"Friends? A black fog ambassador and white dawn daughter are friends?" Eli said with a big chuckle that made her even prettier. James just looked at her as he felt some sort of strange feeling towards her, a feeling he had never felt before. So, he said with a smile:

"Yes, why not? Let's try this out, as I'm not that ambassador anyway. What do you think?" James said.

"Of what?"

"Of me and you being friends?"

Eli looked silently for a moment before she said:

"Ok, let's be friends, James Fog."

"Hahaha, ok, Eli Dawn."

They both laughed together for a while, it was a clear laugh without any dark intentions or hidden agendas of any kind.

"Now, can you tell me where we are heading?" James asked while Eli pointed out to the controlling unit as she said:

"First approve of the new coordinates as we don't have enough time to chat before arriving near that dangerous meeting place."

"Don't worry, I have already approved of that," James said these words which made Eli feel strange and surprised.

"Then why did you do all that?"

"Isn't gaining your friendship worth doing this?" James replied with a similar serious face like the one she was making, which made both of them laugh again. she then took a deep breath as she said:

"If so, then I have enough time to tell you a story."

"Go ahead sweetheart, I'm all yours," James said while he moved with his chair a few steps to the back to give her space. She looked at him faking anger while saying:

"Didn't I warn you from using this word?"

James just raised both hands in a helpless move, which made Eli sign in helplessly as well. She then said:

"I will tell you everything, and I hope you will agree to help me with this. We aren't going to a far place to escape, we are going for a rescue mission."

James looked strangely towards her, while she took another deep breath as she continued to explain:

"I really don't know how much you know about the old struggle of Ravners of light and darkness, but or the amount of knowledge you know about these two huge existences, so I will try to sum things up to you.

These two huge forces didn't vanish as you must have noticed by now, but they went into hiding as each of them took existing empires and ruling regimes as a cover to hide from the other force.

I really don't know the reason for that strange turn of events, but all I heard was local legends and some scattered information that had no meaning at all.

Anyway, I came from the Ravner of light, which is the main representative of the old Ravner's curse, the good side in it of course."

"I don't understand this issue here, why is it called Ravner of light instead of Ravner of good? I also read another name for it, which was the light seekers," James asked, trying to understand.

"Well, the main title of ours is the old Ravner of good, but under it there are many groups that tried to use the Ravner principle with many differences between each other.

So, the Ravner of light, the light seekers, the Good fighters, and other more groups are scattered all over the universe, and they are all considered under the Ravner of good banner," Eli explained.

"That seemed complicated to me, I didn't think there were this many groups of the losing side at all," James said.

"No, there was no winner or loser in that old universal war, as both sides retreated at the same time. Anyway, I came from the Ravner of light group, which you can consider one of the extremists of the Ravner of good.

They believe in absolute power as the solution to overcome the Ravner of bad forces.

They are violent, wouldn't hesitate to kill anyone stands in their way, even if this person was one of them… just like me," Eli took a deep breath with a long moment of silence, which James respected, then she continued to say:

"Ravner of light had an old prophecy, of a twelve mighty personnel who established the 12 shrines of powers in the ancient days. This prophecy claims that 12 persons from their descendants will rise again and regain the former glory of the long lost, forgotten 12 shrines."

"What 12 shrines? I never heard of something like that," James commented while he was trying to dig deep into his memory.

"It's normal for you not to know them, as they came from really ancient times. 12 shrines were divided into 6 good and 6 evil shrines," Eli elaborated further for him to understand.

"So, your Ravner of light is trying to kill all other shrines descendants to make only its descendant rise?" James asked casually as he guessed the whole matter.

"No, you are mistaken, they are trying to kill all."

"What do you mean by all? All of the descendants? What benefit will they get by doing that? Are they crazy?" James jumped to ask all these questions as he couldn't believe in their stupidity.

"No, they aren't crazy, as they aren't descendants from any of the 12 shrines," Eli said.

"Aha, I get it now, they are wicked and evil, what Ravner of light, they must be agents of darkness concealed under the veil of light to deceive everyone."

Eli laughed on James words, then she said:

"Anyway, these people have a strange mysterious way to locate the descendants of the 12 shrines. They abducted me when I was young and raised as a hostage in a facility with many other girls and boys like me."

"And now we are going to break into this facility and release all your brothers and sisters.

I really like your spirit, but if you didn't notice before, we have a small cruiser, which is something that couldn't attack any planet, even small planets. You need to reconsider your plan, as it's a suicidal one."

Eli shook her head as she said:

"You are mistaken, we weren't raised on a planet, we were raised on a movable Terasoras SpaceShip."

James' eyes widened from fear as he muttered:

"You are crazy Eli, no one escapes from that awful prison and tries to go back to it as you do. This bad, this is even worse than attacking a planet."
