The Reaping

The book of Eibhil flows through her.

“We thought our enemies had been wiped from these lands. Asheron had hidden them from us for centuries only to expose them back to this world when Geraine over played his hand. Or was it The Book’s plan all this time? Are we all but pawns in the game?”

It is his fault. He thinks only of himself. He upset the balance of this world.

“In the end it matters not. As Asheron’s allies were too strong for us to pounce on the sand elementals. Why do they serve him when they are nothing but his puppets? Pain and trouble is all he has brought to these creatures. For nearly a thousand years he has had a hand in every terrible occurrence on this world. He is the reason all we have left is this miniscule island. This island where he rules and all others are cast aside. Yet when their little strings are pulled, they all dance for their white haired marionette.”

She has the power to solve your problems.

“Now someone has risen; someone who has the power to change this world. She could use her armies to wipe our ancient foes from this land for good in one fell swoop. Even Realadain may be powerless to stop Her, allowing the Falatacot to ascend to their rightful place of power in these lands.”

You must prove your worth. Impress her to join her ranks. Impress her to gain her support.

“It is time for us to pick our place in this battle. We must showcase our power to the frost mage. She will see our potential and bring us into the ranks of her powerful army. Then we will have our day. We will watch our foes crumble back down into the desert sand whence they came.”

There is no time to lose. Act now. Show them your power.

“We must get to work on this immediately. Prepare a forge with materials of the highest quality and workers whose skills are unmatched. Do not limit yourself to traditional means; now is not the time to be mindful of toes. I will acquire the necessary specimens for the transformation. The result will be unmatched weapons of war. We shall present these weapons to Her and with her power we can produce them by the thousands. The ultimate army, a force so great no one will dare stand in its way.”

Zrikux nodded to his matriarch. New life burned in the dead gray flesh of her face; life which he had not seen for eons. It brought back emotions he had forgotten exists. Not wanting to ruin this new hunger for power, he did not ask where it came from. Instead he simply replied, “It will be done.”

Success shall be rewarded greatly. There are no second chances.

“We will not get another chance at this brother. Do not fail me; for she will reward us with the ultimate power.”
