Arkain rubs his sore swollen belly. He keeps the connection with Gold. <I am glad you understand Gold. She is. I can feel the darkness getting stronger. Everything inside me tells me Crystal is the key to defeating the darkness. Exactly how, I don't know. All I know is she is the key. Your help is going to be very important, my friend. I need you in full control of yourself when we confront the succubus again, OK?> He rubs his belly some more.<Now lets get you back outside. Have a nice nap.> He starts to let the air out of his stomach slowly waiting till you fall asleep. Once you are asleep he starts to release his digestive juices. They start to digest your body. Once they do, Arkain's magic catches your spirit. He focuses extra of his healing magic into your reformation so you come back at full health. Shortly a bright light forms not far from Arkain. It starts to quickly take shape. After a couple minute your body reformed back.<br/><br/>Arkain's stomach juices start to quickly break down Gold's body. He slowly and unsteadily stand up when he saw the dragon toss in front of them a humanoid rat in front of them. He nods to the dragon looking at the uniform. "Thank you. Ahhhh. What is your name?"  Arkain snarls angerly at the rat.. "Hmmmm, Appears so. A spy. I hate spies." His tail wraps around his neck and he picks him off the ground and holds him eye level. "Who are you spying for? What have you told them? Tell us now. Cause you know something I think you look like a plumber to me, don't you Wendy. Perhaps you would like to find out just how much she HATES plumbers."  He throws the rat down in front of Wendy's grinning evily.<br/><br/>The guard walks into the Great Hall. The eerie  glow from the crystal cast strange dark shadows through out the room  walks up to Lord Xeron trembling. He drops to his knees. Lord Xeron growls seeing his missing arm. "How dare she and to my personal servant." He points his staff at where his arm was missing. The gem glows brightly and his arm suddenly reappears. The servant bows down to the floor. "Ohhh, Thank you my Lord." Lord Xeron suddenly has an idea to slow down the three. He growls. "Get up nave. The succubus has failed me. Now it time to prove your worthiness to me to have a place at my side in the new order. The planets are coming in line. Nothing must interfere with ceremony. I need you to summon all guards. All citizens. Anyone who can draw a bow or lift a sword. Tell them that there are three strangers, a lizard, a dragon and a Koopa are coming after their precious Princess threatening to kill her. Tell them they must stop them at all cost. Protect the princess." The guard gasps believing the his lies. "It shall be done, my lord." He calls out to the Captain of the Guards and tells him of the threat. The calls to arms sounded. The castle comes alive with the sound of soldiers getting ready for battle to protect their beloved princess.
