Earth: The passage

Arne and villagers spent their whole night thinking about where that fountain could be there was not a single place on the mountain that Arne hasn't visited but some legends say "You will witness the fountain only when you are ready to sell" and before this, they never had a reason to defy Gods but now it's different, Arne was ready to give everything he has just for the sake of his daughter.

"The path start where you are now but will lead you to pain that's beyond what you can fathom", said someone who was sitting in a dark corner.

The brittle voice in the air silenced everyone, everybody turned towards the voice that they never have listened to. It was Ogre, a man ostracised by his people because he can not speak and was of no use. Some say he was lost in the mountain with his six friends and was the only one to return and then never spoke again although everyone who ever witnessed him speaking was dead by now so they all believed that must be a rumour to generate sympathy for the man.

He was around 80 but has an incredible physique may be stronger than Arne himself.

Arne look towards him and uttered, "What do you mean ?".

Ogre: "You think death is the worst! Death is salvation, salvation from boundaries of this world but what you are planning is a prison, torcher and torment for eternity bounded in a void where you go insane because of your own thoughts", "You all will die and I will die with you too, maybe this time, maybe this time that sword will break this curse".

Arne replied, "I don't care what you believe Old man or what you think you are. The only thing I now know is I have only one option and I'm going to fucking get it ."

Ogre sneered, "Hell with your ONLY thing, you won't be able to take one step with this love of yours. Its better you sit down and wait for Zar to slit you and your daughter's throat."

Arne: "Zar!!".

Ogre replied, "Yes, Eldian general Zar is here and you know why he is here? He is here for the same thing and he will get it. You can't hear it but I can, the silence of people and that sword hissing like a snake. I have spent my life thinking I won't hear it again but he is here."

The fear electrocuted Arne just after hearing Zar is here, "The smile of Death", legends are told for that man, nobody knows where he came from and then again he felt something warm on his chest, Ymir was still sleeping and her breath was going through his chest and her small fingers were holding him tightly and he uttered, "I will I have to!" and looked towards Ogre.

Ogre: "The passage is here in Odin's temple but once it is opened you have to either enter it or someone will come from another side and you will never want them to be here, Eitr is pious to darkness and death so death always stands beside you and when you say you are bringing it here, Death will come too, In Flesh and Blood !".
