PRELUDE
Demons, the citizens of the hellish underworld, have always wanted to live in the sunlight, to be free to feed on, possess, and enslave mankind, yet were often attacked and even killed by their celestial realm dwelling kinfolk, Dragons.
Dragons being hunted by humanity for their magical blood, flesh and fangs, have been locked in a battle against demons and the risk of execution at the hands of humans.
Mankind is thrusted into the middle of war between the greater species. Defending themselves against the hordes of attacking demons while seeking to weaponize the dead bodies of dragons.
Goneucho, a soldier in the Southern Province, seeking glory, valor, and immortality, has been in pursuit of eight legendary artifacts that have the power to change the world. These artifacts were forged in the heat of battle of eons of warfare between demonic and dragonite forces. Each has a unique ability and deathly curse that dooms the bearer to certain death the more they use the abilities of the artifact. Goneucho has been pursuing these artifacts as he climbed the ranks from infantry to general. During his campaign, after an intense battle against a mighty demon named Legion, Sotan, the king of all demons, appeared before Goneucho to bargain with him.
"You fight well human, for a mere mortal. Serve me as my commander in chief over my armies and I will grant you the power to destroy any man that stands in your way to the throne as emperor.", declared Sotan.
"What must I relinquish?", asked Goneucho.
"Your soul, of course.", replied Sotan.
Goneucho, focusing solely on the desire to obtain each artifact, agreed to serve Sotan as Commander in Chief. He planned to use the artifact's power to free himself once the time was right.
Suddenly, Sotan gives Goneucho a fatal blow, killing him instantly by impaling him through the heart and implanting his demonic blood into him, transforming his entire body into flesh that's harder than any material known to man.
When Goneucho awoke, he was in a barren field with a scar on his chest. He wandered the land for days until he came across a kingdom in Central Province. Because he wore the armor of the Southern Province, an enemy of the Central Province, he was met by a platoon of armed guards.
"Halt!" Demanded the guards as they surrounded him, raising their weapons and forming a circle. "As per the order of King Bowie, you must surrender and come with us to the palace court to stand trial!"
"What charges am I supposed to be going to trial for?" asked Goneucho.
"Trespassing...", explained the guards,"...and wearing our enemies arms! Even without your troops, we see you are a higher ranking member of your army. You must come with us or die where you stand!"
"Such weightless threats.", said Goneucho as he laughed and looked around at each guardsman. "I have died already....death is no worry of mine.", thought Goneucho to himself.
"Since you think of us as lightweight, DIE!!", said one of the guardsmen as he drew back his weapon. As he struck Goneucho with his halberd, it shattered like glass as the blade touched his skin. Then Goneucho, drawing back his bare hand, cleaved the guard in two.
Standing stunned, the other guards were confused. They had never seen a mere human cut a man wearing full armor in half without any blade or weaponry.
Goneucho, looking beyond towards the army approaching him, turns back to the guardsmen who surrounded him asking, "Well,.... do more men have to die before I can get a popular audience with your king?".
"No.", replied one of the guardsmen, "Please let me report back to the royal court about your arrival. Uh....what may I address you as?"
Goneucho paused for a second and thought to himself. Then proclaimed, " I am your Emperor, I am Goneucho."
Many moons and sunsets passed. Goneucho, now Emperor, uses his might and influence to unite the provinces. He killed any warlord who opposed him and captured their armies as his own. Since no man on Earth could defeat him, Goneucho chose to no longer kill off humanity. He ordered his men to hunt down Doshi, the king of dragons, in order to offer him a peace treaty. Once found, Goneucho's forces were able to imprison Doshi in an active volcano. There Goneucho asked Doshi to rid him of Sotan's hold on him. Doshi, being able to see into the future, told Goneucho to create a son, this son will destroy every seed of the demon king from the face of existence. Goneucho ordered his men to release Doshi from his volcanic entrapment and to allow him to gather a fleet of dragons. "Together, the humans and dragons will destroy the demons.", proclaimed Goneucho.
Three years have passed since Goneucho met with Doshi. By now, demonic rule has pushed most of mankind into hiding. Goneucho now had a one year old son named Naudou, to the virgin Queen Aurora, who was pregnant with his child. While on an exhibition one day, Goneucho was attacked by a horde of demons and they managed to kill his vanguards and overpowered him, capturing him in demonic chains heavier than the weight of the moon. These chains kept him from using the strength Sotan granted him and left him feeling drained and weakened. Suddenly the horde of demons flee and Saturnalia, the Queen of Demons appears before Goneucho.
"Hello, my Emperor.", said Saturnalia as she licked Goneucho's chest and neck.
"Release me you fiendish succubus!! Now!!!", shouted Goneucho.
"Shhhhhhh, you are going to alert my husband, I don't want him to know that I'm seeing you. Please keep it down, my emperor.", the demon queen said with a smile.
"Why do you want to see me, foul queen?! What are your plans?!", demanded Goneucho.
Saturnalia placed her finger over Goneucho's lips saying, "I thought I told you to shut the fuck up. I'm here for you. I have watched you for decades destroy mankind with your own hands and I know of the pact you made with the king of demons many sunsets ago. I am here to make my own pact with you, human."
"What!" Goneucho yelled.
Saturnalia slapped him across his face leaving a bloody wound, "I said be fucking quiet!!!"
Then twirling around smiling to show off her body to Goneucho, Saturnalia says, "Do you think I'm sexy? Huh? Well,...I want to bear your seeds. Together, our children will be royal heirs to the throne in both the Underworld and Earth realm. No armies or legions of dragons will be able to defeat them. They will kill Sotan and hail me as Queen of all the Earth."
"And what of me?", asked Goneucho.
"You? Well,....you will be my little secret. My sex slave is treated as my true king, you shall know only my bed chambers that are hidden away deep inside the Demonic realm. I have been alive for eons and I have never met a human being like you. So unfortunately for you, you will never see the Earth realm again."
"And if I refuse to stay," said Goneucho.
"You are already here!" laughed Saturnalia as she removed all her garments, the armor and chains from around Goneucho's body yet leaving several links wrapped tightly around his neck. Unknown to him, she had transported them to her chambers as they spoke due to him being bound by demonic chains creating a link to the Underworld. As the echoes of lamentations and the thunderous wails of the underworld whispered into his ear, Goneucho roused from his half-conscious state only to be greeted by biting cold. His neck, shackled by chains woven from the darkness itself, was heavier than the weight of despair clawing at his heart. Saturnalia, resplendent in her unholy beauty, was a sight that sent chills down his spine. Her sly smile, sinister and inviting, hung in the air. His blood pulsed with fury when she calmed him down, the intensity in his eyes, a tangible fire.
'Why must you use me, foul queen?! What are your truest plans?!' Goneucho bellowed. He was met with her chilling laughter as she receded into the darkness, leaving him with only the sounds of Saturnalia's tortuous laugh as a demonic lullaby. The days turned into nights that grew colder and the darkness darker. Would this torment be his only companion? Would this be the end of a hero? Goneucho gazes at the ceiling of his dark prison, the silence being broken only by his heavy breathing as he thinks of his companions... wondering if this is all part of some sick game or a ploy in Saturnalias' grand scheme.
"Now, drop to your knees and pleasure me, then I want you to stroke my pussy until I am certain that I'm pregnant with your child!" she screeched as she tugs the chain around his neck, forcing him to his knees.
