Legends of Lore: Danitia

Legend foretold that a hero would emerge in this dark ageof chaos, andit happened that I, Danitia, picked up a simple wooden stick and my mage robes and decided to head out into the crazy world of Lore, to fight against all danger that is lurking on each corner that you can imagine. Of course, I hungeredfor a greater power which I would receive from Drakath himself. After a few years fighting for Gravelyn and the forces of evil, that da came. I got a hit against the back of my headand got knocked out. When I woke up, I found myself on a small island in a realm that looked like Lore.

‘Whoa where am I?’
‘Danitia. You keep amazing me. I felt that you have a certain interest for a greater power, that goes beyond, no?’ said a voice which I recognized from a long time ago, during the fight between Sepulchure and King Alteon.
‘Drakath! Why am I here?’ I asked.
‘You... I have infused you with the power of chaos. You can shape chaos to your liking now!’ replied Drakath annoyed.
‘Oh yes! I can feel it!’ I replied while I felt a strange energy running through my vains.

Drakath approached me with Sepulchure’s Blade. He held it up as if it was a souvenir and then tossed it right into the ground. The blade didn’t break, but gave a red energy burst in a small explosion around it.

‘Bah. So, Danitia. What shall we do next? I need to unleash a new chaos lord soon, and I have more candidates. I told you, I would save you for last, remember?’ said Drakath.
‘The twins?’ I asked.
‘Brilliant. Lets call them. Twins! I need your moral councelling now!’ he shouted, making them appear.
‘Drakath, first send Danitia home.’ said one of the twins.
‘No. Send her home and let her do some random acts of destruction!’ spoke the other.
‘Good plan, Danitia. You heard them. Go home and destroy some random things.’ said Drakath.

Upon that I was teleported away, finding myself in my house again. I went to Yulgar, with my new armor and outfit. I looked like Drakath himself now in this armor, horrorfying but I felt very comfortable. I decided to keep a diary from now, to keep track of my actions. Drakath had somehow told me about the dangers of Chaos and its unpredictiveness, and my years here in Lore have shown me how Chaos can be. So caution was required. I went to Arcangrove the first day with Drakath his gift. The power was tremendous and unbelievable. Then I went home when the evening fell. I lit a few candles and stood on the balcony of my tower looking over lore. ThenI decided to sit down and write my first day in my Diary.

‘Day 1. Dear Diary, this inredible power that Drakath gave me feels as if I was born with it. I don’t think I would lose myself in the chaos, but we still have to be very carefull. I had reasons to doubt if Drakath would keep his word, but he honestly did. Soon, I will chaorrupt Gravelyn and take over the Shadowscythe by myself. Gravelyn is too weak to rule the empire by herself, so the empire will need a new ruler. I would be the perfect candidate as I can now shape chaos to what I want. Drakath also gave me the chaos warrior armor, which I can use with my necromancy skills,and some very fine blades which are razor sharp and have a good grip. For now, dear diary... I still have no sleep, maybe this is one of the side effects from Chaos? I don’t know but we’ll see. Danitia out.’

The next day, I sort of woke up,feeling even more powerfull than the day before. I directly went downstairs for a raspberry smoothie and outside for some fresh air. Then I headed down to battleontown and went inside Yulgar’s inn. There were some local heroes, but not much to do so I went back outside towards greenguard forest, where I sat down onto a rock and started to ponder.

‘I wonder what would be the perfect time to overthrow Gravelyn and seize her throne. How would I do it? Brute force? or use undead minions?’ Suddenly, the twins appeared.

‘Looks like you’re in need of some councelling, Danitia.’ spoke one of them.
‘You could indeedio use some moral advice here.’ spoke the other.
‘What would you guys do in this matter?’ I asked.
‘Overthrowing Gravelyn with brute force, you had that chance when she was held captive’ replied one twin.
‘Seizing control over her undead minions is not an option, she controls all’ said the other.
‘She shows weakness of all kinds when Shadowfall is attacked. Attack Shadowfall and she will be weak’ they both agreed.
I stood up from the rock and wandered up and down. Pondering more and more. The chaos energy inside me hungered for action, but I just didn’t know where to put it into action.
‘How about... chaorrupting a few of her undead mages?’ asked one of her twins.
‘chaorrupt her self!’ said the other twin. ‘That is much and much better, look what that did to Alteon?’ she continued.
‘Brilliant!’ I laughed. ‘But how to execute this plan?’ I continued.

Then I stood up, but instead of going to Shadowfall, I headed into Greenguard forest to cause some random chaos, and slay some creatures. Attacking Gravelyn would soon be on my todo list. I noticed that the evening started to fall. I headed back to my house, and needed advice from more people around me. This wasn’t worth a diary entry, but I still decided to write into the diary after I lit the candles.

‘Day 2. Dear diary. Today the energy in my body started to burst into more and it is hungering for action. I decided to plot a attack on Shadowfall to seize the throne from Gravelyn. I want to takeover the Shadowscythe for serving my own purposes... wealth, riches and power. Gravelyn is weak when she’s under attack, our experience with Noxus attacking her has shown that. My plan is to chaorrupt her and her undead mages so that anti-rebellion spells will backfire on them. That requires me to head down to my library and read more on necromancy and how to implement chaos magic into such dark arts. For now, I need to rest, dear diary. Danitia out.’

Then I headed downstairs, to my library where I got a book on necromancy, which I took back upstairs. Then I started reading in the book. The key was to learn how a undead mage casts spells and what kind of magic is used by this process. ‘To reverse a undead caster spell, you must affect the life force of the skeletal cage. In this case, the resurrected mage does not posess its own magic, but the magic of its creator. In order for a necromancer to take over control of this life force, a rebellion spell is used. The other necromancer infuses the life force with his or her magic in order to make the life force do what its owner wants. This can only be done if the magic used is stronger than the magic from the original necromancer...’ I started reading this page. ‘Hmm interesting, this means you can actually steal a undead minion from someone else...’ I muttered. Then I fell asleep until the morning fell. I yawned and looked out of the window over the forest where I heard the birds tweet. ‘Another great day for study!’ I smiled and jumped back onto my bed and continued reading. ‘The stolen minion will do everything its new owner tells it to do, as it is enslaved to its new owner. However, the original owner can still claim his or her minion back by reversing the rebellion spell, depending on the strength of his or her magic.’ read the page further...

Suddenly I heard footsteps below me and a dark face came up the hole of my attic bedroom. I saw the red eyes. It was Drakath.

‘Well well... studying are we, apprentice?’ said Drakath.
‘Yes. I wat to overthrow Gravelyn and take over the Shadowscythe!’ I replied.
‘Brilliant idea, apprentice. Let me know if I can help. What are you studying?’ replied Drakath.
'A book on necromancy... and how I can eventually chaorrupt Gravelyn or her undead mages’ I replied.
‘Chaos magic can be used for necromancy indeed, apprentice.’ replied Drakath with a sinister smile. ‘I am also very delighted that I chose you as my apprentice and infused you with chaos energy. I was aware of your deeds and followed your every step’ he continued.
‘Trust me, you won’t regret this, Drakath.’ I replied.
‘Hahahahahahaha’ he laughed. ‘But now, for a more important matter. I need a idea for a diversion. The land of Lore didn’t hear fromme in a long time. What should I do?’ he continued.
‘As you speak, you could eventually get a hold of your chaos lords and unleash them again?’ I answered.
‘Possible, but I have no idea where they are. I want to create a new chaos beast, something strong, powerfull and wicked.’ replied Drakath.
‘Maybe I can help? I studied necromancy... I can create a undead general and infuse it with chaos energy?’ I replied.
‘To dramatic... but.... a flying fortress with a chaotic dracolich sounds like a plan. Do you have enough power to resurrect a dragon?’ asked Drakath.
‘Dragons take a lot of energy to revive... but allow me to ponder it.’ I answered.
‘Excellent. Continue your study, apprentice. I will visit you tonight.’ he replied and vanished through the window.

I rested myself down back onto the bed and got the book again. ‘Using a different kind of magic other than issued by the darkness orb can be very dangerous and unpredictable. Stealing a minion with such magic is usually a guarantee that the minion cannot be drawn back by its original owner.’ read another part of the page. ‘Bingo’ I muttered. ‘So if I would chaorupt the undead legion from Gravelyn, its unlikely she can reverse those spells...’ I muttered again. I went outside to Darkovia. There, the elder vampire asked me to collect Ancient Vitae’s for him, it was quite a task but I just started out killing monsters around the vampire queen her castle. Doing that for a few hours distracted me kind of from my tasks that I was asked to do, whereunder that what Drakath had asked me, and to keep my thoughts of taking over Shadowfall. I went home when the evening fell, but I decided to go to my second house instead of my tower, but first I went to my tower to leave a note for Drakath and I took the book and candles with me. Once I arrived there, I lit the candles and jumped upon the bed and continued reading the book. I knew Drakath would soon come once he read the note.

Chapter 2: The clash!

