[Lord Anu]

''This world... is a big maze... of sadness and darkness. Why this is happening to us? All of those darkness, sorrow, demons, evil lords and after all of this, the greatest evil of all... Julian. We fought so many times, and for what? To save the peoples, to save good creatures, to save our world... that we once new. When you're saving so many things and going through all that darkness, you start to think that you're some kind of a hero. But I must agree... the way of heroes is hard. There is no escaping from fact that our old world is slowly going down. This fogs, rains and black sky is choking me... they are rising above everything good I can protect, I must protect. I can hear dark whispers in my head... or... maybe I can't hear anything else. I miss my friends... Anubis, Drahcir, Sonidow, Tiny, Sharky, Kira, Alec, Harold, Long, Simoneon. Where are all of them? I can still hear Anubis's death scream. His death still lights in my eyes, and disappearance of Drahcir and Sonidow. What am I doing here? How can I stop such a great evil? What if more of my friends gone like Anubis, Drahcir, Sonidow and Noir? What will be with our light world and all creatures in him? Is there any real hope for us? All of those dark questions and voices are obsessing me... Trying to take my reason from me. I miss my old friends so much... I miss everything that is good beyond this new dark world. I don't know what will be in the future, but I know that there are friends with me still: Philus, Mailliw, Daymio. I don't know where Manji is, maybe he gone to his old strange world. And here we are... in the middle of darkness, near that castle Firend. The Julian together with demons and evil lords will be ready for great invasion. I will do everything to stop them, I will do everything to protect my friends and creatures from my world.'' Cen was talking to himself in his minds while Philus, Mailliw and Daymio were sleeping. Suddenly Philus woke up and came near Cen who were siting in front of the big fire.
''You're awake? You look like zombie.'' Philus said and sit near Cen.
''I was thinking...'' Cen said.
''I see. So, you're going to spend all night here? Sitting in front of fire and thinking about horrible future?'' Philus asked, but Cen didn't responded.
''Huuh... I'm sorry because of our friends. I'm sorry because of you. You shouldn't think that much about darkness. Or if you really wanna think about it my friend, you must be careful. It can obsess you.''
''I'm fine Philus.''
''No! You're not! You just think you are!'' Phil started to scream.
''That's how Anubis's always though! He always thought about problems, even on small ones! And he never get tired of thinking about darkness! That's why he died! He died because he didn't fear the death!'' Cen was screaming.
Then there was a long pause and you could hear only the fire and easy wind.
''I'm sorry because Anubis too. He wasn't... He wasn't bad after all.'' Philus said sadly.
''It's ok Philus. I will go to sleep now. Did everyone agreed that we must go back in the woods to small army?''
''Yes, everyone agreed. Now go and get some sleep Cen, you will need it.'' Philus said and Cen gone to sleep.
Philus was looking into the fire. Then he looked at the black sky full of thunders.
