Year 1999 AGS Underhaven Calendar
*Just after the Makers and the Elders entered the temple.
"Man. That was the first time I felt scared and in awe towards someone other than my dad." Malakel spoke. "The Makers have that in them where you feel such things even just by their presence alone. When they began speaking, I had goosebumps." Tamael added. "Your sister also did a good job there, Gala. I can't believe she's just 17." Equirel spoke. "Cara's the gifted one in the family." Gala replied. "You should aim to be like her Gala, you never know till you try, right. You might have the same talent. Since both of you are in the same bloodline and all." Tamael said to inspire Gala. "Cara loves me. She told me one time that she'll shoulder all the responsibilities of our house, to allow me to enjoy my childhood and have fun." Gala spoke kindly of her sister. "What a kind sister. I wish I also had siblings." Equirel replied. "Since most of our parents were from the generation before us, the gap between siblings should not be that far. Except for Malakel here whose father is Elder Sandalphel that is." Leona suddenly added. "Having siblings that are 200 years apart from you is kind of difficult. They are too strict in training. I can barely get some rest. Not that I dislike it. Haha." Malakel replied with a joke. "Good thing we are Templars. I heard that Mortals and Shades abuse that kind of relationship. Getting high and mighty because of the authority of their siblings." Tamael spoke with disdain. "They are born like that. They can't help it." Daniel replied. "The streets sure have many gossips. Some of it are true and some are not. All of you should examine it first before believing. Well, not that I blame you for wanting to know some information from the outside world. The Academy will teach you all the truth. Just wait." Daniel further added.
"Gala! Leona! Guys! How have you been? How's the descent of the Gods?" Cara walked past the crowd and interacted with the group. "You are amazing sister. To be given the chance to announce the arrival of the Gods, I am so proud of you!" Gala replied. "Elder Gabriel is just self-less. He said it is for nurturing the current generation." Cara replied. "Was it tiring to use that much power of Divine Presence?" Tamael quickly asked Cara out of curiosity. "Tamael. Always the curious one. Yes, it is tiring. Although I was chosen, my level is still just virtuoso chalkos, just three levels above the weakest level, which is acolyte chalkos, of the first tier. The others in Divine Presence clan and the noble creatures, like the cloud whales, were supporting my signal for it to reach to the entrances and the far end of Underhaven." Cara clearly elaborated. "You are the star of this generation Cara. Do your best not to disappoint the Elders. I know you are making your parents proud." Daniel spoke. "Thank you, great seer. It is an honor to be praised by you." Cara respectfully said to Daniel.
"Equirel, how's your mother, Lady Natasha?" "She prepared food at home before I got here and said that after, she will be part of those organizing the Legion Captains of the Clan of White Flames being held as reserve." "Your mother is much more talented than I am. To be given the rank of Legion Commander of the strongest clan even though she was just part of the generation just before us." "The best part is, she is the best mother in all of Underhaven. I don't care what her rank is. She teaches me a lot about the world. Of course, only ones allowed for a non-student. That's why I love my mother." "You are born of very talented parents, Equirel. You do know in all Underhaven's history, only your father is granted the special authority as the Great Seer. You should…" "I know. I know. To start taking things seriously. What's wrong with you pargons? I've heard that from almost all of you all day!" "She is right Equirel. Your talents will be wasted if you remain lazy." Tamael suddenly interrupted. "Doing things half-heartedly all the time will not do you good. You know, honor the Makers by reaching your full potential." Malakel also interrupted. "Hey. I'm not lazy. I'm just smart at doing things. Efficiency goes hand in hand with effort." "Hahaha. You should try applying to be one of the advisers of the Elders in the future, son. You don't run out of excuses. Hahaha" Daniel laughed while tapping his son's back. "Efficiency is good. But at your age, better first stick with effort, son." Daniel further added.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The way I see it, things still remained as it is." "Yes, Lord D the vibes of these elders remain the same. Haha." "Still maintaining the circle of truth. I like it." "In behalf of all the elders here, we thank you for your observations and kind remarks, Lord D and Lord L." Elder Gabriel interrupted and spoke.