That night, Drakath came.
‘Apprentice. Have you thought about our dracolich?’ he asked.
‘Yes I have. Once we seize control over Shadowfall, we will build that dracolich back together and infuse it with chaos energy’ I replied.
‘Brilliant’ smiled Drakath. ‘How soon do you wish to attack?’ he continued.
‘Very soon. Tomorrow I will start preparing’ I replied.
‘Very well, I will meet you tomorrow night’ said Drakath and he disappeared into the darkness of my house.

I stood up from the bed and headed for my desk, to my diary.

‘Day 3. Dear diary, the energy in my body is reaching its climax. I will soon come into action and seize control over Shadowfall and the Shadowscythe empire. Overthrow empress Gravelyn and capture her, or eventually kill her. Then we will revive the dracolich so that the fortress of the Shadowscythe will fly again, and then I will assist Drakath in his aid to take over Swordhaven and overthrow King Alteon and claim what is rightfully his. For now I am tired and need to rest. Danitia out.’

After I wrote that, I had a satisfied feeling when I went back to bed and fell asleep. The next morning I woke up very early, it was still dark outside. In the distance I saw Shadowfall through the forest when I looked out of the window. I went outside and walked through the forest towards Shadowfall. About an hour later I arrived there at the entrance of the fortress. There I carefully casted spells to chaorupt the skeletal guards...which worked. They were under my control now, the strange brief purple glow in their eyes told me that. I then approached the throne room.

‘Danitia. Good morning. Its always a pleasure to see you. What can I do for you at this time?’ asked Gravelyn.
‘Not much, empress. I just thought I’d come check on here.’ I replied.
‘Its still early. Any plans for today?’ she asked.
‘Many, empress. Many.’ I replied with a brief smile.

I turned around telling Gravelyn I would check back later. I went to the trainers room, where another skeletal minion was standing. I casted a rebellion spell on the skeleton too. In this short time I was at the fortress I already had 3 minions under my control, but I just couldn’t find Gravelyn her mages, so I just decided to wait a little longer. I knew Drakath would be around to watch what I am doing, but I couldn’t care less. I went back inside the throne room.

‘Empress... where are your mage’s?’ I asked.
‘Why do you want to know, Danitia?’ she asked.
‘Just curious, are they safe? Because I sense a attack on Shadowfall may follow again soon’ I replied.
‘They are behind my throne’ replied Gravelyn with a faint smile, and she kind of stared at me.

I had to be carefull that she wouldn’t get suspicious. Time went by slowly and the day broke through. I kept Gravelyn company for so long until the moment of attack was drawing near each passing minute. I chaorupted a few more of her soldiers and summoned them to the throneroom. Then I stood back onto my feet and faced Gravelyn in her eyes.

‘Danitia! What is going on! Why are the minions revolting!?’ asked Gravelyn in panic.
‘Foolish little girl. They’re my minions now.’ I replied.
‘What!? You.... you betrayed my trust? You were the only one of a few I trusted! How...’ muttered Gravelyn.
‘I want the throne. You are incapable of ruling the Shadowscythe! I will take over.’ I said with firm voice.
‘I don’t think so! Minions! Seize her!’ shouted Gravelyn.

I started to chaorupt the mages behind her throne, they were the source of her army so starting there would be a tactical move, which worked. I knocked Gravelyn of the throne and tied her to it with a foot chain.

‘Chuckles won’t be here to rescue you this time, little girl.’ I spoke firmly.

Then I walked upon the throne and sat down, taking Sepulchure’s Blade from the side. I wondered how it got there, as the last time I saw it it was on Drakath his island. I felt confident and satisfied. I just had overthrown Gravelyn by surprise. Gravelyn looked up at me.

‘Please Danitia. Tell me this is a joke... or a practice or something... you’re not doing this, are you?’ she stumbled.
‘Minion!’ I shouted. ‘Send out a message throughout the entire Shadowscythe Empire that Queen Danitia has seized the throne from Gravelyn and has overthrown her might and power. Danitia is now the sole ruler of the Shadowscythe Empire’ I continued once a messenger arrived.
‘Aaaatrrrreeeeewwwww’ replied the messenger and he walked off.

Meanwhile I chaorupted more of Gravelyn her forces, making them align with my side. I instructed a few skeletal spear fighters to guard the entrance to Shadowfall firmly as well as other rooms. I handcuffed Gravelyn stuck to her footchains so that she couldn’t move in any direction, just to be sure. I walked outside towards the room where Dage the Evil was, a commander from the undead legion. I had him promise me not to interfere with the empire its business. I went back to the throne, and summoned the undead mages to me.

‘First thing I am going to change.... undeads may talk again if they can! The stupid Arrreww rule is over’ I spoke.
‘Good thing, your majesty!’ replied one of the mages.
‘Mages, can we make our fortress fly again?’ I asked and looked at them. They scratched their heads.
‘That would be very difficult, your highness. Seeing that parts of the dragon are gone.’ replied another mage.
‘Im...impossible!’ stumbled Gravelyn.
‘Hush little girl.’ I said while I casted a spell to silence her once and for all.
‘So if we find spare parts for the dragon, can you guys make it fly again?’ I continued.
‘Unlikely, my Queen. The skeleton has taken too much damage from the crash, we may as well find a new skeleton’ replied one of the mages.
‘Thank you, that would be all for now.’ I replied upon which they disappeared behind my throne again.

I sat down on the throne and started to think about Gravelyn and what I would do with her. Then Drakath came.

‘Truly amazing.... Danitia.’ he laughed. ‘You actually did it.’ he continued.
‘Yes. But I have bad news, Drakath. We can’t make this thing fly. We need a new dracolich and build a new fortress on its back’ I replied briefly.
‘Thats no problem, I didn’t really expect a flying fortress anyway. I am just amazed that you pulled this off’ replied Drakath, while he walked upon Gravelyn and poked her ear.
‘So.... are you darkness and doom too?’ he continued with a question for Gravelyn.
‘I silenced her, Drakath. She can’t speak anymore.’ I smiled.
‘Brilliant’ said Drakath.
‘Now what shall we do with her? Torture? Kill?’ I asked Drakath.
‘I’ll leave that up to you, you are the new ruler of the Shadowscythe, Danitia.’ smiled Drakath.
‘Well well well, Gravelyn. Since you have always been so nice to me, I have decided to let you live. You will become Shadowfall’s first royal prisoner. In the chamber behind the skeleton in the central hall, there are cells.’ I spoke. ‘I will escort you myself together with a few minions, Gravelyn.’ I continued. I released her footchain and forced her to walk with me and two skeletal minions. We arrived in the prison block where I put her behind bars, locked the door and applied to footchain again, magically. I also applied a magical chaotic force field on the cell door, so that she wouldn’t be able to pick the lock or anything. Then, I returned to the throne room.

‘With her locked away, nothing can stop us now!’ I said with a broad grin on my face.
‘You forgot about the pathetic truce and Alteon’ replied Drakath. ‘Once he hears this, the heroes will come slay you’ he continued.
‘Dang, I forgot about that!’ I replied surprised. ‘What do I do now?’ I asked.
‘I think your best shot would be offering to continue the truce without problems’ replied Drakath.
‘A internal affair of the Shadowscythe empire is of course not Alteon his problem’ he continued.
‘Drakath, don’t you want Swordhaven for yourself? It is rightfully yours, is it not?’ I asked.
‘True, but I don’t intend to mess with Alteon for now. First I want to seed more chaos.’ he answered.
‘Throughout Lore, rumors were going that Gravelyn was too weak anyway’ I smiled.

Then, for the rest of the day, nothing happened and the evening fell on which I decided to head to my house. I offered Drakath a place to stay in Shadowfall and made sure that Shadowfall is sealed shut by my undead forces, nothing could happen. Once I arrived home, I lit the candles and sat down behind my desk to write in my diary.

‘Day 4. Dear diary. As I wrote yesterday, I took over the throne of the Shadowscythe Empire, and may now call myself the supreme ruler of it. Queen Danitia of the Shadowscythe was born today. I imprisoned Gravelyn, as my heart couldn’t bare to kill her, and the Shadowscythe now has a capable ruler whom shall not rest until its glory, meant by Sepulchure, has been restored. After all, Gravelyn is only a child, so killing her was just a little too much, even for me. So keeping her imprisoned and well fed is the least I can do for her, and turn her into my apprentice so that I can return the Shadowscythe to her, once she’s ready for ruling it. For now, dear diary, I am going to read further in my book on Necromancy and the darkness orb, which I want to attach to my soul with the help of a soulweaver. Maybe, just maybe, I can lay my hands on a chaotic darkness orb. For now, Danitia out.’


Then I rushed to my bed, jumped into it and got to my book, where the passage was still open. I decided to skip a few pages until something interesting about the Darkness orb caught my eyes.
‘Employing the Darkness Orb. There are verious ways to unite yourself with the darkness orb. One person has proven to us that it is possible, and his name was Lord Sepulchure from the Shadowscythe Empire. The darkness orb was his heart and the energy issued by it was his lifeforce. That way Sepulchure was truly undead and had no further connections with the world of the living, not even as a lich. To have such a operation done, you require a strong soulweaver whom can unite the lifeforce of your soul with the force of the orb. This process is only known to soulweavers throughout Lore. The process itself seems simple but can yet be... very dangerous. That is why Sally recommends to hire the most experienced soulweaver of Lore.... Tomix.’ The page read. Now this would make it interesting, and I decided to summon a undead messenger towards my house.

