Chapter 32: Undead Attack! Visions of the past resurfacing!
Quick recap!
The incantation that creature had cast after tempting to mentally attack us and successfully blocking it had zombies crawl out from the ground bellow.
Panick ran across their minds as some of the knights succumbed to their fears and had completly fallen under the creature's mental attacks.
The witches in my shadow spoke "Undead monsters survive on negative energy! Use your psychic powers to destroy them at their source!"
Upon hearing that, realization dawned on me like a light bulb
Of course! Why didn't I think of that! Negative energy is all about emotions, if I suppress them using my psychic powers then it's done with them!
I gathered my strength and launched a mental attack on all undead creatures and for one brief moment they came into pause.
The knights took the chance to retaliate in that short moment but to me...it felt like a lifetime.
In the span of seconds, I had the most horrid of visions flooding my mind. Flashes of a long forgotten past where thousands upon thousands of people suffered the worst kind of fate, desperately tried to survive only to be buried alive beneath the soil holding a grudges on all the living.
A broken taboo, a mistake no one should've made, the result of greed and avarice...it condemned countless lives and placed a terrible curse on the world...
It felt like all their suffering and emotions were mixed into a deep pool where I felt like drowning.
Desperate, I fought off the negative energy, tapping onto my inner strength persistently attacking it.
Like a fire burning with anger and resentment nothing I did could completly erase it.
"I can't do it...I can't remove their grudge, it's too strong!" I thought to myself when I thought of an alternative solution...
If I can't destroy it, then contain it and control it!
So I decided to seal it.

To the others it looked like Satiana was standing still having a stare off contest with the spectral creature. All undead monsters froze in motion giving an opportunity for the knights to strike and so they did.
However, no matter how much they sliced up the zombies, they just reattached themselves back up and the battle was dragging longer and longer.
Everything seemed desperate, not even Solaria's saint power could completly destroy them... All her blessings could do was Incenerate a few of them only so they could recover and restore themselves back, the temple knights and priests were struggling to protect her more than ever. Because her radiance was like a beacon attracting undead creatures all over towards her.
The situation was anything but good and dragging on was clearly the wrong move and no one knew what to do. Divine power didn't work, Sword aura was useless and mage-craft was barely making a dent!
However, when a stream of dark pink light started radiating from Satiana like sparks of electricity and morphed into a link of symbols intertwined, a phantom chain manifested itself tying the monsters dragging them lower and lower as Satiana chanted her incantation.
Post like hymn, the spirits in the forest reacted to her chanting, an aura of psychic powers washed over the ominous negative energy the woods were radiating.
The leaves slowly started turning green and the Rottens withered Trunks bursted with life and at the center of the forest, an obsidian colored obelisk bursted from the ground, chains tied around it.
And then she turned facing her commandes and said in a calm voice
