Zamorak nodded. "That's fine. We will get them soon. At the very least, their capabilities are more restricted now." Zamorak turned back toward the palace. "I will alert the people at once. As for you two, you must have had a tough fight. Hazeel, take care of them."
Zamorak walked away from the scene into the palace. Hazeel gave a wide grin. "You've got it," he replied, turning to the others. His eyes were glowing red, filled with a thirst for blood.
Neither of the riders left the palace alive.
-------------------------------------------------------
The sky rolled with thunder and lightning, the dark clouds blackening the already gray sky of Freneskae. The storm mountains of Tyssouga were an imposing landmark, but the power seen from a distance was nothing compared to the power Azzanadra and Sliske felt when they were actually there. They had left Tsugon's hut several days earlier, and now they walked along the bare trail on the doorstep of Azzanadra's former home. All that stood in their way was an endless, raging storm.
The lightning fell as often as if it were rain, scarring the ground with its fury. Azzanadra was hard at work keeping the area around them electrically neutral: any polarity would be deadly in the storm.
"How much further do you thing it is?" bellowed Sliske over the howling wind.
"I can feel the magic!" Azzanadra exclaimed, trembling. "We're not far now!"
Finally, they reached the high point of the trail as it passed around one of the mountains and went down into the valley. Azzanadra looked with glowing eyes at the small city that lay in the valley. It was quiet in the valley, the eye of the violent storm where life could exist in peace. "My home," Azzanadra gasped, a smile spread across his face.
"Let's go," Sliske replied. "They'll be happy to see you."
And they descended into the valley, ready to explore the hidden city of Tyssouga.

Hey there people. You surely don't remind me, but I read your story a year ago, when I was achieving my 99 **. I was so glad when I saw that the three stories are still alive. This story guided my long days of Eucalyptus chopping, and it will always be the best story I ever read about RuneScape. Really congratulations for your work Riekan and long live to your stories!

The duo hiked over the crest of the hill and lowered into the valley. As the path grew closer to the hidden city, they got a better view of what lay before them. The city was far smaller than Senntisten; it looked more like a village. The houses were arranged in a large rectangle that stretched as far as the peaceful eye of the storm would allow. In the very center was a tower that stood a dozen stories tall. On its apex was a metal rod that glowed with purple lightning. The energy flowed out along wires from the tower into the city around it.
"It's wondrous," Azzanadra remarked.
"That tower," Sliske added, "must be where the orbs are held."
Revitalized, they made the final mile into the city. All the buildings had light flowing from their windows, as though a hundred candles filled each room. But this was not the case; odd spheres of glass on the ceilings were the sources of the light.
"What a strange place," Sliske said, breaking the unearthly silence. "It appears so full of life, but I can't see anyone in the windows or in the streets."
With that statement, Azzanadra looked around. Sliske was right; there was no one around. "Where could they all be?"
"Hello?!" yelled Azzanadra, his call echoing fruitlessly through the empty city. "Is anyone here?! Anyone!"
Sliske clapped his hand on Azzanadra's shoulder. "If anyone's here," he said, "they'd be in that tower."
Azzanadra nodded, and he led the way through the abandoned city toward the huge structure. Azzanadra shivered as they approached. "The pure power," he noted. "I'm quaking in the sheer presence of it!"
They finally reached the base of the tower. As they looked up the sides, they saw that the purple lightning sparked compulsively from every level.
They walked through the double doors at the base into a large lobby, where fine Freneskaean art adorned the walls and furniture the floor.
Yet, it was still empty. "Hello?" called Azzanadra again.
