"Well here we are shall we?" Pim told the rest.
"Why are you taking this as a child's play we can die you know."Nalin said
"Come on relax babe you have me I will be your support."Pim extended her hand to hold Nalin's hand.
Nalin felt a comfortable warm feeling in her heart but again she brushed it off. "Yeah okay and you have me too but one more thing how do we get up?"
"Let's try flying."with one hand holding Nalin's hand the other hugged the fire beast tightly. pim and Nalin circulated their celestial energy and soon after they floated right towards the volcano top. They stood on top of
the volcano.
"How are we supposed to get inside the fumes are all over it blinds our vision literally I can't see."Nalin started.
"Hey be careful the risk of falling is huge we are literally standing on edge." Pim said her only concern is her goddess
"Master let's go inside we might be here for a while, we first need to break the enchantment placed on the map otherwise the map would have been burnt to a crisp."Fire said.
"Who placed the enchantment." Nalin asked
"I don't know I am only a hundred years old I am not familiar with that."Fire said
"Okay nalin remember don't drop your celestial energy okay let's go in." Pim said and with that they went inside. In what felt like a decade they finally felt a solid ground beneath their feet. After making contact with the ground, the volcano lit up. The volcano had light illuminating crystals imbued on both sides of the volcano giving our trio their vision back.
The volcano was huge and only in the inner most middle would you find the lava boiling. besides the light illuminating crystals there was murals on the volcano walls.
"Hey pim what are this writings on the wall?"Nalin asked pim who was still looking around. Pim quickly went and checked out the writings.
"Ohh this are murals that depicts legends." Pim said
"Can you read them?."Nalin asked with a frown
"Yeah I was taught this language when I was a kid but this language isn't everywhere it's exclusive only to the celestial guardians." Pim said
"Okay give us some information." Nalin said.
"This one says that the vermis a fire breathing serpent came to this volcano and found a chimera a monstrous creature that is part lion, part goat and part serpent resting and the vermis started wreaking havoc in the chimera's lair which apparently it's this volcano. The fight went on for three days, In the end both sides lost the fight and both beasts went down like that. Wow were are lucky because apparently the chimera is the guardian of the map. Well this mural has nothing to it." Pim said.
"We are so lucky the chimera is gone I think we owe the vermis a big one tell me what about that one." Nalin pointed to the mural next to the chimera's one.
"I am so lucky you are not a celestial guardian because you are so timid. Well this one just tells about the war between celestials and warlocks apparently the warlocks colluded with the witches, The warlocks are the fallen celestials and the only defining difference between the upright celestials and the fallen celestials is the warlock's celestial energy have corrosive elements well this sounds familiar don't you think?" Pim asked it is true this sounds familiar but as you know if it's not nalin, pim won't bother.
"No I don't think I have heard about that okay let's forget about the other murals and let's find the map and get out of here." Nalin said while stroking fire who was laying in her embrace, totally ignoring the part about her being timid.
" Yeah sure let's go." And so they went.
