Chapter 205: The Dryad Princess Elenore II

I take the potion out of my inventory and bring it up to the sleeping Elenore. She is calmly breathing as I tilt her head up very slightly. I uncap the potion and bring the bottle to her mouth. I slightly open her mouth for her, and I pour the potion into her mouth. I make sure every last drop makes its way in. I lay her back down as the empty potion bottle shatters. I watch as some color returns to her face, and she stirs a little. "Miss Elenore? Can you hear me?" As I ask that question, her head turns in my direction, and her eyes slightly flutter open. I look into the dryad princess's eyes, and I notice they are a deep green. She reaches her hand out in support, and I take it. She tries to get up, and I help her sit up.

She holds her head and looks at the ground with hazy-looking eyes. "Where am I? What happened..." She begins to speak, and I feel really bad for her as I listen. She has been stuck in this place for a very long time. Probably not even aware she was cursed. "Where are my father and little sister?" I hold her up as I let her think and ask questions. She might be too weak to even stand on her own. I sling her arm over my shoulders and help her stand. I think taking her outside is going to be the way to do this. Some fresh air after a few thousand years can really help clear the head. I go slow as I walk her to the door, making sure I don't rush her and push her harder than she is ready for. We make it to the chamber's door, and we exit.

The exit to the cathedral is next, and I can see a tired look on her face. She is really having a hard time. We exit the cathedral and make our way to the courtyard. I bring her to an old ruined stone bench. I watch her eyes look around in horror. This massive place used to be her and her people's home. Seeing it in this state would make anyone shaken up. "My name is Zern, and the girl over there is Sally. We are here to help you and your people." She looks at me and has confusion on her face. She puts her hands on her head and leans her head down. She stays like that for a few seconds. As I watch her, I look at Sally and tilt my head for her to come over and comfort Elenore. Sally comes over and takes my spot. She rubs Elenore's back in support.

I stand up and notice that the magical energy is constantly climbing higher and higher around here. Something is going to happen. I look back towards Elenore and notice that most of the energy is converging on her. "I take it you don't remember what happened to you. Your people suffered greatly at the hands of Bellvia." She raises her head fast as I say those words. "So you remember them at least. You should know that you have been sleeping the past few thousand years. Your people are trapped in a place they can't get out of. However, I expect that to change very soon." She tries to stand up, and Sally helps her. She starts walking to the old fountain with water still coming through it. She sits on the edge and looks into the water.

She takes a hand full and drinks some of it. She must be quite parched. "I had hoped that Bellvia proposing the marriage would end our conflicts. It turns out it was just a ploy... I can feel my people trapped in a place beyond here... I can almost reach them, but I don't have the power to." Sally looks at me as Elenore says that. I can definitely share my power with her. I walk up to her and place my hand on her shoulder. I close my eyes and channel my energy through her. She takes a deep gasp, and divinity is being given to her. "You have so much power... All of it's at a level I have never felt. I'm going to need as much as you can give and more." I nod my head and pour more of my power into her. I can feel my billions in mana lower fast, and she doesn't look ready yet.

Sally decides to help and places her hand on her other shoulder, and channels the little mana she can. After a few more minutes of this and my mana pool almost at zero, she stands up and takes a deep breath. "I'm going to try and open a gateway between here and where my people are. Once it's open, they'll come through. There will be millions returning, and I'll need all the help I can get keeps the gateway open long enough for them to come through." I nod my head and notice my mana drain has slowed down, and I sit around 900,000,000. She puts her hands together and begins to chant a magic I have never heard before. As she finishes, multiple portals open up, and countless dryads come out of them. The drain on my mana starts up again, and it's not as fast as before.

We do this for the next 15 minutes, and the number of dryads coming through has decreased. She takes makes a painful gasp and stops channeling as no more dryads come out. I catch her as she falls in my arms. I carry her as more and more dryads begin to stand up and get their bearings. "Take me to my father. I need to speak with him..." I don't know what her father looks like. I look around as more and more dryads stand. As I look, I get a notification. It's about the legendary quest. As I carry Elenore through the crowds of dryads, many see that I'm carrying their beloved princess. Many follow behind us and whisper to one another. I can hear some of them. They are mostly about what happened to them and their kingdom. I open my quest to read it.

[Tier 3 quest][Must complete tier 2 quest first]

I decide not to open them right now. I need to focus on what is going on right now. I continue to walk through the dryad people until an area in front of me is also parting. I stop and wait. A man in incredible armor and extravagant robes walks out. "Elenore!" He runs up to me and takes his daughter gently out of my arms. "Oh god, what's happened to you!" She is looking quite sickly now, and Elenore just looks up at her father and smiles. She looks to be on death's door. I can save her. I toggle my title on, and many back away in shock. The king looks at the title in surprise. I hold out my hand and heal Elenore. As I do, a world announcement goes off.
