"So you would have heard about Raptor, right?" Rock Flames asked. I was sure he expected yes as an answer. But I hadn't heard of him ever so I kept quiet. Till then I had learnt to keep my mouth shut during times when I had no answer.
"Yes, I have heard a bit. It is a legend, right? Raptor was some kind of alien maybe." Oliver guessed which proved to make Rock Flames a bit happy. "You are right. He was an alien." Rock Flames answered. You would be laughing at me as we ourselves are aliens to you, but whatever.
"Raptor was the commander of King Jalaar's army who used to live two thousand years ago. This is the story of that time." Rock Flames explained and I knew that a big speech was lying ahead. I looked at Oliver who expected the speech as well. We were not bored of the story yet so we decided to hear it more. We turned our attention back to Rock Flames who was waiting for us to get adjusted with this story.
"King Jalaar had come from the planet Xorai. It is the closest planet to us. Life was present in Xorai just like in Darknor. The king of Xorai, King Jalaar was greedy for power. He had already conquered the whole world, but he wanted more. He has conquered each and every planet in our universe except for ours. (By the way, Earth is not in our universe so keep calm.) And so, he decided to conquer and rule ours too. King Jalaar's army is no joke. It consists of almost the number of people we have in Darknor." Rock Flames said. "He was unstoppable. He was conquering Darknor rapidly. That was the time when all the legendary warriors came together to battle his army. That was the end of them. Millions were killed. Trillions were tortured, looking at their planet getting destroyed. And just when we had lost all hope, a man came forth. He was a skilled magic master. He knew to use magic, an ancient power of the Darknorians which has been forgotten as generations passed by. Using all his powers, he sealed King Jalaar and also his army. But everything is not free in this world. It costed him his life. The whole army got sealed as they deformed into ash particles on the ground. But the magic wasn't enough for them to die. It is said that they can awaken again if somebody will let them. Someday, if someone decides to awaken them, the chaos will continue once again until King Jalaar has his hands on Darknor."
The story had a good plot but I still didn't know why Rock Flames was telling us all this.
"Everyone was sealed. But unfortunately…. Raptor escaped. He was not present during the time of the sealing process. Raptor was right there, hiding behind a fallen tree trunk, hoping he would not be sealed. The magic master died after the act so he was unable to seal Raptor. Knowing that he was the only one left from his kind, Raptor created chaos all around. He even tried to bring King Jalaar back again. But the left out warriors came together and did their best to seal him as well. Though, his spirit couldn't be sealed, but his body was. He was sealed with metal chains all over him and put into the Forbidden Dungeon, deep below the ground." Rock Flames declared. "The Forbidden Dungeon is somewhere in the center of the Saggron Jungle. No one goes there anymore because Raptor still lives there, all these two thousand years, still trapped, waiting to get freed and awaken his kind. Two archaeologists recently went in with all their guts. They had found interest in the subject of Raptor. Only one came back. The woman says that Raptor spoke to her. Raptor has guaranteed that he will free himself in the coming two weeks."
