Archdemon Empress Luna

*******************************

"There is a grain of truth in this myth where the Tree of the Four Seasons is known to open portals." Lachesis' head floated smoothly on? the dark murky waters while Klotho and Antropos closely followed while crossing to the area where her Archdemon Familiars' were.

Luna and Apollyon stood behind Ravin and Sloth as their curious gazes rest at the oval table which appeared like a cursed black mirror.

They held their breath as they waited for more secrets to be revealed, "The creatures who passes in this? portal could either ascend to the nine circles of Heaven and descend to the Nine Circles of Hell. The same goes for the souls on the other side. They are allowed to get through this portal to enter the Material Realm."

Luna licked her lips as she and Apollyon stared at each other in doubt.

Did everyone in the Council Room hear it right—that there was another portal in the Autumn Court similar to the one in the Vampire Realm?

How many portals are scattered throughout the Material Realm connecting the Spirit Realm?

Maybe, this was the reason why the Material Realm was full of spirits, ghosts, and a variety of demons who had broken free from their conjurers after these diabolical creatures had tricked High Priestesses into a binding contract with them, overpowered them with Archdemon Magic, and then, ate their souls.

It was fortunate that the Tree of the Four Seasons was powerful enough to prevent the Archangels from Heaven and, most specially Archdemons in Hell, from gaining access to this Realm and wreak havoc so as not to repeat the Great War.

Nevertheless, all of them weren't excluded from chaos and destruction, now that the Archdemon of Lust was here in this Realm, hiding somewhere while clutching the necklace, Apollyon had given to her with his dirty hands.

Just imagining Luxen sitting on the throne of a Kingdom he had conquered with his demonic legion made her muscles twitch from her fiery anger.

"I doubt Archdemons and Archangels can use the same portal to enter the Material Realm because the Magical Tree forbade it." Klotho said lazily as if she was starting to feel bored. If Klotho could show them her an arm Luna could just imagine her checking her cuticles. "We had already mentioned this in front of Queen Morgan in the past—-"

"—and I will repeat it again." Antropos interrupted Klotho as she wore a grave expression. "If the Tree of the Four Seasons die, the entire Material Realm will collapse. All the creatures will die here and the effect will bleed to the Spirit Realm."

"We used to tend the roots of the Tree of the Four Seasons in the Underworld, watering it from Hades' Well of Fate to keep it strong." Klotho said.

Hades' Well of Fate?

Luna was reminded about that particular well in Ravin's Kingdom.

The Archangel who helped her cut her soul tie with Luxen instructed her to jump on it so that she would be able to return to the Vampire Realm.

At first, she had turned into a ghost when she arrived in the tall tower where and she found her husband standing by the window, waiting for her to come back.

It was such a heartbreaking sight, seeing her husband melancholic over her loss.

"—and here I thought your true form is reduced to three floating heads in the water." Princess Sapphire was sarcastic.

Lachesis let out a dry laugh. "This isn't our true form. My sisters and I share one eye back in the Underworld and we use that? to weave destinies of creatures in this Realm." Her smug smile faded as she explained further, "The tree is not only sacred but it is moral. It needed a divine caretaker who is protective and compassionate. Archangels were the only divine beings who could be trusted with it."

"The Material Realm is very much alive and present including all of us here as its inhabitants. That only meant that the Tree of the Four Seasons still existed along with the Archangel who took care of it." Queen Morgan supplied as she looked up to look at Luna and Apollyon. "Somewhere."

"Oh. It is alive but I can assure you that some parts of it have decayed or have been damaged? from old age." Lachesis affirmed grimly. "The Archangel should never neglect his or her duties in the garden. It is so easy for rogue demons who were conjured in this? Realm to pretend to be a malicious animal and dismantle it."

"The Highest God had transfered Garden of Four Seasons the Autumn Courts but it is now hidden from the people since the Great War had ended. We know it is here but we don't know where it is in our territory." Queen Morgan released a tensed sigh and dragged a finger on her lower lip, absently looked into the water. "We tried to find it but we couldn't. We stopped looking for it for the last century."

Apollyon's jaw clenched.

"Oh, really?" He narrowed his eyes at the Queen of the Fall Courts as he moved closer to her. "Then, swear it on your life that you are telling the truth."

"I swear it on my name, my immortality and the entirety of my Kingdom." Queen Morgan uttered right away with a shrug as if it was no big deal. "Hopefully, this map in my hand that Princess Ourania made with the Goddess Hecate's consent will help."

"How were you able to procure the produce of that Magical Tree in the past, Queen Morgan?"

"I had some help…" Averting her gaze, Queen Morgan replied cryptically as she launched upright, concluding the meeting with just one graceful move, "--but I doubt? your group can find it when you have Archdemons as your companions."

Luna's heart fell to her stomach in distress. "What do you mean, Queen Morgan, when the Goddess Hecate had specifically asked Ravin to locate it for us?"