"You also remain as cheerful as ever Lord L, it seems you never needed to slumber in the first place." Elder Abaddel remarked. "Your dry humor is always borderline insulting and praising Abaddel. Haha." Lord L replied. "You know him Lord L, sometimes you feel insulted but actually when you think about it, it was praise." Elder Sandalphel added. "You tend to realize such things when you're always on the receiving end of such jokes, Sandalphel." Elder Michael remarked then laughed.
"I like when you behave like this Templars. You are all brothers. Laugh, tease each other and have fun but always look out for each other." Lord D spoke. "What you said reminds us of the true reason for our bond Lord D. That is, we are all comrades fighting for the same purpose." Elder Gabriel spoke. "Gabriel, you're as uptight as ever I see. A thousand years of slumber and you're still the same. When I try to look for any negative changes in the emotions of the Templars, you give me comfort Gabriel. It reassures me, that all of you are still the same." Lord D replied.
"Anyway, Michael, why have you not spoken directly to us yet?" Lord L asked. "My dear Maker, I have a bad feeling, a premonition. My instinct is telling me that things might not go so well as we think." Elder Michael replied. "Trust your instincts Michael, either of Blue Lightning or the White Flames is not your greatest weapon. It is but your instincts. How many wars and battles have you won because of those." Lord L truthfully spoke to Elder Michael. "But Michael, this time you and your brothers must deal with it all on your own. We cannot risk interacting with the Domcreans this time, we are still observing and testing changes within us." Lord D spoke seriously. "We understand that your observations on any emotional changes within you, the Makers, take precedence. I cannot even comprehend the trouble if Lord L and Lord D will behave like the Domcreans in the future." Elder Michael added.
"You have the skills, together with your brothers to solve this problem, Michael." Lord L touched Elder's Michael shoulder. "Raziel, what's the news on Bastion?"
"Lord L, there seems to be nothing wrong. But that is what is wrong, having nothing significantly wrong outside Underhaven means something is really and terribly wrong happening there." Elder Raziel spoke. "Then let's think this through. Are there any changes in Luminos?" Lord D asked Elder Raziel. "The humans although have the shortest lifespan are getting dangerous with their technologies. Their cunning knows no bounds. Especially their underground organizations. Even human kings and emperors allied to us are having trouble observing their actions. Although they have the numbers in terms for intelligence." Elder Raziel explained the unusual things very seriously. "We already know that not all humans are evil. There are those that are benevolent." Lord L spoke. "Yes, Lord L. Some of them help us, but not all. We all know that in Luminos, although of the same race, some kingdoms and empires are different from one another. Each have their own stance and different culture." Elder Raziel further added.
"But some of them are sponsoring these enemies, as some provide their assistance to us." Elder Azrael spoke. "Many of our kind died because of their human schemes." Elder Gabriel added. "Some were captured and some were even tortured for information." Elder Azrael spoke with rage. "Templar body and soul can be healed, but their minds after are not the same. Others when rescued, died not able to reach camp." Elder Rafael spoke.
"We know how evil emotions can manifest in Domcreans, regardless of race, but we also know their potential for good. Do you remember the champion who prevented a war between the two continents?" Lord D spoke. "King Charlemagne of Dalia." Elder Abaddel identified the champion. "Yes, he, a human, had his unified forces of different domcreans races fight both sides at the Ugnaeyum, the wide land bridge connecting Luminos and Unlighted continents. He showed Bastion that Domcreans, also known as Mortals and Shades can work together." Lord D further added. "He basically unified the two continents, Luminos and Unlighted, into what we currently have. Even I can't do that." Elder Michael spoke. "Let's be real Michael, you do things differently. You inspire and put fear, that man puts hope. It doesn't mean you're less capable." Elder Abaddel reminded Elder Michael.
"Aside from Humans, are there any races worrying you in Luminos?" Lord D further asked Elder Raziel. "We have heard of rumors. An underground organization spanning all throughout Domains. Both in Luminos and Unlighted." Elder Raziel added. "Our intel informed us they already infiltrated political systems of kingdoms in Luminos and the nations in Unlighted." Elder Azrael added. "Some of my 8th Legion spies in Domains informed me that there were military technologies stolen. Some even said they discovered new tech not seen in all of Bastion. What we are facing is the real deal." Elder Sandalphel spoke. "I got to say Sandalphel, we've known each other for so long, it amazes me all the time that for a muscle-head like you to have one of the best intelligences among the elders. Incredible." Elder Abaddel spoke then huffed. "That's the key, no one doubts muscle heads Abaddel." Elder Sandalphel replied.