As she stands over him, she grins evilly as she plunges his face into her crotch and grinds her vagina across his lips. Goneucho struggles to breathe and get free while Saturnalia moans loudly as she plants herself on Goneucho's head forcing him flat on his back. She pulls at the enchanted chain around his neck as she rides his face in a full mount, choking him in the process. "Hahahaha , yes, yes, yesssss!!!" hissed Saturnalia as she grinded and climaxed.
"Now that you got me all wet and excited, let's have some real fun.", Saturnalia growled as she stood naked over Goneucho dripping wet from her sweat and cum.
Goneucho began vomiting her cum out his mouth, then grabbed the chain that's around his neck and tried to break it. Using all his strength, it finally broke and Goneucho was free from its demonic grip. He slided on the cum soaked floor from beneath the demon queen as she stood there with a sinister smirk on her face. Just as Goneucho ran towards the door of the chamber ,he was suddenly sideswiped by Saturnalia, kicking him deep into a wall.
"Where are you going?! You are to give me a child today!!! Don't you think I'm attractive?!", She says as she poses for Goneucho, "Don't you think I'm sexy!?" She roared as she ran full speed slamming her butt against Goneucho's pelvis.
The walls crack as she twerk her bare ass on him, pinning him deeper into the wall. She grabbed him with her legs and flip slammed him onto his back once again. This time , she had her legs wrapped around him so tightly, blood came from his mouth from internal bleeding. She began biting into Goneucho's neck, sucking blood while injecting her venom, as he can only grind his teeth as Saturnalia rode his dick for what seemed like months. He has released too many times inside her by now to have any strength left to fight and realizing how strong she was compared to him, Goneucho tried to think of a way to free himself from her grasp. Bound in chains, Goneucho was at the mercy of a dangerous spectacle. Standing before him was Saturnalia, her fiery eyes aglow with formidable power. Her tongue danced against his skin with the coldness of a winter's night, shivers rippling through him like a primal yen for survival.
'My Emperor', the succubus queen, taunted, amusement lacing her satin tone. Defiance swelled within him, his anger boiling like a turbulent tempest. "Release me, you malevolent beast!', he thundered. Saturnalia responded with a smile that held the malice of centuries, silencing him with an insidious shush.
His heart pounded in his chest as Saturnalia began to speak in arcane tongues, her words revolving around a prophecy, the prophecy of his unborn child. Power, dominance, vengeance. The words crashed around him as his fear began to metastasize into a bone-chilling dread. This was a dance he never wished to be a part of - a dreadful waltz with the devil's bride, a dance that could dictate the very balance of mankind's survival.
Seeing the demonic chains laying on the floor near him, he grabbed a link and hurled it at the ceiling of the chamber with the last bit of strength he had, causing the room to collapse on top of them. Saturnalia was unaware of the room's collapse due to her pleasures.
Now exposed to other demons, they were drawn to Saturnalia's aura out of lust and sought to destroy Goneucho to take his place as her sex slave. They rushed to the ruins of her chamber. As she notices the rapidly approaching hordes of bloodthirsty and horny demons, Saturnalia lets out a loud roar "You dare interrupt me!!!". Finally raising up off Goneucho's penis releasing him, she launched herself at the horde, slaughtering them in a berserker's rage. "How dare you try to defoul your queen!!!" She roars as she ripped them apart.
Seeing his chance, Goneucho makes haste to find a way to Earth realm. As he searches blindly around the pitch black darkness of the Underworld for a portal, the Demon King Sotan returns from his failed hunt for Doshi.
"Hmmm, I smell human,... alive?" Thought Sotan to himself. "What's the meaning of this?", he asked one of his demon spawns. "O great highness, ..eh..the Queen...uh....has brought a man....alive! To your chambers! To mate!", replied the spawn cowardly.
"What!?!" Roared Sotan as he jumped into the air, landing with a monstrous crash at the ruins of his chamber. "Where is she!?!",He growls as he looks around and notices her standing in a bloody battlefield riddled with dead demons around her.
"He got away, well it doesn't matter now, I have been impregnated." Saturnalia says to herself.
"You, foul wench!?! Where are you hiding the human, I want to feed on him before I punish you!?!", snarled Sotan.
"You're too late, in more ways than one." whispered Saturnalia under her breath as she walked off from Sotan.
"Bitch!!!!", roared Sotan as he punched Saturnalia in the back of the head, sending her hurling through several pillars across the ruins of the chamber.
Saturnalia quickly rose to her feet and hissed intensely at Sotan, "You have struck me for the last time! I will see your demise!"
Sotan briskly walked towards her saying, "Then today you die."
Saturnalia lunged to strike him with a claw slash to his face but Sotan countered her attack with a hammer fist, embedding her into the ground at his feet. She pushed off the ground using her back to spring her upwards and kicked Sotan under the chin. Sotan took the blow to his chin, then caught her midair, chomping down on her leg, biting her with so much force, he broke it. He shook her in his mouth while slamming her on the ground repeatedly as she punched furiously and used her other leg to kick and claw him rapidly in the nose and eyes. Growing bored of fighting, Sotan lifted up his bloody head, and with Saturnalia's limp body still in his mouth, slammed it with so much force the ground split in two.
Saturnalia laid there , struggling to get to air. Sotan then grabs his former queen and rips off her right arm, beginning to eat it in front of her.
"You will not be a complete waste." Sotan says as he turns away and starts to devour her arm some more.
Saturnalia, as she bleeds out dying , gives birth to a son. She can barely move due to the damage she has taken, but is driven to protect her child from harm. With one leg broken in two and her hips dislocated, She began to rise to her feet, using her remaining left arm to shield the baby.
As Sotan finishes the right arm, he turns to rip off another piece of her and is surprised to see her on her feet once more. "Well, you still have a fight left? Delicious." said Sotan with a grin.
"You will die, this is certain, and by my creation will be your demise!!!", cried Saturnalia. Sotan noticed she was holding an infant child and suddenly got even more enraged. "Bitch!", Sotan roared as he leaped towards her. At the same time, Saturnalia flung the infant into the distance, ripping the cord out of her so far she nor Sotan saw where he landed. As Sotan stood towering over the fatally wounded Saturnalia, he asked as he looked in the direction where the child was thrown, "Who was the man, what was his name?"
"Goneucho." Saturnalia said with a smile on her face.And with that, Sotan crushed her beneath his feet with the cruelest intentions, stomping her lifeless corpus into pieces of smashed flesh. Then suddenly he stops, standing in a pool of Saturnalia's blood and entrails, because he notices their son, Torioni, watching him.
"Come to me, my child. I will teach you how to bathe in the blood of those who opposed you. You will not be equal in all the realms." He said to Torioni.
"Yes, my father." Torioni replied.
As Goneucho roamed the Underworld lost in darkness, chaos began to spread among the provinces as Sotan went on a warpath. Sotan was furious at the betrayal of Goneucho, believing he was a willing partner to Saturnalia in trying to raise a son who was half demon and strong enough to destroy him. He hated that he was now brideless and destroyed villages, towns, and kingdoms until his lust had set in. "Where is the queen of this land!?!", He roared loudly into the air so that every province could hear. "She alone can stop my rampage, I summon her now!!!" He roared even louder as he killed more soldiers and villagers. "Stop!" Cried out a voice.
Queen Aurora, who was then eight months pregnant, spoke up and said, "I am the Queen of this land, please leave our people and return unto your own."
"Nevermore!!!", roared Sotan abruptly.
"My land was destroyed by man! My bride, befouled by Goneucho! You will be my bride now, because of his betrayal of our pact! I gave him power to destroy mankind's future, he chose to lay with demons! You fight for such a man! You protect such a man!!!"
