Freya walked elegantly on her way to the enchanting council room, the ceiling was coated with glow worms and they were emitting an indescribable light, a magical ambiance. As Freya roamed her sight, she witnessed the council room's peculiar design. The council room was located at the lower chamber of the Mt. Seraphyl beside the council room was the room that she used to hide Aicelyn.

In the middle of the council room were five powerful fairies of each clan, they are waiting for the queen's arrival in the golden spherical table. They all looked behind when they felt her presence, the faint magical energy she's releasing was enough to frighten them.

Along with Freya were her assistants, Tulips, and Lavander. The five fairies stood when Freya reached her seat, they all bowed and gave her the respect that she deserved. The Fairy Council was an organization made by both Glifford and Garet to bring equality and peace to Mount Seraphyl and whenever Freya is gone, the Fairy Council is the one leading the fairies.

The Fairy Council consists of five fairies from each clan; Baste of the Plant Fairies, fairies who work alongside Demeter and can grow plants to enormous proportions in nearly any environment, and can use them as weapons that can grab and attack with vines and roots, grow or retract thorns.

Next, Cally of the Musical Fairy, fairies who work for Apollo and the satyrs. Fairies who uses music to hypnotize and drift enemies to sleep.

The third one is Michael of the Light Fairy, who works alongside the wisps and gives magical energy to others with the use of their magical light from the moonshine but cannot cure physical wounds.

Clover of the Luck Fairy, they only serve Freya and they can give the probability of luckiness they have in the specific event.

Lastly, Neri of the Power Fairy, fairies that work with Ares and have superhuman strength that can equal a giant.

Freya smiled and gestured the fairies to take their seats. And before opening the conversation, she sparkled her pixie dust so that the fairies wouldn't repeat their sentences.

"One month from now, the final judgment will happen," Freya announced. The fairies looked at her intently, they are aware of the incoming fight between the Titans and the Olympians. "Or so they say. The incoming Winter Solstice will be an all-out battle and I need your help to come up with a strategy."

"Apollo already explained the details to me," Baste stated. Freya nodded to him, "At na tsismis ko na sa kanila."

Both Freya and Baste laughed, they gave each other a high-five while the others facepalmed, "Nice one, Baste. Daldal mong hinayupak ka, inunahan mo pa ako. Reyna ka, girl?"

Michael cleared his throat, "Clover, help us to gather troupes. Mas maganda kung kasama namin kayong mga Luck Fairy."

Clover nodded. Neri mightily raised his hand, "Pupuntahan ko si Panther upang tulungan siya sa pagtatayo ng proteksyon sa mga walls."

"Sasamahan kita. We can be a big help." Baste said.

"Same with the Musical Fairy. We can ease your exhaustion." Cally mumbled.

Freya smiled. She clasped her hands and remembered that she wasn't the only one gathering an alliance among the residents of the Divine Continent.

Light awed when he saw the façade of the Dim Forest. It does look like the artificial one, the one that was made by Garet but at the same time, it does not. The forest was filled with thick and gigantic trees, each tree was coated with charcoal shadows and its leaves were like umbrellas that were preventing the golden rays to pass through the forest.

Glowing Bee Hummingbirds began to dance around Light, specks of icy dust were falling as they flap their wings. Glifford shook his head while smiling when he saw Light's reaction. It was just like his first reaction when he first entered this enchanting forest.

"Let them guide us, Light." Glifford smiled. Light nodded, the birds began to chirp as if they are saying that they should follow them.

Light and Glifford began to follow the birds in the dark and narrow path, the leaves that were falling in the ground were making a crunch under their feet.

They both shut their eyes when the birds disappeared because of a majestic light.

"Open your eyes, demigods." A soft voice suddenly said.

Light carefully opened his and once again he awed. The middle of the forest was peculiar, it has an odd brilliance in the middle of a dark forest. Light step back a little when an angelic light appeared in his front, little lightning was flickering around it.

"Apara," Glifford mumbled.

