Chapter 2: The Elixir

Pharsa's hands were drenched in blood. A very awful and horrendous sight which she herself could not imagine. Her fists were clenched while blood's dripping down; she was horrified and disgusted with herself, "I am no better!" said she.

Her whole body was shaking in fear coupled with anger, she took a step further towards the entrance into Cyclops' lair. There, she saw the starsoul magician giggling while dancing into a somewhat eerie play of music in his accordion. She approached Cyclops and said nothing---just standing there looking at the funky dance he was doing.

"Whoops!! I didn't see ya there mi lady! hahahaha!" said he.

"..."

"oh!" Cyclops exclaimed,

"It looks like you have done the deed! My oh my, and there I thought you couldn't be worst!" he added while bursting into laughter.

"I'm going to end you too if you don't shut that nasty mouth of yours!" shouted Pharsa.

"Oh...I think we're not on the same scroll mi lady, I, firstly cannot be killed for I am immortal as I was cursed by Estes, the leader of the Moon Elves to suffer eternal damnation by being alive for eons now; secondly and most important, you need me to make you that elixir ain't it?" he continued to scoff.

Pharsa threw the pair of eyes covered in blood in Cyclops' slab of rock. "Have it done immediately" she said while walking away.

Her mind then went blank and remembered everything she has done.

It was a starry and cold night when he saw Minotaur Gaelik in the woods sitting by the fire. He was roasting what it seems to be giant turnips on skewers and toasting pumpkin seeds on a pot, ready to be devoured by the gentle gargantuan.

"Never gets old, still stuck on that carte, I see" she said on a calm sweet voice.

"Ah! my lovely lady, come and join me for a feast my dear friend, it has been ages since we last gathered by the fire" he joyously insisted.

"I agree Gaelik. We haven't done much sitting and pondering by the fire. I even forgot how it felt like to live in peace. Ever since the day that demon witch destroyed my life, I vowed to exact revenge on her and her parasites! I have forgotten who I was and the person that I am" said she.

"My lady, you are so much more than that. Let go of ye hatred and darkness shall perish in your heart. Start anew, I shall be on your side on whatever" he replied.

"...and for that I am perpetually grateful. After I lost sight and during the war at the Land of Dawn, I was alone with only Verri on my side. I have no one and nothing, but you....you took me and helped me gain sight by being my eyes" said Pharsa

"That was nothing my lady, you yourself was not so bad after all, you were a great aid during the war, you helped us all to easily defeat the dark forces" he said.

They both chuckled and look up into the sky, Pharsa let out a heavy sigh and said,

"But it was never enough for me. This is not the life that I want nor need, I need my real eyes. I need my own sight!" she then struck Minotaur with her devastating whim of magical energy that impaled him and left him unable to fight back---it was so strong that it rendered him powerless, as if all his might and prowess has been sucked up. He cannot move even an inch.

It was obvious, Pharsa casted an enchanted spell upon him enough to paralyze his Minoan frame.

"Whyyyyyy? How could you?!" said Minotaur in a trembling voice "I beg you, I am the only one left of my kind, I need to exist to keep the Minoan heritage alive and not just a legend, spare me my lady, please!" he exclaimed.

"Oh no, I won't kill you Minotaur, I just need something from you to finally complete my vengeance! We are friends right?" she then bursted out an evil laugh and continued, "Let me take these!!!" she then started placing her hands on his eyes, and began the gruesome plucking of his eyes out.

"ARRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHH!" in a loud beastly cry of pain.

"Snap out of it!" Cyclops said while pulling the lower hem of Pharsa's cape. "The deed has to be done. There is no other way but to get a pair of eyes from a betrayed Minotaur so that its celestial powers be reversed and be easily taken out. You could die if you did not betray him upfront you know that very well, for his eyes are gifts from the divine" he said. "The method requires it, betrayal is the key, you could not have it in any other way".

"Make me the elixir" was all Pharsa had to say.