"I fight for humanity!!!" She says boldly as she steps up, looking upwards towards his face, standing toe to toe with the colossal demon.
"You are with child?" Sotan asked.
"Yes, I will bear a child in one lunar cycle." Arianna replied.
"Very well", said Sotan as he pushed Arianna down to the ground with a stomp of his foot.
"I will pleasure myself with you now, and in one lunar month return to impregnate you with my own sperm." He said before suddenly dropping his cock on the ground in front of her. She was shocked and afraid, trying to pick herself up quickly to flee, Sotan smacked her with only a little of his strength, yet it was enough to break both her legs and arms, leaving her helpless to fight back against this already overpowered, giant foe.
Due to his enormous size, he couldn't fit his dick inside her, so he rubbed his tip across her entire body until he built excitement and soon began masturbating violently on her , pinning her beneath his cock. As he was about to climax, he grabbed hold of her and positioned her vagina so that it aligned with his hole and flooded her entire body with his nut. As she lays limp in his hand, covered in his sperm, she weeps and shakes as it painfully enters her body through her vagina, ears, nose, mouth, and anus.
"Yes, soak in it, let it all in." Sotan snarled.
He then placed her gently on the ground as if she was a flower picked for a grave.
Leaving her helpless and in severe pain he walks off into the horizon of a rising sun warning her, "Please don't stray too far my love, I will return in one lunar cycle for you."
Goneucho, restless and weary, couldn't find a way out of the darkness of the Underworld. In his frustration he began to break everything he felt through the darkness. Suddenly, Goneucho saw a crack of light seemingly floating in the midst of darkness. He reaches into the crack, feeling air on his fingers, begins pulling himself through, ripping the crack open further. As he looks around , he sees he's back in Earth realm, yet things don't seem like the same time frame he had remembered. Also he was naked from his battle with Saturnalia. He notices that the crack was actually a fabric of light and darkness, a Cloak of Shadows.
OPENING
A great battle over the Earth realm threatens to destroy the planet. Chaos and death covered the world in war. Forces of good and evil seemed one in the same as the might of the Heavens puts to sword all of Hell's fury.
Armageddon pins mankind to the brink of death, calls of phantoms and spirits can be heard from hereafter, angels raise from God's acre, demons and dragons murder each other the control of humanity, yet mankind hurries to its own demise through sin, greed, and the lust of power... This is a tale of Anarchy.
Chapter 1
The Exile of the Kings
As the war between demons and dragons rages, mankind struggles to survive. Emperor Goneucho prepares to send Sotan, the demon king, and the king of dragons, Doshi, to the voids of Limbo.
A wounded soldier rushes to Goneucho's side, "Sir, the third advance has failed, all of our men are dying!!!". "Ready the Artifacts, it's time to begin the Rite of the Seal!", shouted Goneucho. "Yes Sir!!!, we will not fail!!!" shouted the remaining soldiers.
Eight keys to unlocking Limbo; Orion's Belt, Eye of Sheol, Key of Amos, Eden Scrolls, Core of the Mother Earth, Sands of Time, Flaming Sword of Heaven, and the final most powerful artifact, the Cloak of Shadows, it combines the realms of Heaven and Hell with Earth. These eight artifacts used together creates a portal to Limbo. In Limbo all time, space, and life cease to exist. All but one.
"This is the end, Sotan, no longer will I be your pawn!", exclaimed Goneucho. As he began to channel his power, he shouted "May you be doomed forever! I banished you to Limbo!!!".
Striking the ground beneath him he created an earthquake, he yelled, "Release the Seal!!!".
"Who the fuck do you think I am!!! I granted you your power!!! I made you who you are!!!! Now feel my wraith!!!!", roared Sotan as he opened one of his mouths to release a blast of intense heat, electricity, gravity, and acidic blood. Goneucho blocked it with his arms as it destroyed every weapon and every soldier around him. One of Doshi's three heads were severed in the blast as chunks of armor melted off Goneucho's body while he tried to block. In the midst of battle, the demon king got careless and allowed Goneucho to channel his power. Using the last of his strength, Goneucho pushes through the blast and breaks the seal with a final thunderous blow into the Earth. "It is time, farewell my sons.", said Goneucho to himself. With that blow, a blackhole opened from below, sucking the three kings inside. Goneucho knows what price he must pay. Sacrificing himself, Goneucho only seeks atonement for dealing with such evil as Sotan. He is forever doomed, cursed to be bound to the devil inside the voids of Limbo.
Chapter 2
Sons of the Doomed
Twenty years after the Exile of the three great kings, the power to reopen the seal was returned to the artifacts and were hidden. Protected by immoral beings called the Infinite. These artifacts were scattered across the world and even in the depths of the sea.
While peace began to show signs of existing, evil forces reigned terror and death for years after the king's exile. Goneucho's sons, Naudou and Moruki, ruled the Central Province. Sotan curses Moruki at birth with the Omen, a dark aura that forces him to destroy the world. Because of this, Moruki's hardest battles are with himself.
"You'll never gain control of it. The Omen rages. You're holding back." stated Mumerru. "I know you care about us, but we will be fine", he added.
"Yeah a little fire never hurt anyone!" laughed Naudou. "Ok, just don't die on me." shouted Moruki as he blasted a powerful release of demonic energy.
Dodging the blast, Mumerru said "You're not focused!".
"I don't even need a weapon for you, little brother!" said Naudou as he avoided the lighting speed. "Never said I wasn't going to use one.", he laughed out as he stabbed Moruki through the chest. "Gah, hahaha hahahahahaha!!!, Got cha!!!" laughed Moruki as he blasted another powerful stream of demonic energy at Naudou, blowing him away. As both are heirs to the Central Province throne, Naudou and Moruki's battles sometimes turn deadly. With the power of the Omen fueling his body Moruki never feared death, here embrace it. He can't feel pain or pleasure, only desire to kill all life forms.
"A little sword never hurts anyone, Weapon Master." growled Moruki as he broke the sword in his chest, leaving the tip still embedded in him and throwing the rest of the blade to the ground. "Damn, you broke my favorite sword. Ok!", shouted Naudou with excitement. "Time to stop this,...I have seen enough." Mumerru said to himself as he prepared a fireball in his hands.
"These boys are always at each other's neck, eager to fight since birth. Hehehe..... reminds me a lot of their father. I have seen a lot of growth. Naudou's magic is powerful. He can make weapons appear instantly just on a simple thought. And Moruki is gaining more control over the Omen. He is our Province's greatest weapon against Torioni's horde of demons and Doshi's legions of Dragoons.
Still neither one of them are ready to rule a kingdom, bring order to the people or liberate the land. They need order....", Mumerru thought to himself.
Chapter 3
The Devil's Rebellion
Many bandits raided the lands between province borders, the most notorious were known as the Band of Monsters, a group of disfigured and freakishly strong fighters. They pillage the outlands for riches, attacking small outposts to produce fear among the people. Torioni sought them out in order to use them to collect the artifacts, their hearts are wicked enough to be easily possessed yet Torioni wanted to see what their own evil intentions could do.
Meanwhile, The Kvetch, a group of freedom fighters and rebels in the Northern Province hatched a plan to get rid of its current ruler, Shintoega. The group's war chief, Tearno, and espionage agent Rin, created plans to steal copies to the blueprints of Shintoega's Labprison, while the rebel fighters, Icci the gunsmith and Tango the lancer, took on the risky mission of sneaking into Shintoega's Automation Factory and obtaining a dragon hatchling in order to unleash it upon Shintoega's gun army. When the final pieces are in place, the rebellion will commence its final phase of operations, which would put twenty years of tyranny to an end. Shintoega used ancient sorcery and forbidden alchemy to create his monstrosities. Automations were creatures of reanimated flesh and bone, completely made up from parts from warriors throughout history. As Shintoega's organ collection of fallen heroes grew, the hope of the liberty of the Northern Province dwindled.