‘Messenger! I want you to locate a person named Tomix for me, and tell him that Queen Danitia from the Shadowscythe requires his assistance on a certain matter.’ I spoke to him when he arrived.
‘I understand, Mistress. I will try to locate Tomix and ask him to head straight to Shadowfall tomorrow.’ replied the messenger, upon which he disappeared out of the house, into the night of Doomwood forest.
I decided to go to sleep. About a few hours later, it was nearly dawn again, so I stood up and headed down to Shadowfall. There, I fixed Gravelyn her breakfast, which I brought down to her in her prison cell. A complete plate with sandwhiches and tea.
‘Gravelyn, I want to talk to you.’ I spoke firmly.
‘What is left to discuss? you took the throne from me, and the Shadowscythe. So what is there left to discuss?’ she asked.
‘I will return the Shadowscythe to you, once you are ready to rule it, Gravelyn. Right now, you aren’t ready.’ I replied.
‘If I wanted to take it over with a hostile takeover, then I would’ve killed you already’ I continued.
‘So instead... you want to teach me the basics on how to rule these ruins that daddy left me?’ asked Gravelyn.
‘Indeed. So, are you with me, or against me?’ I asked.
‘In this case I am with you, I trust you enough to believe you that all you want is to help.’ replied Gravelyn.

Upon that, I uncuffed her chains and footchains and opened the celldoor, after that, we walked back to her throne room. There, the messenger from last night was already waiting for me.

‘Queen Danitia. I have returned from the Soulweaver Tomix. He told me once you posess the Chaotic Darkness Orb, you must send me again so that he can unite the force of the orb together with the lifeforce of your soul, which would be instantly sucked up by the orb. The orb is then your soul, meaning you are no longer alive or dead, but also not balancing inbetween. You will become a elemental energy, with a power that groes beyond that kind of power that many heroes here on Lore hunger for.’ spoke the messenger.
‘Very well, then I have to go find the Darkness Orb and chaorupt it.’ I replied.
‘Search no longer, Danitia. I have it right here.’ smiled Gravelyn, holding up a small glowing black ball with red enery bursts around it. She gave it to me.
‘Very well, Messenger. Go get Tomix!’ I spoke to the messenger.
‘Your wish is my command, Mistress.’ spoke te messenger and he rushed outside the castle again to get Tomix.

We waited for a few hours, and then the messenger finally returned with Tomix, the Soulweaver. In the meantime I casted some chaorruption spells upon the darkness orb, and it also issued purplish energy bursts through the red and black.

‘Queen Danitia, Empress Gravelyn. Its a pleasure to see you after such a long time!’ smiled Tomix.
‘Yes indeed. But to business. I want a elemental unity with the Chaotic Orb of Darkness, Tomix. Can this be done?’ I asked.
‘Yes. I need to release your life force from your body, or soon to be called skeletal cage So that the orb can absorb and strengthen it, and then the orb will be placed inside your skeletal cage. Its quite a easy task and nothing to be affraid of. You ready? Yes? Then lie down on the bed.’ replied Tomix.

I did as he asked. First he casted a spell upon me so that I would fall asleep, in a deep sleep. Then I feel how my lifeforce, spirit or soul releases itself from my body.

‘Fase one.Attaching the orb to the heart of the lifeforce from Danitia.’ He pushed he orb onto my chest and I felt how a burst of chaos energy took over my lifeforce, making me feel stronger and powerfull than ever. Then once the lifeforce was absorbed by the chaotic darkness orb, the orb automatically took its place upon the heart of my lifeforce. Then, I could Tomix hear saying ‘Now, its time to push the lifeforce back into her undead body’ which I also fell. I opened my eyes.

‘Welcome back Danitia.How do you feel?’ asked Tomix.
‘Very fine. I feel like I can blow up Lore with a single energy ball into the ground’ I replied.
‘This is only the beginning, be warned. Make sure you keep your diary up to date.Soon you will stop eating, drinking and even sleeping. You won’t be needing that anymore since this little... cosmetic surgery.’ said Tomix. ‘I suppose that Lady Gravelyn will keep an eye on you in the next couple of weeks, and take care of you.’ he continued.
‘Danitia let me live while she could’ve killed me. I am now convinced she took over the throne for a good purpose, so I believe her still because I trust her. I will do anything in my might to give her all the care she needs.’ replied Gravelyn.
‘Very well. I must depart now. If you need me, send a messenger again and I will come as soon as possible.’ said Tomix.

Then he vanished as well. I decided to make Gravelyn my apprentice, as I didn’t want her dead or anything, I just wanted to prepare her for the real work. Meanwhile, my position as the Queen of the Shadowscythe was saved, and Gravelyn found peace with the fact that I would be the interim Queen of the Shadowscythe for now. I was happy that my ‘coup’ succeeded like this. Until suddenly... we heard a horn in the distance. On which a messenger approached us.

‘Your highness, Empress, his royal Majesty King Alteon is on his way!’ spoke the messenger.
‘Let him pass.’ I replied.

Then the escort arrived near the gate of Shadowfall and King Alteon came inside, to the throneroom.

‘Again, you cease to amaze me, Hero. You have overcome many things for both sides of the truce, and now you even took over the Shadowscythe to show the young empress Gravelyn on how to rule things in the future. I find this a very noble deed.’ he spoke.
‘At first, I thought Danitia wanted to take control just for herself, but now that she has told me she wants to teach me things instead, I am okay with it.’ replied Gravelyn.
‘In this hard time, you can use the help, my child. Losing your father is not easy.’ said King Alteon.
‘I am confident now that Danitia will show me the ins and outs of ruling the Shadowscythe Empire’ smiled Gravelyn.
‘I have a better idea, Gravelyn. I will adopt you as my daughter. I will teach you everything, rule the Shadowscythe for you till you reach the age that you can rule it yourself. Meaning I would become your mother, whom you have never had’ I spoke, kind of sentimental.
‘Awwww that is so sweet,and yes, I would accept you as my mother, Danitia.’ replied Gravelyn.
‘Thats good. I will entrust you with the throne again, Princess Gravelyn. Don’t do anything without me knowing it, and when taking decisions, send a messenger to my house!’ I spoke firmly.
‘I will, mother.’ replied Gravelyn.
‘King Alteon, it was my pleasure to meet you. I’m sure Gravelyn will provide you with further assistance’ I spoke to him.
‘The pleasure was all mine, Queen Danitia.' said Alteon with a brief smile.

Then I stood up, and headed outside the Dracolich, back towards my house. I still had a lot of studying to do, whereunder how to revive the Dracolich. I assumed giving a lifeforce to the skeleton would make it assemble itself, or at least recover itself. I looked out of the window of my house, where I saw Shadowfall in the distance. I then lit the candles and got the book on Necromancy again. While reading, I skipped a few pages until I found something interesting on reviving other things than humans or human-like skeletal cages.

‘Reviving a skeletal cage requires a lot of dark energy in order to create and maintain a lifeforce powerfull enough to assemble large skeletal cages. Such power requires the necromancer to be well rested and very stable in the use of his or her magic. Depending on what matter you wish to revive the skeletal cage, the balance can differ a lot from something small to a rather large object. If you are creating a lich for instance, you give away your magic just once to the receiver, or in this case, the skeletal cage you are trying to resurrect. In order to do this, you need to make sure you have eough energy of your own. You can compare this to losing a lot of blood and your body needs to regenerate your blood once your wounds are healed. However, when you enslave the receiver, you can withdraw your energy systematically. I will make a example. Lord Sepulchure had done the impossible with reviving one of Lore’s biggest dragons. This dragon was enslaved to the necromancer whom built it, thus it required one necromancer to maintain it, in this case, Lord Sepulchure himself, assisted with a few mages of his undead legion to increase the magic strength.’


I headed into the woods for a little, fighting random creatures of Doomwood, as it was still early and I had plans for gardening around my house, and I planned to teleport my tower of necromancy near my other house, meaning I had a lot of clearing to do before I could actually move the tower. And, my magical energy had to be strong enough to do it. Then the evening fell, a quiet and peacefull moment to do the teleportation.

‘For the heck of it, they did it with battleon, so this tower is a lot lighter’ I smirked.

I casted the spell and saw my tower disappear in the distance and saw it appear closer to me... not without a shock, but it worked.

I then went inside my second house to get my belongings to return them to the tower. With a little touch of magic I managed to decorate my house fast and effective. I lit the candles as the evening fell and sat down behind my desk to write in my diary.

‘Day 5. Dear diary, today is the fifth day of me using Chaos magic. I have united myself with the chaorupted Darkness orb in order to become what Lord Sepulchure once was. I succeeded to implement the orb into my lifeforce. Currently, i’m not a human anymore, but a elemental, a life force in a skeletal cage. The operation on Shadowfall was a success too. The truce between King Alteon and Gravelyn is still standing, while I, being interim ruler of the Shadowscythe, make sure that the Empire gets what it deserves. Reviving the dracolich is still on the program. I also moved my tower closer to Shadowfall so that I can look over it from the top of my tower, out of my bedroom window. It seemed peacefull and dimly lit. There was still a lot of work to be done, but what I had accomplished so far was satisfying. Tomorrow, I will practice in the Vasalkal Lair in order to be able to shape my chaos magic even better, and with more powerfull attacks. Danitia out for now.’