"My healers in the Domains also said recently there have been cases of soul poisoning. I am still not sure if such things are related." Elder Raphael spoke. "There is someone or something trying to move against us." Elder Gabriel noted.
"Aside from the Domcreans, there have been words from my spies that the noble creatures were behaving suspiciously. Their movements were too ordinary for their races. I am referring to the dragons and dragonoids." Elder Uriel spoke. "Yes, I have also received the same reports." Elder Michael added.
"The Domains' noble creatures are haughty and strong like you. They see Domcreans as inferior to them. The Universal Spirit made them that way. They won't work with them unless something compels them to do so." Lord L spoke. "As all of these have been presented, we can conclude that there are new dangers coming to the Templars." Lord D added. "These are the times where your skills will be tested Templars. I agree with Lord D, we cannot aid you this time. Greater trouble might come if we interact more with the Domcreans." Lord L added.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Legion commander. We have been on the alert all this time. Any news from Elder Michael?" A legion captain asked Natasha of the White Flame. "No divine presence has been transmitted to me yet. Elder Michael is always on time. He will contact me when everything is done or if he needs something from us." Natasha spoke.
"Legion commander is it true that there are rising threats from both the Domcreans and noble creatures." a white flame soldier asked. "These Domcreans always are problems. Every era, different tricks." A second white flame soldier spoke. "From what I've heard from Elder Michael, yes. These are dangerous bunch, especially the humans." Natasha replied. "The shortest dogs always bark the loudest. It's irritating. However, dogs are cute. Humans… Not so much. I prefer dogs." Laiossel, the legion commander of blue lightning, added while walking towards the group. "Laios how is the clan of blue lightning?" Natasha asked. "We're always prepared. We don't want to shame the honor of the champion of pargons don't we?" Laiossel asked Natasha. "Haha. That's why we are always good at working together. We think alike." Natasha remarked. "I think that's why we were chosen by Elder. The right arm and the left arm should be in sync. Just a comparison I might say. Not saying that we are the arms. I don't want to insult Chromel, the right hand himself." Laiossel remarked.
"Natasha, you were always calm and collected. Something happened. Did Elder Michael spoke something new to you?" "None Laios, I am just feeling a bit sick." "The great youngest legion commander of all the Templar clans also does get sick. You timed it on rather an undesirable time." "We don't plan when we'll get sick Laios." "I know, I'm just curious if is it fate. You don't get sick, ever." "Fate? I might as well say so. Fate plays its tricks always at an undesirable time." Natasha spoke gloomily. "Natasha, you know you can trust me, right?" "Laios if anything happens to me, promise me to always guide my son Equirel." "If anything happens to you, I might as well be dead already since you are stronger than me. Jokes aside, of course. I also like the kid, as talented as the mother I say. Although not as wise as the father. Haha." "I've got a bad feeling today Laios. Especially about this unknown underground organization who's trying to conquer the world." "Don't let fear get to you that much. You will see Equirel grow to become a great young pargon." "I hope so my friend. But I'll haunt you from the afterlife if you don't keep your promise." "Sure, sure. I always keep my promise, don't I?" "Don't you dare break your promise on this; I'll really haunt you." "Haaa… friendship, always gives me many things."

*After the meeting of the Makers and Elders
The Makers and the Elders slowly went out of the Temple.
"Lord L do the honor of first speaking to them. I'll also speak after." "Lord D you always give me pressure. But good timing. I wanted to speak to them first." "Lord L, you're the cheerful one between the both of us. Better to give the good news first rather than the bad one, right?" "Yes. Yes. I agree. I believe we got to make a good impression first. Haha."
"Everyone siiiilence!" Elder Michael shouted then paused. "The Makers are going to speak." Elder Michael spoke then everyone went silent in an instant.