The land was divided between the order of kingships and lawlessness of the natural world. While the wastelands were viewed as unmarked territories, the borderlands, savage lands, outlands and woodlands all belonged to the Beast kingdom. The Kingdoms of Man were separated into the Northern, Eastern, Western, and Central Provinces who all respectively gave passage to each beast, due to the treaty between man and animals. History of mankind's evolution from prime beings to human beings gave man the authority to rule earth.
The mother of all people, Eve, bestowed the wisdom of the All Father into the souls of all humanity, granting them unlimited potential and fortitude. The mother of all hybrid beasts, Lilith, the accursed succubus, gave birth to many half human/half beast children called nephilim, and granted multitudes and adaptations to kill the children of Eve, her sister.
Chapter 4
The Lost Son
In the wastelands, it never rained so the lands were barren and empty. Very few people survived this harsh environment, blood soaked sands and scattered outposts miles apart were the only signs of inhabitants. Still, people went there willingly, seeking wealth, or death. Damon, an orphan and demon hybrid, lost to his kinship, roams the lands in search of his heritage and family history. Born in the outlands he has always been alone, but was comfortable with this. His demonic blood gave him powers to create a smokeless fire and spawn flaming doppelgangers yet his life has been that of a hermit. Due to his beast-like appearance, as a child he was often chased and shunned by groups of villagers or traveling highwaymen, until one fateful day. After stealing a piglet, he was chased in a dense forest by an angry mob, and stumbled upon a cave, and decided to hide inside. The villagers fed up with his thievery, formed a posse of demon hunters to hunt Damon down and dismember him.
While there in the cave, Damon roamed through the darkness like it was daylight, amazing himself at how well he could navigate his surroundings. Suddenly, he heard sounds of marching feet headed towards him. Very quickly, Damon escaped to a deeper depth of the cave, hoping to avoid conflict. As the demon hunters searched the cave ways with torches and weapons, Damon hid among the stalagmites. As he tried to move position, the floor beneath him collapsed, creating a loud boom from rubbing rocks crashing to the echoes. As the dust settled, Damon found himself next to a skeleton holding a sword handle. Confused and battered, he gathered himself from his fall, at the same time, hearing the fast approaching hunters toward his position, he noticed he was cornered. So he reached out and grabbed the sword handle, hoping to use it to act as a decoy.
Chapter 5
The Beast King
Within the wilderness of this world, warrior clans of Beast hybrids plotted revenge on Mankind. The smartest and more powerful warriors among them became deities and warlords of the animal kingdoms. This divided them into classes based on their killer instincts or virtuous nature with many having hopes of being elected as a member of the Apex.
The Apex Clan ruled as the governing body of all humanoid societies. They were godlike in power yet diverse in species.
Bestowed with powers of immortality and shape shifting from Doshi, king of all dragons, and Lilith, Mother of all half-breeds, hybrids and humanoids, the Apex were the quintessential gatekeepers of the kingdom and warfare between man and beast.
Since the dawn of mankind there has been peace between the beings yet many humanoid animals contested man's intentions for nature and their treatment of natural law. The first to wage war against the humans were Centaurs and Satyrs, the indigenous inhabitants of the Central Province. Suffering defeat and near extinction, the hybrids lost control of their resources and fertile landscapes, severely crippling the beast kingdom's order and military might.
The war lasted for years, until a man by the name of Goneucho rose through the ranks and annihilated the four husbands of Lilith; Diablo, Leviathan, Cthulhu, and Humbaba. Doshi, the great elder dragon king, sought the equality of all beings of Earth and the defilement of the ruling kingdoms of mankind over beastkind. Using his divine powers, he channeled the elements of nature into his most developed and deserved servants, turning the rooster into a Phoenix, the wolf into a Fenrir, and the squid into a Kraken. This impressed Lilith, and she wanted to create offspring with Doshi because she was disappointed in her other children, the nephilim, so it became so. Together they begotten three immoral creatures, and one in which they adopted by his own will to become a God. The children were known as the New Kings of Ole, forefathers to the current beast king Minotaur DéVon.
Many beasts took on the mantle of king of their species while fighting for dominance of the best resources of the world. DéVon as king of the Bulls, Narasimba ruled as the Lion King, Sobeck ruled the alligators and crocodiles, Sun Wukong ruled the monkeys and Hanuman the great Apes, Anansi, king of the Spiders, Beelzebub, lord of the flies, Cthulhu as king of the Octopus and Baphomet as king of the Goats. Pazuzu and Ra battled for the title of king of Birds.
The Minotaurs were warlords of the beast kingdoms, powerful human and bull hybrids, stubborn and hot headed, they formed bands of crusaders across the Mainlands as they besieged the outskirts of civilization. DéVon, the elected leader of the Minotaurs, was very powerful and often attacked anyone at will as king of the Bulls. His vendetta against mankind steaming from their loss of the futile lands and slain forefathers vexed his legacy. He sought revolution and revenge so alongside his licentious human wife Lustrala, he began increasing his numbers, mobilizing an army against the human race.
Their forefathers were the Centaurs who were considered of the royal classes by their counterparts, the animal headed hybrids, because of their intellectual superiority and culture similar to man. Being great craftsmen, they were the architects of the Beast Kingdoms infrastructures, trades, laws, traditions, and treaties. They were driven to near extinction due to mankind's hatred for their lustful nature. They would enchant human women with their tales of the stars and talents of the physically minded then steal them off on their backs as they venture out of humanity's reach. Once in the wilderness, where only the bravest humans venture, they would fuck the human women with their elongated horse dicks, captivating them into a trace like state. Even though the Centaurs didn't like to share their concubines with each other, once a woman either rebelled or gave birth to a hybrid of animal headed intelligence and consciousness, the average centaur would lose interest in her and allow the choice to stay with him as a slave, to leave him for another centaur, or return to her human husband and children if she so chooses. Most women, once kidnapped by a centaur, are never seen again.
The Satyrs were the court concierge and vanguards of the Centaurian race. They were tasked with scouting new lands and maintaining the peace among animalkind by serving as caretakers to the forests of the borderlines. Being on the same lustful shit the Centaurs were on, they would try to court women into the forests for sexual interactions. However, unlike the Centaurs, Satyrs were often big breasted, ugly, goat headed and legged creatures often times shorter than the women they encountered. Because of this, their advances would be rejected and mocked. This would enrage the average satyr, thus they are known for their deadly brutality of women who were brave enough to say no. Few women have survived encountering a satyr.
The Primeapemen were divinely blessed by the ancestors of the animal kingdom to be the guardians and sages to the lesser humanoid hybrids. Regarded as the missing link to humanity and animality, their strength of muscle, skills in combat and wisdom of mind is unmatched among the entire animal kingdom. They were accepted as Beast of the Natural Order and serves as double agents in the regime against Lilith's rule of all beast
The Sphinxes are a race of human faced beasts who prey on mankind with its quick witted mind and charismatic fangs. Being unable to weaponize themselves, sphinxes were instead crafted by nature to adapt to their environment by rapidly evolving their bodies. Sphinx are often born of a lion body but many have bird, fish, bear ,or even serpent forms and would grow wings upon its maturity.