Then I stood up and walked to my newly purchased smoothie bar, where I drank a few smoothies and headed into my bed. I was thinking about reading some more on necromancy, but I fell asleep instead. The next morning I woke up early.

‘It is time... to show Lore the true power of Chaos!’ I muttered.
Was I dreaming? still asleep? or did I just actually say that? I stood up from the bed, and then a messenger came to me.

‘Dearest Danitia, We have been having some trouble with the traitorous Dragonlord Vath, I want you to hunt him down and defeat him once and for all. As a proof, I require you to show me his armor, which you can keep afterwards. Normally, I would deal with this matter myself, but I am busy with Swordhaven on this very moment. I do trust on you that you find him this afternoon, and by tonight I will meet you in your tower. Sincerely, Drakath.’ read the scroll that the messenger gave me.

I then stood up, took my Chaos Warrior armor from my closet and put it on. Spreading my wings while I flew out of the window from my house for the first time. I flew to the dwarfhold mountains. On the mountain top, Vath was already waiting.

‘You.... you... puff puff pant pant’ I started to mutter.
‘You want me to let you catch your breath before I destroy you?’ asked Vath with the same arrogance he had.
‘That would be great. I am a fellow Chaos Lord, Vath. Why destroy me?’ I asked while my breath returned.
‘I know Drakath sent you because I betrayed his trust... at least he claims that.’ replied Vath.

Then Drakath landed on the mountain top too. He stood there, not saying anything or doing anything until he closed his wings.

‘I’ve had enough of you. Danitia, destroy this fool’ spoke Drakath while he prepared a ball of chaos energy.
‘My pleasure, Drakath’ I spoke while I charged a attack on him.
‘Not to inconvenient you, but are you sure? Even against me you don’t stand a chance, let alone together with Stalagbite?’ said Vath, looking at me with a arrogant look.
‘I’ll destroy Stalagbite right now.’ spoke Drakath while he tossed the ball at Stalagbite with a explosion that followed. Stalagbite was gone.

Then I jumped at Vath hitting him down with my blade and started to unleash all possible chaos magic on him that I posessed, draining him down to the core. I kept hitting and charging until Vath vanished out of the armor. He was gone.

‘I have the armor, Drakath’ I spoke.
‘Excellent, good job, apprentice.’ smiled Drakath while he looked at the armor.
‘Keep it as souvenir’ he continued.
‘I will’ I replied and I picked up the armor and headed back to my house. Drakath followed me.
Once we arrived at my tower, I tossed the armor onto the coat rack once we flew inside.

‘I’m surprised that the coat rack holds’ said Drakath.
‘You should know what has hung on it before’ I smirked.

Then my new pet Gruaig Baas walked in, causing Drakath to look surprised.

‘Good work, apprentice! You already took care of Khasaandra too, that was my next assignment.’ said Drakath.
‘Yes, I guessed that, so I went down there and defeated her for you already’ I replied.

Then I sat down near my writers desk, as the evening started to fall already. Drakath left my house upon that too after he said goodnight. I lit the candles and walked outside onto the balcony. I looked over the forest, tomorrow would be a new day at Shadowfall for me.

‘Day 6. Dear diary. Today was a very good day to test my power and to achieve a greater goal which I still need to set for myself. As a Chaos Shaper, I should become notoriously selfish, but with a purpose to aid my apprentice in a good way. I want to adopt more apprentices and teach them to sniff the power of Chaos. For the factions evil and good, they became one faction: Order. This would be the only name to call the truce between good and evil, and with the two factions not clahening, a certain order was brought to Lore opposing us as Chaos. I’m preparing to head to Shadowfall tomorrow and see what my adopted daughter Gravelyn is doing. I still have a lot of work to do there, and to reanimate the dracolich is a job onto itself. For now, I will res and read further in the Book of Necromancy. Danitia out.’

After writing that down I went to my bed with the book and started to read more of it. The more I learned, how easier Necromancy actually seemed.

‘A subject who is reanimated is irrevocably connected to the Darkness Realm.
Take care in reanimating a magician. They can manipulate that connection to a much greater degree than a
normal necromancer.

Undead Magician's are more sensitive to Dark Forces and the evil of their minions
and subjects is enhanced.

Therefore, I'd recommend the necromancer to play safe and reanimate subjects they can surely control. Bringing back a magical being can be done, in that case I'd recommend to reanimate a moglin, whom are also magical. They employ healing magic, but their wisdom grows beyond!’

After reading this small chapter, I stood up from my bed, looked at the coat rack. Vath’s armor was still hanging on it flashing with lightning of the chaos energy running through it. I then went outside to a place where dead moglins were buried. I reanimated one...a magician by coinsidence. I allowed it to talk and do things that undead normally couldn’t do. It was late in the night, I heard werewolves crying through the forest near Darkovia. It was dangerous, so I headed back to my home instantly, making the undead moglin follow me. Once we arrived there, I gave him a book on Magic, and instructed him to learn everything from the book while I slept. The next morning I woke up.

‘Good morning, Mistress of Darkness’ spoke the Undead Moglin.
‘Good morning, Mr.Magic’ I replied, naming the moglin Mr. Magic.
‘I have learned everything from the book, I can now tunnel my healing magic to any kind of magic’ said Mr.Magic
‘Hahahaha very good, my little Mr.Magic’ I replied. ‘What else can you do?’ I asked.
‘I am open for Necromancy, just like Zorbak and Kabroz’ replied Mr.Magic.
‘That’s good, I will let you read the book on Necromancy tonight’ I replied. Then I stood up from my bed.

It was time to head to Shadowfall. Rising myself in the finest clothes, I headed out to the fortress, where Gravelyn seemed to await me.

‘Good morning, Danitia’ she said, looking at me a bit anxious.

‘Good morning, my daughter. How are things here?’ I asked.
‘Same as they ever were, just holding the truce up, which withholds us from doing anything’ replied Gravelyn.
‘I’m currently training a moglin magician...we might be able to reanimate the dracolich soon’ I spoke.
‘Don’t you have the feeling we have to do something, Danitia?’ she asked me.
‘The truce is causing us to shape one faction: Order. We cannot change that right now’ I replied.
‘We can however, make plans for the future of Shadowfall and with that, the Empire when you are ready to rule it’ I continued.
‘That sounds like a good plan, mother. But what future?’ asked Gravelyn.
‘One day, the truce will be able, when our enemy is defeated. Then the truce is supposed to be disbanded and every hero in King Alteon’s army should be turned undead. What do you think?’ I spoke.
‘Good plan, Danitia. You happen to be a Necromancer? no?’ asked Gravelyn.
‘Yes I am, but I am more into Chaos now... so I’m a chaotic Necromancer’ I replied.
‘Wait... what? You serve Chaos?’ replied Gravelyn shocked.
‘I want to employ it to my own, Gravelyn. Not to harm anyone with it but Chaos itself’ I replied.
‘Phew... you had me worried there.’ she replied.
‘Well, no need to!’ I replied, while a burst of Chaos energy ran through my veins.
‘Sorry Gravelyn, its the energy running through my veins... i’d better go’ I continued.

I headed out of shadowfall back to my home, where my undead moglin, Mr.Magic studied the book of Necromancy. He looked at me, and knew I wasn’t there for a conversation. I went back to bed and fell asleep almost at once. Later that day, I woke up again, feeling a bit more calm then I was before. I decided to stay home with Mr.Magic.

‘Mr. Magic... what did we learn today?’ I spoke with a smile.
‘I’ve read the entire book, I can now tunnel my healing magic to dark magic, and with that necromancy’ replied the little moglin, satisfying me and making me confident.
‘Very good, Mr.Magic. I’m impressed’ I replied. He gave me a demonstration with reanimating a undead skeleton, and had it attack a random monster in the forest whilst we watched through the window. I smiled.
‘Quietly brilliant’ I continued.

My training of the undead moglin was complete. There was nothing more I could do for him than pronounce him Necromancer!

‘Does this mean I am just as powerfull as Zorbak?’ asked Mr.Magic.
‘Yes, yes you are, Mr.Magic.’ I replied.
‘Thats very good’ he smiled.
‘Especially for a undead moglin....’ I replied.

Then I took him outside for a walk. Where he showed me many things. Whereunder his undead paladin.

‘Wow, when did you reanimate him?’ I asked.
‘When you were at shadowfall, Madame.’ replied Mr.Magic. ‘He is my favorite minion, and I feel well protected’ he continued.
‘Sure thing! But is it darkness or light based?’ I asked.
‘Is that a trick question? it can do both, depending on which attack I want it to do...’ replied Mr.Magic with a smile.
‘Observe...’ he continued while he instructed the undead paladin to attack a tree. I saw it do a light attack with his weapon and darkness attack with magic. ‘Which I call the element of surprise.’ continued Mr.Magic.

The undead paladin wandered with us and fought random creatures such as zards and other forest beings. I was satisfied with seeing this undead creation, especially the undead paladin. Only a necromancer on wizard level
could figure such a thing out. The shiny armor from the paladin and the nice axe he was wielding, told me the paladin was a first officer in the paladin order.

