"The Elemental Sphere of Earth. It has finally been spotted after all this time."
The Emperor's words rattle in my mind. The Elemental Sphere of Earth? That's been missing for so many years. This is the last thing I expected to hear from the Emperor. Even all my friends are stunned. Our own Kingdom of Tarondar is known for our hold over the spheres, but we never managed to find where the Sphere of Earth had gone.
"That damn Grand Duke Pedgas. Everyone, please follow me."
My friends and I exchange glances as we follow the Emperor through the dark halls of the Imperial Palace. After a few minutes, I have an idea of where we are going. The staircase at this point is extremely familiar to me. We are heading toward the Emperor's private office.
