"You mean... him?"

"The..."

Snow paused, and thought for a moment,
"Korah."

"Yes, Korah." spoke the Imperialix.

"He will be the one."

"The one...? What do you mean, the one?"

"But... That won't come for a long time."

"What of now...? As of right now the most important thing to worry about is the task at hand. We can focus on the boy later."

"Unless of Co-"

Snow felt an odd tingling sensation course through his body, and he immediately collapsed.

"Snow!" Norrenus spoke concerned.

Completely delirious, Snow was unsure what was happening to him.

The pendant he wore around his neck began to emit a foul-smelling black mist, and it travelled towards Norrenus Quickly.

Red eyes appeared within the black mist and it looked Norrenus over. It hissed and returned to Snow.

"What...?"

Snow stood, as the black mist began to engulf him, trying to take over his body.

"Not now... Not now of all times...!"

Norrenus paused.


"Could it have been...." He said.

"Snow, was that what I know it was?" asked Norrenus.

"It's... A beast."
Snow said trying to resist the influence of the black mist,

"Its haunted me for years. All because of this Pendant... I can't take it off, it's time locked."

Snow lifted a red crystal out of his pocket and it resonated with several others in the hilt of his blade, a light engulfed his body causing the mist to dissipate and return from whence it came.

He returned the red shard to his pocket from whence it came.

"It is, what you think it is."

"I've known for longer than you realize."

"The Heart of Ultimaxion."
spoke the Imperialix concerned.

"All the powers of the most evil creature ever to exist, all in a crystal."
Norrenus stated.

"I knew, you already were told of the story, I peeked inside your mind and your heart, and saw you knew the beast."
said Norrenus

"But explain to me how, as i won't peek inside your mind for the answers."

"It began several hundred years ago."

"This may sound difficult to grasp at first... But... Know this, I will not speak a word of lie in this chronicle."

"My mother gave me this pendant. She entrusted it to me on her deathbed. It is a family heirloom, in fact, the Taradien family has been tasked with its protection for millenia. It is the Darkheart pendant, and it is sought after by many for it's great power. After I left my family, I met with a girl, a Chu named Mimosa, and Kam, the ferret. Shortly after the pendant began to react with my body forcing me into a corrupted state. I met with Angell, and Zhalice, and since I was a danger to my allies with this happening... Mimosa sealed the Pendant."

Snow took a breath,
"However... this was only temporary."

"I fell in love with Zhalice, a goddess of light, and together as a group we ascended the pillar of sky and each gained an irrevocable rule free wish. I... Wasted my wish. My brother found us, and joined our company... but he was, working with the Czar Dragon... and tried to kill us. He failed... and I killed him. With my rage the seal on the pendant broke."

"Time passed, we fought the Czar Dragon. And I died."

"And my lords, Koltes and Vectos brought you back from the Spirit World."
spoke Norrenus.

He paused to think.

"Snow, I know that it is your heirloom, but...The Darkheart is heart of Ultimaxion; The Beast...The most powerful evil ever to exist, That is how your power has gained so much, it has only been you're will power that has stopped it from taking you as it's vessel."
The Imperialix spoke gravely.


"You must dispose of it when it's power grows to powerful....otherwise, you will lose everything to that demon."

"Ah... If it were only that simple."

"True they did bring me back. But, it was not their choice."

"Zhalice used her wish, to bring me back, and made me an Eternal -a half god, a guardian of the Remikian Crystals, that the Czar was after, with that in place we destroyed him."

"Afterwords, I gave up much of my power and created the city in the sky along with the Time stone."

"I Attempted to destroy the Darkheart using the timestone, but only ended up quantum locking it. Forcing it to be with me eternally unless I am killed. If that does happen, you may feel free to do with it what you will. But know, that as long as I have the remikian crystals..."

Snow removed the large red crystal from his pocket and displayed his hilt to Norrenus.

"It's power cannot take over."

"After that... Zhalice and I had two children... and the rest is history."

"I see." said Norrenus.

"And you had a son and a daughter, is that correct?"
asked the Imperialix.

"Yes, my son left long ago... and My daughter cast me out. She became the leader of the Angelis City of the Sky."