The Lionheads, the nomadic clans that roamed across the Mainlands, were a rogue feline race of humanoids who pledges no alliance to any kingdom. They often waged wars against weaker animals and humanoids, deeming themselves Alpha to all.
The Werebeast were considered cursed abominations by all humanoid kinds because of their association with man and demonic magic. The magic that allowed man to transform into were-beasts was considered the work of vampiric demons who wanted to rule over both man and beastkind. Because of this exile, they formed their own clans in the darkest corners of the human realm.
Chapter 6
The Fallen
In the wake of the Exile of the Kings, the elemental beast of the Earth was crippled and fatally wounded by mankind. In an effort to preserve its life, Fenrir planted itself into the landscape around it. Running roots into the ground deep enough to create a pressure chamber, it planted a seed of its own essence and vitality, sacrificing the last of its strength to grow into a new being. Several decades later, a stone baby emerged from the mantle of the earth, its existence unknown to itself.
One fateful day, a carriage of nobles that were heading to Northern Province, discovered this weird looking rock child and wrapped it in oversized clothes thinking it was an orphan who had somehow fallen asleep in the mud and it hardened in sun. However, once they discovered he was a golem, he was sold into slavery and taught growing up that life was only bondage so he wouldn't resist his masters. They gave him the name Geona.
Chapter 7
The Phoenix
The Eastern province was the battleground of all past wars fought for freedom. Its sand dunes were piles of burnt debris and corpses left behind after the seal was restored following the Exile of the Kings. The Phoenix Koran burned all who tried to exhibit the site for its artifact and stood guard, protesting all violence in the area as it may threaten the fortitude of the seal. Because of his betrayal to Doshi and Lilith, Koran would take refuge inside a human vessel to hide away his true form so as not to be permanently destroyed by them for his cowardice. He would only emerge to cleanse the battlefield or transfer to a new vessel. Because the spirit of the person was destroyed once the Koran entered their body, a cult of martyrs followed him and made up the bulk of the Eastern province population.
Ruro was the Province's greatest leader under the flame of the Phoenix elemental and next to inherit its strength. Training his entire life to be a vessel for the Phoenix, Ruro endured many tortures and combats in order to be proven worthy of the flame. His provinces was very poor and relied on him to provide all provisions as sole leadership was directly linked to the throne.
Whosoever the Phoenix chooses is to be its next vessel sits on the throne as king of Eastern Province.
Chapter 8
The Temple of the Lost Tribe
Momboola, the chief title given to the strongest male of the Oet tribesmen, was a legendary warrior among men for their abilities to shapeshift into any animal that they consumed the heart of. Priestesses served as consorts to the chief and as defenders of their tribal family members.
Young males who were born of the tribe would be thrown into the wilderness at the sight of his first tooth to fend for themselves while being closely examined by the ancestors and elder priestesses. If a young male were to emerge in a Oet village, he would be immediately challenged to a death battle by the male occupying that village, regardless of age. The winner of the hand to hand combats would then consume the heart of the fallen, this would empower the victor with the vitality of the individual thus becoming stronger and more capable of being leader to the tribe. The Oet males believe the more hearts they consume the stronger they shall become. They would wander the lands in search of beating hearts and purpose to kill. Whenever they are approached by a priestess, she's forced to survive an intense battle against his primal form and calm his soul in order to see himself as human and not lose his mind to primeval control.
Young women would have to go through a rite of passage and choose either to be a bringer of life or bringer of death. If she chooses to bring life, she will subsequently become a child bearing consort to the next Momboola. If she chooses death, she will be tasked with either protecting the other tribes and tribesmen from province rule or transfer possession of the tribes sole treasure and to protect the artifact from evil tyrants. The priestess who took upon this mantle would be killed by the artifact, sacrificing her life to protect their world.
Chapter 9
The Wanderer
Moruki's mind was never at peace. Always a feeling of the dreadful appearance of death. One that will never come due to his born curse of the demon king Sotan. His demonic energy supplies the Omen with enough energy to disrupt Moruki's soul, seeking to destroy him from the inside and corrupt his spirit into unlocking Limbo. Being of pure heart, this inner battle locks him into an intense struggle to find solace. Whoever comes to see the Omen raging, soon meets a dreadful demise as well. So he intentionally leaves his body through astral projection. As to not feel any pain or pleasure from the world around him, nothing that would trigger the Omen to take control. This battle has made him a mute loner to all who tried to hail him as their king of Central Province, a title that he had shared with his brother Naudou.
After killing the beast king Minotaur DéVon, Moruki left because his guilty heart grew too heavy to bear its weight and his kingdom on his back. Seeking to rid the world of all evils that share the Omen strength of aura, he ventured into the unknown regions of the earth. This, self exile, to him, was atonement from being the one destined to unlock Limbo and freeing Sotan. If this phenomenon was to occur, he was going to make sure that no other evil joined in the battle to aid the demon king.
Chapter 10
Champions vs Kings
Far off in the Western Province, the ruling government and social status were established in the predicates of violence. Every year, a new province leader would be determined by a tournament of violence better known as the Fief Scuffle. This deathly battle is won by the last remaining combatant surviving to be the final candidate alive at sunset. Blow after blow, for one endless round, two fighters fought until there was only one left on the ballot to be elected present ruler. Thus becoming the Province's greatest champion and sole ruling authority.
A nameless man enters the arena with a determined look on his face. As he looks towards the crowd around him, he cracks the slightest smile, and proceeds calmly to the center of the ring. His opponent, an influential military leader of Western Province by the name of Manpo, entered the arena opposite of him. Manpo's experience in combat was documented by royal scribes across the Mainlands from every province, which stood as a testimonial proof of his valor and cunning skills on the battlefield. He fought as a civilian in the battle against Sotan as a young boy; as an audacious soldier of Central Province in the Beast Wars; and currently on the front line of the Western Province border party. He was a known killer and brute among men for he never backed down from a fight. He started his own school of war to train his comrades in his fighting techniques.
Despite his many outstanding accolades, Manpo was having the most difficult time in combat than he has ever had in life. His nameless opponent countered every attack with one of his own. As the fight went on, the audience would shout Manpo's name, hoping that it'll boost his morale level. He was the crowd's favorite, the people's champ, the one they were all really rooting for. Yet, this meant nothing to the nameless fighter whose skills were unrelenting.
In a dispirited attempt to turn the tide of the fight, Manpo performed a somersault front flip kick that was parried and countered by the nameless fighter with the swiftest uppercut that sent vicious shockwaves through his body. The blow severely damaged Manpo's jawbone and internally separated his head from his shoulders, breaking both his neck and chin at the same time. This stunned the crowd into silence and awe. Manpo tried to evade the nameless fighter who now was suddenly on the most harrowing offensive attack landing a rib cracking roundhouse kick to the rib bones of Manpo pierced his lung and nearly his heart. Sensing victory, the nameless fighter grabbed Manpo by the throat, hitting Manpo square in his mouth. With a fractured nose, swollen eyes, broken rib, dislocated jaw, broken ribs, and countless gashes, Manpo feared he might die due to his injuries. He was at peace with this fact and felt this to be the death of a true warrior, something he had been seeking throughout his life. As he laid there in defeat, he could hear the crowd as he faded into a different plane of existence, unknown to those bound by mortality.
Chapter 11
Reign of Fire
Naudou was the king of the Central Province and primary guardian of the Seal of Limbo. Being born to the virgin Queen Aurora without a physical father, Naudou was adopted by Emperor Goneucho at the age of one and trained in the art of combat. As a boy, he discovered he was gifted with magical abilities to manifest and manipulate solid matter, able to change water into wine, oil, or acid, produce weapons and armors from thin air and his reaction speed was ten times that of normal people. He was profound in studies of common and sacred knowledge of humanity, yet still sought more understanding of the world around him.
