Bring forth the endless winter, let the liars suffer under the frigid shadow of their own demise. A darkness descends, I shall be in the center of the black abyss. The tendrils of suffering shall wrap around their throats, their pierced screams silenced by the finality of their sins. The seducer awakens inside....forgive me, I am not human. He is the Harbinger, and he awakens in a smoldering field, embers cast aside all around him as he slowly sits up, his eyes glowing red and a look of horrific intent strewn across his face. His jet black hair falls wild around him, his eyes wide as he looks around, gritting his teeth.
That....bastard. He's ruined everything!
The Harbinger slowly gets to his feet as he looks up at the flickering light of the moon, his domain had come to fruition once more, yet something had awoken even deeper. He understood full well the irony of the situation, a monster had taken control over him just as he had done with the Ouija Scroll. He can't help but laugh as he throws his head back, his arms spread out a bit from his sides as the flickering of flames that remain swirl around him. He looks down at his right hand, slowly lifting it up as the flames ensnare him as soon the screen is completely covered in flames. It then goes black for a but a moment, and soon returns to Ty collapsing down upon his obsidian throne, the flowing river of fire surrounding all around the steps of bone. His breathing is heavy, as he tries to push himself up slowly into a seated position.
Not even Chaos can handle such a monstrosity. My power is weak, and my time is even shorter. It's a shame that fool couldn't go through with the plan. I would rather die than be the meal that feeds such a beast, and I no doubt believe Tyrone would be inclined to agree.
He yells out in pain as if his body is rejecting him, grabbing at his chest as he leans forward, his head touching his knees as he does everything he can to keep control. A flurry of purple can be seen, as the robed Serafina suddenly appears. She stands in front of The Harbinger, a look of concern on her face, yet she makes no movement towards him, a long curved dagger in her hand with the blade facing backwards. The Harbinger slowly looks up, gritting his teeth as he looks to his muse.
Serafina.....please.
I will not be fooled once again. I know full well what will happen again monster!
Serafina! It's me Ty! Stop this at once and get me the Ouija! It's our only chance!
Ty's outburst freezes Serafina, her determined voice wavering as the conflict continues inside. She takes a step forward, lifting the dagger up and aims right for Ty's heart, her eyes flashing purple as tears stream down her face. The Harbinger closes his eyes and turns away.
I know full well you have to do this Serafina. I do not blame you. For all the suffering I've put you through, for every ill word spoken in your direction, this is justified. Please......just forgive me if you feel it necessary.
Serafina stands over him, lowering the dagger slowly as she shakes her head, the tears coming full force once more.
I....I just can't do this Ty! No matter what he threatens me with, I can't do it. I can't lose you and Tyrone at the same time.
She falls to her knees, sobbing uncontrollably as the daggers drops to the ground. Ty slides off his throne slowly, sitting across from her as he reaches out for her hand. She withdraws momentarily, but grabs his hand and clenches it tightly.
Hell stands between the two of us Serafina. And we must traverse the path laid down ahead of us if we are to ever be the same again.
Is that The Harbinger, Tyrone, or the beast talking?
It's Ty...the Harbinger. Serafina we have been through so much. We have defeated great enemies, and now we face something stronger than us for the first time. We are not worthy of being the exalted if we fail now!
She looks up at him and wipes away her tears, nodding her head slowly as she reaches into her robe, pulling out the Ouija Scroll. She looks down at the old parchment for several moments before slowly extending her arm to the Harbinger. He reaches out and takes hold of it, his head and body suddenly jerking back as let's out a roar, his eyes glowing a bright red and soon the entire screen is flooded with a red light. As it dissipates, it soon is revealed.....that I am not human. The soothsayer betrayed by his own machinations, he soon falls back to the chains laid out before him. His power now stripped away, he is a broken shell. Trapped forever in the madness of his own mind. The weak one watches with despair, failure damning them both again. The siren stands, hope in her eyes, there is none to be found.
T.....Ty? Are you yourself again?
The beast wraps his claws around the crutch of the messenger, tearing into the parchment slowly. There is nothing left in this, only the memories of a desolated god. He trembles at the feet of the demon, his power usurped.
Foolish is the one that trembles.
She has become the discarded.
Though each saw her in different lights.
Ultimately she was their weakness.
Cast aside the woman that scorns.
Create unto her the loyalty needed.
To be worthy of his presence!
The beast grabs her once more, a scream of panic and fear pierces through the veil of this domain. Silent and Dark, The Everlasting Sky forms around them. The bleakness is only made worse by the death of the stars themselves. Eternities pass, empires crumble. Kings become corpses, nothing more than the earth they once ruled. Heroes slain, their broken bodies cast upon the pile like the rest. The scream dies, and soon the siren becomes the same as the fanged. As the melody of death slowly rings forward, so too does her carnal instincts come to life. Chains wrap around her neck and wrists, becoming one with flesh and bone. Her voice is gone, leaving behind the animalistic. She belongs to the beast now, her soul cast away to join her beloved cursed.
Trapped forever in the cell.
The prisoners shall beckon to the call of insanity.
Torn asunder, they will break down to their base.
Prey upon the cornered game.
There shall be no escape.
Alliances are dead.
Let them know the ultimate savagery.
There is no forgiveness.
There is only....
Desecration.
