Chapter 4 Answers and Action
Drakus POV
I looked over and five beings made their way over. Each of them different from one another.
The first one was a humanoid beast with 2 heads. His entire body is around 2.5 meter tall. His entire body is black with red outlines scattered across his body. Fur can be seen around his chest and neck area. His chest is bare said for 2 gauntlets and shoulder armor piece on his right side with spikes on it. He wore a black metal leggings with spikes on his knees. The two faces are similar to Rottweiler dogs with red markings on top of each forehead. They both wore spiked collar. He carried a two-handed battle axe that’s the same height at him and the blades are 15 inches in diameter on each side.
He was created by Manom and the Inferno Sanctum guardian, Orthodox.
Standing next to him was an angel, literally.
She looked entirely human except for the 2 big wings that extended from her back. She stood around 2 meters tall but she was floating as well. She wore a garb similar to a dress and vicar which covered most of her body except her hands, and head. A stole hung from her neck with a symbol of a brilliant sun at the end of each strand. (A stole is basically the long fabric part of the vestments, search it up for a better picture.) Her entire garb is white and gold and adorned with golden designs. Her entire faced shined, all of her feature were perfect similar to that of Altina. She has long curly golden hair and a halo can be spotted just above her head. Her left hand holds a book while her right holds a transparent orb.
She was the creation of Kaetzchen and the Sky Sanctum guardian, Leona.
Behind her and Orthodox were 3 additional figures.
The one on the left at first looked human but the lower half of her body is snake. She stood 2 meter tall, around the same height of Leona. Adding in the length of her tail would make around 3 meter long. Her tail portion is about a foot in width. The skin color is a mixture of pink and purple and magenta. The upper portion is human and half snake. She wore a purple corset which emphasize her breasts and hand garbs. The skin color of her upper body is mostly a light tan white. The skin is similar to that of a snake, with scales but less visible. She wore a sleeping mask that covered half of her face. On the right side of the mask it showed an eye that is closed with an X cross over it. The left side has an eye that is opened. She holds a rod around 2 foot long. It was similar to a caduceus minus the wing. (Search up “caduceus” to get a better picture.) A white snake on the left side and a black on the right. There’s a crystal orb in each of the snake's’ mouth.
She was the creation of Reptillia and the Earth Sanctum guardian, Lissina.
The one next to her and in the middle is the weirdest one.
Its entire body and was very geometric. The upper body is 2.5 meter tall and a 1.5 meter wide made out of blue crystal. Its entire body is a geometric shape, made up of a combination of hexagonal prism and pyramid. The body is like that with a flat bottom. Its’ arms are the same with a slightly small size for the arms and same applies to its 3 fingers. It also has 6 long crystal extending from his back that are also the same shape and smaller. The feet are the same as well, being smaller than the body and shorter. It has a total of 9 dots that form an X with makes its face. (I model it after the Pokémon Reggie Ice. Just essentially imagine that with 6 back crystals and an X face.)

This abnormal being was created by Arsenal and the frozen Sanctum guardian, Polygon.
Finally on the left side was what looked like a regular person with blue-greenish skin.
She was around 6’5 and looked much like a fish. She looks human but in reality is a siren. On land she would have normal human legs and feet, but in water she would have tail. Her entire skin color is blue-greenish. Currently she wore a Hawaiian style shirt and bikini and shorts. A towel with very colorful flower design draped around her waist and downward to her knees. Similar to Lissina her skin also had visible scales similar to a fish. Her features are very beautiful. Her eyes have slit pupils and the rest of the eye are a neon blue color. There’s a fin of each side of her head and on her necks were pairs of gills. She has light pink flowing hair that reached to her stomach. He holds a staff that is around 2 foot long. At the top end holds a blue floating crystal with a strange symbol engraved on it.
She was the creation of Shae.Alpha and Ocean Sanctum guardian, Meral.
I felt a couple of drops of sweat going down my throat. Although I didn’t physically show it, I was shaking in my boot.
*If what Manom and Nu-Ru said is true, then they might even be more dangerous.*
All of the guardians were all lvl 100 as they were made by us. We each design them to be powerful in certain fields
*If a fight should to break out, could we possible win?*
Nu-Ru must have sense my uneasiness because he put his hand on my shoulder and reassured me.
*Alright calm down, right now you need to act powerful!*
“Ah, so you have finally come.”
Orthodox: “Of course, what kind of servant doesn’t follow his master’s order?”