He possessed the key of Amos, the one most important artifact in the rite of the Seal. Without it, the seal could not be broken. As its protector, he vows to never allow it to fall out of his own grasp and into evil's hands.
The key grants the possessor the ability to grab items from other realms and pull it into this world. Each time it's used, the door to that realm becomes easier to cross, allowing out worldly creatures to emerge from the voids. If the possessor isn't careful or capable of holding a strong footing, they can get pulled into the rift, never to be seen again.
Sword of heaven is the one weapon that is proven to destroy the devil, but no mortal has the strength to wield the blade long enough to defeat Sotan. Naudou searches for a way to save Moroki's soul, use the power of the sword to rid the world of the Omen and of Sotan, and to protect his kingdom from certain death.
Knowing that the blade kills its wielder, Naudou is willing to sacrifice himself to destroy the Demon King.
The core of the Earth was a jewel encrusted tablet, aligned with runes and hieroglyphic markings. Its rotating rings are in sync with the polarity of magnetic fields, movement of the tectonic plates and placements of each constellation. It grants the possessor a shield of earth's essence, strong enough to withstand a planetary explosion, made of the very aura of the planet. This is the only artifact that doesn't have a curse upon it due to its power and connection to all life. With this artifact, a person who lived a peaceful life could essentially live forever. If the possessor is killed by a surprise attack or before the shield is deployed, then it will become another's.
The Eye of Seoul is a cursed artifact that kills its possessor, subsequently turning them into a living spirit. Even though its abilities of soul manipulation and repossession are extremely powerful, it's the deadliest of all artifacts and can only be possessed by the undead martyrs of Seal for as soon as a human touches the Eye, they would be killed by the power of the artifact.
The Cloak of Shadows is an artifact that is a sash made of shadows and light. It allows its wearer to turn invisible and faze through solid matter. It slowly consumes the possessor until they completely fade out of existence. As long as the possessor doesn't wear the sash, it's curse is not upon them.
The Eden Scrolls are a collection of scrolls that change its writing to the chosen wielder's destiny, allowing them to see their own future. However, the longer they glaze upon the scrolls' bright illuminated words, the more they go blind to the world around them and eventually end up in total darkness.
Orion's Belt is the strongest of the artifacts, it allowed the possessor to bend the laws of gravity to their will. If not careful, the possessor could accidentally send himself levitating at interstellar orbital speeds, shift the earth axis or throw the world into faster or reverse rotations. It has a planetary range and could pull or push objects across continents or propel the entire Earth out of orbit. It can produce stars by condensing atoms, and create supernovas. The wielder of this artifact will have to be wise enough to know how much power they possess and how not to destroy the world with it.
Naudou was a man of few words. He only spoke to those who had somehow tied themselves to his life mission. For he had not been able to see himself as king until he rid mankind's realm of existence of all its current pending calamities and doomed prophecy. The Omen Prophecy foretold of Naudou and Moruki's life struggles mystified by the legendary strength of their father's bloodline and their immortalized soul ties to mysterious divine beings. They were godlike to all who have ever crossed their paths, true kings among mortal men. Being without father, born of the spirit, birthed by Queen Aurora, the messianic Naudou grow up into royalty and divine protection being blessed by the most high with strength, speed and magical blood, sweat, and tears, and with the ability to create objects out of thin air and dematerialize all weapons used against him, he was anointed to be king from birth. He began training in swordsmanship the moment he was able to form a tight grasp, developing full weapon mastery as he grew. Because of his inability to feel hatred, wisdom beyond his age, valor and protectiveness, he was appointed grand judge of the royal courts by his mother at the age of two. Goneucho was his adopted father and elected king because of his successful conquest of the Mainland and by the willful wedding of the virgin Queen Aurora. The Omen was the aura of the demon king Sotan and he used it to curse the unborn child of Goneucho. As the three kings After the birth of Moruki, Goneucho trained Naudou in assassination techniques.
Chapter 12
The Grand Scheme
Once upon a time, in a mystical land shrouded in secrets and legends, there lived a wise and enigmatic alchemist named Dakin. He had an insatiable thirst for knowledge and a burning desire to unlock the mysteries of the universe. Dakin spent his days and nights experimenting with potions, delving into ancient texts, and tirelessly searching for the key to immortality.
For many years, word had spread of Dakin's incredible wisdom and his tireless pursuit of eternal life. Adventurers and scholars from far and wide sought his guidance, hoping to learn from his vast knowledge. However, Dakin sensed that his true purpose lay beyond the boundaries of mortal existence.
Dakin was appointed grand alchemist and royal advisor by Emperor Goneucho because of his vast knowledge of demonic and dragonite magic and technology. He was the mind responsible for developing the rite of the seal that helped lock Sotan away. After The Exile of the Kings, Dakin was revered as next to be emperor because of the superior intelligence of all things and heart for the people. He established schools, towns, and trading posts all across the mainland.
Deep in the recesses of his laboratory, Dakin contemplated fate and the elusiveness of his quest. Legends spoke of a sacred artifact known as the Sands of Time, hidden in the heart of a treacherous desert. It was said that those who possessed the Sands of Time could unlock the secret to eternal life. Determined and resolute, Dakin decided to set forth on a perilous journey to seek out to return this legendary artifact to its rightful place for it was lost in the aftermath of the great war of the kings. He was personally appointed by Goneucho to be the sole protector of the Sands of Time after his sacrifice. This small hourglass that could control and create pockets dimension of time outside of the ordinary timespace continuum. Because of this artifact, its possessor would ignore aging, cover large distances between places in nanoseconds, accelerated regeneration, and instant teleportation. Losing this powerful artifact was his greatest shame in life and he felt like the greatest fool because of it.
So, with a staff in hand and a map in his possession, Dakin braved scorching sands and battled fierce sandstorms. Days turned into weeks, and weeks into months, as he pressed on, undeterred by the hardships that lay before him. His unwavering determination carried him through the most harrowing of situations.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, Dakin reached the heart of the desert, where a magnificent temple stood tall, guarded by mythical creatures. Overcoming one obstacle after another, he ventured deep into the sacred temple. As he made his way through winding corridors and ancient chambers, the air grew heavy with anticipation.
At last, Dakin found himself standing before a shimmering platform. Resting on it was a small glass vial filled with golden sand—the long sought-after Sands of Time. His heart raced with a mixture of awe and trepidation as he reached out and carefully picked it up. It pulsed with an otherworldly energy that Dakin could almost taste.
Filled with elation, Dakin hurriedly made his way back to his laboratory, his mind buzzing with thoughts of unlocking the secret to immortality. But little did he know that dark forces were conspiring against him.
Unbeknownst to Dakin, his most trusted pupil, a cunning young alchemist named Shintoega, had grown resentful of his mentor's accomplishments. Hidden in the shadows, Shintoega had been plotting to steal the Sands of Time. As Dakin returned to his laboratory, exhaustion mingling with joy, Shintoega's devious plan unfolded.
One day, during a class he was teaching, two of his top students started fighting, this extremely infuriated Dakin because fighting was strictly prohibited at his universities. So he ordered his two pupils to accompany him in the field to learn how to properly perform alchemy. While on their dangerous adventure, one of his students intentionally tried to kill his classmates,but instead struck Dakin.
