Ambitions
In the heart of the newly born island Lanka, where the barren land met the tideful ocean, Charybdis gathered her allies for a strategic meeting after spending the day terraforming the islnad by grafting leylines and intigrating the landmass partially to the planet.
Milim, Veldora, Harita, stood with her amidst the gentle rustling of leaves and the distant murmur of waves.
"I propose we fortify Lanka using Veldora's Dimension Craft," Charybdis began, her voice carrying a hint of anticipation.
"Combined with my Subskill of Angra Mainyu, we can create a protective barrier that will deter scrying magic of all levels and prevent infiltration."
Veldora nodded thoughtfully, his eyes glinting with interest. "A dimensional barrier reinforced with your semi-manifested Marble Phantasm... It sounds like the best plan. We could make Lanka virtually impenetrable."
Milim grinned, excitement dancing in her eyes. "I love the sound of that! No one will dare to mess with us once we have that in place."
Harita, ever practical, voiced her agreement.
"Managing internal affairs and defenses will be crucial. I'll ensure everything runs smoothly at your command within Lanka."
Charybdis looked around at her Family, her expression serious yet filled with ambition.
"With Lanka fortified, we will not only protect our home but also lay the groundwork for greater ambitions. My ultimate goal is the complete subjugation of the entire Demon Realm and all the Primordials."
Milim's eyes widened in surprise, then gleamed with excitement. "That sounds so fun, Charybdis!."
Veldora chuckled confidently. "I've always admired your ambition, Charybdis. Let's make it happen I have a bone to pick with those anyways."
Charybdis smiled, a glint of determination in her eyes matching the resolve of her companions.
"Then let us begin. Lanka will be our stronghold, and from here, we will conquer."
=========================
In the newly created golden Castle of Lanka, Charybdis sat on her throne Joined by her family.
In front of her stood Harita dressed with her armour and weapon.
"Harita," Charybdis began, her voice firm yet calm pickingout a small card from her pocket , "I have an important task for you. You are to travel to the Dwelling of Spirits and present an invitation to the Spirit Queen. Invite her to join us in Lanka during its early stages. Her presence and power would greatly benefit our new kingdom."
Harita nodded, her expression serious and resolute as she received the invitation from Her master.
"I understand, Master. I will deliver the invitation to the Spirit Queen."
Charybdis's eyes hardened slightly as she continued.
"However, if she refuses our invitation or delays in the decision, you are to extend the same offer to the Elemental Lord of Darkness and the Elemental Lord of Space. Their powers and influence would be invaluable to us as well."
Harita bowed deeply, acknowledging the gravity of her mission.
"I will ensure that the invitation reaches its intended recipients, Master. I will do whatever it takes to secure their alliance."
Milim, ever enthusiastic, punched the air in support. "Good luck, Harita! Show them the strength and potential of Lanka!"
Veldora nodded approvingly. "It's a crucial mission, but I have no doubt you will succeed, Harita."
Harita straightened, her resolve clear. "Thank you, everyone. I will not fail."
With that, Harita turned and began her journey, her form quickly disappearing into the waves of the ocean that bordered the shores of Lanka.
As Harita embarked on her mission, Charybdis looked out over the newly formed island.
The creation of Lanka was just the beginning.
With alliances forged and their kingdom fortified, they would rise to meet any challenge and achieve their grand ambitions.
=========================
Harita moved swiftly through the dense foliage of the Jura Forest, her mind focused on the task at hand.
The invitation from Charybdis weighed heavily in her heart, not as a burden, but as a constant reminder to her master's trust in her abilities. She had to succeed no matter what.
After a long journey, she finally arrived at the Dwelling of Spirits.
The air here was different—more vibrant, filled with a gentle hum of magic.
Harita took a deep breath and stepped into the entrance of the labyrinth, a structure formed by the intrinsic skill of the Spirit Queen, Ramiris.
The labyrinth was immense, its walls cryptic and dusty.
Navigating through the never ending corridors, Harita felt the presence of countless spirits watching her.
She finally reached the heart of the labyrinth, where the Spirit Queen resided.
In the center of a luminous chamber stood a small, glowing figure—a pixie with delicate wings and an aura of ancient wisdom.
Ramiris, in her recently reborn child form, turned to Harita with wide, curious eyes.
"Who are you?" Ramiris asked, her voice high and innocent, yet carrying an ancient power.
Harita knelt before the young queen, showing her respect. "Great Spirit Queen Ramiris, I am Harita, envoy of Charybdis, the queen of Lanka. I come with an invitation."
Ramiris tilted her head, her curiosity piqued. "Lanka? What is that? And why should I be interested?"
Harita took a deep breath, choosing her words carefully. "Lanka is a new kingdom, created by Charybdis herself, in the southern ocean of the continent. We seek allies of great power and wisdom to join us in our early stages, to help us build a sanctuary of peace and strength. Charybdis believes that your presence would be invaluable to us."
Ramiris's eyes sparkled with interest, but she didn't immediately respond. Instead, she floated closer to Harita, scrutinizing her.
"Hmm... There's something unusual about you. Qualities that shouldn't be present in living beings. And there's a glaring essence of a spirit within you. How did this come to be?"
Harita hesitated, taken aback by Ramiris's perceptiveness. "My powers come from the mercy of master "
Ramiris's expression softened slightly. "I see. You have the essence of a fire spirit within you, about 15%, I'd say. It makes you unique, but also marks you as a creation impedingon nature by many. If you ever feel the need, you are welcome to join the Dwelling of Spirits. You might find a sense of belonging here."
Harita was momentarily stunned by the offer but quickly composed herself.
"Thank you, Spirit Queen. I am honored by your offer. But my loyalty lies with Charybdis and the kingdom of Lanka. I am here to extend an invitation to you, to join us and help shape our new home." After finishing she offered the invitation to Ramiris.
Ramiris considered this, her tiny fingers tapping her chin thoughtfully as she read the card.
"Relocating the Dwelling of Spirits is not something to be done lightly. It's my domain, my home. How can you ensure its safety and sanctity?"
Harita nodded, understanding the weight of Ramiris's concerns. "We propose to use Queen Charybdis's and Master Veldora's combined powers to create a secure and enhanced environment for the labyrinth. Your home will be protected by powerful barriers and our unwavering commitment to its preservation. Additionally, we offer to relocate the Dwelling of Spirits to a strategic position on the bridge between the island of Lanka and the mainland. This way, your responsibilities to the spirits remain intact while enhancing their protection and influence."
Ramiris floated back slightly, her expression serious despite her childlike appearance. "I will need time to think about this. It's not a decision I can make lightly."
Harita bowed her head in acknowledgment. "Of course, Spirit Queen. Take all the time you need. We await your decision with respect and hope."
Ramiris nodded, a small smile touching her lips. "Thank you, Harita. You may go now. I will send my response soon."
With that, Harita rose and backed away respectfully before turning to leave. As she navigated her way out of the labyrinth, she felt a mixture of hope and determination.
The future of Lanka while didn't inherently depended on these alliances, and she was determined to see her master's vision realized with the best possible odds.
