Chapter 24 Mariea Demonstar battles her father Dark Demon Dragon King Azah’gar Demonstar to the death

As Mariea Demonstar flew higher and higher so did Azah'gar until they were so high above the clouds that Azah'gar panted as he knew that this was to be his last battle because now that he was not in his realm he was rapidly dying and even if he won this battle by killing his daughter it would do him no good he would still die in the long run. He cast a spell on Mariea that allowed her to speak in the human tongue when she was in her Dragon Form " Father you know as well as I do that the longer that you stay here the faster that your life force will be drained and the faster that you will die." Azah'gar replied evilly " I know, and I do not care to wither I die or not I will still go to Under- Hell and be judged for my actions." Azah'gar then thrust his claws at Mariea but Mariea grabbed his claws and broke it then ripped his hand off. Instead of crying in pain Azah'gar merely laughed and said " your power is growing soon you will no longer be able to control yourself and you will become what all of the Dragon Folk dream of being there true form a Demon Dragon! Soon all of your memories will fade away all you will remember is death and misery " Mariea cried out " I will never give in to you! I don't care if you are my father I will kill you for all of the people that you have enslaved over the years that you have ruled as Dragon King!" Mariea then thrust her claws into Azah'gar and ripped him in two. As she did this she felt like a huge weight was lifted off of her shoulders her memories were returning, and she now had control of her transformation once again. Beneath Vilongariea the Six found a damp dark room that housed many dead men and women that were chained to the wall. In the corner was an older man that looked to be alive the Six walked up to the man and he said raspy " thank the Gods that you have come I was beginning to think that you were not going to show up!" Ralingar walked up to the man and unchained him and asked him " what is your name?" the man replied, " I am the Oracle of Vilongariea, and I thank you for saving my life." As he bowed and then said " I was given the task many moons ago to guard the third Dark Ring Fragment. Just a few days ago I was given a vision in my cell that told me that you would be coming to retrieve the Third Dark Ring Fragment of the Ring of Wrath that I have been guarding all of these years." The Oracle stood up and moved to the right and then pulled out a hidden compartment from under his feet that he was standing on where he was chained all those years he then pulled out the third Dark Ring Fragment and gave it to Ralingar who put it in the magic backpack Adam then asked the Oracle " where is the next Dark Ring Fragment of the Ring of Wrath?" the Oracle of Vilongariea replied, " the next Dark Ring Fragment is inside the Northern Dark Mountains of the Wraith King with are located in the Realm of Nightmares where the Wraith King rules." Adam looked at the other and they thanked the Oracle and left the room and headed back out to the throne room once they were in the Throne Room Mariea was just coming down from her battle with her father and had de –transformed and she said: " I would like to be a part of your team." Ralingar paused and said, " yes I think having a guide is a good idea." Ralingar turned to Mariea and asked her " how do we get down from here and to the Realm of Nightmares? " Mariea replied " I can transform into a dragon and fly us all to safer ground it is not safe for me to fly us to the Wraith Kings Realm. I will just fly us to where the Sea of Sand ends and then it is on foot from then on." Mariea then leaped off into the air and then transformed into her Dragon Form once she had transformed the Six all got onto her back and they flew northwards towards the Realm of Nightmares were they will need to travel the to the Northern Dark Mountains of the Wraith King as they were flying Adam caught a glimpse of Zargorwarth the Demon Lord going into Vilongariea