With a swift and traitorous strike, Shintoega incapacitated Dakin, leaving him defenseless and at his mercy. A wicked smile crept across Shintoega's face as he took hold of Dakin's hands and forced them to crush the vial containing the Sands of Time. The golden sand spilled through his trembling fingers as a burst of blinding light filled the room.
In that moment, Dakin's heart shattered, and the weight of betrayal consumed him. But the Sands of Time held unimaginable power. As the light cleared, Dakin found himself suspended in a moment frozen in eternity. He had become immortal, but at an unbearable cost. Students screamed in horror as they desperately tried to undo the magic of the golden sand. But nothing could be done.
Shintoega, realizing his mistake, fell to his knees, begging for his mentor's forgiveness. But Dakin was forever trapped in a state of suspended animation, cursing the name of his treacherous pupil. Shintoega, burdened by guilt and remorse, fled into the mountains of Northern Province. He was able to collect most of the golden Sands of Time into a glass dagger that he keeps hidden. With this dagger, he controls the time and manipulates it as he wills.
Ashamed and losing the element of surprises, that once favored pupil ran into a nearby cave, hoping not to be discovered for his cowardice and malicious attack on such a beloved figure. As he would have it, he had the sands of time, so his shame was undone due to its power. Now he sits in Northern Province, regretting the decision of running away. Because if he hadn't run from Dakin's strongest disciple, he wouldn't have to worry about the rebellion against his rule.
And so, Dakin, the Mystical Alchemist, continues to wander the lost dimensions of his mind, frozen in time and immortalized as in living statue, searching for redemption and a way to undo the wickedness that had been cast upon him. Legends tell of a solitary figure, his face etched with pain, his hands forever stained with the remnants of the Sands of Time.
In the depths of night, whispers of Dakin's story can still be heard, a reminder that true immortality lies not in the sands or elixirs, but in the love, wisdom, and integrity one imparts on others.
Chapter 13
Heroes of Anarchy
The rebellion was almost over, because everyone of the rebel leaders were considered dead or captured by Shintoega. Rin, Icci, and Tango lost contact with Tearno, fearing the worst might have already happened.
Moroki was buried deep in a pit of fire after battling Torioni on the crossroads bordering Western Province. Naudou searches for his brother in hopes of preventing the prophecy from being fulfilled. If Moroki is to live, Naudou must find a way to rid him of the Omen before it fully awakens in him.
Damon fights with Naudou unaware of his kinship to him and Moroki. As a half breed, his lifespan is incredibly increased, allowing him to wield the Sword of Heaven longer than any normal mortal. With the proper guidance, he would be a great ally in the fight against evil's reign.
Genoa was lost in the chaos of war, yet found peace in the world of disorder. He was able to explore beyond the grips that bondage ever allowed him to. In this he was able to rediscover his own essence and origin from his glimpse of the Eden Scrolls. Ashe continues to learn and grow, he begins developing hatred for all that makes the earth suffer.
Shet body was scarred beyond recognition by Damon's attack and it altered his mind, body and spirit all at once. His skin was charred and crusted, his hands were stripped and boney, and his face was blackened, peeling and melted. His eyes were blinded by the years of gazing at the light of the Eden Scrolls shining its golden hue of knowledge from beyond the world and hereafter. All he sees is the future and past, forever blind to the present space around him, except for the spiritual specters of good and evil that he sees fighting over the right to control his soul when he dies constantly around him. This torment has given him the reputation of a sage, twisted in his dispositions yet seeking mercy for his agony. In lust of the knowledge of the forbidden scrolls once more, Shet uses his vast array of items to provide himself safety in the midst of anarchy.
Chapter 14
Crater of The Omen
Many people died during the battles against the beasts, mostly the warriors who defend their lands from enemies to humanity. With the death of each upcoming hero brought despair. Each tyrannical victory casted a shadow of fear amongst the provinces. Moruki wandered the land for the years to follow, hoping to find solace and peace in attempts to entrap the Omen inside him. Naudou pursued his brother while challenged by neighboring warlords; he maintained the throne as king of Central Province, seeking to end the prophecy of the evil aura that has destroyed his family once and for all.
Sotan's bloodline has vexed mankind for centuries, and the current devil , Torioni, destroyed humans at will. He tortured, possessed , devoured, raped, and enslaved anyone he desired, combing the world for decades, handpicking his victims based on their valor and will to live. He knew no equal and placed all beneath him.
"So, are you going to resist?" asked Torioni, as he hovered over the small village outside of Northern Province. His massive wings blocked out the sunlight and cast a great shadow upon the townspeople. In fear, the people ran for shelter, for a wary insightfulness of wisdom structures their minds, nothing they could do would ever hurt Torioni effectively enough to kill him.
In a burst of laughter he flipped his translucent wings and released a murder of venomous birds of prey. Each one was a twisted spawn embodying a different form, well suited to execute its prey in the worst way possible. They began ravaging the townspeople's homes, killing them as they made feeble attempts to fight back and run.
Very few people survived encounters with Torioni, the people that were lucky enough to survive and witness his strength, recall his fight with Luken.....
"The sun is setting over the expansive countryside, casting a golden hue on the horizon. In the distance, two figures can be made out against the fading light - a demon bird and a werewolf. They stand, facing each other with a deadly seriousness before lunging forward, ready to fight.
The werewolf moves first, covering great distance, lashing out with its claws and teeth. But the demon overwhelmed him easily, using its murder of crows to quickly maneuver around the beast . Now it is the demon's turn to strike, and it does so with a swift cut from its talons.
In a split second, It dives around the werewolf, decapitating him. After a few moments, flocks of birds moved in to feed on the carcass of the werewolf then take off into the night, leaving the demon bird victorious.``
Chapter 15
The Demonic Realm
Many demon warlords fought in the underworlds for domination of the realm and to be released from their hellish confined world. They would build armies to attack the barrier that blocked the gates to the human world, hoping to eventually break the magic seal that strengthens it. Time after time they would fail, but never detoured from their fiendish assaults for their freedoms.
Demons see humans as fruit, waiting to ripen,to be peeled. They would bring doom to entire villages with very few people strong enough to defeat them. Most humans that survived encountering demons become violent vampiric creatures as a result of wound infections caused by the demons. The title of demon king was oftentimes self proclaimed and each demon fought for fame of being seen as the true devil of hell to humanity. Contest of rage would be thrown in pursuit of the crown. With the victory, the possessor of the crown can cross into the human realm and reign as king.
Many demons contested the current king Sotan because he was trapped in limbo, yet he was not dead and thus still king of hell. The other warlords protested that he shouldn't be allowed to hold the crown's power and Torioni had no right to it for he had not earned it in hell as all the other demons had before him. They lay in wait, hoping to ambush Torioni upon his return to the demon realm. There was Sojobo, the king of the Yokai, Legion the king of Phantoms, Shuten Dōji, the king of the Oni, Dracula, the king of the Vampires, and Lamashtu, Queen of the Abominations. They all formed their own armies looking to become the new ruling Devil.
Chapter 16
The Humane realm
Mankind's destruction is of its own grasp around its neck. As it tightened it's hold on militarizing it population, it substantially invited genocide of the entire human race. Kingdoms rage wars on each other so much that outsiders of the realm were joining in. As the Demons and Dragons slaughtered each other, Kings, Lords, Shoguns, Warchiefs, Oracles, Pharaohs, Prophets and commoners all battled each other for the right to live in power. Each fighting for reign over the pangea that was their world.
From different cultures came different techniques of war and technology of weapons. Books of sorcerers and magicians created various types of beliefs and religions that warped province into fighting amongst themselves. The want of power fueling the plague of violence towards humanity.
