THE HEXAGONAL PRISM
THE HEXAGONAL PRISM
"Your Ziggurat will not send you back home, but it may be able to guide your way in this magic corridor," Baste told me.
"That is good advice. Thanks", I replied to her.
"Remember, you must prepare for the Coming Calamities", Baste told me.
"Damnit, what the hell are the Calamities?" I asked Baste.
Baste and several wise people warned me on many occasions about the Coming Calamities. I've suffered many calamities before, even calamities that destroyed worlds. But yet, those were not at the scale that the Valhalla goddess warned me about.
"You must be careful from now on and grow stronger. I cannot help you every time. This could be the last time you will see of me for a very long time", Baste told me regrettably.
"Wait, I can't survive in the violent rift for long. The energy there will kill me", I asked Baste.
"Use the Hexagon", she replied to me before she slowly disappeared.
The multi-dimensional objects in the endless Valhalla began spreading out again and floated in all directions. Soon, Baste was gone and I returned to the Vortex of magical corridor.
"Forget it. I'll find out about the Calamities eventually", I told myself.
-----
I was still lost inside the magical corridor between realms after meeting with Baste. As she promised, she didn't offer me any help at all. My body was still being ripped apart by the violent forces in this broken space rift.
Then I remembered what Baste advised me.
I quickly summoned my Hell Tank from my magical ring.
"What the hell are you doing? Why did you bring us out with this bloody turbulence in the space rift?" Sara asked me angrily.
Our Hell Tank couldn't survive the violent energies of the rift for very long, but I had no choice. I needed Sara's help.
"I met Baste", I said without explaining.
"Did you meet the gods of Valhalla. That is fantastic. We are saved", Rinna said.
"Baste is not going to save us. Only Sara can", I replied.
"What the hell can I do in this space rift?" Sara asked me.
"Remember you once took a Hexagon artifact or device from the alien spaceship in Ragusa. Baste said it contains ancient magic or technology that could save us and only you can use it", I told Sara.
Sara thought about the matter in nano-seconds before replying.
"I've studied the Hexagon device, but I couldn't understand its technology. I couldn't use it", Sara told us.
"What if you consult the Temple of Magic? You have the magic of the Temple of Magic inside of you?" I asked her.
"There is no magic in the Temple of Magic that is compatible to the Hexagon device", she replied.
"There must be something that you can do if Baste says so", Rinna added.
"Shields at 10%"
The Shields on our Hell Tank were breaking up. Once the shield breaks, the structure of the ship will be gone in no time.
"Damnit, we don't have time", I complained.
"I can link the Hexagon to my Temple of Magic and see if I can control or activate it", Sara told us.
"Please do so quickly", Rinna asked.
Suddenly, to our shock and surprise, our Hell Tank was surrounded by a powerful force field of some kind shaped in hexagon- a Hexagonal Prism.
"Hexagonal Prism"
The Hexagonal Prism protected our ship from the turbulence and violence in the space rift.
"Damn, you are quick", I said and commented about Sara's efficiency in activating the Hexagon device.
"My mind processes data faster than you can blink", Sara replied to me.
Sara managed to link the Hexagon device to her Temple of Magic circuitry in her body. She previously absorbed or replicated the Temple of Magic's secrets into her body.
"Did you manage to control the Hexagon device?" Rinna asked her.
"Yes, this Hexagon device is not magic although the magic circuitry of the Temple of Magic could access its program. I'll need to study the device further to be able to unravel it. Meanwhile, casting the Hexagonal Prism around us is all that I can do", Sara replied.
"That is a good start", I commented.
"That is fantastic. We'll live because of it", Ratatouille added.
Although we could survive in the turbulence, we were still lost in the space rift created by the Mages of Prolis using their space traveling vessel.
"Now, how do we get back to the real world?" I asked.
Rinna studied the magic in the rift carefully now that we had the time to do so. The magic here was unknown to her although she knew where to start.
Rinna was a priestess of the Valhalla for thousands of years and during that time she learned much about its magic.
"What else did Baste say to you?" Rinna asked me.
"Beside the Hexagon part and about calamities, nothing much", I replied to her.
"Perhaps we already have the tools with us to return from this rift if Baste would leave you without lending further help. The Valhalla usually refrain from helping us although they will provide us with the tools", Rinna told us.
"What about the Ziggurat inside my Valhalla Crust?" I asked her.
When I became the prophet of Baste in my previous life, I obtained a special space in my consciousness that we call the Valhalla Crux. It was a magical space within me that contains the artifacts and Tesseracts of the Valhalla.
Among the Tesseracts that I have in my Valhalla Crux was a Ziggurat.
"Let me check your Ziggurat", Rinna asked me.
Rinna placed her hand on my forehead as she explored the magic in my Valhalla Crux. She quickly established a connection with my Ziggurat.
"I cannot create a Stargate here with your Ziggurat, but I can sense the Ziggurat giving me directions", Rinna told us to our surprise.
"What are we going to do next?" Sara asked.
"We follow Rinna's direction", I replied to her.
Our Hell Tanks surprisingly managed to move in this magical corridor not through its engines or magic. Sara could move the Hexagonal Prism that she created with the Hexagon device and managed to drive our ship through this space rift.
