One I cannot hide.”\u009d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>Give us time to get far from here.”\u009d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “Then, open this wand box. Is that clear?”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>It is Kronos wand and it holds his will.”\u009d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>This will all not be over until—–“<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Anika heard Anathea’s voice in her head.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ‘<\/i><\/b>Thank you. No greater gift, though I am dead.’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ‘<\/i><\/b>Kronos will finally get what he deserves.’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ‘<\/i><\/b>Hurry now, I need say no more words.’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Anika and Sirle rushed out of The Keep.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n They zapped to the edge of the woods to seek.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Seek what was about to occur.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Suddenly, a tremendous explosion did occur.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n A mushroom cloud rose high into the air.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Material was raining down everywhere.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Anika and Sirle were knocked off their feet.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Later they went to look. Total defeat.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n A mighty crater in the ground was left to see.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0No more Keep, no grounds, not even a tree.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n When the explosion did occur,<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n In hell, Kronos spirit knew for sure.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Totally insane, his will now spent.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n His spirit was beat. All hope relent.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>Anathea?,” Anika asked, with little hope.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ‘<\/i><\/b>I am here, at least my will, in your wand.’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ‘<\/i><\/b>Anathea sent me here just before her death.’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ‘<\/i><\/b>Her spirit stayed with her remains and wept.’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ‘<\/i><\/b>Unfinished business, still had to be met.’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ‘<\/i><\/b>This was accomplished in the explosion.’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ‘<\/i><\/b>Her spirit went to heaven, She was chosen.’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ‘<\/i><\/b>I am fine in this wand. I live in Ambrosia.’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ‘<\/i><\/b>I come when you call,—- as I told ya.’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Sirle heard it all through telecommunication.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>What about ‘The Shadow’?,” with hesitation.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>That is another matter entirely,” Anika said.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>The Lumicates said bury it in the sand instead”\u009d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n They started flying off at top speed.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n After several hours flight, Anika felt the need.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n She landed and picked a spot.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Sand all around and it was hot.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>This is where I will bury the lamp.”\u009d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Saudi Arabia Is the place today. Their camp.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>The Lumicates \u00a0said to bury it here.”\u009d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>Many eons from now, another will find it, I fear.”\u009d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>They said his name would be Aladdin.”\u009d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “But, that’s another story. Be glad then.”\u009d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n “<\/i><\/b>Let’s zap back to Vantera once it’s buried”\u009d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n They did this and their feelings varied.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Sirle felt ‘The Shadow’ should have been destroyed.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Anika felt The Lumicates wanted it deployed<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n in this manner. They had their reasons.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n It will become apparent in due season.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n There was a tremendous party going on.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Wizards were doing tricks with their wands.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n They all knew this was the end of their evil foes.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n They were happy. Let the goodness flow.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
