Released

Maiguh, Dinetee, Endra and Elsbeth were stuck for the time being. With some of her energy she sent them back to the End. Minea had fallen back into her sleep, before that she had instructed them on how to help her rise, but they would need two vital ingredients, which were unattainable in the void or End unfortunately.

The blood of Dauntice and that of Onicent. The easiest ingredient of course was Maiguh's blood.

Together they would be strong enough. Getting them together would be difficult, Dauntice would likely agree, but Onicent would be trickier. Maiguh was not even sure he would be able to get near enough to Onicent to explain.

Unfortunately, they had no choice but to wait for portal reactivation. Maiguh was not optimistic that they would ever reactivate. He did not tell Elsbeth this though, she was far to hopeful.

Maiguh was proved wrong for it happened when Maiguh and Elsbeth were having yet another practice sword fight. Elsbeth took a leaping jump and struck at Maiguh who dodged but barely.

"Getting better, aren't I?" Elsbeth said. She lowered her sword and put a hand on her hip.

Maiguh laughed slightly. "Indeed, you have improved, still elegant though."

"It's my special move." Elsbeth countered.

Just then there was a strange noise. Elsbeth turned around and saw a glow coming from the nether portal.

"Look," she cried in excitement. "The portals!"

Maiguh was slightly in disbelief. Onicent had reactivated the portals?

It was then one of the Enderman arrived.

It's information filled his mind. It showed Maiguh an awful scene. He pressed his hands to his move while he saw his family ruthlessly attacked. Rissa shot and Airabella taken by a monstrous creature and the mountain where Onicent lived also surrounded by monsters, and surprisingly Sonnis and Amos. Sonnis with fire blazing in her eyes and Amos looking more like a puppet in the control of Ilodeena.

"We have to go now!" Maiguh told Elsbeth.

She looked surprised but gave a rapid nod. "Let me guess, their all under attack now? Is mom okay?"

"I'm not sure." Maiguh confessed.

Elsbeth made a face, then she slung her sword over her back. "We better get going then."

"We will go to Mount Minecraftia first. The Enderman saw it was under attack."

"Okay.." Elsbeth said.

"Endra, Dinetee!" Maiguh cried out.

They both appeared by his side.

"The overworld is under attack." He told them, "my brothers and sisters are in grave danger."

Dinetee sighed slightly, but nodded. The four of them grabbed their weapons, Maiguh summoned some of the Enderman to join them and together they set off.

They all tumbled through the portal together and into the world.
