Zack and Louise, had been married for five days, and still the city was in celebration.
The Oracle had been busy with her people, her entire city and her people, were in an other dimension, Dain had taken her to a place two hundred miles away from the Dark city ,a large open expanse with forests in the distance ,and a river that flowed gently through the land ,the perfect place for the city of Rinaway, to be located inside the mountains, hidden and protected from the outside world, the Oracle felt at peace for the first time in centuries,today she would bring her people to their new home , she would bring the city of Rinaway to this place, and her people would begin to grow and thrive as a culture once more.
"Let us begin ,I will control the magic of this inner world inside the mountains, and allow the placement of your city , place your city on my command ,and all will go well " said Dain.
Dain placed his staff in front of him and began to speak the words of power .
" Licet Illude, Primito ,Sum , it is permitted allow it to be " said Dain in the dark speech.
The crystal at the top of Dain's staff, shone forth a bright blue light, that grew out from his staff and expanded into the distance in all directions .
"Now Oracle , place your city " said Dain.
The Oracle brought forth the city from dimension storage, and placed the city that was shrunk to the size of a tennis ball on the ground before her, a golden light emerged from the body of the Oracle ,and engulfed the miniature city ,slowly the city started to grow in size, and after an hour the city of Rinaway was transformed into its full size, the city sat inside the valley , between forest and farmland,that surrounded the city .
The population of the city slowly woke from their slumber, the city of Rinaway had been shrunk and then sealed in a single moment of time, and placed inside of a storage dimension, to protect and hide the city from the shadow king .
With the return of the city of Rinaway, and its people, the Oracle would be at her full power for the first time in a thousand years .
Dain established a permanent gateway, between the city of Rinaway and the Dark city, located in the palace of the king in the Dark city, and the temple of the Oracle in the city of Rinaway .
The city of Rinaway was built out of colorful marble ,that glittered in the sun and moon light, fountains and gardens could be found throughout the city, a large market square was at the foot of the temple ,the temple itself was the center point of the city, a large building that spired into the air with a golden domed roof , It was on the steps of the temple, that Oracle stood with Dain the Dark Elf warlock, looking at her city and its people, as they slowly awoke from their long slumber.
" I will take my leave now ,and allow you to inform your people of what has occurred and where they are,I shall return in a few days unless you call upon me, I will see you in a few days Oracle" said Dain .
" Thank you Dain for all that you have done , I will see you soon my friend " said the Oracle.
Dain went inside the temple leaving the Oracle with her people,Dain stepped between two pillars, and went through the gate, he had placed inside the temple and disappeared, he reappeared in the palace of the King, inside the kings personal library, the magic gate shut down as soon as Dain had stepped through,leaving him standing between two pillars, that were the exact match of the ones he had installed in the temple of the Oracle.
The Oracle stood upon the steps of the temple, and with the aid of her magic projected her voice, so all the people could hear her words .
" My people I have much to inform you of ,the true king of vampires has returned, and we are allied with him and the Dark Elves.
Our city has a new home, here inside the mountains, of the world of the Dark Elves , we are protected by the Dark city, and the Dark legion of the vampire king.
I am sorry my people, that you have been frozen in a moment of time for half a Millennium, it has not been easy, but now with the return of the true king of vampires and the lands of night ,we have a chance for a great future.
For the first time in five hundred years, we have a home, thanks to Zachary, Vincent Eldridge the vampire king,my people we shall celebrate, we are home we are safe ,and we are together "said the Oracle.
The people cheered and smiled some even wept the king had returned and they were safe hope filled the people of Rinaway for the first time since the day the shadow king started to hunt them he wanted the power of the Oracle for himself he wanted to twist her power and bend her will to serve him he wanted access to the powerful and accurate visions of the Oracle .
The Oracle had foreseen what the shadow king would do and she shrank her city and froze her people and city in a single moment in time then placed them inside a storage dimension and had been on the run and in hiding until she met Zack the Oracle had spent a lot of time hiding in the hall of worlds a place out side of the normal universe a place where time worked differently, centuries could pass outside the hall and only hours had passed with in the hall of worlds and some parts of the hall time was different again centuries could pass inside and outside only decades would have come and gone the hall defied logic in many ways , the Oracle had used her power and used the hall to her advantage which enabled her to successfully hide from the shadow king and his demons for centuries.
Valora the Oracle felt relaxed and happy she knew that the future held many hardships and battles but for the first time in centuries she felt deep down in her soul that the evil could be overcome to many worlds had fallen to the armies of demons under the shadow king's and his generals command, it was time for celebration thought the Oracle.
" my people let's celebrate bring forth wine and food let us make music and dance "said Valora .
Thunderous applause and cheers were heard throughout the city and the people all rushed about preparing food and drink , the Oracle entered the temple ,and went to her private rooms ,she cast her eyes to the future looking forward into time ,she saw the battlefield of war she had seen before, Zack and Louise stood side by side ,the head of the shadow king in Zack's hand, and the head of Lyndanim the witch queen in the hand of Louise, both Zack and Louise had on their blood armor , both wore their crowns, the Oracle felt some one watching ,it was Lyndanim the witch, she was looking into the future, quickly the Oracle summoned her power ,and blocked the witch from seeing who her enemy was, she called upon a Guardian of light and knowledge, a powerful black dragon ,to help guard the knowledge and keep the witch from seeing .
The Oracle satisfied that the witch had been stopped, before she became aware of the return of the vampire king ,left the room and changed her dress ,she headed out of the temple ,and began to mingle with her people from the priests and priestess of the temple, to the common people of the city , she spent time with as many of her people as she could she had not seen them in hundreds of years , she would spend the next two days just enjoying life with her people, she would inform the king of her vision, and how she blocked the witch queen for now, she would have to inform the king it was time for him to evolve ,he must grow quickly in his power, he must amass an army, the shadow king would know in the end, that the king had returned ,it was only a matter of time, they could not remain hidden from the shadow king forever, a time would come when the shadow king would know his enemy, and the Oracle was going to make certain, that the king was more than ready when the time came .
The celebrations continued, fireworks could be seen across the city , the streets were lined in tables with food given out free and others tables held ale and wine ,all was passed out to the people, all was free of cost ,everyone provided something towards the celebrations ,the atmosphere was one of joy and hope, laughter filled the air ,and children ran around playing, the Oracle was filled with joy and happiness, and silently she thanked the day she met Zac.