Chapter 3: Danitia’s School on Necromancy!

‘Mr.Magic, just how were you able to reanimate the undead paladin?’ I asked.
‘My healing magic is based upon ‘good’ magic. This is why I can reanimate things that are aligned that way’ replied Mr.Magic.
‘Obvious....’ I smirked.
‘Not really. Being undead, my magic should be tunneled to dark magic automatically, but it doesn’t’ said Mr.Magic.
‘I’m thinking, Mr.Magic. To lay down the aid of Chaos for now, and teach students Necromancy. Will you join me?’ I asked.
‘Oh yes! I could teach living moglins on how to tunnel their healing magic! That would be great!’ replied Mr.Magic.

The evening fell and I lit the candles of my tower. Downstairs, I had decorated a classroom with books, empty tables as working desks and a pile of skulls for the teacher stand. Mr.Magic would educate students and I would, so we would switch spots each class. Mr.Magic had a messenger send out the message about our school of Neromancy for Moglins, but also the message had reached the Lightguard Keep.

Meanwhile at the lightguard keep....
‘So, Danitia... a shaper of Chaos has opened her own school of Necromancy.... the traitor!’ said a voice known as Vayle.
‘Yessss’ replied the messenger.
‘It was my idea to open up the Necromancer University again, except Sally was ahead of me!’ said Vayle.
‘I know. I have heard that rumor too, Vayle’ said the messenger.
‘Why do people only want to use me? it isn’t fair’ said Vayle...

Back at the tower of Necromancy...

‘Well done, Mr.Magic. The message is spread out, and the first moglin students are already outside!’ I said.
‘Very good, I will start educating them’ replied Mr.Magic, after he dressed up like a Professor from NecroU.

Upon that, we walked downstairs and I saw six moglins with red eyes. On each table were three of them. Mr.Magic walked into the middle near the pile of skulls.

‘Good day class. Today I want to start out with the subject of tunneling our healing magic to dark magic which is the basic key for Necromancy. Once we control this, we can start with the basics of Necromancy.’ started Mr.Magic.
‘Our healing magic extends the excisting lifeforce of a subject we intend to heal. Once, we can turn this lifeforce into darkness, we can create a lifeforce of its own, meaning we have the basic key for necromancy: employing lifeforce into a cage. Class, I want you to practice the tunneling onto this pile of skulls over here and see if you can reanimate at least one of the skulls.’ continued Mr.Magic.

The class started to practice and all six had a ‘living’ skull on their desk in front of them.
‘Very impressive, class. Now can you tunnel the dark magic, back to light magic and make the skull perform a random deed of light?’ said Mr.Magic

The class started to practice again and two of them managed to have their skull pick a book from the bookcase with light based magic. I found it very impressive myself too.
‘I’m amazed! I’m proud of you for today, class. You may now release the skulls of their lifeforce and withdraw the energy back to yourself.’ said Mr.Magic.
The class did as he asked, then our artificial bell rang.
The next hour it would be my class but I didn’t have anything to teach them just yet, so I dismissed the class on the start. The students were free for today. I went upstairs to my chambers, lit the lamp and candles and sat behind my writers desk.

‘Day 7 and 8. Dear Diary, I forgot to write you last night, so I am catching up now. The training of Mr.Magic is complete and we have opened our school of Necromancy. I am planning to release my chaos magic and return to my true call: Necromancy. I decided to pick up my studies too, as Mr.Magic could teach me things I didn’t know before, such as tunneling magic into light based magic, or even healing magic. Even though I had been a healer before, and I possessed healing magic, I still wouldn’t know how to tunnel magic, but Mr.Magic could teach me, unless it was a moglin only thing. For now, I am very tied an I need rest. Danitia out.’

And after writing that down, I went to bed, and slept almost at once. The next morning I felt good and very calm. Mr.Magic was already downstairs and outside near the tent, which we put there for the students. I also went outside to Mr.Magic.

'Good morning, Mr.Magic and students! How are we this day’ I asked.
'Very good, Prof. Waiting for your lesson to start!’ said one of the moglin students.
'Ahhh I have the first hour?’ I smiled.
'Yes, madam.’ said Mr.Magic whilst he walked around the tower.
'Very well, I will go freshen up and then the lesson can begin, students... go to your table and reanimate your skull!’ I spoke. The students went inside, so did I but I went upstairs to my private chamber to freshen up. Then I walked downstairs and let our artificial bell ring.

'Good morning class. Today we will learn the essence of ghouls. So it will be a theory lesson, not a practice. Practice lessons are given by Prof.Magic. Are you ready?’ I spoke.
‘Yes, prof. We have our skulls ready and we are listening’ spoke the class almost equal.
‘Good, then we can begin. Before we can monetize our product - ghouls - we must understand their nature. This is vital if you plan to construct - then market - them to eager buyers. If you ask whom would buy ghouls, ghouls serve many uses. But here comes the interesting part, on how I constructed Professor Magic, a subject who has been reanimated is irrevocably connected to the darkness realm. Take care in reanimating a magician. They can manipulate that connection to a much greater degree than a normal necromancer. They are more sensitive to Dark forces - except for Professor Magic - and the evil of their minions and subjects is more enhanced. More on this later, class. Any questions?’ I explained.
‘Yes, prof. How was Professor Magic reanimated then?’ asked a student.
‘He was reanimated by me, he only possessed healing magic like all moglins, but he learned to tunnel it into dark magic and even light magic. His subject, or minion, the Undead Paladin is a example of light and darkness bound together into a single subject.’ I replied.
‘Professor Magic himself, is he a lich?’ asked another student.
‘No, it is harsh to say, but Professor Magic is still a ‘minion’ from me. Meaning I still control him, but I am letting him free to do as he pleases, except when it is a moral danger to me.’ I replied.
‘Professor? If we reanimate the skull, like we just did, can we assign body parts to it too?’ asked another student.
‘That chapter is Professor Magic going to teach you today. You have supplied the skull with a lifeforce, now assign a body to it with the same lifeforce. so likely he will take you out to the cemetary or the forest.’ I replied.
‘Ahem. That would be the graveyard, where I am taking them today, madame.’ said Prof.Magic.
‘Okay, the graveyard then. It is only 2 hours from here walking, class. Thus... Dismissed.’ I spoke whilst I let the artificial bell ring.
‘Okay class. Before we go on our excursion, we will first learn how to tunnel dark magic to light magic, in order to reanimate a undead paladin for instance. Even though we borrowed six skulls from this pile here, we can still assign them to a paladin and imbue them with the power of light!’ spoke Prof.Magic.
‘And how do we do that?’ asked a student.
‘We are moglins, our healing magic is neutral by default, so we can tunnel it to any kind of magic we like’ replied Prof.Magic.
‘Okay class, lets take our skull, we go to the graveyard!’ said Prof.Magic and they wandered off through the exit of my house.

Upon that, I went down to Shadowfall, because I knew Prof.Magic and his class were doing a double hour, so I had time to check on Gravelyn and tell her about our school, maybe she would even contribute about her father and how he was connected to the Darkness realm, but I was certain that Gravelyn would’t know, so I decided not to ask either.

‘Good morning, Gravelyn. How are things going here?’ I asked while entering the throne room.
‘Same as they ever were, and no plans, Danitia.’ replied Gravelyn.
‘Rumors go that the hero’s of Battleon may soon strike against Drakath. I do not know how many chaos lords Drakath has left, but I will soon find out. We can use that opportunity to strike against the good forces’ I replied.
‘Maybe so, but meanwhile you have a distraction. I wander around this fortress whole days’ replied Gravelyn.
‘We need to be patient, my dear.’ I replied. ‘Our opportunity will soon come.’ I continued.

Upon that I went back to my house, the school where Prof.Magic and his class had returned in the meantime. Soon he would hand the class over to me again, and I saw they had assigned a skeleton to the skulls and put back six new skulls upon the pile. I went upstairs to refreshen myself and put on my teachers robes, but I used my duchess dress instead.

‘Okay Class. Welcome back.’ I smiled while the bell rang. The students sat down behind their table quickly, showing their creations.
‘Okay class. I see that Prof.Magic has helped you finding a body for your reanimated skulls, you did a good job, but I don’t see any undead paladins.’ I smiled.
‘There weren’t any, Professor.’ replied a student.
‘Not a total disaster. Today, I want to discuss elementizing our subject. As we can tunnel our magic towards various elements, we can give our subject a element by default, such as light, darkness, fire, wind, water, ice and so on.’ I spoke. ‘Our subject will use that element by default to attack anything you please it to attack’ I continued.
‘Professor... we gave our subject the darkness element by default, but we can withdraw that lifeforce and imbue it with a different kind then?’ asked the students.
‘Thats exactly what I meant’ I smiled.
‘Thus class, withdraw the lifeforce from your subjects!’ I continued, and saw how the class did as I asked. The skeletal cages dropped into eachother like a big pile of bones.
‘Well done, now reanimate your subject with a element each, I want to see Light from you, ice from you, fire from you, wind from you, water from you and last ice from you’ I spoke pointing at everyone. They started to work on the project and in about ten minutes later I saw six elementized skeletons, within the range I mentioned.
‘Well done class. That is it for today. Tomorrow we will discuss the essence of undead life and Prof.Magic will take you out for a practice.’ I smiled. ‘As for the student with the light based minion, try finding a paladin armor for it... you have the basis right there...’ I said and winked.
‘Not neccesarily...’ said Prof.Magic. ‘Seeing that paladins aren’t neccesarily elementized by light magic’ he continued. ‘Class, can you name me one paladin, whom isn’t elementized with light magic?’ continued Prof.Magic.
‘Artix!’ replied a student.
‘Excellent choice, can you tell me what he is elementized with then?’ replied Prof.Magic
‘I believe he is elementized with darkness, tunneling that to light’ replied the student.
‘See, madame?’ said Prof.Magic
‘Even I should get scholar robes and attend your class, Prof.Magic’ I smiled.
‘You may, next class is in the next hour! Be there!’ said Prof.Magic.

