After they reached the underground citadel of Tevra, the split souls and their group explored the area and were welcomed by the people, who seemed oddly friendly. It seems that they were welcoming of visits.
However, it was all because Tevra had informed the people beforehand about two visitors, two pale vampire-like visitors. One of them having the ears and tail of a wolf and beautiful golden horns, and the other with long wine-colored hair… but above all, their presences would be strong, emanating life and death.
At first, they didn't understood, but when the two actually arrived at the scene, the people were shocked, and ended happily receiving them. The beautiful underground city was like straight out of a fantasy fairytale about dwarf and their immense underground cities such as Tolkien books.
It wasn't much time before the split souls were brought to the shrine. In there, they were quickly invited inside of Tevra's Divine Realm, she was strangely very welcoming of them, despite being known as a silent goddess that didn't interact much with the outside world.
Tevra's Divine Realm resembled an enormous cave filled with colorful crystals all around, in there, a gigantic being rested, the darkness was lightly illuminated by the crystal's colors, her large and sharp crimson-red eyes gleamed eerily within the darkness, and many other eyes also did around her, she didn't lived alone, but many of her children, dozens of Elder Dragons, lived with her, mostly sleeping, and saving their strength while maintain the world's elements.
Tevra's eyes looked over the split souls with interest, her voice was like that of a mature woman, they even held some seductiveness within them, yet they were also firm and stoic like stone.
"You two… The special ones. The chosen ones by Razdall, Lamus, and Vedon. I am aware that you came from the other Kritias already… If introductions are even needed, my name is Tevra, and I am the Goddess of Earth and the Depths. What brings you here, heroes from another time?" she asked.
"We have come here for the purpose of a gathering. We are planning to hold a meeting between all Dark Gods. It is important that you also assist this… Tevra. By the by, name's Veronica," said Veronica.
"The meeting is very important; we require your presence if possible. We'll talk about a counterattack against Bestellen, and to end this entire conflict once and for all. My name is Ervas." said Ervas.
Tevra squinted her sharp crimson-red eyes as they gleamed with eerie light. She found them rather bold, and they also looked to be in a hurry. But there was strength in them, a strength comparable to hers, if not even a bit higher. Tevra's physical power alone could flat entire continents and shake the entire world with her fury, yet these two entities held a bit more power than her… If she was able to flatten entire continents, they could destroy the entire world.
As a powerful and mighty Dragoness, the only ones she would listen to would be her siblings, as she recognized them as strong, but even then, only Razdall was the only one that could ever ask her for favors. However, with such powerful beings in front of her, she had to admit that she admired their power. The mighty was beautiful in her eyes.
"Your manners before the mother of all dragons seems rather flawed, you're bold as well, asking me for something as if forcing me to. I could easily deny your request as easy as I could flatten your bodies into the ground with the tip of my claws… And that is very unlikely. I recognize your power, but you should had asked me more nicely," sighed Tevra.
"A-Ah, sorry! We were just being casual because Roneas and the other gods such as Uphy liked us to talk like that…" sighed Veronica.
"Yeah, sorry… Could you please help us?" asked Ervas nicely.
"Ah… You meet my silly sister? I can see why she had stuck into you such a manner of speech… I suppose that is how she likes to do things. And- Eh? You meet the other light gods?" asked Tevra.
"In fact… they're all here with us!" said Veronica.
Suddenly, several presences entered the divine realm, these were the other Gods accompanying the split souls, Uphy, Phunana, Chaneyr, Kesheia and Roneas emerged inside as their original bodies, with the exception of Roneas who emerged in her astral projection.
"I cannot believe my eyes… Uphy, Phunana, Chaneyr, and Kesheia! You four… what are you doing here?! Have you come to fight me?" asked Tevra.
"F-Fight you?! Big sis, we would never!" said Uphy.
"Yeah, you're way too strong, that's impossible. Who would be crazy enough to fight you?" asked Phunana.
"You'll flatten us into pancakes before we could even move," said Chaneyr, sighing.
"Sister… Tevra, is that really you?" asked Kesheia.
"So you've come to… negotiate? And yes, it is me, Kesheia… You look as radiant and beautiful as always, my sister," said Tevra, as she revealed the rest of her enormous body, a gigantic black dragon whose scales were like enormous rocks, no, mountains.
Gargantuan wings rested at each side of her body, three pairs of legs rested over the ground, as enormous black claws the size of mountains grasped the ground beneath. Her face was just as gigantic, her eyes enormous and crimson red, several horns erecting across her big draconic head. However, a large wound resembling a gigantic scratch was within her chest, and her left front limb had a big wound that even showed the bone.
"Your body…!"
"Such a big wound… Sister, what happened to you?"
"This was made by the Demon God King. That fiend… He was the mightiest being I've fought, even against someone like me, he was able to deal so much damage. My soul was also greatly damaged. He had tried several times to shatter it. Alas, my soul would never shatter to the power of such a vile being. But after overpowering him to almost defeat to let you all seal him, I decided to go back here to rest. Although my power is weakened, my might is still here." Said Tevra.
"We can heal that," said Veronica.
"What?"
