Voidborne

Chapter 3 “The Lightborne”

We had made it to the mountain, and we did not expect to see voidborne attacking the mountain tribe. I sprinted into the battle, launching arrows at the voidborne. I noticed my arrows weren’t doing too much damage, but it could kill a voidborne if I hit them enough. There were more and more voidborne, and this fight seemed impossible to fight at this point. Suddenly, there was flash of light, and then bright, humanoid shapes with wings darted around fighting the voidborne. The voidborne died instantly from the weapons that the strange light things used. Eventually, all of the voidborne had been defeated. The light creatures came up to us, and started to speak.

“That was only a small amount of voidborne, but you humans do not wield weapons of light like we do.” One of them said.

“Who are you?” I calmly asked.

“We are the lightborne, enemies of voidborne. We have had lots of conflict lately, much more than usual. We do not come here usually, but the void has come here so we must follow it.” The lightborne replied. I could see the tribe leader of the mountain tribe speaking with a lightborne, so I walked up to them.

“How can we trust you exactly?” Said the mountain tribe leader. I patiently waited for their conversation to end, and eventually the tribe leader turned to me.

“What is it you want?” He said.

“I’m from forest tribe. There’s voidborne, and it’s been requested we make an alliance will every tribe. We were to come here and form an alliance with your tribe.” I said.

“These voidborne are very strong, so maybe it would be a good decision.” The tribe leader said. He stood there, thinking about the alliance. Finally, he agreed to it.

“Come with us, we will get you to safety.” A lightborne told us. Suddenly, voidborne came up from the ground.

“Voidborne!” Somebody yelled. A voidborne killed the lightborne that had told us to come with it, and I took the chance to take its weapon. I stabbed the voidborne, and it dissolved instantly. I dashed towards another voidborne, cutting it in half. There was a huge wave of voidborne, so this fight was gonna be long. I saw a huge voidborne, and it looked at me and roared. It then charged at me, almost hitting me as I leapt out of the way. The voidborne beast had stopped and stood there catching its breath. I charged at it, jumping on to it and stabbing it in the back. The voidborne beast dissolved instantly like the two other voidborne. I noticed the lightborne weren’t darting around anymore, and now they were fighting normally. Two voidborne came at me, one attempting to hit me with its sword. I parried their blade, and I felt something push me away. The other voidborne kicked me a few feet, and then it proceeded to charge at me. I stabbed it, and dashed to the other one and finally finished it. There weren’t anymore voidborne now, had we defeated them all?

“We must get out of here, now!” A lightborne said. Suddenly, there was a flash of light, and I was in a a shiny area, with clouds and pillars made of marble.