Time passed and the second class attended. I sat down beside the moglin table.

‘Good day, Class. Now that we have learned how to elementize our subject, we must now learn the basics to make a minion attack in battle. Since our common foe is still Chaos, we need to gather all our forces and gather strength against that foe. Now it is time to learn the basics of supplying a subject with basic intelligence and wisdom. This way, we allow our minion to think for him/hersef. Supplying a minion with basic intellect means we still keep the subject under our control, otherwise he/she might be able to rise against us, and we don’t want that, now do we, Class?’ spoke Prof.Magic.
‘Who can name a example of a minion whom is able to think for himself?’ he continued.
‘I know one. Vordred?’ I replied.
‘Thats a very good example as a product of the Necromancer University!’ replied Prof.Magic, but he suddenly went silent, as if he remembered something.
‘Professor?’ said a student.
‘Ahem. Yes. I am here. I just remembered I worked at the Necromancer University when I was alive...’ replied Prof.Magic.
‘As I was saying.... Vordred. A perfect example of a minion that has a mind on its own!’ he continued.
‘To reanimate Vordred, multiple necromancers were required to perform a task each. The supreme Necromantress, Sally, brought back a lich to reanimate Vordred, as she couldn’t do it on her own. Who can name the Lich... who was the supreme necromancer of NecroU before Sally?’ continued Prof.Magic.
‘I believe his name was Noxus, a necromancer gone very bad in his own evil. He worked for Sepulchure and he created the whole Shadowscythe army, except for one minion named Chuckles, whom was Sepulchure his companion everywhere he went. Chuckles was created by Gravelyn, Sepulchure his daughter, and Sepulchure was very proud on that creation’ replied a student.
‘Excellent answer!’ said Prof.Magic.
‘Now. To supply our subject with basic intellect. In order to do this, we must first draw a lifeforce that can contain information on its own, and retrieve information from external factors, next to the necromancer whom reanimated the subject. We have already created a mindless minion and we elementized it. I will show you a minion of mine.’ continued Prof.Magic and he summoned his undead paladin.
‘This paladin, is brought back from death by me near the Lightguard Keep. Since paladins are fighters of good, and only fight for good, it is imbued with with element of light. But it also required me to supply him with basic intellect, otherwise I couldn’t reanimate him. Can somebody tell me why?’ continued Prof.Magic while he pointed at his creation.
‘Wizards and magicians, even undead, are irrevocably connected to the darkness realm, and they are connected to it more closer than a normal necromancer. Paladins are also magical, thus therefor the undead paladin had to have a basic mind of its own in order to function properly and to employ healing magic, which they also control’ I replied.
‘Very good, Madame.’ said Prof.Magic.
‘Now we know why minions may need basic intellect and wisdom at times. We can easily extend the lifeforce of our minion with room to contain wisdom and intellect. By tomorrow, Class. I expect for homework, 10 reasons to supply a minion with wisdom and intellect, and remember it can be found in the books if you study hard enough.’ continued Prof.Magic. ‘Thats all for today, Class. This afternoon I will take you to the graveyard again’ said Prof.Magic. Then our artificial bell rang, and the class was dismissed till noon. The moglins went outside into the tent and waited there while studying. Meanwhile, me and Prof.Magic went upstairs to the balcony.

‘I think our school is going very well, don’t you think, Prof.Magic?’ I asked.
‘It is going extremely well, and we have good students.’ replied Prof.Magic.
‘Soon enough, our school will make name in Lore, and we can send our students to NecroU’ I smiled.
‘Our facility is better than NecroU, Madame.’ said Prof.Magic.
‘Is it? We lack teachers, Prof.’ I replied.
‘Maybe so, but you and I have both enough knowledge on every detail of Necromancy, we don’t need more teachers’ said Prof.Magic.
‘What will you do on the Graveyard this afternoon?’ I asked.
‘I will let them collect essences of Jack Sprat, in order to study larger minions such as skeletal vikings, etc.’ replied Prof.Magic. ‘Since they have a minion on their own, they should know how to extend it’ he continued.
‘That is very true, but I’m still impressed by your undead paladin’ I smirked. ‘How did you do it?’ I continued.
‘Tunneling both light and darkness into one.’ replied Prof.Magic. And then the afternoon came. We let our artificial bell ring again.
‘Okay class, are you ready for the cemetary today?’ said Prof.Magic.
‘Yes, yes we are, Professor!’ replied the group.
‘Very well, lets go!’ said Prof.Magic and they wandered off into the woods to the graveyard.

Chapter 3.1: The Invasion of Willow Creek.
I went back upstairs to my private chambers where I sat down on the balcony watching over Doomwood forest. It was time to do something different. With our school of necromancy, we were able to create a undead army as large as Gravelyn her own army. Carefully I considered my options to have this done. Prof.Magic had enough wisdom and intellect to create such a army, and of course, I myself could do a lot with that too. I knew that I still had plenty of time during my command over the Shadowscythe, but I wanted something on my own. The afternoon passed and the evening fell. Prof.Magic returned after dismissing his class and he came up to me at the balcony. I took a decision.


‘Prof.Magic?’ I asked.
‘Yes, madame?’ he replied.
‘Get us a raspberry smoothie, would you.’ I smiled.
‘I will get you one, I cannot drink or eat, remember?’ replied Prof.Magic. He walked inside towards the bar and returned with a mug containing a raspberry smoothie.
‘I forgot about that, Prof.Magic. My apologies. However, we’re going to invade Willow Creek with a undead army’ I spoke to him.
‘We are what?’ asked Prof.Magic
‘I’m planning a invasion on Willow Creek. The town has like... five buildings? maybe four. We need to take the church in order for us to take over the control there. What would you say? they are nearly defenseless, all we need is your undead paladin, and a few minions of mine.’ I smiled.
‘Its a great idea, but what goal do we serve with it?’ asked Prof.Magic.
‘I just want to know what it feels like to control my own town’ I replied. ‘And we prevent Chaos from striking there’ I continued.
‘So that serves a good goal then. As long as the purpose is good, I am in.’ said Prof.Magic.
‘Yes, there is a good purpose behind it.’ I replied with a sinister smile.

Then we stood up, went downstairs, outside of the tower, into the garden for a bit. Nearby I knew there were enough skeletal parts from slain doomwood soldiers and other skeletal minions, which we could use to reanimate a small undead army consistent of one hundred skeletal soldiers. Me and Prof.Magic started to work on it, most of them were imbued with darkness in order to create the army fast and efficient. Once we were done, we were looking at a army of one hundred skeletal minions, whereunder soldiers and ectomancers.

‘We’re done.’ I smiled, while the evening was closing in further and the sky started to turn darker.
‘Yes. Do we leave them here, waiting until tomorrow?’ asked Prof.Magic.
‘That would be a good idea, unless some heroes come to slay them...’ I replied.

I now had to figure a place where I could hide the troops. I remembered my necromancer tower had a basement chamber, which was quite large, large enough to hide the troops so we made them walk into the tower, into the basement.

‘Lets hide them there for now’ I replied while me and Prof.Magic went back upstairs after the last soldier went down into the basement. ‘Tomorrow we will march for Willow Creek’ I continued. I went upstairs after that.
I sat down behind my writers desk and opened my diary.

'Day 9. Dear Diary. I have my forces ready to invade Willow Creek by down. The power in my veins hungers for more, and I need to study a new subject, knowing the study of tunneling raw mana into damage, or any kind of magic I want. Then I can cast every spell I know to become a Lich. Once I become a lich, I am unstoppable! Danitia Out for now.’

I jumped upon my bed and went to sleep at once. In the middle of the night, I woke up. After I lit my lamp and candles, I went downstairs to get a different book, called Archmage Research, a book about tunneling raw mana into damage, suitable for me to become a lich. Once I started reading, I knew this night was the night to do it. I prepared more candles, and summoned my undead mages, including Prof.Magic. I circled them around me and told them which spell to cast each. If the circle would complete correct, I’d die... but return from Death.

'Ready?’ I asked.
'Yes, Danitia. Are you sure? If this goes wrong, you won’t return.’ replied Prof.Magic.
'It won’t go wrong.’ I replied.

