Greetings, traveler of time and space. My name is Chromey. I am a manifestation of the will of the universe. I will be taking you through the journey of how the shadow has influenced Ty. This fractured time Alternate history started all the way back with Ray Talen.
But don't worry if you are here to see what a young Quinn will do.
But first, let's take a glimpse into the future and see where this is going.
Well, Traveler, let's see what's happening.
Oh, how interesting. It looks like Quinn is fighting himself in the most terrifying situation.
Oh, is that 16 spikes on it? A scarab queen? Oof.
Truly a devastating thing. As Quinn is fighting his way through the enemies.
and trying to deal with this massive creature, he fights and struggles
Many people around him are wounded and injured.
Well then, time's up. That's a nice little peek at that. Let's go a little bit closer to the time we're at.
Ah, the second outing.
As they are preparing to move out, a massive alarm rings out at the base.
"Ah, they're here. A little early, but that's fine," Arthur says. "Well then, let's move out."
Ray chuckled,
"Is it okay that you guys are just going to go out there and defeat this horde by yourself?" Quinn said.
"No, no. We'll have help, but we should be just fine," Arthur said, "Well, this is getting…
"concerning. Aren't there too many of them that are way too powerful? I think that Nest's collection over there and on the planet is getting a little too out of hand," Ray was saying.
Arthur responded, "I'm sure it's getting a little out of hand, but it's still within reason. And I know I'm powerful enough, I can go over there and remove a few of them to reduce the power. But it seems to be doing all right."
Ray said, "Well, I already can see five demon tiers with this horde. That's a little above average for most planets, isn't it?"
Arthur said, "Sure, I'm sure it's a problem, but nothing I haven't dealt with before."
As the two begin walking towards the gate, the entire class behind Quinn trembles in fear over such news.
Leo was getting concerned. "Should we even be here?"
As the other sergeants look. And shrug. Silver stood up and spoke, "I'm sure that everything will be okay. Those two are just maniacs anyhow. They enjoy this insanity too much. But that's okay. We can deal with this. I'm sure that once they're done playing around, they may actually take some seriousness about the situation. But…"
Time will be time for some of this stuff. Not everything is going to be crystal clear.
As such, we need to focus on moving out and heading into the other part.
There are a lot easier creatures on the opposite side of the base from the gate.
There is a collection of areas where we can gather low-level creatures.
Silver ushered the class in that direction.
"Is it normal for this planet to be so misty and rather forest-heavy?" Layla said.
Vincent spoke up, "I'm sure it does seem like a lot, but it's actually not that bad. And yes, it is rather misty all the time. It tends to rain a lot around here, too. But not something to be totally surprised about, but I mean, it works."
Time's up. Whoa, that was interesting. Let's go take you to where the story will begin. Oh no, I know something's wrong, Spell. This isn't right, I'm gonna have to fix this thing. Give me a moment, you can just watch this insanity.
Now they were going to deal with the biggest threat that had been plaguing the continent. The Shadow Plague. The Shadow Plague lands have been hostile, uninhabitable, and unusable by any species. They prepared to march into one of these fortresses to conquer and take back a portion of the land.
But something had changed before they could even start their campaign. A portal on a distant planet in another galaxy. These scarabs reached out and communicated with the Death God. He was amused, offered them, and granted them power. This transformed the scarab species into demon scarabs. These devastatingly powerful creatures now served him, and they formed a colony similar to ants with a queen, and they prepared to conquer the universe.
On Earth, this alternate universe had caused a transformation. The creatures that were part of the Shadow Plague all of a sudden started disappearing. The humans who were infested with the shadow plague were freed.
All of a sudden, the shadow plague itself that infested the land had retreated to the main fortress. The master informed the black dragon of the new information. The rest of the troops were called back through the portal in preparation elsewhere, not realizing the portal had changed locations and was being redirected to a different planet. And then it closed. The black dragon was there to fight whatever came his way.
Ray and his army began their march and arrived at the first fortress. There in front of the fortress, Gary held the gauntlet in his hand, but something strange had happened. He was kneeling, and Ray walked up to his old friend with disappointment in his eyes. Gary went ahead and extended his hand, offering it to be cut off. Ray obliged and slashed down, severing his arm. Ray waited for the gauntlet to transform back, but nothing happened, so Ray picked it up through the arm piece and stuck his own hand into it. The gauntlet immediately bound to himself. He immediately felt a pull on other parts of the armor pieces that he was not aware of before. Suddenly, he realized there was more out there, so he led the army away from the fortress, taking a different path to an old abandoned castle, where everything was revealed.
He found his armor that was made from his own core. The crystal that all creatures of such power had. And there was his old body. Ray was furious at the witch for doing this, but he knew that since she had been working with the Red Wing Army, he could not be upset anymore. So he prepared his forces to move and head back over and destroy the black dragon for the last time. They moved and marched towards the Black Dragon's fortress.
