Six months passed and Alicia and Grandpa Mu were only a month away from reaching Phantasia. They did not make many stops, only a few to check out the things that made Alicia curious. She had gotten to look at nebulas and even suns up close. The journey thus far had been very fun for her.
"Hey what's that?" Alicia pointed at an object off into the distance. It was a floating space island many of which she had seen before during her travels but this ti there was a large castle built on top of it.
"This is" Grandpa Mu's eyes opened wide when he saw the object. "Alicia I have no idea if you were born lucky or not but sothing like this is rarely seen! This is a relic from ages past!"
"Relic from ages past?" Alicia was confused. How did Grandpa Mu know what it was with just one look? Was it not part of so exploded planet or sothing?
"When I say Relic from ages past, I an it is a relic from a higher being that basically made their ho base on a floating island. So of the higher beings did this to stash away their things and hide them in regions not touched due to the low level of civilization. This one is ancient because the barrier that should have been surrounding it is now gone. See how the plants are frozen solid?" Grandpa Mu explained.
"So in other words there might be good stuff inside?" Alicia was a little bit excited because now she had a strong interest in other civilizations since she had been traveling through space. So to find sothing left behind by a higher being was truly good fortune.
"Yes possibly. It might have already been found and raided as well. But rember these places normally have so kind of defensive asures inside." Grandpa Mu warned. He rembered a few tis when exploring places, he had run into so near death experiences because he was not playing it safe.
"I will. But I wonder which race left this behind..." Alicia pondered as they made their way to the castle.
The whole island was covered in large, tall, frozen foliage that towered over the both of them. Strangely enough, although the plants were not dead, they seed to have evolved to put up with the frozen temperatures. Alicia did not dare touch the plants since she did not know where they ca from and did not recognize any of them. But Grandpa Mu did reassure her that the plants here were not originally supposed to thrive in freezing temperatures.
The castle itself was made out of so kind of brick and mortar from what Alicia could tell. The castle looked pretty dull, more like a dieval period style castle you would see back on earth. Just on a much larger scale. By larger it could be said to be almost one hundred tis larger. The doors alone to enter the castle were so big that Alicia and Grandpa Mu looked like ants standing in front of it.
"Grandpa Mu is there a race of giants?" Alicia asked after looking at the tall door.
Grandpa Mu's face turned black. "There actually is And they are also one of the strongest of the higher beings. Their strength alone without needing to add in any of their abilities is almost on par with 'them' They are the Orgarian race. They seed to have been one of the first races created by the first origin. And they are sowhat like you and can cultivate two different kinds of powers. But their strength and numbers are two large so 'they' do not dare to provoke them. Although clashes happen on both sides the two groups are keeping it as friendly as possible."
"Grandpa Mu, you keep saying 'they' and 'them'. Who is this 'they' and 'them'?" Alicia was getting sick of being left out of the loop. She needed a better understanding of who was after her. but up until now, no one was really explaining anything to her.
Letting out a sigh Grandpa Mu figured it was ti to explain a bit more. "'They' and 'them' are the group that is after you. Their actual na is the Creators. They are basically the overlords of this universe until the Origin returns. Only then will they be pushed back and have to loosen their control on this universe. The sa goes for other universes as well."
"I see..." This explained a lot. A group that held absolute power over the universe would not want to let go of those rights so easily. But the Origin was too powerful so they could only lay low until the new Origin died and returned to the cycle of reincarnation. Only then would the Creators reerge and take back their role of rulers. They wanted to target her in order to kill her because she had the potential to beco the right or left hand of the Origin. Alicia wondered if there was a group more powerful than the creators but still weaker than the Origin. The images of the woman and old man suddenly popped in her head. If there was any group more powerful it would be them.
"We can talk more on this when we get back to Phantasia. For now, let's slowly go through this place. We might be able to find so good stuff. The Orgarians were known to have huge advancents in technology and magic." Grandpa Mu hoped he could find sothing that will help Alicia later down the road, even if it only helped a little bit.
"Okay let's go then. But when we get back I want to know more. But for now, let's hope we find sothing good. " With a nod after saying her words, Alicia and Grandpa Mu pushed on the large door to the castle.
