Algalord Chronicles
Part II
What is told between
these pages destined to memories was written by the wise old hand
of Aresuis of Elgard, witness before God of another
incredible epic deed. I will tell you about the brave warrior of
Loregard, the son of holy ice, and his search for the legendary
emerald sword, the powerful weapon of positive force, the decider
of 
destinies of
wars and ensurer of peace. The last hope for the salvation of the
enchanted lands…
As most of you already know, this fantastic weapon is hidden beyond the "ivory gates "located some where in the lands of chaos, and to open these magic portals the hero needs first to find the three magic "keys of wisdom…
The Three Keys of Wisdom
And time had come… At the first light of dawn we were already far from the green Elgard and soon the dusty Argon’s glade and the hills, where the old dwarf lived together with the secret of the keys, made their appearance. The challenge soon began… The challenge between the warrior and his deepest fears reflected in the magic "mirror of shadows". But in the end, thanks to his moral integrity, he was able to defeat the risk of madness, thus obtaining the desired prize: the first key of wisdom and with it all the clues to continue on this incredible quest.
IN fact, now, a second, more demanding challenge
awaited the warrior: the one with Tharos, the bloody
dragon keepers of the second key, hidden somewhere among the
marshes of Chaos. The fight was terrifying, but in the end the
power of the northern lands hero prevailed over the agility of
the enemy. Do, so sparing his life… In that moment the
incredible happened… And suddenly all was clear! Tharos was
under a spell and finally it was broken.
For a long time he was condemned to fight against valorous knights searching for the second key… Sometimes he killed them, a few times he had himself been killed by the strongest ones… But this time all was different. The warrior he had before him had spared his life and so Tharos understood he was the chosen one… The prophecy had spoken the truth, and Tharos was finally able to spread his wide wings to reach the furthest horizon. But before doing so, he gave the second key to the son of ice and told him to reach the mystical altar which held the secret of Ikaren and which was located on the border between the middles forest and the southern side of the lands of Chaos. There he could find the last key necessary to open the ivory gates…
The legend of Ikaren
The legend of Ikaren was known by all in the enchanted lands: it was a magic objet. That, inserted in a chink of the altar, would show the direction for reaching the holy gates… After crossing the " forgotten valleys " we finally reached the middle forests and then the desert of chaos… Soon, also the dusty altar made its appearance. But when we were there, we didn’t find the answers we were searching for immediately… And when all seemed lost, the skies helped us…
the two keys of wisdom fell. From the hand of the warrior and landed in a particular position… And he finally understood: one of the keys could be connected to the other and the resulting object was just the mystical Ikaren: my God, the secret of the ancients was finally revealed. The warrior immediately inserted the object into the chink in the altar and soon, with the help of morning light, the miracle happened…
Three stone dragons surrounded the altar, and when the sun shone on their eyes a ray of light shining from them reached the Ikaren on the altar creating an incredible display of light…
Hidden mirrors diverted the ray of sunlight at least five times, bringing it to rest on a spot between some of the many rocks surrounding us. We felt our gaol was really near but nobody could imagine what was soon to happen
Another part of the story was ready to be written…
And this time, we hope, not with the blood of another hero…
