70 Getting The Location

The Queen got up from her throne and descended the stairs. When she stood near Dro. The Queen spoke, "Follow me." Vampire Progenitor nodded his head and followed after Erylis the Queen of Vampires. The Queen led him to the corridor that was on the right side of the throne. They took one of the pathways, the other pathway was on the left side of the throne. Dro followed after her leaving the Vampire Elf standing alone.

Upon entering this corridor, Dro saw that the architecture was the same, the walls had the same colour it created a very gothic feel to it. On the walls, the paintings hung. And as they walked their path was illuminated by the candles. The atmosphere was similar to the one Dro felt when he entered the castle for the first time. The youth closely followed the Vampire Queen as she walked down the corridor. During their journey the Queen didn't speak s single world, she just led Dro through the corridor.

In just a moment the corridor opened into a courtyard. The courtyard itself was more like a garden. In this courtyard, Dro saw flowerbeds a bench and some other Vampire. That Vampire was attending the flowers. Dro looked at him, "Who is that?"

To his questions they both stopped, she looked at the direction the youth was looking. "That is the gardener, shall we proceed?" Dro nodded his head and once again followed after Erylis. Erylis took a path that led into the castle. With this path, they once again were in the castle. The corridor soon changed into another open space, and from this open space, they took the stairs to the second floor. After ascending they took a few more turns and then proceeded down another corridor. Walking for a couple more breaths of time they finally stopped. Before them, a huge double door stood in front of them.

Erylis extended both her hands and pushed the doors open, the doors creaked and they soon opened up completely. A room was now in front of the young Vampire. Erylis boldly stepped into the room. Dro followed after her. Entering the room he saw the surroundings. The room was decorated with paints, the candles illuminated them the only difference of this room was that in the middle of the room stood a huge furnace. She came up to the furnace. Erylis turned around and facing Dro spoke, "We are here." Dro looked at the cauldron, he tilted his head in confusion. The youth observed the Queen for her next move.

Erylis looking down the cauldron took out the items one by one, she first dropped the branch on the ancient elven tree inside, then she started the fire and she began her ritual. In another breath of time, she poured the blood of the centaur seer followed up by pouring in the vampire bat blood.

Dro watched as she poured the ingredients and heated them, this entire process didn't take that long as the Queen drew the item that Dro had brought her, the item that belonged to a Vampire. Once she dropped it into the cauldron a huge explosion rang out. And the map was spewed out of the cauldron. The Queen came up to Dro and extended her beautiful white hand, "Take it, and bring me the head of the Vampire."

Dro took the map as he opened it when he opened the map, he saw that it was the map of <The Eternity Forest> Dro smiled, "It will be done, my Queen."

"Good, let's go back to the throne room," She stated.

They left the strange room and the Queen spoke, "Not asking any questions? I thought you would be more chatty than this."

"It's okay to ask questions?" Dro inquired.

"Go ahead, ask anything you want to know, after all, you are one of my progenitors." She replied with a happy sounding voice.

"What was the room we were just in?"

"Alchemy room, if you want. I can train you in alchemy,"

<Accept, Decline>

"Sorry, but I have to decline, I decided to train in blacksmithing," She nodded her head. After the youth declined her offer they both returned to the throne room. When the Elf Vampire saw them return back she bowed her head and spoke, "We are leaving master?"

Dro nodded, "Yes, we have our location."

Erylis looked at Dro and spoke, "Next time I see you, I expect to see the results."

Dro bowed his head, "I will show results. Next time I see you, the Vampire will be slain."

She waved her hand and he was teleported out of the castle of the Vampires. Dro and Reiya's surroundings changed and they once more appeared in the Elf territory.

The moment they appeared in this territory Reiya looked at her master and spoke, "Master, where are we going now? Where is this Vampire?"

Dro looked at Reiya and answered, "The location we need to go is <The Forest Of The Ancients>."

Reiya staggered a step back she gulped and spoke, "We are going to <The Forest Of The Ancients>?

"That's right Reiya, we are going to this forest. Our target is there"

She took a deep breath looked at Dro and spoke, "The holy forest was invaded by a Vampire?"

"The other Vampire is there, we have to slay him," Dro stated.

She nodded her head, "You are right, master. Although I know you don't care about this forest, it is very important to me. Before we proceed there can master promise me something."

"What do you want me to promise?"

"No matter what happens promise me that you won't harm anything of the forest or take anything from it."

Dro looked at the Vampire Elf and spoke, "I will do everything in my power to slay the Vampire. And if anything of the forest blocks me, I will remove this obstacle. But I won't harm the forest if we complete our objective."

She nodded her head, "Thank you, master."

Dro expected Reiya's favourability change after this conversation, but no such thing happened. He just shrugged his shoulders, "Let's go. We have a Vampire to slay."
