The young man was getting ready to say something, but before he could the attendant came around the desk and said, "Fighting is not allowed here, stop at once unless you want to portal to Agartha without a care package."
All of us understood the importance of the care package and took a step back. The young man glared at the both of us and with a menacing tone said, "You better hope I never find you brats in Agartha."
Mike just laughed and said, "Sure thing crop top, we'll keep an eye out."
He growled back, "My name, is Benning Gunther and don't forget it."
"Uh huh, whatever," The young man stared at Mike for a moment then walked off.
As we turned back towards the attendant I said, "Sorry for the trouble sir we didn't intend to start anything."
He had an amicable smile on, "I know, that kid has always been difficult to handle. Speaking of which you two should be careful. He is the son of Brigadier General Gunther."
"WHAT!?" I couldn't help shouting out loud.
"Who's Brigadier General Gunther?" Mike turned to me and said.
"Remember that already powerful advance team you mentioned before? General Gunther is their leader."
"So what? Agartha is 10 times the size of earth. What are the chances we run into him?"
"Very little, I hope."
That didn't stop me from worrying though. I was concerned this might affect the timeline. We didn't run into Gunther's son in my past life and General Gunther is one of the true human powerhouses of Agartha.
I almost slapped myself.
What's wrong with me? I shouldn't allow something this small worry me. I know a lot of things that are going to happen and many secrets of Agartha. As long as I use that knowledge properly who says I won't end up even more powerful than General Gunther.
I reaffirmed my determination to change everything this time.
I turned to Mike and said, "Let's get our care packages and go. I'm ready for everything Agartha can throw at me"
Mike chuckled, "Now that's what I'm talking about pal. Let's do this!"
After getting our care packages we headed straight to the portal. In the middle of an open field at the center of the stadium was a huge circular metal apparatus. Inside the center of the circle was a dark liquid substance that seemed to ripple outwards from the center. As we got closer we could feel a barely noticeable pull towards it.
There were probably 3000 chairs set up around the portal and about 2500 already had people sitting in them. A man in a black coat asked us to take a seat as we got closer.
Not too long after sitting down a portly man in a black robe trimmed with red stripes swaggered onto a stage in front of the portal and said, "Welcome citizens, I am Captain Bartholomew and I am here to brief you before you portal to Agartha. I am sure you are all ready to adventure into this new world and embark on a journey like you have never imagined. However, before you go, there are a few things we need to make sure you understand."
"First, we are not alone on Agartha, besides the beasts that roam the new world there are at least four other sentient races. The most dangerous of them and the one that hates humanity the most are the Fey. They are a very domineering race who believe that their god placed them on Agartha to subjugate all other races under their rule. They consider humans abominations. They look very similar to the elves you have seen in fantasy fiction. They have pointy ears, fair skin, and silver hair. Their body is about the same as ours in terms of constitution but they are very agile and attack in both a swift and fierce manner. If you encounter a Fey don't try to run. Hide and hope they don't find you or attack before they get the chance to notice you."
The crowd visibly shivered at the thought of the Fey.
Captain Bartholomew paused briefly before starting again, "The G'eth are a race that while its shape is human seems to be made from many plants corded together with a set of emeralds for eyes. They have not shown a direct aggression towards humans, however, they seem to be whimsical in nature as we have not managed to develop many connections with them. Associate with the G'eth at your own discretion."
"The Shades are a mysterious race and not many have been seen, but we know they exist. They seem to be capable of conforming and moving within shadows and darkness. On the few occasions we have interacted with them we have noticed they tend to speak in riddles and love money. Be careful if you happen upon them."
"The last race and the ones that we have developed the best relationship with are the Una. They have a human-like shape and can be identified by their blue skin. They are capable of coming on land however, they prefer to stay in water. The Una are a gentle race who have been of great assistance to humans in Agartha. The only thing to be wary about the Una is that they focus greatly on purity. Therefore, under no circumstances can any of you enter into a relationship with any of the Una. Doing so is punishable by death not only under Una law but under our law as well."
I could hear a guy in front of me snicker, "Who would want to have sex with some alien freak race anyway."
The guy next to him said, "I don't know, it might be interesting."
A shiver ran down my spine when I saw the weird look in his eyes.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
