With that, Nymeri sheathed his sword and bowed slightly. "I am sorry. I never heard of a demon who doesn't know who sent them. Maybe your harmless, which I haven't heard of either. Tend to your business, and tread softly. May Pronysus guide you to the light." With that, he returned to the inn and his seat. A few minutes later, the inn got crowded. More and more beings came in, he saw a gruffy, short person with an axe on his back, something he hasn't seen before, but what he could get was the name of his race, a "dwarf". But he did nothing, as he just ordered more mountain water, and waited till nightfall.<br/><br/>*********<br/><br/>Viktor nodded at Ophelia, and she followed him to the shrine. They went out the room, down a few flights of stairs, through a hallway full of demon statues, and out of the fortress. They only had to walk a little more on a path to get to the shrine. It was a dark building, as it was already dark. The sun never came out, as dark, stormy clouds covered the summer sun. Lightning flashes out, only to be followed by thunderous booms in the sky, as if bombs were going off close by, but in the sky.<br/><br/>They came to two giant guards, guarding the entrance to the Shrine of Darkness. "Password?" they asked in unison.<br/><br/>"<span style="font-style: italic"><span style="color: #000000">Kar'ganshion Telimer Sangertu</span></span>" Viktor said in his demon language, and the guards lowered their huge, javilan-like weapons, and Viktor and Ophelia continued inside. As they continued, Viktor explained what he was gonna do, "<span style="color: #000000">I will let the gods know what is going on. I will also tell them on what happened as far as my minions losing track of the item. When I do this, I want you to stay out of sight. They only recognize me, and they will kill anyone who intrudes. You understand?</span>"<br/><br/>With that, he stopped her outside of the circle, and he went towards the two large statues of Antyr and Dermythis. He took out a gloden knife, and slit his hand, and greenish-blue blood came spewing out of the wound.<span style="color: #000000"> "As I offer my lifeforce, so shall it bring the gods I shall call upon, Antyr and Dermythis!"</span><br/><br/>A cloud appeared in the middle of the two statues, and split into two, and reanimated themselves as two men, one in complete black robes, Fire-red hair, and silver eyes,the other in a gold and black outfit, with black hair and solid black eyes. Viktor bowed before them, and sheathed his knife.<br/><br/><span style="color: #000000">"Lord Dermythis and Lord Antyr, I humble myself to your arrival. I bring news,"</span>Viktor said as he rose from bowing.<br/><br/><span style="color: #0000FF">"I am aware that you lost track of an important item. I am also aware that you are retrieving it. You are not doing as we asked,"</span>Dermythis said in a cold, scary voice.<br/><br/><span style="color: #FF0000">"We have granted you an army for finding these items of great importance, yet you lack the mindset of giving orders to find what you have lost,"</span>Antyr added.<br/><br/><span style="color: #000000">"Your graces, surely you will give me another chance. I have tracked the item they lost to a port city in the Almerkian territory. They will have it here within a day,"</span>Viktor explained.<br/><br/>The dark gods then disappeared, and they both said in unison,<span style="color: #FFFF00">"You will not fail us again. If you do, then we will destroy you, and find someone else to do this task. If you manage to succeed however, we will overlook this."</span><br/><br/>Viktor, as tough as he looked, trembled in fear at what they had told him. As he quickly walked out of the circle, he went to Ophelia.<span style="color: #000000">"Keep a track of the ones going after that item. I need it!"</span>
