Kiel hath balled his fist and punch the passing cloud right in front of him. The Royal Prince is angry. Anyone can mock him as the playful and childish prince but not his God, Not the God of El Oathniel Kingdom who blesses them and the nation here on North Hernani Nobles. Kiel is about to shout and blow his now boiling anger when Ophir slide his left hand unto his neck and pull him close in a friendly manner and said
" Kiel I can hear your boiling point exploding but know that you are not alone. Release that emotion before it causes a problem to this assignment. "
Lehi gently rub Kiel's back and said this comforting words
"We are angry as well but we need to have proper control on ourselves. Believe us we want to charge right there to behead them, but we have to find out why and what this culture is about. So that we can find a solution and prevent this culture to pass for the next generations. "
Kiel calm himself when they heared an uproar from the crowd. Hexel is on top of the altar slashing a passing cloud and pointing his sword unto the people and declared.
" I don't know why you are practicing such culture but this is what I gotta say. You hath presses the wrong button that blows up not my trumpet but horns. "
Kiel just laugh loudly as he appear behind the crowd with Ophir and Lehi. Lehi just faced palmed herself. Boys will be boys. She even composed a legnthy lecture for Kiel but got busted by Hexel, how epic! On the other hand Ophir kinda shrugged it off because he expected that this will happen.
A middle age guy with long white hair holding a candle stood for the crowd and said
" Shame on you intruders our ritual is done. You will just wait and see a blackened meteor shower starts as I count to three. " Right after he counted to three huge meteors started to rain down on the capital of this Kingdom. The smell of blood from grinned animal enticed the black meteor to lust and devour more and stir more fragrance of human blood to rise up.
Hexel and Lehi head to the capital.
Kiel and Ophir remain with the traditional people. "God would never allow His people to be consumed by a traditional mindset. " Ophir shot back to the middle age guy. " "Your desire and lust will lead your people and descendants to doom. " The guy suddenly use the candle to burn his hair, the people followed his actions.
Kiel summon his cane and prayed.
"To our God who love us beyond compare, rain down your mercy upon this people because they don't know what they are doing. "
The next roll of clouds passed with a heavy rain withering the fire on their now half consumed hair. Ophir lift his right hand and prayed.
" Almighty God who purifies us with your blood, I your servant humbly asked for a salt shower to purify the hardened heart and fallen angel blinding and possessing this people."
Ashes started to separate from each body of folks and got washed by the rain as the remains of fallen angels continue to turn to ashes not even getting carried by the wind but got eliminated without a trace.
The people got possessed and started to get confuse with their burned hair.
The middle age guy have told them how it started. It is during their feast that suddenly his wife started to chop the prepared meat for the meal. When he asked her why, she responded sweetly that she just wanted to show off her new recipe. Weeks after the feast, the people started to feel dizzy and light headed. As the chief of this tribe I got concerned only to find out that my wife got possessed by a demon. And the meat we deliciously shared is a human meat from a newly dead body. Until one by one the people became a host for the devils, calling on a dangerous meteor shower.
As the meteors continue to tear all thing in ashes Hexel slices every meteor that falls down and positioned it to be a pillar where Lehi heal with the oil. Hexel can wield any weapon as long as he prays.
" God of victory who purged every battle field and continue to be the reason why we stand in such courage. I humbly ask that you turn this sword unto an axe and hammer to smithen all that hurts your people. " The two sword on both of his hands became a small hammer and axe that really grinded all meteors that falls.
Lehi stamp her coal heels on the ground turning the ground unto coals as she used her comb to empower the floating bubbles of oil that maintain healing and gravity to whoever it touches.
"Our God who is our refuge and shelter help me wield this comb unto a fan that sends your oil to heal whoever it touches. Let the coal that you have given maintain gravity to those who are walking and running without panicking but of faith."
The aftermath of the event left the capital in rubbles as the smoke rises up kissing the starless night. Ophir and Lehi sealed another book once more.They have performed the same pattern. In possition of Auto-harmony with Lehi's reverb the pages are now full text. Ophir bestow the title "Fragrance of Ashes" through his gift Ad-lib. It's been two days and the tale bearers are set to go home when they recieved a letter from King Cyrus that they have to head west saying that the two new team mates are on their way to Filadelfa Mystica where sorcery and supernatural creates unexpected mysteries.