Then I went upstairs and put on my black robes, together with my black hood. And then I went down again to stand in the middle of the circle. 'Commence!’ I said, and the undead minions started casting their spells, each on their turn. I fell down onto the floor and my lifeforce, including that of the chaotic darkness orb, was released. I died.

'Well well... had a little accident, have we?’ said a voice. It was the reaper.
'Yes...Yes I have.’ I replied.
'I have no use for you right now, so I will let you return as a Lich!’ smiled the reaper.
'Thanks... I guess.’ I replied, and I returned into my body.

After waking up, I noticed I didn’t breathe anymore, nor that I had feelings of hunger or thirst. I went upstairs and looked into the mirror. I saw a pale white face with black eyes. I was truly undead now, I achieved my goal.
I went back downstairs.

'Madame, are you alright?’ asked Prof.Magic
'I’ve never felt better, Prof.Magic. I’m a lich now.’ I smiled. 'Now to continue my study... Archmage Research’ I continued.

I went back upstairs, I didn’t need sleep anymore either. I picked up the book from the archmage research and started reading... ‘This subject is about the ancient archmage research, a power possessed by mages all around Lore to manipulate mana to do as they please. This power is so great, however it cause damage to the caster when the mana is shaped to do high damage to a subject. On Lore, this magic isn’t elementized and often referred to as Void magic. Archmages can do various things with their mana, once they can manipulate it in order to dissipate or shape it, but also summon a mana elemental, turn that into a golem or even beyond. Mana energy is free magic, which can be used and elementized, but the raw magic is much more efficient according to the ancient tomes and books that were written, also this book. To become a archmage, you should possess enough wisdom to maintain mana energy and be able to manipulate it. Manipulating mana is basically the same as casting a elementized spell, except you don’t elementize it. Once the mage can shape mana, he or she becomes quite deadly.’
‘Very interesting... what does this do for a lich?’ I muttered.I looked out of the window and saw how dawn was emerging at the horizon. The birds were waking up, and I could enjoy nothing more than their orchestra in the morning. Also I had another satisfied smile. It was time to let the troops out and march for Willow Creek. I took out a special sword, which was a present to me from the General of the Abyss. This sword withheld much power, and I knew how to treat it with care. I imbued it with magic so that it would float after me where ever I would go, and it would strike down enemies for me. This was useful, especially now that I was a lich and had nothing to do anymore, but to tunnel magic into action, and eventually elementize it. I went downstairs to open the basement doors and summoned the undead forces to move out.

‘Its time, Prof.Magic.’ I smiled.
‘I am ready for battle, Madame.’ replied Prof.Magic.

The troops marched out, one by one and then they shaped blocks just like the Romans did in the past. I then gestured the army to move forward... and we started walking. After a few hours, in the early morning we arrived at Willow Creek. The undead army started slaying the monsters and other beings defending the town. Meanwhile, me, my sword and Prof.Magic went into the church. First, we ensured that our undead army had captured the local farmers, westin, northup, southwick and eastman. This happened, other soldiers were standing guard outside after defeating some frogdrakes and mosquito’s. Another 50 soldiers walked down to the caves to capture the dwakel that were hiding there and a few went into the forest, where the werewolf was captured. Then I walked inside the church, where the Church Elder seemed to be awaiting me.

‘Who dares.... to invade the peaceful town of Willow Creek!?’ she asked.
‘It is I, Danitia. Immortal Lich! Interim ruler of the Shadowscythe Empire!’ I replied.
‘Now, Willow Creek is under my control! Hand me the Church keys and all your belongings, priestess!’ I continued.
‘Sigh,’ muttered the priestess and she gave me everything I requested. ‘Minions! Seize her!’ I shouted and the skeletal soldiers moved the priestess to the seperate room which was intended to become a dungeon. The farmers were there too. I casted a spell to shape raw mana into a changing effect and created a dungeon cell from the room beneath the church. Then I sat down on the priestess her chair. I picked the Shadowscythe amulet from my robes and started to think about it. I suddenly remembered what I could do with it...

‘Hahahahahahahahaha’ I started to laugh. ‘I forgot I have the champion of darkness right here...’.
‘Madame... what will we do next?’ asked Prof.Magic.
‘Nothing, we wait for now. We enjoy the town of Willow Creek, and our undead soldiers will replace the farmers so that the town will continue to thrive. Nobody would notice the difference.’ I smiled.
‘This worked out the way we intended, did it not, Madame?’ said Prof.Magic.
‘Yes, now we need to create a undead commander whom takes this throne and makes sure that Willow Creek stays in our hands. Otherwise, the heroes of BattleOn may come to slay all.’ I replied.
‘I will return to the tower, to our students’ replied Prof.Magic.
‘Wait, we have to create the commander first.’ I smiled.

We started casting spells upon a undead soldier whom was nearby and provided him with wisdom and intellect to command the undead army here. After we did that, I gave approval, we had created our first ‘skelecommander’, a strong looking undead soldier with a massive blade and shield and capable of taking decisions on its own.

‘Our work is done, Prof.Magic. Now lets see what happens.’ I smiled while we walked off into the forest towards our school on Necromancy. A few hours later, we arrived there, and the moglin students were already waiting in the tent for the lesson to begin. We walked inside, where I saw.... Zorbak.

‘Zorbak!? What are you doing here! On my pile of skulls!?’ I asked.
‘Mehehehehehehe’ replied Zorbak. ‘This is my skull throne for now, see I have Vordred his head!’ he continued.
‘Yes, but what are you doing here?’ I asked.
‘I wanted to teach these kids Necromancy.... Prof.Magic invited me. I have to say I am impressed, Lich.’ replied Zorbak.
‘Ohhhh ok.’ I replied
‘And why am I as fellow Necromancer not welcome in this education institution?’ asked Zorbak.
‘Oh don’t get me wrong, you are. I just didn’t expect it.’ I replied.
‘Good. Where is the class?’ asked Zorbak, on which I let our artificial schoolbel ring.

The class entered and sat down behind their tables together with their undead minions.

‘Meheheheheh hello class. Who am I?’ laughed Zorbak.
‘You are Zorbak! One of Lore’s greatest necromancers, and a expelled student from NecroU’ replied the class simultaneously.
‘I am well...impressed!’ replied Zorbak. ‘Today, we learn about the essence of unlife and the way to manipulate it into a greater form, other than you already did. I heard this institution is getting very good credit on the teachings that are served here, and I wanted to contribute a part of my knowledge to it too. Now, for creating a basic essence of unlife, we create a single mana orb, of pure unshaped mana. Can anyone tell me how you do that?’ continued Zorbak.
‘Actually, no sir. No idea. We haven’t studied the mana chapters yet.’ replied a student.
‘Okay, here are a few books, read the basics of mana for me, class and I will wait for you to finish.’ replied Zorbak,

The class started to read the small book issued to them by Zorbak and the time passed for about 20 minutes when the first student raised his hand.

‘Yes? you?’ said Zorbak
‘But... how do you actually create a mana orb? I mean shaping raw mana is dangerous, according to the book?’ said the student.
‘A necromancer is undead in theory, so basically creating a mana orb isn’t harmfull to the caster, unless the caster is still alive.’ replied Zorbak.
‘Yes but at the elementary school of Wizardry, we were told never to touch mana in its raw being, then why as necromancer are we excluded from this rule?’ asked the student.
‘I see that creating a mana orb is a little too difficult for you..... lets try something different. I want you to create a ball of energy from raw mana... can you do that?’ asked Zorbak.

The class started to work on that, and after a fewfailures, a few mana elementals and mini explosions, finally the class managed to get one pure mana ball.

‘Now, it looks like one of you finally figured how to shape mana into a ball. Now, we can use this ball to extend a lifeforce in a minion. Therefor we move the ball into the subject we wish to extend. The caster of the mana ball may come towards me with his/her minion.’ said Zorbak.

The student approached zorbak together with his light imbued minion.
‘Impressive, I see you also managed to tunnel darkness magic into light. Very good, student!’ continued Zorbak.
‘Now, you may begin, carefully withdraw a little of the lifeforce from your minion, and unite it with the mana ball and return it to the minion’ continued Zorbak.

The student did as Zorbak said, and the mana ball was absorbed into the undead minion. Once this was done, the undead minion started to cast a spell revealing a paladin armor, and a normal metal paladin axe and a shield. Then the undead minion started to laugh, or at least make a laughing movement with his head.

‘Uhmmmm Zorbak.... are you sure that the minion is under control?’ I smirked while looking at it.
‘I think so... yes. Lets wait.’ replied Zorbak.

The undead paladin seemed to be charging an attack on somebody, likely because he has memories of when he was human and still alive, fighting for good. He raised his axe and charged against Zorbak, whom dodged and countered the attack.

‘Student! Get your minion under control or withdraw its lifeforce!’ I shouted.
‘I can’t Professor, its not listening!’ replied the student.

Then I charged an mana attack and shaped it into pure damage and casted it onto the minion on which it fell apart almost at once.

‘Whew that was close...’ I muttered.
‘Thanks professor’ said the student. ‘I’m sorry for losing the control over the minion, it had a will of its own’ he continued.
‘Doesn’t matter, that can happen with magicians.’ replied Zorbak. ‘Okay class, what we just did, is trying to imbue a minion with raw mana, meaning the minion can cast spells on its own. That was todays lesson, I hope you found it as entertaining as I did’ he continued.

