Sacrifice of the guardian

(Damien)

When Sophia told me what was going on, I immediately went to find King Alastair so that I could give him the details. 

The war was going to take place here at the castle.

The only way to get to the Grove Of Echoes was to open a portal, and the starting point for that portal was here. 

"We have to do everything that we can to stop him from entering the castle. We have to warn the people so that they can hide." King Alastair said. I nodded my head, agreeing with him.

"I am connected to the Grove Of Echoes. The tree, it somehow chose me for a reason." I started to say as I looked at the mark on my hand. 

"I hope you're not saying what I think you are." King Alastair replied. If there was any other way, then I would have used that against the demon. 

We were gathering allies to fight in this war, yet it felt like we were outnumbered.
