I was standing right in front of the temple. The temple that was the source of the decease in magic. But Spati was inside Leon's castle...what if he's hurt? But im right here! What if i destroy whatevers taking the magic and then leave? But what if Spati's hurt!
I had this little argument in my head for a few minutes untill finally i decided i would hurry and destroy the magic leach. So i entered the temple. It was made of gray marble, nothing to fancy and i entered a giant room. It had a fire in the middle and wood covered the floor. Then there was nothing else.
"I need to hurry and get this over with" thinking outloud. I walked toward the fire and put my hands close to the fire to warm them up. I looked around the room while my hands were roasting. Just wood. I looked at the fire and a gem was placed right in the middle of the fire. I took a piece of wood and tested the jewel but the fire grew and ate the wood then calmed down again. That was wierd.
I took my sword and tried to test the sword that way but the same thing happened only this time it just made the metal hot i could barely hold it. I put it back in its sheath quickly and looked around for something i could use. There was, again, nothing. Should i use my hands? I would get burned. But of course i had nothing anyways so i stuck my hand in the fire. "AHHH!" The fire grew till it reached my elbow. The fire turned blue then yellow untill it rested on red. The pain was excruitiating so i quickly found the jewel, wrapped my fingers around it and pulled my hand out. The fire died down again. My whole arm was burned. It hurt so much
I closed my eyes and concentrated on healing my arm but...nothing happened. Oh yeah, magics gone. Shoot!
Over back by the fire a piece of the wall was missing. In the shape of the jewel...
i walked over and placed the jewel inside the opening. It fit perfectly. I heard some rustling and looked back where the hearth was. The whole fire moved to reveal a set of stairs. I walked down, my arm hurting like hell and my sword ready.
It sucks that that was my good arm.
