime enemy one of the first six Darkspawn that appeared after entering the Golden City. He is just using you to get an army of demon to fight for him."

"We aren't here to kill the Wardens just to stop your foolish plan nothing more," says Ellana and some Wardens said that it was true and Clarel who was about to kill her friend and brother of the order and says, "We will stop this then and look into the documents that you brought. For now, arrest Livius Erimond for conspiracy against the Wardens."

"Ah and we came so far Clarel," says Erimond and hits his staff against the ground many times like calling for something and continues with, "And you who interrupted the plan of the mighty Corypheus our God and he send me a gift for you." Suddenly a dragon appeared he was almost decomposed looking like an Archdemon flying over the sky. Demons appeared through a giant rift in the fortress where they were and attacked the Wardens that weren't in Corypheus control.

A big fight happened while Erimond runs away and Clarel followed him. After the fight, Ellana's group followed with Abigail and Logan while Daveth and the others immobilized the Wardens in Corypheus control and kill the demons that are coming from the rift. Then Ryuu and the other arrived to help with the soldiers and Wardens to help. The dragon flies around the fortress while breathing out its fire on its enemies.

After catching up with Clarel, Ellana and the group find Clarel about to execute Erimond when the dragon flew down and lands in front of Clarel and bite her in two and wanted to attack the group when Logan hits the dragon directly in the face pushing it back making the shaky floor shake and giving way that made them all fall and Ellana unconsciously opened a rift under them and they fell into it. They fell for a long time until stopping before hitting the ground.

"Where are we?" asks Dorian and Logan says, "It's the Fade Ellana has opened a rift to save us from the fall and the Veil is pretty thin around Adamant Fortress that's why she could open one that easily." "I didn't think the Fade would be this black. I need to rethink about changing religion now that I see that. How was your religion again Logan maybe I change to yours," says Abigail looking around and Cassandra says, "That can't be we are physically into the fade."

"Yes you are," says a voice Logan and Abigail recognize and Logan says, "And what are you doing here?" "I was around visiting my son when suddenly I felt a familiar aura in the area and I came over to look at what is going on I see now what happened you must come from Adamant Fortress the only way for the whole group to enter the Fade," says Shura looking at them and Ellana asks, "Do you know him?" "Yes," says Logan and Shura answers, "My name is Shura nice to meet you all I think you might have heard from me before at least some of you." "I'm El-," says Ellana when she gets interrupted by Shura, who says, "I know you all no need to introduce yourself. Now to business, I want to make it fast here for you since the Fade can corrupt you all since you are inside her physically so Ellana I will giv-"

"Puny mortal walks around my real-," says the giant demon and Shura snaps with his fingers and it dies then Shura says, "I hate it when I get interrupted now where was I." "You wanted to give Ellana something," says Logan and Shura says, "Right that was it. Now let's make it fast Ellana you will get your lost memories back but they will be shared with everyone here so let's begin so I can send you back to were you all belong."

Shura waves his hand and everything that happened at the conclave was shown to them and then Cassandra says, "The Wardens are at fault for all this." "You are really shortsighted aren't you let Logan explain to you why it wasn't the Wardens," says Shura and Logan says, "The Wardens can be controlled by Corypheus since we are all tainted and he can call on this taint and control them. Those are only Wardens from the Free Marches. I really hoped Loghain wouldn't be under them but it looks like he is manipulated by Corypheus too."

"So all was just a coincidence that I got the Anchor," says Ellana and Shura says, "It could be but it isn't you out of many possible options was chosen to wield it so not really a coincidence if you don't trust my word ask Logan he knows there are more options for your job but you were chosen." Ellana looks at Logan and he says, "There he is right it could have been a Dwarf, Human even a Qunari but it was an elf. So don't undervalue yourself after finding this out." "Yes like a man of Logan's world once said 'It's not how hard you hit but how hard you get hit and keep moving forward.'" says Shura and then Logan says, "Really Rocky." "What I like his movies how the underdog almost always wins," says Shura and Logan sighs then Shura says, "Time for you all to return except for you Logan we need to talk."

Then he snaps his finger and all disappeared. Logan stood there alone with Shura and says, "What is it really you came for." "I came for the reward for the soul of Solas that you gave me before." says Shura and Logan says, "Didn't you gift me with the horses." "These can be purchased for almost no money. I will give you an extra pair of Griffons and a 1967 Chevrolet Impala or a Dodge Charger 1970 also a little Space ship named A Thousand Wings now which car they are all peanuts against Solas soul but the infinite tank isn't for both things. The Griffons are also modified a little now choose the car."

"I take the Impala make it black like in supernatural. Also what modification did you do to the griffons, the car and the spaceship?" says Logan and Shura says, "So be it they will appear inside Justice I have your blood so don't worry of them going wild in there also the griffons are bigger than normal also more muscular. The car and spaceship were modified to travel pretty fast you talking to a godking after all. The Spaceship is the fastest that will ever exist in the whole Multiverse even if they try to copy it they won't succeed. Also, like said infinite tanks you will never to buy for fuel ever again. I made the ship a little bigger so 4 people can sit in it instead of one."

"Now the real business why you had to stay back once you kill Corypheus everything in this World will be over and you will have to leave but you can only take your wife and two other with you or you could destroy the whole Multiverse you can take them with you in Justice but they should never leave only pets as their partner can always come with you since they are linked to your blood and theirs. So you will take a hard chose also you need to leave some Guardians behind." says Shura serious and Logan asks, "What are the consequences?" "Annihilation of you all you need to play by the rules. If they are born in the new world they can stay and jump over to this world to visit but only four at a time so are the rules. But you could invite them to Paradise there these rules don't count. Why do you think I'm almost always alone with my wife. Because we visit them instead of the other way around. That with my son and his wife coming over was because we called them over for that conversation. Now that you understand take your time to process it. See you." says Shura and Logan appears in front of the giant rift and Ellana closes it then.

"What took you so long?" says Abigail and Logan says, "I had a long talk about our future with Shura he told me of a simple rule to never cross that's all." "So let's talk about that later then," says Abigail and Ellana says, "What should I do about the Wardens?" "Up to you. You are the leader here not me," says Logan and Ellana then says, "The Wardens will stay and help the Inquisition as punishment for this deed. Until our enemy is dead."

Ryuu appeared with the children and the others and says, "The dragon flew away the moment the children attacked it." "No problem soon will be the final battle for now lets return," says Logan and the family retreated. Ellana was celebrating their win with everyone while Logan was with Abigail talking about what Shura told him and Abigail says, "And you think we should leave our kids here?" "Yes they will grow and marry here have kids here and we can visit it's not like we can never come back." says Logan and Abigail says, "As long as I don't see Evelyn as a bride I won't leave here." "Well that will be in four years and we will have to help around here before leaving," says Logan and both retreat to sleep.
