A FEW HOURS LATER
INSIDE RAYMOND OFFICE
‘Should we make this public?’ The man said on the opposite side of the desk, reviewing a docunt marked top secret.
Sotis he would pinch his forehead like he was having a headache. Raymond then said
‘If there are any spies in our organization, we need to find them. If we enlist the help of the public-‘ but before Raymond could finish his word the President shakes his finger
Hirate shakes his head as he look at Raymond. Still…denying. Hirate muse in his heart. He….still believes he is a follower.
Hirate could not make Raymond realize it himself, no matter how many tis he has advises Raymond.
That Raymond is not a follower. He never was. He was a born leader. Then Hirate said to Raymond looking tired
‘People will be panicked. Terrified and paranoid. There’s going to be demand, at least soone to be held accountable for this mishap. Surely the Quorum ask you for sothing?’
Raymond nodded
‘The Quorum ask for a free hand. They demand a trial. An independent tribunal’
‘Hmph. And that trial will have to co back to the public with a na. Soone that did not do their job. Soone to be held responsible’
‘We don’t know if anybody makes any mistake.’ Raymond said his tone clearly rising. Hirate got up from his seat and pointed his fingers at Raymond and then with a slight rising tone, reprimanded Raymond.
‘Are you really that na?ve Raymond? A spy penetrated your security, killing the guards of the Vault, steal a Hyperdrive which is undoubtedly will be used to create a Battlestar. At least one of your people fucked up.’
Then Hirate sighed.
‘Look, here’s the thing. Openness, transparency, it all sound great in paper. But I’m telling you, these things have a way of creating collateral victims.’
And then Hirate calm himself down and he look at Raymond eyes and he said his voice was resolute and determined
‘I don’t want a witch hunt on our hands. I’m going to trust you Raymond. But the first sign of any trouble, I want you to clean it up. I won’t always be cleaning up your ss.’
‘This is not my ss, Hirate.’ Raymond said, his tone is bordering in anger. Clearly he did not appreciate being reprimanded.
‘I’m not going to assign bla but I’m sure the Quorum would be more than happy to make you the scapegoat. So of the people in the Quorum don’t take it kindly that you control both the Army and the Admiralty. Sotis, it is wise to see the circumstances against you Raymond. Just a friendly advice.’
‘You don’t have to worry about that. The Quorum want the spies as much as I do.’
‘Hmmm’ and Hirate just shakes his head.
‘Fine. I’ll trust you. I will inform the public. But rember. First sign of trouble-‘
‘I know’ and Raymond cut him off.
Hirate just nodded and he exited the office. Raymond relaxes himself and sighed as he look at the ceiling.
‘I hope The White Witch got so good news.’

SOWHERE IN THE FOREST REGION
LEAGUE OF FREEDOM TERRITORY
A man was reading a report.
With his bandaged face his eyes shows maliciousness and hatred. His face was devoid of emotion.
As he keeps reading the report he couldn’t help but smile. Slowly his smile becos wider and wider.
And then he laugh like a madman.
Alone in his room, he laugh like he was satisfied but his eyes still maintain that hint of craziness and his hatred seems to be eternal.
‘Raymond, you wanted to be let off that easy? I might not be able to steal the Hyperdrive and was outwitted by others, but I can still trap you. You still have a mole. And I will make sure the Quorum itself that will execute you.’
And then he continues his laugh.
Outside his room were hundreds of people wearing a uniform with a cape that shows the crest of a white wing and a shield painted on their capes.
Dark forces is targeting Raymond from a thousand miles away.

ANWHILE
FAR AWAY IN THE UNIVERSE
PLANET BELTHANA
A spaceship is entering the blue planet from a large mothership station in the outside space periter of the planet
Belthana is a wasteland planet. At least it was like that trillions of years ago.
Now, the planet while it is not a center of great political power like Olympus or a planet of great wealth like Asgard, it is still a planet which have its visitor.
But the planet was not fully crowded. Only in certain tis it will be visited by other planet travelers.
But there is a place in this planet that is rarely visited. The Temple of the Three Sisters of Fate.
Or more popularly known in the universe as the Temple of Fates
The temple is rarely visited because the occupant of that temple rarely gives permission to enter their temple.
And no one wanted to offend the Three Sisters of Fate, lest they anger the Twelve Supre Leaders of Olympus.
But today, a warrior has co with a noble purpose to Belthana, to revive a great civilization.
Such undertaking must weight in a person heart.
The warrior spaceship landed on the red desert of Belthana. Making a landing in one of the hills, a silhouette of a man wielding a spear, exited his ship.
The sound of the hatch opening, the vapor white smokes accompanied his exit as he step his foot on the red desert.
He covers his eyes with sothing resembling a goggle and then he look at the blue sun in the sky.
