Call of She-Ra.jpg

A sword was delivered to me by private messenger. I didn't know at the time that not only was it from a parallel universe but that it was the incredibly famous "Sword of Protection" the mighty enchanted blade of the legendary She-Ra, twin sister of He-Man. The question that brings me to Eternia however, is why was it delivered to me. I have crossed paths with her through my adventures just once and it didn't exactly end well. * Actually I crossed paths with her impersonator...then her... it's long story. I stand on the bridge of Castle Grayskull, and I know full well what awaits inside... A powerful mage calleed simply "The Sorceress" the magic radiating from the mighty castle is almost palatable and while I do not fear magical energies, the very same magic granted a man and a woman near cosmic powers. The villains of Eternia have yet to show but I have enough information on this place to know that I shouldn't miss if Skeletor shows his skeletal face. The second question looming in the darkness is what happened to She-Ra/Adora. The phantasm will wait in orbit above the planet and I'll keep my hoverbike planetside to get around. as I approach the drawbridge of the mighty castle the sword's gem begins to glow ominously. Suddenly the drawbridge lowers and I can see an eerie green light emanating from within.
"The welcome wagon I guess? How very melodramatic."
"Enter Champion, do not fear you are perfectly safe within the walls of Castle Grayskull." Says a woman's voice from seemingly everywhere.
Nice words from the ghost voice and incidentally more melodrama. I'm holding a magical sword that belongs here so I figure it's not a setup.
I enter the cave-like interior as a large brightly colored eagle soars in from above circling until it reaches eye level at which point it turns into a very beautiful Solaran-Looking woman. She appears to be middle aged and has an air of wisdom about her that reminds me of the Black Scarab from my reality. She approaches slowly and greets me with a smile.
"Greetings champion. I am the Sorceress and I have summoned you here for a mission of great importance."
"Let me guess lady, She-Ra is missing and you want me to find her. Fair warning, I don't do freebies. Unless my entire galaxy or the universe itself is at stake."
"There is much at stake here. Perhaps all of Eternia or the universe itself."
"Bullshit lady. The two heavy hitters on your rock are Skeletor and that loser Hordak. Both of which should have been shot in the head ages ago but you guys are too goody goody to get the job done. "
"Be that as it may Obsidian Mask, the powers have told me that you are the one Eternia and Etherea needs right now."
"The powers? You Mean Odin, Zeus, Ra, and the rest? Yeah I'm familiar with them. They know my price as well. I'll save your friend, but it won't be for free. No money, jewels, and treasure don't mean shit to me."
"I see, well at least it can be said that you are incorruptible by mortal means. Very well the magics of Grayskull will be at your disposal but only once you have returned She-Ra here."
"I'd expect nothing less... I'll go interview the usual suspects... I'm sure Skeletor will be DYING to have a chat with me."
"I personally expect you to not drown Eternia in a river of blood."
"Hmph, you mortals are all the same... So bloody Merciful to those who plague you."
"Did you say...Mortals?"
"Yes, I did."
"Do you mean to say that you are..."
"Immortal, yes. I have lived far longer than you and I will be around long after you are gone. I will Return She-Ra t you assuming she yet lives."
"The sword Obsidian, is bound to Adora and pulses with her very life force. So long as the jewel shines she lives."
With that, I take my leave and make way for my next stop... Snake Mountain. |