But this time, instead of being in a struggle to defeat him, it was a massacre. The black dragon could not fight against them all and was defeated. His power was ripped out by Ray, the black dragon's power no more.
The dragon's final words to Ray were, "You have no idea what you have brought upon yourself. I may have failed, but there are plans beyond your understanding. This world will no longer be safe. He knows this planet. He knows about you. He will not be willing to lie down and go quietly. He will come to this planet, and he'll try to do everything to destroy it. There will be no safety for you."
The black dragon was dead. Ray thought about what was going on. He considered what was going on that day and looked towards the chaos that it had brought upon that day, realizing that there was more to the story than he expected.
Over time, Ray continued saving people and eventually reached 999. That day, the Empire began its campaign, finally figuring out the weapon and destroying everything in its path.
Ray found out his mother was tied to that very weapon. Their ancestral weapon. He hurried and went to rescue his mother, managed to destroy the weapon, and, in doing so, finally transformed himself back into the red dragon.
He took off and brought his mother home, but he was able to transform back into a human. For a time being, he lived with his family and his mother. And he slowly backed away from the family as they grew up as time went by, knowing that he would live forever, but they would not.
At a request from Ray, after the concerns of things happening in the world, it didn't stop at the altered being a problem, but other things that kept coming up, forcing Ray to ask Richard Eno to intervene and help steer the human race in the right direction. With the cooperation of those three together, they prevented any major calamities.
Sometime before the war started.
The future was starting to become chaotic. The Ancient Ones were preparing for that. They knew they couldn't destroy the system where the demon scarabs were. There wasn't much left of it now because the demon scarabs had completely devoured whole planets.
They had the ability to actually transform and consume planets and even stars. They were truly becoming dangerous. They're feeding all this power, preparing to open the gateway, and having their armies strengthened. They were truly becoming dangerous beyond belief.
But the ancient ones could not move on them. Any chance of them trying to wipe out the entire solar system would risk opening the rift even without them trying. No matter what they tried, they would open the portal and doom themselves. So they chose to stay back and reinforce what they could around. They wouldn't have to worry about the portal being open. They finally discovered a way to do this.
They discovered a family, the Talens. They were altering history without even trying. Quinn Talen, this young human, had the potential to change everything. There was an order issued to help him get a change in the future. Bliss went to the vampires to ask if they had an heir of one of their families to go and help Quinn Talen.
Quinn was almost 14 and needed training before succumbing to mandatory conscription to the military Academy at the age of 16. The 13th family leader decided to step forward and offer to allow their younger brother to join his side, this mighty female leader being named Silver.
She thought her brother would be perfect for this role. These two were chosen to go to the academy with Quinn Talen, who was the heir of the 10th family. Along with the first family son, Nicu.
Everyone knew that Quinn was there, being protected by the Punishers, and no one ever bothered to interfere.
Things were still happening over on the main world of the Punishers. A human family was rescued and brought over to this world. Of course, humans on Earth did not know about this place to prevent any fear-based ideals.
This was a special place for the Punishers. But they were prepared for war. There, Quinn Talen, a boy who was merely one year old with his parents. They knew that both of them were going to be needed for the upcoming war. The Punishers had announced this to everyone to make sure that everyone was prepared. Of course, these three were still human.
But they were going to be given the ritual to officially become members of the Punishers. They said that their son was too young to receive the ritual, so he'd have to wait. But then something changed. Orders from someone else, saying that the boy needed to receive a special book from Richard Eno.
When the time was right and the elders all agreed, he would receive it. The book was placed under care until the time was right. He would receive it later on as a memento. The parents realized the war was going to be ugly and weren't sure they wanted to give it to him early. They decided to hold on to it, but then it happened.
The war broke out, and Earth was severely attacked. All 14 factions of the vampires rushed over to Earth as soon as possible to help out the humans.
some time after the war.
Vincent Eno, leader of the 10th family, prepared his estate to be passed to Quinn when he's ready. Richard Eno was the original leader of the Eno Family. When he discovered Jim Eno, Vincent Eno's uncle, had betrayed the family and fled.
Richard pursued Jim to prevent further disgrace and arrest him for the crimes he had already committed. Jim managed to get away and escaped, joining the armies of the demon scarabs. He was found to be a Dedicated Follower of Immortui. He was going to gain more power than ever before. But truly a scary situation.
As time has gone by, young 14-year-old Quinn Talen was told how to unlock the book and allowed to gain an ability. He didn't understand, but was quickly brought to the Punisher planet to be trained. with two others.
He was not aware that they were vampires, but soon, as the book opened for him, he gained a system. He found out that he was a vampire now. There were other vampires out there. Then he was given the ability. The shadow ability, which ruffled many of the vampire families.