"Templars, pargons, or saints. Whatever you deemed fit to address yourselves. After a thousand years, we again are meeting. Some of you are hearing my voice for the first time. It is okay. The Templars stood their ground since Bastion's creation. Everyone adhered to the rules given to your race until now. For that, we are very proud. Like how a father is proud of his children's achievements. Troubled times passed for thousands of years. Yet here you are now, still shouting in joy. Still honoring your Makers. New problems may arise in the future, but we believe all of you will still be the Templars we are seeing at this moment. Lord D and I have never regretted bestowing upon all of you, our powers. Light and Dark. Use it well my children." Lord L spoke proudly to the millions of Templars standing in front of him.
"Lord L is right. We never regretted our decision to trust you all with our powers. In every era, new kind of trouble arises. I am afraid, like the last millennia, again we will not be able to help. You may all already know, we the Makers have started to show signs of adapting to the characteristics of the Domcreans. Lord L and I are trying to avoid that. A millennium might look insignificant to us but know this, we truly care and understand all of your worries and fears. Understand that the Elders are well suited to the job in our stead. Trust in them as you trust in us." Lord D spoke the bad news.
"Your Elders, especially Michael and I, are doing our best to maintain the glory and honor of the Templars. As it were in thousands of years. This 10,000th year and onwards, no trouble will weaken us. No trouble will destroy us. For it is not because we are the strongest, but it is because all of us are united." Elder Gabriel spoke.
"I, Michael, your champion will not allow trouble to overcome us Templars. We will put fear in the hearts of our enemies and awe in the hearts of our friends. Our enemies will fear us while our friends would be stand by us." Elder Michael assured the Templars.
"Kruhay! Glory to the Realm!" Elder Abaddel went to the front and shouted at the crowd.
"Kruhay! Kruhay! Kruhay!" the crowd shouted.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*While the Templars are shouting in unison.
"Michael, who is that blue haired kid at the front of the crowd?" Lord L asked Elder Michael.
"My lord, the blue haired kid with black eyes? That is Daniel's son. Daniel's the great seer. The first. He was from the previous generation. Before this one."
"The Fate is strong in that kid." Lord D added. "Keep an eye on him. I see potential." Lord L spoke.
"Yes. Lord L. His mother is Natasha. The prodigy from the previous generation. We assume she's the strongest Legion Commander in history." Elder Michael informed the Makers.
"Great lineage makes great Templars. We want it, but we don't force such things. Everything must go on its own course." Lord D spoke to Elder Michael. "Make sure one of the Elders mentors that kid, Michael." Lord L advised Elder Michael. "As you wish, Lord L."
"Divine presence currently on duty, inform the Templars that the Makers will now go to the Cave of Insight." Elder Gabriel ordered.
"Templars, before leaving Underhaven the Makers will visit the Universal Spirit. Wait patiently because we will also honor their departure back to their heavens. The festivities will start after." A Divine Presence clan member announced.
"Abaddel, could you take charge. Gabriel and I will go with the Makers to meet the Universal Spirit." Elder Michael asked Elder Abaddel a favor.
"Of course, it would be my honor. Kindly tell the Spirit for me to give me more black flame recruits in the next awakening. Haha." "You know I can't do that." "Well, it was worth a shot. I mean Michael, the champion of templars, might have a chance to at least change his mind, right? "Okay. Okay Abaddel. I'll try. But I can't promise you that he will listen." "Better than nothing, I guess."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Michael, when was the last time you visited this place?" "Must be before the slumber of the gods Lord L." "I know templars are only allowed to enter here if they are with us, the Makers. I presume you also want something from the Spirit. Tell me and I might recommend it to him." "I don't have one Lord L, but Abaddel wanted to have more Black Flames recruits next awakening. The clan of Blue Lightning and the clan of White Flames already have enough members." "What a generous leader. Okay, I will speak of it to the Spirit. I don't think the spirit is capable of it, but you don't know, change is the only constant thing."
"Don't make promises that you can't surely keep Lord L." "Lord D, he's an old friend and it has been a millennium since we met him. I'll just ask. Nothing is wrong with a little favor. I mean Michael have served us remarkably all these years." "Of all the years he has served and not asking for something in return. Now he's asking a favor for a friend. Remarkable indeed. If only domcreans behave like Michael, how peaceful Bastion should have been."
"We are nearing the Spirit, my lords." Elder Gabriel spoke.
"My lords, what do you plan to talk with him this time?" Elder Gabriel asked randomly.