‘I’ve arrived.’ He said with a s light panting. He was tired. Operating light speed carrier has its burden on the bodies.
The man is Fir Her Waz.
He scoured the universe to seek the rchants of Sarens.
When he finally found the mothership of the Sarens rchant, he was introduced to Runion, one of the rchant that sells Ancient Knowledge.
Fir bought the information about the All Source for ten million Tenyu, the currency of Sarens.
Reading about the information, the people that knows the location of the All Source is not many.
Lord Protector of the Eight Realms, High King Odin. The Republic Head of Olympus Zeus Son of Chronos.
The Ten Thousand Heaven Enlightened August Ruler, Yu Wang that resided in the Jade Palace.
All three of those rulers will never told him the location of the All Source since they have made a treaty about the secret of the All Source.
They would never tell or disclose such universe shaking secrets.
Then there is another four persons that knows about the location of the All Source. The elder of the Universe and the Three Sisters of Fate.
The Elder of the Universe is recuperating after he tried to hold back the Destroyer in the Yuserinian system.
And his whereabouts is unknown.
So, Fir has no other choice other than seeking the Three Sisters of Fate and hope that the Three Sisters will not turn him down at the door.
He began to walk down from the hill ard only with his spear. Even from afar he could see the majestic 500 feet temple that reaches to the clouds.
He then began running.
Yrinian is fad for their physical body as he run as fast as a bullet train.
Even as he is running, and wind rushing pass his ears he could not help but reminisce so things.
He rembers that his daughter once said that she wanted to once visit Belthana.
She was ten at the ti and begged him to allow her to go with her friend in intergalactic trip in the Dromidian galaxy.
She even got first place in her class and tries to persuade him to follow.
In the end, he did not go. Only his wife and his daughter went. Fir could not imagine that he would now regret that he didn’t go on that trip.
Belthana is special even among the other planets.
In trillions of years past, the First Race, Eterna was annihilated by the Unholy Destroyer.
The Eterna race size was as big as a planet and that was the most smallest of them. So of them was big as an entire galaxy.
They were the most powerful race in existence.
But when the Destroyer cos for them, they were powerless to resist. In one day, they were annihilated, every single one of them with no possibility of reviving.
But one survives. Borgan.
The last daughter of Eterna.
She hides from the Destroyer for trillion of years. When it was ti for her to die, she transford herself to a planet to atone for her sin towards the Creator.
Her eyes beco the sun and the moon.
Her teeth beco the mountains and hills. Her nose becos the dividing line between the Distorted Seas and the Chaotic Lands.
The planet that she turned into was filled with the magic of Eterna race, of the force of the Universe.
For thousands of years after that, her body remains a deserted planet until the Seer’ans ca.
The Seer’ans was running from the Frost Giants from the Asgardian system.
The Seer’ans was a race of no remarkable ability. They do not possess powerful bodies or magic. But they possess great ntal endurance.
The First Oracle found the Heart of Borgan and was gifted the ability to see patterns.
Patterns that enables the Seer’ans to correctly predict what will happen in the future. Since then, the planet beca the Seer’ans ho world.
When the Intergalactic War happens about five thousand years ago, pitting the Jade Palace, Asgardian, Olympians, The Devas and Shuras, and the other powerful factions in the universe, Belthana was won by the Olympians.
The Three Sisters of Fate decided then to create their temple here as they slumber here, looking through the future.
As he was thinking this he finally he arrived in front of the gigantic door. The Temple is situated among a very large valley that could fit ten gapolis city
Fir Her Waz was not even spent. His body is after all the most powerful in Yrinia. He look at the Silver door and hesitated.
He doesn’t know the etiquette to ask for help from the Three Sisters of Fate.
Is there any offerings he has to offers? As he was thinking this, suddenly a voice filled his mind.
‘Offer us the Diamond of Avaloteskitara, the Demon of the Nine Netherworld and the door will open.’
Then suddenly a floating blue fire appears beside Fir Her Waz which shocked him as he moves a bit further from the fire.
Fir Her Waz at first hesitated. After all, the Diamond could strengthen any person by ten tis.
But in the end, Fir Her Waz tossed the diamond into the blue fire and then almost imdiately the blue fire consud the diamond and then disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Fir Her Waz feels this is an unfair trade.
He doesn’t know if asking a question will require another price. Just opening the door requires him to give such treasure.
As he was grumbling in his heart suddenly the sound of creaking filled the valley, as the 500 feet door is opening.
Then a voice sounded again.
‘Welco to the Temple of Fates, O last Son of Yrinia. We have been waiting. Co to us’
Then saying this the voice disappeared. A little freaked out but determined, Fir Her Waz moved forward as he enters the Temple of Fate
