Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Katolis

"I'm alright everyone. For now let's go. I've been here long enough. It's time to return home."

With that Callum and Ezran packed their stuff. When they were done with packing and wanted to leave, Lujanne walked towards everyone. "It was fun when you're around Callum and Ezran. This sacred place was always so lonely, but since their is a positive change in the relationship between humans and Xadia. Hope all of you visit me sometimes." Lujanne smiled. "Don't worry Lujanne, we will sometimes."

Callum then got the horse Soren took with him for him. Put an saddle on the horse and mounted the horse. "Ezran you will ride with me. Bait you will ride with soren." Ezran sat behind Callum on the horse and Bait sat on Sorens lap. "Let's get going everyone." Ezran said.

After a couple of days they reached Katolis. They saw the majestic castle. In front of the gate their stood guards. With them stood Barius. Callum and Ezran dismounted and went to the gate. Barius ran to them, gave Callum and Ezran a big hug and said: "It's good to see you again Ezran, Callum and Bait. I missed you guys." "Barius can you please release us. We need air to function." said Callum while tapping Barius arm. Barius released them from the hug. "Sorry about that."

Callum took an deep breath. "It's okay Barius. I'm glad to see you again. How is it going?" "It's going great prince Callum. Everyone doing great, for people that just been through a war."

Callum took his stuff to the high mages quarters. When he opened the quarters he saw an desk, an bookshelf with scrolls and ancient tomes, some sheets, some candles, four chairs, an bed and an mystical mirror. Callum put down his bag and walked towards the mirror. "So this is the magic looking glass that Avizandum got so he could keep watch over Aaravos."

He brushed with hands past the symbols of the mirror. "In darkness gaze upon an fallen star. That was what is written here in these runes." He grabbed a sheet and put it over the mirror. "When Rayla returns then i will take the mirror with me to Zubeia's layer."

"Palpatine how did Aaravos took over Callums?" [Answering host, Aaravos created dark magic in this reality. He is an fallen star. That means he is an black hole. When someone uses dark magic they connect with the black hole called Aaravos. He is connected to every dark magic user and can control them. He feeds of them, like an parasite.] "So he can control me now if he wants to?" [Yes host.]

"Is there anyway to remove this connection?" [It's now not possible, but when you increase you're understanding of the Count Dooku template the connection can be removed then.] "What do you mean?" [Dooku is proficient in using the dark side so the dark magic mark should be removable.]

"Thank you Palpatine. For now let's go to sleep. I will start my training tomorrow." [Good night host.] Callum went to the bed, changed the sheets and went to bed when he heard an knock on the door. "Callum can i come in?" Recognizing the voice Callum opened the door.

"Ofcourse Ezran come on in." Ezran walked in the room. "Callum remember what you told me at the moon Nexus." "Of course Ezran have you found your answer?" Wating for Ezran answer, Callum grabbed two chairs and they sat on the chairs. "Yes Callum i found my answer. I will not train. More violence creates more violences."

Callum was very disappointed in Ezran but didn't show it on his face. He knew from season four that Ezran smelted Harrow's sword into an new crown and he died almost because he didn'y properly train. "Ezran it's your choice, but don't regret your choice." "I think i won't Callum."

Ezran stood up and went to the door. "Goodnight Callum." "Goodnight Ezran. See you tomorrow"

And with that Ezran left the room and Callum went to sleep.