In front of them was a wisp, a phosphorescent light. One of the eight elemental spirits that represent the element of light and their main job is to heal.

"I already know what you need," Apara stated. Light roamed his sight around, behind Apara was a herd of wisps. "The others will come with you."

"How about you?" Glifford asked.

"I must meet Demeter and Persephone first."

Light heard it loud and clear. He knows that Apara has something to do with Serena's absence and whatever the circumstances will happen, he must tell it to Sky especially that it is about his sister.

Sky was languidly looking at his comrade who's with him. A slowpoke. He rolled his eyes when Phoenix tripped from a stone.

"Bobo na nga lampa pa."

"Wow. Amazing—" Once again Phoenix tripped, a piece of rock floated because of the impact that made Phoenix's eyes widened. "Magnetic Field?"

"Wow. Pasado ka na sa quiz mamaya!" Sky joked.

"Hindi ka naman funny."

Phoenix's eyes were filled with amazement when he looked up. There was a floating island above them and besides the island was floating stones that were slowly dancing around the main island.

"Paano tayo aakyat d'yan?" Phoenix asked.

Sky smirked at him, he gathered a raft of water around him that made Phoenix gulped, "Sky, my friend, alam kong witty ka from time to time pero—"

Phoenix wasn't able to finish his sentence when his body suddenly soared the sky, the upsurge of water beneath him made fly. Sky was laughing while soaring the air while looking at his companion who was now screaming with all of his heart.

And as they plummet to the island, Sky successfully landed while Phoenix failed. "Tangina mo, Sky." Phoenix groaned.

He was soaking when because of Sky's blessing, he dried himself when they heard a tiny laugh. Phoenix looked on the top of his head when he felt a weight on his head, "Fucking Styx..." Phoenix mumbled.

"Yep, that is freaking djinn."

"Spoiler, ampota."

Phoenix took the djinn on his head and roamed his sight. A Djinn in front of him was a fox, a cute little red fox that can fly. A Djinn are elemental entities of pure psychic energy and they are considered as a pet; it has four elements—Fire, Water, Air, and Earth. And the little red fox holds the element of fire.

"Alam mo, little fox, bobo 'yan. Ang pangit mo pumili ng owner."

"No, Kaki. Bad lang 'yan si Sky. Ako ang pinakabrainy sa aming lahat." Phoenix mumbled.

Sky shook his head, they began to walk while Phoenix and the little djinn are playing. The whole place was surrounded by different kinds of dragons, some were flying and most of them are watching the two demigods.

Sky entered a dungeon. It was dim. A loud roar made Phoenix flinched, "Lit up the place," Sky commanded.

Phoenix was about to use his blessing when the little fox suddenly glows, he was on Phoenix shoulder yet he wasn't hurting him. He was covered with fire, sparkling and radiating the place. Phoenix smiled while looking at the tiny fox.

The dungeon glistened, its walls were made of crystals that reflect their reflections. Sky mightily walked, it seems that he wasn't bothered by the loud roar.

Phoenix gasped when he saw a dragon, whiter than snow, and illuminates like a moon. "Shiro," Sky called.

The enchanting dragon looked down, he gently lowers his head and he let Sky scratches head.

"Will you lend us your strength?"

Loud high heels noises echoed in the marble floor. Aicelyn heaved a sigh while languidly looking at her chaperone. She was wearing a midnight blue gown together with glass shoes.

Aizelle wearing a black ruffle cami fit and flare dress together while Sue was wearing an apricot-colored cold shoulder sheath dress.

A huge glass door welcomed them. Two guards were guarding it who simply bowed down when they saw the princess. "Welcome back, Princess Aicelyn Hailey Lean," Aicelyn wryly smiled upon hearing her full name.

She returned the bow and gave her regards to the guard before entering the Banquet Hall. The other princesses bowed to Aicelyn, after all, she's the most powerful among the princesses. She took a sit on her throne and her two companions at her back.