"Well, I'd personally like to have idea if the Spirit have activated new special awakeners in Bastion. Also, I've seen someone special earlier. I'd like to ask the Universal Spirit about him." "Lord L, you mean Daniel's child? Michael spoke of it earlier." "Yes, I haven't seen that much potential since you two." "By the Makers, he is that special?" Elder Michael interrupted.
"You all might witness the coming of a new arch templar, one that was not directly made by us. An arch templar made only by lineage." Lord D surprised both Elders.
"Once we pass these 4 pillars, behave yourselves Michael and Gabriel. The Spirit is as important as us. You must show your utmost respect as always." Lord D reminded both Elders.
-----
"Ey. Spirit. You look as old as last time. Haha." Lord L greeted the Spirit.
"Still as cheeky as ever, Lord L." The Spirit spoke in an elderly and shaky tone.
"You still look very wise and contemplative, Spirit." Lord D spoke.
"Thank you, Lord D. Oh my. This time it's Michael and Gabriel. How long has it been? Hmmm." The Spirit spoke.
"Two millennia for me, Honored Spirit." Elder Michael replied.
"Five millennia ago, for me Honored Spirit. It has been a long time. That was during Before the Slumber, Honored Spirit." Elder Gabriel replied.
"Ah, yes. It was Abaddel and Sandalphel last time. Those two brats are quite the pair. Playful and loud." The Spirit replied.
"Actually, Abaddel has requested if you can increase the number of black flames awakeners next time. Can you do it?" Lord L playfully remarked.
"You know, I can't do that Lord L. I base the awakening on the activation of the individual's affinity themselves. I can't force something that's not suited for them. Even if I want to." The Spirit replied.
"Oh, so your powers remain the same all these years. I feel happy but disappointed at the same time. I asked Michael if he had any request for you. He told me Abaddel's. So here we are." Lord L added.
"I see. A request coming from Michael himself. That is very rare indeed. 10,000 years and I have not received a single request." "Don't trouble yourself Honored Spirit, if it is too much, I won't insist." "I can do something different. Let's see… What if I inform you in advance today which of Elder Abaddel's children will likely awaken golden black flames instead. Since it is not in my power to activate a gift if it's not in the individual's affinity. Is it okay?" "Giving such a gift would honor me, Honored Spirit. I sense troubled times are coming and we need all the help that we can get." "I see. You are worried since most templar awakeners are placed under the minor tribes." "Yes, Honored Spirit."
"Abaddel's lucky since most young Templars right now seem more likely to awaken the golden black flames." The Spirit mentioned.
"How about you Gabriel? Any request?" "I have no request, honored spirit. But I would just like to ask a question." "Go ahead." "The minor tribes have no elder that governs them. Is there any chance that a potential awakener can in the future?"
"A very pertinent question. I suppose you are here Lord L and Lord D because you took notice of that kid?" The Spirit asked.
"Yes, you are right Spirit." "That kid has the greatest potential since the Elders were created. But he has key flaws that affects his potential." "And what is that?" "He is too talented. He achieves things easily that he lacks motivation to put the effort. He does things without thinking even though he has the potential to strategize." "But isn't that a common weakness of youth?" "Yes, a common weakness but not all overcome." "Is that all, honored spirit?" Michael interrupted.
"So, his weakness is he lacks motivation?" Lord L sarcastically asked. "No. He is impulsive, stubborn, overconfident and codependent on the wisdom of his father." The Spirit replied frankly. "I see. That is indeed troublesome." Lord L replied. "With guidance we can help the child." Lord D added. "That is all that I can say. Remember, I can only see his life through the universal eye until he is 12 and before his death. If his weakness remains after 12 years old. I am not sure what his future will be like. Although I can still see his affinities, once awakened it is up to him to develop skills. Knowing one's affinity is only useful before awakening. Also, the Elders can't come here anytime they want for advice anyway. Since you Lord L and Lord D will be in your slumber." The Spirit added.
"The universal eye. It is indeed remarkable how if our powers and spirits are combined it creates entirely different things." "It amazes me as well Lord L, even we have no such ability."
"How about the Domcreans, Spirit." Lord D asked politely. "There is someone special in the race of the vampires, it has been long since such irregularity happened." "Continue, it piqued my interest." "Yes, a vampire princess has been born with 2 eye marks, coming from her parents, merged. The last one happened millennia ago during the age of Before the Slumber. Such things are signs of greatness. She is of the same age as Equirel."
