9 Mania- The Creative side of Madness

Once entering through the door of Mania, Both Dovah and Jazara gained a blessing from something or someone, The blessing of Mania. They soon realize the colorfulness of the place, with vivid mushroom that blocked the sunny sky. With garish yet insane look to the place, a masterpiece that would truly drive one insane. They soon followed a road that was called Overlooked road, leading toward a place that was named New Sheoth Bliss.

Once reaching the gate, they came across a female guard wearing golden armor, with a face of disgust as she glanced at the duo. Dovah spoke toward the female guard.

The female spoke in a haughty and hot-tempered manner "well? Speak quickly" As she turned to Dovah.

Dovah spoke "What's new Sheoth?"

The Guardian Golden Saint Sighed "another idiot" as she whispered under her breath. She responded to Dovah question " The capital of Shivering Isles, That We, the Aureal would defend to our last breath".

The Aureal turns around, unwilling to speak anymore, only saying one simple word "go".

Soon both duos made their way towards Sheoth Capital, coming face to face with the Mad Prince.

Sheogorath spoked to them with a bipolar tone while clapping as dovah and jazara walk in." Live and well? shame can't say the same about my guardian. It makes me shake with excitement! I wonder why you so different, maybe if I skin you alive? No, Perhaps another time... Now time for the boring stuff, I am Sheogorath, the prince of madness. With many other titles and hope you can guess them. I love to guess, wait, don't tell me. Regardless you do deserve a reward for being live or maybe it can go well with your corpse!

As Sheogorath hands Jazara and dovah an amulet called Charity of madness along with the key to dementia.

Dovah asked Sheogorath," I heard you need something done?"

Sheogorath replied "Yes! your help is required to save the realm, for long time I been waiting, who would that your race so fragile and easily broken. No matter, you either save the realm or die trying. A calamity is upon us, for a change must happen, for everything can change!

Dovah asked in a questioning tone "changes?"

Sheogorath "Yes! changes for the greymarch is upon us, although everything must change especially deadra prince. I'm no exception, despite even the way I am.

Jazara this time replied with confusion" Jazara has never heard of greymarch"

Sheogorath " we are on a tight schedule little rug, they're not important so no worries! we will continue after you're done!"

Dovah "what you need done?"

Sheogorath " Of course, what you must do is important! everything I say is important, for I own everything! well of course just in my realm. Now, you must go to Xediliam, my favorite place to see the walls be painted in red! with many wonderful cheeses.

Dovah "why Xediliam?"

Sheogorath " Cause my guard keeper is dead! that must be taken care off. Cause none wants unwanted people. Because this is my realm and my rules, for they spoil everything. So, you need the Xidiliam up and running, here have my favorite books!

As Sheogorath hands the book Manual of Xidiliam and the Attenuator of Judgment.

Sheogorath "Now get their quickly before I get bored, you wouldn't like me bored or otherwise ill dangle your intestines like a puppet show! Now scoot and run along.

Given their task, Jazara and Dovah, soon made their way towards the far southwest along the Pinnacle Road. Once reaching the place they soon faced of an enemy, amphibious frog like creature while wielding crude crooked spears. While in the far back, their shaman would be using a poorly made staff, which contained the judgment Nexus. Once gathering the Nexus, they soon came across a very giant crystal that took most of the room at the end.

Once activating it, a blinding light assaulted them, once they were able to see again, they soon realized that the room was completely different. At the far corner of the room, a dunmer spoked to them "A new guest finally, it was getting devilish boring around here, well, at least we can spend eternally all together as one" as he said with a smiling expression with a cheerful tone as if he wasn't trapped as well.

Jazara responded "Jazara does not understand by spending all of eternally here?'

A the dunmer " ah yes, well you walked into a trap thus your stuck here, oh by the way I'm kiliban Nyrandil. The only way to processed and escape is by encountering three adventure, where you must choose their pain, physically or mentally" as he said in a dark gloomy tone at the end while finishing. He reverts to his smiling form, as if he never said that in the first place.

Soon after a while three adventures entered the chamber below the duo as they were on a higher platform, the three adventure were unaware of the due as they begin to argue with other. The orc could be the leader for the way he acted, but clearly, he was just all brawns and no brains. The rogue, who was a Breton was the scout for he had a cunning and flexibility unmatched. A mage who was a Dunmer, could be the brain of the team, for the way he talked down at the rest as if they were children. At their feet, a gnarl snoring away, unbothered from the noise of the arguing from the three adventures.