Once again the front door opened, it revealed a beautiful maiden with a wavy ash gray hair, she was oozing with authority and her amethyst eyes were just simply captivating.

The Queen clasped her hands, "Aicelyn's fake death caused an uproar to the twelve kingdoms. But now that she's standing before us only means that she's well." Queen Savannah announced. Her amethyst eyes were locked to Aicelyn who avoided her gaze, "And I think she has an important announcement to make."

Aicelyn stood, her crystal blue eyes were glimmering as she looks at the other princesses, "The Olympians needs our help. In order to protect the Acahae, Belster, Cerxes, and Demigods Academy we need to strengthen our forces, and your blessings and royal gifts will be a big help. So, lend us your strength."

The princess of the Sun Kingdom stood up and clapped her hands, "Wow, that's the longest announcement you've made, Princess Aicelyn." Philomena stated.

Aicelyn glared at her and the other princess just laughed. "Sue, that is your sister-in-law," Aizelle joked. Sue raised one of her eyebrows while looking at the princess with the blazing red hair.

"Not funny, Stanfield."

"My bad, Lean."

"So, disrespectful, Stanfield."

"Still boring, Lean."

The other princesses and the chaperones laughed at the two and even Queen Savannah cannot contain her amusement while watching them. "But you know what, Princess Aicelyn, even if you're boring... the princess will help you." Philomena smiled.

Aicelyn's eyes softened. Savannah tapped her hands on her table that echoed in the whole room, "The princesses will join the war. You have a month to prepare." She announced.

Philomena walked to Aicelyn's direction and looked at Sue, "My brother has a good taste," She mumbled that made Aizelle snickered. Philomena's eyes landed to Aizelle, she sadly smiled, "It's a shame that my brother can fall in love with anyone while you can't," she whispered to Aizelle.

Aizelle grimaced. "Anong pinaguusap niyo?" Sue asked.

Both of them shook their heads. And once again the Queen tapped her hands on the table that caught their attention, "Can I talk to Princess Aicelyn alone?" she asked.

The princesses and the chaperones bowed their heads and respectfully left the two. "Aicelyn,"

"You don't have to feel sorry. I know your reason, you don't have to explain—"

"I'm sorry. It's just that—"

Aicelyn hugged Savannah, "It was your dream and I am just your unexpected child,"

Loud uproar can be heard as the artificial Dim Forest was filled with a lot of demigods, they are training for the upcoming solstice. Garet and the others were watching them as if there was a movie screening with the use of Alexis's blessing.

"Oh, Poseidon Section has some moves, huh?" Garet mumbled.

"Dude, my bet is on the Hades Section." Jackson laughed.

"Sa Zeus Section ako." Panther said while sipping on his drink.

Alexis frowned while watching them, she crossed her arms, "Childish," she jeered.

"I'm not childish," Garet argued.

"Yes, you are."

"I am not, Lancaster."

"Yes, you are, Lockser."

"This show is way better than watching the demigods in the Dim Forest." Jackson said as he put sunglasses. Panther on his side gave him a popcorn which they devoured.

"Ang kulit mo," Garet irritably said.

"Then why did you insist on putting your surname to my son instead of mine?" Alexis argued that made Garet shut up. He awkwardly smiled and suddenly pulled Alexis near him, he caresses her hair and softly kissed her forehead, "Because I never stop fighting for my dream."

"Still... Isip bata ka pa rin,"

"Ang kulit talaga ng mga babae,"

"Gumanti ka kay Aizen. Pikon ka pa rin talaga,"

Aizen's heart was pounding rapidly, the strong presence before him was draining him. He was cursing Garet inside his head, killing and torturing his master. Twelve thrones were in front of him and another additional two thrones, which makes it fourteen. Fourteen gods were in his front.

Aizen bowed. A sudden struck of lightning made him flinched.

Zeus was holding his lightning bolt while amusedly looking at the young man.

"I, Aizen Marco Buenatori, the blessed son of Psyche, seek for the gods help for the incoming Winter Solstice,"
