Ineffable Conquest

Savlin orders

'You revealed your face,' said Daara.

'It was needed,' said the pleasant masculine voice.

'Who are you?' said Daara.

'You will know,' said the pleasant masculine voice. 'Further.....'

'The lunch was great,' said Xavier.

'Thank you!' said Simone blushingly.

'What else would you like to tell us?' said Beckett.

'I will tell you the next step of your journey,' said Savlin. 'The powers you possess are incomplete. They can be enhanced. You could reach the epitome of your strengths.'

'What do you want to tell us?' said Dwayne.

'Beckett can hear footsteps. But when his sense will reach its epitome he can recognise a person based on his footsteps and also his range will become twice of the current range.'

'Really?' said Beckett.

'Dwayne can smell any fragrance. Once his sense will reach its epitome he can recognise a person based on his body odour.'

'I could still do that if the person has applied perfume or scent,' said Dwayne. 'What? Just telling.'

'Anthony has great microscopic and nocturnal vision along with crystal clear eyesight upto five hundred metres. Once his sense will reach its epitome he will have an eyesight equivalent to an eagle during the day and owl during the night.'

'I see,' said Anthony.

'Xavier has a great sense of touch. Once his sense will reach its epitome he could know just by his touch each and every minute detail of that living or non-living being which he has touched.'

'So you mean that if I touch a human body I can tell his exact condition. Right from blood pressure to his white blood cells count.'

'May the supreme lord bless you,' said Savlin.

'What about me?' said Xander.

'Xander has a great sense of taste and can sense even a minute change in oxygen of environment. Using this information he predicts the number of Humans, Yoddhas and animals nearby. Once his sense will reach its epitome then he could sense change in any of the gases present in the environment. Thus he could even sense number of Mandhas and Forgs. Also his range will increase ten folds.'

'What about my sense of taste?' said Xander.

'It has reached its epitome,' said Savlin. 'You could sense any taste and even know the slightest mistakes in the condiments added. You can also sense if their is poison in your food.'

'That's great,' said Xander.

'How will we achieve this?' said Xavier.

'Practice,' said Anthony. 'We have to keep on practicing and cross our limits.'

'Yes and No,' said Savlin.

'What do you mean?' said Dwayne.

'Maybe practice could improve your skills to some extent but there is an external factor which you brothers will need to acquire for reaching the epitome of your skills.'

'What is that external factor?' said Beckett.

'Listen to me carefully,' said Savlin. 'Till now I have given you information and asked you questions but now I will order you brothers to do a task as without performing this task you brothers will never reach the epitome of your senses. This task will be the most important part of your journey. This task will influence your whole lives. This task will make your path to achieve your goal much simpler. I, Lord Savlin, orders you to woo a girl.'

'What???' said Beckett.

'Have you gone mad,' said Dwayne.

'Is he gone crazy,' said Xander.

'Like really!!!' said, laughing Anthony.

'Simone!!!' said Xavier.

'Father!!' said Simone. 'What did you utter?'

'I have ordered the brothers to woo a girl,' said Savlin.

'Why?' said Xavier. 'State the reason for it.'

'Your powers and senses are interlinked. You brothers are totally different from each other but highly dependent on each other. If by chance one gets injured and his power decreases then the other brothers will weaken too and vice versa is also true.'

'I get it!!' said Xavier. 'Does anyone remember the last night when we had dinner with father and mother Godavari?'

'Yes I do,' said Dwayne. 'You had mixed antidote or something in our dinner.'

'Yes!!!' said Xavier. 'I had mentioned about bitter-sour taste of our dinner. But I have a poor sense of taste. How could I specify taste of our dinner exactly?'

'How did you then do it?' said Xander.

'You helped me to do it,' said Xavier. 'You felt the taste exactly and somehow even I felt the taste.'

'For me that dinner was bitter,' said Dwayne.

'That night dinner was sour,' said Anthony.

'Xavier you mean somehow you got connected to Xander,' said Beckett.

'Yes,' said Xavier.

'This will happen,' said Savlin. 'Together you five will be invincible if you could connect with each other permanently.'

'How can we do it permanently?' said Dwayne.

'It can take years or months or even days,' said Savlin. 'I cannot predict the duration for your interconnection. But for achieving this interconnection you will need to woo a girl.'

'Why should we woo a girl?' said Beckett.

'The girl will help you to channel your powers. She will help you to amplify your powers. She will act as a bridge for a connection amongst the five of you. She will be the reason that you five will be connected to one another permanently. Remember that the girl must also possess the powers which you hold. She may not be a master in them but must know atleast a bit of your powers.'

'You mean she should also hold powers like we do,' said Anthony. 'Lets say If I have an crystal clear eyesight for a range of five hundred metres than she should have an eyesight of range greater than a normal human being. Let us say a crystal clear vision of range hundred metres.'

'Yes,' said Savlin. 'She must possess atleast a small bit of your powers and senses.'

'Who is the girl we need to woo?' said Xavier.

'You have find out that girl,' said Savlin. 'But yes I could give you some important pieces of information of that girl. She must be crown princess or queen of any kingdom. She must be older than Xavier and younger than Anthony.'

'Wait....' said Anthony. 'Age difference between Xavier and myself is only five months.'

'The search will be easy,' said Xavier.

'What do we need to do with that girl?' said Xander.

'Don't tell us to kill her,' said Dwayne.

