THE ROD OF COMMAND

THE REVISED AND THE SHADOW CAVE

THE REVISED AND THE SHADOW CAVE

The evil messengers of Vigora were watching, and as soon as they saw Delmar entering the shadow cave. The leader sent a signal to the evil Vigora and he saw the signal, but encouraged them to enter through as well as he prepared to come with the Red Dragon's Blood. 

So they all prepared to enter the shadow cave, they all moved forward to enter but the shadow cave rejected them, and the leader who was the right hand side of the evil Vigora, their master, told them to stop for a moment and make a way for him.  

So he himself moved to the front side and tried to enter through, but still the shadow cave rejected him as well, several times. 

Delmar was still going, in the shadow cave there was a place like heaven because of the sky and the moon, the stars showing at the cave. It was so hot, he looked around the place and opened up his mouth wide, “wow this place is beautiful,” and he kept looking around then he saw the Rod Of Command hanging on the space under the cave.

He steps front and something lifts him up and he grabs the Rod Of Command with his right hand. After taking full control of it, everything comes back to normal, the disaster stops, and people are coming out of their hidden places. 

Delmar was going out of the shadow cave to head back to the city, but the Rod Of Command was shaking at his hand giving him the sign of dangers outside the cave.

The evil messengers of Vigora including Vigora himself were all outside the shadow cave as it never gave bad or evil ones access to go in. Because it has a lot of secrets to protect from evil people.

They saw how it is widely open and from outside the cave.  The evil Vigora and his Messengers are looking through inside but they can not get through.

When Delmar was coming out, he reached the  exit and he saw the evil Vigora outside as they were looking at each other. The evil Vigora saw the Rod Of Command at Delmar's hand.

He grew up in anger and wanted to force himself in but he was thrown back disgracefully. And he said, “you think you have won Delmar, but I will make you pay for taking the Rod Of Command, I will make you suffer”. 

Delmar replied to him, “the Rod Of Command belongs to the world, it belongs to us and we are the rightful owner of it”. 

Then he shouted, “No… You will beg me for mercy but I will never show you one until you give me the Rod Of Command”.

So Delmar left him as he continued talking with hanger, he went back to find another exit in the cave.

The shadow cave has a lot of secrets and  no one was able to enter through to see the secret part of it. Still looking for a way out, he heard a sound of footsteps matching the ground like that of a soldier. He stopped for a moment, and tried to check out what the weird sounds were. 

After checking, and he did not find anything he moved forward slowly as he did not know where he was going. When he got to some point. He saw a grotto, a small cave in the shadow cave. Then he tried to check what the grotto was all about since it stands different, he went through and he saw another world in it. 

He does not believe his eyes how possible it could be, the first thing he saw was a small baby who looks like a skeleton because he lacks human skin and his skin looks like that of an animal with two horns on his head.

“What is that?”  he asked himself.

Then he traced the weird creature to a place in the grotto. He saw the place surrounded by lights, lights with sticks, it was their city and they were all dancing and celebrating. 

Delmar was a fearless man but at times he did give way to fear because of his human kind and innocent heart. And another thing, in the grotto he moved to the midst of the weird creatures who were dancing and celebrating with the Rod Of Command at his hand and asked, “What are you?”.

 He threw the question to them because he did not know what to call them, or maybe to classify them to human creatures or under animal creatures. One of them , John, the real father of Delmar, came out and said, “Brent, do you not recognize me as your father? I am your father, you have grown up to be a very handsome young man, I am so proud of you”.   

But Delmar did not believe what the weird creature was saying and shouted, “Stop all your acts, I am not a fool to believe what a weird creature like you in this cave will say to me, just one question I asked and I need just one answer too, so who are you?”. 

Another one came out again, and this one looks like Helena, but the difference was the two horns, the lack of human skin, and she said, “we are the revised, the revised of your hidden secrets”.

“The revised?” Delmar asked.

“Yes,” the revised Helena answered.

“What do you mean by the revised?” Delmar asked again.

Because he never understood them and he was confused but not persuaded by them. 

“This is the cave in the shadow cave and being nursed by the shadow cave itself so this place is the shadow cave and once you enter, all the secrets that you need to know that are hidden will all be reviewed to you,” the revised Helena answered. 

“I do not have any hidden secret to know,” He replied. 

She smiled and said, “my son you have a lot to know, please follow me” .

Delmar followed her, they walked to the side of the grotto cave inside the shadow cave, downside of it and there was flowing water from it to the outside of the cave, and they stopped.

She said, “this is where all your hidden secrets will be reviewed to you, this is the secret water”.

“The secret water?” Delmar asked. 

“Yes the secret water belonged to the shadow cave and its existence started from here,” she answered.