"I see. Are there anyone else?" Lord D asked. "All the races have potential special awakeners. The surprising fact is that all of them are about the same age as Equirel. Even the templars have special awakeners aside from Equirel. Remember when I talked about Abaddel's children? I see and sense someone special will be born in his bloodline." The Spirit replied. "Then henceforth, we will call them as the "blessed generation". May their fate bring good tidings in the future of Bastion."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You might be wondering what Cara meant earlier about my mother being just from the generation before us. We templars have a very long lifespan in human standards. We live for 2,500 years on average except for the elders which seems to be immortals. When we grow old our hairs and skins are the only parts that grow old. Our bodies maintain its attributes as if still in our prime.
Templars have procreation periods which last for a maximum of 19 years every 200 years. This is made possible through an infertility spell in the Temple created by the Universal Spirit. This spell is only removed when 1st a templar is in Underhaven and 2nd after the 200-year timespan is reached. My mom was the generation just before us.
I know this because this is one of the many pieces of information taught to us during homeschool.
"Look the Makers are back!" I heard someone in the crowd shout.
The crowd again cheered when the Makers arrived.
"Daniel, come with us for a moment" Elder Michael called my dad. "Wow!" I was very surprised. I did not know Elder Michael and my father were friends. Or are they just calling him for some reason?
"Wait with your friends here son. I'm just gonna talk with your hero for a bit. Haha!" my father told me. "Are you friends with him dad? I never knew!" I replied. "You should have known already that your dad is also a big shot, or did the surprise make you forget that? Anyway, stay here." My father added.
"Equirel, your father is friends with Elder Michael?!" Malakel asked me in surprise. "Malakel are you stupid? Of course, his dad knows Elder Michael. He's the only seer in templar history!" Tamael criticized Malakel in front of me. "Oh right, we have always been with him chilling that I forgot. My bad." Malakel replied to Tamael. "Don't quarrel guys. My dad rarely talks about his job that even I am surprised." I spoke to them. "So, what do you usually talk about at home then?" Tamael asked me, curious. "Everything about my mom and stories mostly about history. Dad said his job is confidential." I replied to Tamael to clear the confusion. "Oh, I see. Makes sense." Tamael understood my point.
"After this, the festivities will start. I'm very excited. The stalls here seems grand. Fitting for an event only held every millennium." Gala told us. "Think of it like this. In all our lives, after this event, we can only experience it two more times! This is first, the second time is when we're almost middle aged and third time is when we're already old." Tamael told us bluntly. "Thanks for the reality check Tamael, by the Makers! Urggh…" Gala irritatedly replied. "Don't be like that Gala. What he told us is the truth. Better know the value of the experience rather than regret it later for not enjoying." Cara explained to her sister Tamael's point. "We have been here all this time and all I've seen are special food stalls." I replied doubting the event. "Are you stupid, of course they will put all the grand things later." Gala told me like I was an idiot. "Yes, everything will be assembled later, at least from what I heard." Cara supported Gala's comment. "I think they prepared it like this to avoid disrespecting the Makers." Malakel joined our conversation. "I think so too." Leona also joined our chat. "Besides, with this crowd. You can't set up something good at the back. The people occupied too much space." Leona further added to us.
You might be confused, what do we really call ourselves. Is it really pargon or people? Pargon is used when we refer only to templars, but people are interchangeably used because all the inhabitants of Bastion created by the Makers, Underhaven included, are called people in general. That is, all of us are one community of this world.
"Look the Makers are preparing to depart!" Tamael shouted at us.
"My Templars, it is with deep sadness that we will now return to our heavens. Fate may guide you with safety and health so that we may meet again in the future." Lord L announced to us. "Be strong in battles, do not lose heart. For if you fear the enemies, all the good in Bastion will tremble as well. May you all remember this after we depart." Lord D added.
"Templaaaaaaaaaaars!!! Salute!!" Elder Michael shouted at us with his voice that resounded all around the vast temple square.
We all put our fist at our chest with the palm facing downward, stood straight, bowed slightly and after, looked at the Makers and shouted "Glory to the Makers. Glory to the Realm. Kruhay! Kruhay! Kruhay!"
