19 Sulcan part 5
(Ariock pov, sealing place of Gora)
When I walked through Luke's portal I was greeted by the sight of an clearly ancient building, which sat in a large patch of grass surrounded by a dense forest.
It stood at four stories, looked like a cross between a Greek and Norse temple, and had the color scheme of crimson red and gold that shined in the red moonlight.
' Wait a minute red moonlight? That's not right. The red moon only shows once every three years!'. I thought with a furrowed brow.
'Not to mention wasn't it day a few seconds ago? This really isn't good, if whoever is doing this is powerful enough to enact a red moon, along with changing the day/night cycle,I need to be careful, I may need to unseal my full power.'
Looking around uneasily I continued my thoughts.
'There's no use in dwelling on it right now, if the time comes to use my full power so be it.'
Now slightly calm I began to walk towards the temple, studying my surroundings on the way.
The first thing I noticed was the various ruins that clustered around the temple.
Each ruin varied in age and composition, some were fairly recent around two-three hundred years ago, while others were from nearly a thousand years ago.
Most of it looked like the ruins of city's and towns that attempted to settle here, only for (from what Ariock could tell from the claw marks) a beast of some kind to wipe them out.
Taking note of that, Ariock finally reached the entrance of the temple.
The entrance was two massive iron doors with images of Gora and her accomplishments.
Gora herself looked like a goddess of beauty rather than a goddess of murder. She had white hair red eyes a perfect body, and a face that would make Luve( a goddess of love) cry in envy. The picture showed her in a red tunic holding a beautiful sword that had markings of her religious order, the Warriors of Rage.
Done studying Gora Ariock moved on to the list of accomplishments.
One of the images show cased Gora decapitating what looked to be a dragon with black scales.
Another showed her being rewarded for killing said dragon.
Finally it showed Gora being corrupted by a chaos God, making her lash out against her peers before being defeated by a legion of war gods and goddesses and being sealed away.
Taking all that in I raised an eyebrow, then scowled visibly.
' Damn It seems Gora wasn't always evil. Some chaos God corrupted her and turned her into a nearly mindless beast.'
Shaking my head I looked at the large doors in front of me, before smirking.
"knock knock mother fucker". I said before pulling my now clenched fist back while coating it in magic.

(inside the temple)
Within the temple on the fourth floor sat a woman, the room which she resides in being quite baren. The only thing in there besides the woman was a medium sized door protected by a magic field, and the entrance to the room.
She had pure white hair that reached her lower back, with four sea green eyes that held power. Her figure while slim wasn't too much so.
Her face looked like one of a goddess even with the numerous scars Littered upon her. The four eyes instead of repulsive as you would assume only added to the overall beauty of the woman.
She wore a blue mage robe, which on a closer look has the religious sign of Xavi God of balance and order. She also carried a glowing red staff that was absorbing a red aura that came form the magically sealed door.
Currently her eyes were closed and she sat in a meditation position clearly in deep thought and focus.
That focus however was interrupted by what sounded like ten bombs going off, which was then by followed a large thud.
The woman was so startled by the sound that she almost dropped her staff in shock.
"What the hell was that! "She yelled in a high pitched tone.
Looking around cautiously for a second she calmed herself as she casted an observation spell with her left hand outstretched.
" Give me sight beyond my limits (Eye of true seeing)".
Upon finishing her chant two of her eyes turned gold and a golden orb the size of a baseball came into existence in her hand.
Looking at the orb she tossed it upwards before saying " Quickly, find the origin of that sound".
As soon as she gave the order it sprouted wings and left the room.
Once the orb left she sighed before standing up.
"Guess it's time to prepare for my guests." She said while tightly gripping her staff which glowed a bright red at this action.
Noticing this she lifted the staff above her head, and then chanting once more.
" oh goddess give me the forces of rage and murder, the forces that will cleanse the weak, and purge there enemys, this is my plea Goddess of murder, bloodlust, and rage, the great Gora!"
Done with her chant she slammed her staff down and a large red magic circle appeared.
"now activate (Warriors of rage!)"

(Back with Ariock 3rd pov)
Currently our protagonist was at a loss.
He had no idea were he was as this temple was basically one big maze.
When he tried sensing his way around he was instantly given a headache from a massive amount of bloodlust coming from seemingly nowhere, and he kept going in circles.
Overall Ariock was not in a pleasant mood.
He was about to just say "Fuck it" and brute force his way through when he felt a massive build up of magic from above.
Tracing the magic back to it's source he got a mental map of where to go to reach the top.
Smiling triumphantly he sped off towards the magic source.
