Chapter 2017  2017. An Ancient Monster

 As an elder lich, he had been trapped, but that didn\'t mean the other undead he controlled were not. But he had no reason to create an army. He was not free to leave his prison, why take over a world he could not roam?

"We can\'t just leave here though. There is clearly something happening. The longer we are away, the worse things will get." Gil knew that this split second choice in the midst of chaos could make or break everything. Time was a very big factor. That was why everyone was rushing this idea and trying to make sure information was found. "It\'s that or we keep waiting for information. Just in the time that we waited while researchers dug through everything, we managed to get attacked by hundreds of blood kin bats. It\'s sure not to be the end of them too. There will be more attacks." Mordant\'s calm and precise response made it clear that time mattered, but also in the sense that they needed correct information. "When we saw the immortal king, he did tell us that his people, no matter how twisted they were, had wars with the vampires. If the demon king is working with them or something, then the immortal king might become an ally. If not only temporary." As a hero, Walker did not wish to see any chance for an undead powerful enough to literally fight him and the dragons combined to be released. It was why he had pushed the elder lich from his mind. There was nothing to do with that trapped evil. Yet, if that evil could somehow save many and cleanse the world by sharing information… it might not be the worst choice. No matter the disgust Walker felt going to this monster, it was a monster he knew against monsters he did not. Monsters that had been strong enough to fight against other ancient monsters that Walker couldn\'t fathom. "We will go. The dragons and forces can gather here. Prepare and set a camp. Whether we can take that ruin or not will be up to us. If the demon king has to do something here, it can not be simple. Look at how low the corrupted city is floating. It must have lost a lot of mana. So we will take the chance to use this time to get the right answers." …