'Why would he say to kill her?' said Anthony.

'She can die in the process,' said Dwayne. 'Either while channeling, amplifying or stabilising our powers.'

'No,' said Savlin. 'You don't have to kill her. You have to marry her.'

'What??????' said Dwayne. 'Are you gone mad? I promised Aditi last night that I won't marry again. Even she promised the same. I can't cheat her now. Let brother Beckett marry that girl.'

'Its okay,' said Beckett. 'I will marry that girl.'

'Wait...' said Xavier. 'I think he means to say that each one us must marry her. Isn't it, Lord Savlin.'

'You mean that the girl will have to be common wife of all our brothers,' said Xander. 'That's interesting. I feel pity for that woman. How will she handle five strong muscular and fit men in the bed.'

'XANDER!!!' said Beckett. 'Mind your words.'

'Sorry brother Beckett,' said Xander.

'She has to voluntarily agree to marry each one of you,' said Savlin. 'You cannot force her to marry. She has to propose each one of you for marriage.'

'I take my words back,' said Xavier.

'Don't worry brother Xavier,' said Xander. 'We will find out a way.'

'No!!!!' said Dwayne. 'I don't believe you. You are trickster. Is this mentioned in your ancient text? No!!! No!!! Show me the proof.'

'Yes,' said Xavier. 'We will follow your orders if you could show us the proof,' said Xavier.

'Here,' said Savlin. 'The ancient text of Odin's prophecy.'

'It is written in an unknown language,' said Xavier. 'How can we trust you, Lord Savlin?'

'Let me check,' said Beckett. 'I know this language. This is ancient Nordic language. Father had taught me this language.'

After an hour.

'Whatever Lord Savlin has stated is true,' said Beckett. 'Odin says that if the five great brothers have to unleash their epitome then they will have to keep a common wife. The characteristics for the common wife are as follows. This characteristics are the same what Lord Savlin has told us. Even Odin has mentioned about the volunteer rule that the lady has to voluntarily marry each of the brother. Though he says that she can be tricked into a situation such that she herself decides to voluntarily marry each of the brother. Another rule specifies that each brother must copulate her before the marriage.

Also he mentions a deadline. The brothers must marry this special girl with the characteristics mentioned on the previous page and following the rule mentioned above this paragraph before the middle brother (by age) turns twenty-one years old.'

'This means we have exactly two months,' said Anthony.

'I won't do it!!!' said, crying Dwayne. 'I promised......I promised.....I promised her....'

'You have to sacrifice,' said Lord Savlin. 'One sacrifice by Dwayne will ensure the safety of crores of living beings.'

'I will try....' said, sobbing Dwayne.

'You cannot only try,' said Savlin. 'It may happen that you have to take help from your wife for wooing this girl.'

'How can I take help from her?' said, sobbing Dwayne.

'Ummm....' said Beckett. 'Their is a note given by Odin. He says that the family of the brothers must not know about this special lady until they have married her as the family  could act as obstacle in the path of either finding the special lady or marrying her.'

'So now brother Dwayne cannot even tell Aditi about this special lady,' said Xavier.

'How will I do it?' said, sobbing Dwayne. 'I cannot do this. Aditi, I cannot cheat you.'

'Wait....' said Beckett. 'Odin mentions another note that once this special lady has become the common wife of the great five brothers following the rules mentioned on the previous page; the great five learned brothers can reveal the reason of their marriage to their family members and the special lady herself.'

'Once this marriage is over then I will tell the truth to Aditi,' said Dwayne hurriedly. 'I....I know....know that she will understand my situation.'

'Anything else,' said Xavier. 'Brother Beckett!!! Brother Beckett!!!'

'Yes!!!' said Beckett. 'Odin mentions that the brothers will have to spend quality time with the special lady. They must ensure that she should spend time with each one of them equally and hence preferably she must spend time with the brothers together. This will help to increase connection amongst the brothers and special lady.'

'And,' said Xavier.

'The book ends,' said Beckett.

'This is the only volume of Odin's prophecy with me,' said Savlin.

'How many volumes are in existence?' said Xavier.

'Even this one is a burnt,' said Beckett.

'I had heard from my grandmother that there were three volumes,' said Savlin. 'She had told me that the first volume is with the Forgs. Second volume is with Rishi Vijay and the third volume was with the Yoddhas but was burnt in their Feud wars.'

'Quite interesting,' said Xavier.

'Dwayne!' said Beckett. 'Are you fine?'

'I am to give a sacrifice,' said Dwayne rubbing his eyes.

'So we have two months to find and woo the special lady,' said Xavier.

'To be specific,' said Xander. 'First we have to find this special lady. Then each one of us must convince this lady to voluntarily propose us for a marriage. Before the marriage each one of us must copulate her. Also we must ensure that we follow all the rules and warnings given by Odin. And we have to ensure that nobody foils our plan. And for all of this we have only two holy months.'

(OH MY GOD!!!! That's impossible in two months. I feel bad for them. Poor Dwayne. I can feel you brother.)

'Exactly,' said, smiling Savlin.

'Now,' said Simone. 'You have sometime before you leave the city of Talo. Why don't we have some Forgs special green tea?'

'Brother Dwayne!!' said Anthony.

'Yes,' said Dwayne.

'Please don't think too much about it. I am sure Aditi will understand you.'

'I hope so....' said Dwayne.