“I see, now we just need to wait for the other three.”
XXX: “That won’t be necessary.”
I turn around to the other entrance and three figures made their way over.
Two of them are Altina and Sirva, while the last one was the one who answered me.
He was abnormal just like Polygon. His entire body seems like an outline of a man. He stood around 2 meters tall. His entire body seemed to be space itself. He was mostly completely black except for small suns, planets and galaxies that covered his body, constantly moving. The only clear features were his lips, eyes, nose and mouth. When he talked it sounded as if more than one person spoke with him. It gave him an omnipotent feeling.
He was created by Trion Jazz and the Galaxy sanctum guardian, Nabuu
Dragos moved toward the other guardians as they made their way to the center while the rest of us did the same. As soon as all of us were together the Guardian soon knelt before one of us respectfully in front of their creator.
Altina: “Everyone please offer your respect to the masters.”
Lissina: “Earth Sanctum guardian Lissina has come to serve my masters.”
Meral: “Ocean Sanctum guardian Meral has come to serve my masters.”
Polygon: “beep beep boop boop beep beep boop beep.”
Orthodox: “Inferno Sanctum guardian Orthodox has come to serve my masters.”
Leona: “Sky Sanctum guardian Leona has come to serve my masters.”
Sirva: “Night Sanctum guardian Sirva has come to serve my masters.”
Dragos: “Dragon Sanctum guardian Dragos have come my masters.”
Nabuu: “Galaxy Sanctum guardian Nabuu has come to serve my masters.”

Altina: “Grand Sanctum guardian Altina has come to serve my master. By your order all the guardians are assembled. Order us however you wish.”
Looked down at them kneeling and I started to question whether or not this was real or not. I quickly snapped out of it.
“Thank you for coming guardians.”
Lissina: “Your gratitude is unnecessary.”
Nabuu: “We are your servants, it’s just as Orthodox and Lissina said.”
Polygon: “Boop, beep beep beep boop boop beep beep.”
I heard the other whispered to one another.
Shae.Alpha: “I guess we got rid of the idea of them possibly betraying us.”
Trion Jazz: “Now that we’ve confirmed it, now what?”
Nu-Ru: “Now we find out where we are.”
Nu-Ru: “Sirva, your report.”
Sirva: “Yes, the surrounding area is filled with trees. From my reconnaissance it would seem that the Grand Sanctuary is located in the middle of a dense forest. There don’t seem any intelligent life form within the 3 kilometer and most of the animals and monsters that I’ve encountered are weak or too small to take notice.”
Nu-Ru: “Is that all you have to report?"
Sirva: “Yes my master.”
I looked over to Nu-Ru and he showed a slightly annoyed and disappointed look, Sirva caught on quickly.
Sirva: “My deepest apologies my master. I failed to achieve your orders.”
Nu-Ru: “No, no you’ve done exactly what I told you, it’s just that it’s different from what I expected.”
The Grand Sanctuary was originally located on a mountain range in the continent. It was formed deep within the mountain with the entrance on the outside. We originally chose that spot as it would be perfect to defend against almost all attack. But now we’re located in a forest in who knows god where.
Kaetzchen: “At least now we know that we’re not in Eternia but another world, nyaa.”
Arsenal: “That doesn’t exactly help our situation one bit, if anything this is bad news.”
Manom: “Right now we should fortify our defenses while we’re still unknown about the situation.”
Reptillia: “I agree, we should take things slowly.”
Nu-Ru: “Has anything happen to floors while all of this is going on?”
Lissina, Meral, Polygon, Orthodox, Leona, Sirva, Dragos, Nabuu: “No, all floors are fully functional. Beep, beep, boop, beep.”
Nu-Ru: “even though nothing has happen, still fortify the defenses, have extra guards and pay very close attention to anything that might be suspicious.”
They all answered immediately.
Nu-Ru: “Also I’m curious as to how you are able to pass on information and who’s in charge should a situation arrives.”
Altina: “Nabuu is our communication expert, all information goes through him and then the entire floor. I’m responsible for the military power of the Sanctuary and everything else is monitored through me.”
Nu-Ru: “Alright, I’ll leave everything up to you.”
Altina: “As you command my masters.”
“Before you all leave there’s one more thing we need to discuss. From now all do not refer to use as “masters”, please use our names.”
All the NPCs looked up with wide eyes and surprise looks.
Leona: “Forgive me for interjection but is there a reason as why you wish for this request?”
“This is something we all talked about and deemed unnecessary.”
