Chapter 8

Neshae took the first watch as Rayman and Alaesia fell asleep for the night.  The campfire still roared, casting a red-orange glow on the three travelers.  Thousands of stars twinkled in the dark purple sky around the two moons.  It was a beautiful night to go hunting.

“Neshae…” a voice said, coming from behind him.

Neshae turned around and saw a green mist hanging over the ground.  He drew his Fire Blade, wondering what it was.

“Come…” the voice said.  “I have something for you.”  The mist started to move away form the camp fire.

Neshae thought for a moment, wondering whether or not it was a trap.  In the end, he shrugged and followed the mist.

After a while of walking, the mist finally stopped and turned into a beautiful woman wearing a green dress.  She almost kind of reminded him of Figuya, but her dress was green instead of blue and her hair was dark green and straight instead of black and curly.  Not to mention she was alive and Figuya had been killed a while back.

“Neshae.” She said.  She raised her left hand as if holding a platter and a barrel of cheesey poofs appeared in thin air.

Neshae’s face lit up.  “I’m listening.”

The cheesey poof barrel floated to Neshae and landed on the ground before him.  He sat on the ground took off the purple lid, and started eating the crunchy balls of cheese.

“I thought you might like those.” The woman smiled.  Her voice seemed to echo from all around him.  “My name is Eris.  I am the goddess of chaos.”

Neshae saluted.  “Pleasure to make your acquaintance.  If you have a shrine nearby you can be sure to get an offering from me.”

Eris smiled.  “I have a special task for you.  I have chosen you because I know that like me, you love causing chaos.”

“You got that right.” Neshae said.

“When your friends find all the pieces of the Starbone and heal it, I want you to give it to me.” Eris told him.

“Why?” Neshae asked.

“Never mind that.” Eris said.  “I have plans for it.  You’ll get it back.  And in return I will give you the best shot of caffeine you have ever had.  The chaos that will unfold shall be grand.  You’ll have hundreds running away from your greatness in terror.”

“You gots me interested.” Neshae said.  “So where do I find you when they have the Starbone?”

“A little ways south of the temple the Center Bone lies in.  I’ll be waiting for you there.  And no need to tell anyone about this.  They might not let you take the Starbone.”

“Alrighty then.” Neshae said.  “Just make sure I get it back.  I kind of need it.”

“Oh you will.” Eris smiled.  She vanished in a swirl of mist.  “You will.”

Neshae stood up and picking up his cheesey poofs, he made his way back to the campfire.