Shintoega's plan to take control of the Mainlands as its new Emperor was underway as he besieged nearby villagers and threatened the peace among Provinces. He created homunculus of his own cellular makeup combined with reanimated corpses of fallen warriors throughout history into monstrosities he calls automations. Automations are creatures of vast strength, speed, and vitality who are capable of moving mountains ranges aside like bushes. They were the godlike might of Shintoega's army, forged with the blood of the greatest warriors in time. He kept six with the bloods of Beowulf, Gilgamesh, Hercules, Thor, Mali, and Dagda as vanguards and his personal bodyguard with the blood of all combined. With these seven unstoppable monsters, brimstone gun army, the alliance with Torioni, and the Sands of Time artifact, world domination was within his vision. His only threat of his supreme authority was the unknown potential of the Central Province's power. It served as a blockade of Shintoega's ambitions and thus was his sole purpose of gathering his military and creating his freaks of nature.
There was a foretold prophecy of a great evil to be unleashed upon the world bringing about its end. This evil was deemed the Omen of the fallen Devil. Three heroes will rise up to defeat this evil, and all three will sacrifice their lives to rid the planet of its inevitable demise. Three of a noble bloodline referred to as the mongrel, the martyr and the messiah. Each will be of one, and will stand for all in the wake of Armageddon. Ragnarok, the climax of destruction during these times, will be the ark of death for the first, following will begin the decimation of all life forms unable to evaluate the carnage. The only way to escape this doom was to break this prophecy.
Chapter 17
The Dragonite Realm
In a distant and magical land named the Dragonberg by the Celestials before time existed, there lived an evil dragon called Doshi. He had a heart as black as midnight and wings as dark as the storms. Doshi was out casted in the Dragon realm, shunned for his cannibalism and pedophilia, bringing chaos and fear to all its inhabitants.
One fateful day, Doshi decided that he no longer wanted to confine his rampage to the Dragon realm. He yearned for more power and control, and thus hatched a devious plan to escape into the Human realm. With an interdimensional artifact named the Seal of Light, he opened a portal, and his massive frame soared through, leaving behind a trail of destruction.
Arriving in the Human realm, Doshi's dark presence began to cast a deep shadow over the once peaceful land. The humans trembled in fear, unable to comprehend the danger that loomed above them. But Doshi had an even more wicked plan in mind. He would empower the animals of this realm with mythical and elemental powers, turning them into unstoppable forces and using them to take over mankind.
Word of Doshi's arrival quickly spread through the forest, reaching the ears of a wise old owl named Orion. Aware of the dreadful consequences that awaited if Doshi's plan succeeded, Orion set out to gather a team that could stand against the evil dragon.
Orion first sought the help of a courageous fox named Alistair. Alistair's cunning and quick thinking made him an invaluable partner for Orion. Together, they ventured deep into the forest, seeking out other animals who possessed the rare qualities needed to withstand Doshi's dark influence.
Along their journey, they encountered a swift cheetah named Serena, known for her incredible speed. They also discovered Jasper, a wise and ancient turtle whose shell possessed immense strength. Lastly, they found the true protector of the planet, Peep the Phoenix of the Sun, whose wings could harness the element of fire.
United as a formidable team, Orion the owl, Alistair the fox, Serena the cheetah, Jasper the turtle, and Peep the phoenix set out to stop Doshi's sinister plans. Their first task was to harness their own mythical powers, bestowed upon them by the magic of the enchanted forest. Through rigorous training and tests of bravery, they grew stronger and more confident.
But as they delved deeper into their quest, they faced countless dramatic situations. Doshi, sensing the threat of the animals gaining power, unleashed his dragon minions to stamp out any hope of rebellion. Fierce battles ensued among the animal kingdoms and the dragonite forces, testing the limits of the team's newfound abilities and the alliances of their species.
Through their determination and unwavering bond, the animals overcame each challenge thrown their way. They grew bolder and more skillful, understanding that their mission was not just to save themselves but to protect all of mankind from Doshi's tyrannical rule.
Finally, the day of the ultimate confrontation arrived. The animals, now infused with incredible power, faced the malevolent dragon in a climactic battle that shook the very foundations of the Human realm. Flames clashed with wind, rocks collided with water, and the sky crackled with electricity.
In the end, the combined strength and unwavering bravery of the animals proved mightier than Doshi's evil ambitions. Weakened and defeated, the dragon retreated back to his forsaken realm, vowing to return to the Human world again someday to destroy mankind's rule over the minds of the beast.
The animals, hailed as heroes, bid farewell to one another, their bond forever cherished. They returned to their respective homes, bringing balance to the beast kingdoms for centuries, their powers receding but their spirits forever engraved into the very nature of the world. Orion transformed into a star constellation, watching over the human race, protecting and providing them with wisdom, Jasper became a dam, producing fertile landscapes and planted himself as a border between animals and humans. Alistair decided to hide among the humans as a secret guardian of the Human realm. Serena married and crowned the first king of the Beast of Natural Order and gave birth to two powerful twin cubs named Fen Yeng and Fen Yang. Mankind once again bathed in serenity, unaware of the tale of how bravery and unity triumphed over the darkest of evil.
Many years later, Lilith, mother of all half-breeds, hybrids, and humanoids sought to create an heir from pure dragon blood in order to destroy the Demon King Sotan. Ancient animal legend spoke of an evil dragon from a distant mythical realm that was exiled from the human realm by the ancestors of the wilderness centuries before her reign. She proclaimed her rule as being greater than all beasts and humans, denouncing the authority of the ancestors at the same time. Having been angered by the historical truths, she decided to summon Doshi into this realm, so he can once again reign. She created a massive army of were-beasts to find the seal of light, but it was a failure each time. Until one day she learns of the Rite of the Seal, a ritual that ignores the boundaries of mortal reality and can reach into different dimensions, allowing passage between the multitude of vast universes. The Reàl Sacrifices were the eight legendary artifacts that were needed to perform the ritual. This ritual has its consequences and freakishly side effects because they were of Demonic and Dragonite origin yet mankind used it for access to powerful weapons, resources, and technologies.
Using her power of global mind control she quickly located the Reàl Sacrifices. She began the Rite of the Seal. The sky grew darker and darker as flashing light filled the horizon, a portal ripped through the clouds and emerging from its radiant heat and glooming glow was Doshi, spiraling out of this doomed dimension in three different directions, stretching across the horizon as far as the eye can see.
The first thing he did was kill three of the five ancient animal guardians that imprisoned him. Jasper and Alistair fought bravely but were the first to give their lives. Peep was killed by Doshi but was to be reborn a decade later as Koran. Secondly, he mated with Lilith in order to create a half human half dragon bloodline. Lastly, he prepared to fight alongside Lilith against the demon king Sotan. At the same time mankind has discovered the existence of dragons and started to hunt them down to weaponize their remains.
At these times, Emperor Goneucho perpared to battle the Demon King Sotan for the rape and slaughtering of his kingdom and beloved Queen Aurora. He has united the armies of mankind into a single fortified legion in order to match the might of demons and dragons. Goneucho hunted Doshi for years until he uncovered his hideout. Deep in the depths in caves beneath the desert of Eastern Province, mankind's emperor makes a pact with the king of all dragons to aid him against the demon king. This event would bring about the Exile of the Three Kings, fulfilling the prophecy of the Omen.
Chapter 18
The Celestial Realm
The moment Goneucho performs the ritual of the Reál Sacrifice to release the Seal of Limbo that entrapped Sotan, he unknowingly cracked the Seal of Light in the realm of Dragonsberg.
To be continued...