I looked to the others who gave their approval.
Nabuu: “But how can we address our creators and rulers of the Grand Sanctuary with such formality?”
*Just how high of a regard do they have for us.*
“Tell me when you look at us what exactly do you see?”
All the NPCs answered respectfully toward their creators and us as a whole.
Lissina: “Beings who are wise and powerful, master worth serving under.”
Meral: “Perfect being, ones who are incapable of mistake.”
Polygon: “beep, boop boop beep beep beep boop.”
Orthodox: “Beings with limitless strength that rule over us.”
Leona: “Kind and compassionate, ones who will never abandon each other.”
Sirva: “Whom we choose to serve with our life.”
Dragos: “Beings stronger than all of us guardian, our masters.”
Nabuu: “Omnipotent beings who have brought us together.”
Altina: “The absolute rulers and the ones who create us. The supreme rulers of all the guardians and the Sanctum and are masters worth serving until the end of time.”
I looked over to the others and saw a mixture of feelings in the other’s faces. From proud and awe to slight embarrassment and awkwardness.
“I see, thank you for all of you telling me this. Now I clearly understand everyone’s’ thinking but I still wish for you to address us by our names and not simply “master” all the time.”
Altina: “If that is all of your wish then we, the guardians will do our best to meet your wish.”
Nu-Ru: “That’s all for now. We’ll be in the Inner Sanctum, if there is anything wrong then immediatly report it to us.”
All the guardians replied at the same time. We activated our guild rings and teleported to the Counsel room.
*Sigh, that was tiring. Man who knew that talking could be so stressful.*
Altina POV
After the masters teleported away, we waited for a couple of seconds before standing back up. I turned to the other guardians who were waiting for orders.
“As they command we’ll increase our security, Nabuu send some of your creatures to the other floors as communication links so that we’re in touch.”
Nabuu: “I understand.”
“The rest of you, inform all the sanctums of the master’s orders. Have patrols and guards posted at the beginning and end of all the entrance.
Everyone: “Yes!”
I nodded my head in contempt and was on my way out until the others started a new topic.
Lissina: “Sirva, why did they order you to survey the outside?”
Leona: “Sirva is what you said true about the outside?”
Sirva: “Yes the Grand Sanctuary is currently located in the middle of a dense forest.”
“We can clearly deduce that something has happen to the Grand Sanctuary.”
All the other guardians looked at me.
Dragos: “What do you mean?”
“Although I’ve never been outside, I do know that the Sanctuary was originally located on a mountain in the Kaoth continent. Judging by their reaction it would seem they realize that we along with the building have been teleported.”
Meral: “That would make sense as they want to increase security on the floor.”
I nodded toward Meral and the others started to think on it as well.
“They are mostly likely planning their next course of action, all we need to do is follow their command.”
Before I dismissed them Polygon spoke up.
Polygon: “Beep boop boop beep beep beep.”
Orthodox: “Polygon is right, can we really address them so casually?”
The others also show concerned face regarding the subjects.
*Calling the rulers and our creators by their name is disrespectful and something no servant has any right to do, but.*
“We are servants created by our masters to serve them, their word is law and we will follow them without question! Although it might be disrespectful to them but if they wish it we shall comply.”
I look to see the others with the same fiery determination as always when it comes to our masters.
“You all know what to do, now go. I’ll head back to the inner Sanctum and await them there.”
They all did a small bow and soon left for their sanctum. I soon walked toward the inner sanctum and toward my master.

8 191The New Zeitgeist
Awana was the ruler of the sky, the God of clouds and weather before almost all of his power and divinity were stripped away and his body forced into an unending slumber. It was not until millenniums later when a tribe of elves who worshipped him in the ancient past awoke him. He was awakened into a new era where ten gods who also stripped away the divinity from other gods like him abuse their powers. They ruled the world with tyranny; only keeping some kingdoms and mortals who worship them safe while marginalizing others. As it turned out, Awana still has a sliver of his previous powers. Now filled with thoughts of anger and revenge, he plans to create a kingdom of heretics cast away by the gods, revive other fallen gods like him to join forces, and finally kill all of the ruling gods. Kingdom Building (a Floating kingdom in the skies and a diverse population) Author's Note: Grammar might be messy. Yes, I am a non-native speaker but I'm not trying to use that as an excuse. I am going to try to improve. Also, I am currently in University so there are times where I might be gone for an extended period of time and other times where I am quite free and able to write chapters.
