Emery walked through the glowing cave towards the sword. With each step, he could feel his heart pound wildly. The center of the cave was brighter than the already rather bright walls, it felt like looking at a small star.
He stood just a few steps away from the legendary sword, the divine sword Excalibur.
According to the story passed down by the order, the sword has been stuck inside the glowing void-colored stone for more than 1000 years. Give or take, that was around 20 generations ago.
The legend states the one who could pull out the sword would become the king of kings and would lead the whole nation into glory. Emery himself had no desire to be one, what's the point of being a king of an island with the Nephilim faction dictate the whole planet.
But he would be lying if he said he wouldn't like to be the chosen one among all the other thousand legendary knights from the past 1000 years.
