screams of the Bishop, they prepared a convenient scene to extort the young Rabaz with the
threat of subjecting his mother to the same degrading torment that had finished with the life
of Lupo of Tharsis.
Hence, they extended Lamia over the torture table and started to stretch her limbs,
producing frightening screams of pain. In that moment they made enter Rabaz, who came with
tied hands in his back and escorted by two Cistercian Golems, who remained frozen of terror at
listening the laments of Lamia and discovering her tied to the mortal table: and when seeing
him paralyzed of horror, a triumphal smile was drawn on the countenance of the Golem, who
counted by in advance with the confession. But what they didn't count with, nor then, was the
mystical madness of the Lords of Tharsis. O! the madness of the Lords of Tharsis , that had
turned unpredictable for hundreds of years of persecutions, and that was manifested as the
Absolute Courage of the Pure Blood, a Courage so high that resulted inconceivable any
weakness before the Enemy! Without being able to avoid it, the young Rabaz, impulsed by a
mystical madness, made two leaps and he situated beside his mother, who was looking him
with a shiny gaze; and then, with just one slash, he smashed her left jugular vein, causing her a
fast death by bleeding. Now the Golems were not laughing when they were dragging Lamia;
nevertheless someone laughed: before she died, Lamia reached to emit an ironic belly laugh,
whose echoes remained many seconds reverberating in the meanders of that gloomy prison.
And Rabaz, who had just killed her and had his face covered with blood, was smiling relieved
when proving that Lamia not existed anymore.
No; the Golems were not laughing: they were really pallid of hate. Was evident that the
Will of Rabaz could not be bowed down by any mean, but not for it they would not stop to
torture him unto death: they would make it even if it would be only to relieve the rancor that
they experimented against the Lords of Tharsis.
Bera and Birsha didn't achieve anything with such bloodshed and due to this they left to
the Cistercian and specific mission to be fulfilled in the next years by the Order of the Temple:
no matter the cost, even if that implicated to get engaged in a permanent struggle against the
Taifa of Seville, but had to be constructed a Castle in Aracena, a few kilometres from the Village
of Turdes. The exact place would by the one known since Antiquity as the «Cave of Odiel», today
called «Cave of the miracles», whose name meant, evidently, Cave of Odin or Wothan, but that
was also denominated «Cave of Daedalus» due to the deformation of «Cave D'odal»: naturally,
Daedalus, the Constructor of Labyrinths, was other of the Names of Navutan. The entrance of
the Cave of Odiel was located at the ground level, in the peak of a hill of Aracena. The plan
consisted in to edify a Templar Castle to occult the Cave of Odiel: the entrance, since then,
would be only accessible from inside of the Castle. Why they would need that? to reach to the
Secret Cave of the Lords of Tharsis; because, according to what Bera and Birsha believed, from
the Cave of Odiel would be possible to approximate to the Secret Cavern employing certain
techniques that they would put in practice at their return from Chang Shambhala.