Then Professor Magic took over the class, standing beside Zorbak.

‘For tomorrow, Class, I would like you to write down everything we did today, including shaping mana and employing raw mana into a minion so that a minion can use that mana to its own liking. I expect a summary of todays lecture on my desk tomorrow.’ spoke Prof.Magic.
‘Class dismissed!’ I smiled. And the students wandered off outside.
‘So, Zorbak. What do you think of teaching your first lecture?’ asked Prof.Magic.
‘I want to become a teacher here, mehehehehehehehe!’ laughed Zorbak.
‘The lecture is much better and more extended than given in the NecroU institution.’ he continued.
‘As in we bring forth better Necromancers than NecroU ever did?’ I asked.
‘Indeed.’ replied Zorbak. ‘So, any vacancies for a teacher? and a spare room?’ asked Zorbak.
‘Yes, we have.’ I replied. ‘Welcome on board’ I continued. After that, Zorbak went to the chamber I had created for him in the basement, and I went upstairs to my balcony, together with a raspberry smoothie, even though I didn’t need to drink anything anymore, it was just for the idea. Prof.Magic joined me.

‘It has been a long day, but worth the effort’ he spoke.
‘Yes, a very long day. I hope our SkeleGeneral is doing his job right.’ I replied
‘Maybe we should imbue him with raw mana...’ said Prof.Magic.
‘We saw what happens, thus I don’t think it is a good idea’ I smirked.
‘Yes, but you are a Lich... I am a necromancer... we are different then Zorbak, Madame.’ said Prof.Magic.
‘True that. We’ll see tomorrow.’ I replied, while I looked over Doomwood forest.The sun was setting and the evening came along.
‘Ahh finally the evening falls. I enjoy this moment soo much’ I smiled.
‘It is indeed the most finest part of the day’ replied Prof.Magic.
‘My favorite part of the day. It makes me feel so good’ I spoke.
‘So our private army at Willow Creek still stands, otherwise a messenger would’ve been here already.’ I smiled.
‘Yes. They have a situation there, but our general is suitable to solve it. He has us, the necromancer whom created him, as backbone, which makes interesting lecture material, don’t you think?’ replied Prof.Magic.
‘Necromancer as backbone? We are indeed nothing more than that for our undead minions. Maybe we should start training undead mages... for more security.’ I replied thoughtful.
‘You still have your secret weapon, the champion of darkness with that amulet Lady Gravelyn gave you’ said Prof.Magic. ‘But our general is capable of solving situations by himself with the raw mana we gave him’ he continued.
‘No need for our interference there, maybe we should withdraw some forces and invade a different village’ I spoke.
‘I think, Madame... you should continue your archmage study about tunneling mana to pure shape’ said Prof.Magic.
‘I will.’ I replied and upon that I went inside to my desk, to write into my diary.

‘Day 10. Dear diary. Today was a successful day. Our invasion on Willow Creek went smooth and without too much casualties. We now possess the town. The school went well too, we hired Zorbak as teacher and he gave his first lecture today about tunneling raw mana, which I am studying myself at the moment, which I will continue in a bit after I finish writing. Today was a very educational day, and quite electrifying too, looking at the results we booked. We have proven that we are there, with a private army of my own. For now, I am a Lich too, meaning i’m no longer in the land of the living, nor in the land of the dead, but balancing on the barrier of both realms. I have no urge for food anymore or for drinks, but I just drink for the occasion. And I will keep writing you and inform you about our progress we make on Lore. For now, Danitia out.’

And then I got the book on the Archmage Research project, which I continued reading until the night fell. Prof.Magic held me company. As a lich, I didn’t need to sleep anymore either. To make the lecture more interesting, I needed to study more of the mana tunneling, even though I possessed the art of it. But the book wasn’t very clear... I studied more and more, but it practically kept repeating what to do and how to tunnel mana, dissipate it or how to shape it, and even how to create a mana elemental, such as... a golem.

‘Creating a mana golem would bring me to an idea... Ledgermayne did that too’ I muttered.
‘We can create a undead mana golem’ replied Prof.Magic.
‘There is no such thing as undead mana, is there?’ I replied.
‘Not that I know of, but we can try creating it’ said Prof.Magic.
‘Thats dangerous...’ I replied.
‘Very...’ said Prof.Magic.

I decided to turn the page of the book, where I found all possible ways to channel mana into my liking.

‘The elfen archmage Beleqwaya found a way to tunnel mana into the way the archmages of Lore once did in the past, except this method is not stable, and can be very dangerous to the caster. Since the documentation of the real archmages is lost, and with that, the secret of Mana Manipulation, we will have to do with Beleqwaya’s findings. Beleqwaya found the Manasplosion Mini spell, which causes severe damage to a target, but if used with too much mana, it can harm or even KILL the caster! Use this spell with caution, it is the same as Shaping Mana into pure damage, which does the same as the manasplosion spell, but is less harmfull to the caster. One side effect of shaping mana and tunneling it into pure damage is that it burns the caster. As for dissipating mana, it allows the caster to withdraw or drain the mana from the target without causing damage or harm to the target, or to the caster. Then as last, we have the Mana Elemental, also known as the Mana Spirit. This is a elemental built from raw mana and aligns with the caster in combat. Elementals can also be used as minions for different purposes, but mostly they align in combat. Usually they employ the light element as basic element.
Now, to summarize the benefits of this spell, and the parts of being an archmage is quite short, but very powerful. Most opponents in battle do not expect the Void element to be employed in a attack, so basically they cannot develop defenses against it, which is beneficial for the caster. Also, when the caster was to be undead, then this spell can be very dangerous to any target from the caster, as the caster cannot be harmed easily. A lich can summon night wisps, which are basically the same as pure mana spirits, otherwise, the caster can summon a normal mana spirit, which is about half the length of the caster, and the caster can summon a mana golem, which is twice the length and twice the size of the caster. Be warned, the caster must be very stable in order to control a golem, if the connection or link between the raw mana from the caster and the golem is disconnected or disturbed, the golem can turn out of control and cause SEVERE damage and to the caster and its surrounding area. Shaping mana into pure damage gives a fatal blow to the target with the void element. This is usually a surprise effect for the target, and the side effect for the caster is a minor burn. Then to dissipate the mana from the target has the goal to disable mages for instance to cast spells against the caster, meaning they are defenseless and cannot cause harm when attacking the caster. So far, these are my findings and I hope that you are interested and continue the research for me. Beleqwaya.’
‘Dang that was quite a big chapter’ I spoke.
‘Very.. I read it with you... but I have flashbacks from me being alive... I suddenly realized that Mister isn’t correct for me...’ spoke Prof.Magic.
‘It isn’t? Are you female?’ I asked surprised.
‘Yup. My name was LaeLala, serving my healing magic to my mistress or master.’ replied Prof.Magic.
‘Alright, then I will call you LaeLala from now on.’ I smiled.
‘That would be great, thanks!’ said LaeLala. ‘If I could smile, I would smile right now’ she continued.
‘So what did you use your magic for?’ I asked.
‘I used my magic to increase my mistress or master her/his wisdom and intellect, making their spells more powerful’ replied LaeLala.
‘Well, you are the first female moglin necromancer now...’ I smiled.
‘I was wondering, is there a way you could make me look... more alive? giving me a fur?’ asked LaeLala.
‘Actually I can.’ I replied.
‘That would be great! then I would be able to smile again!’ said LaeLala.
‘I’ll make you.... a vampire Moglin!’ I smiled.
‘That would be great!’ said LaeLala.
‘Hmmm what was the spell? Ahh yes.’ I muttered and then I casted the spell and saw Prof.Magic changing into a lovely black mogling with cute eyes and a sweet voice. She was now a vampire moglin, undead of course.
‘Yay!’ smiled LaeLala while she danced for joy. ‘I can smile again and I look great! Thank you soo much!’ she continued.
‘We’ve been together for soo long now, it was the least I could do’ I replied. ‘Consider this a promotion’ I smiled.
‘I will. Now shall we study more on the archmage thing? or are we ready?’ said LaeLala.
‘I think we are ready. I read the entire lecture on what we can do with raw mana.’ I replied.

Chapter 3.2: Returning to the Roots
That same night, I had a weird feeling. I wanted to return to myself, to when I started my path as a hero of Lore. I went to Battleon, leaving Laelala in charge of the tower and to monitor Willow Creek. I didn’t know how long I would take to find myself back. I headed to the trainers of Battleon, where I spoke with Juvania. I wanted to employ my dark magic into healing magic. She gave me a basic training and the knowhow to heal friendly people. I decided to train my abillities, and knew it would take very long to be back in the shape I was when I just started my path, as healer.

‘Healers possess the basic knowledge of nature and employ their magic for good purposes, you however, Miss Danitia, are evil. However, I do not see any problems with you training as a healer as you can tunnel any kind of magic to your liking. Your legend headed ahead of you, and we know of your great deeds, and your evil deeds. Now, I hope training as healer makes you realize that you are on Lore to do good things, either in name of the Shadowscythe, or in name of King Alteon the Good. Whatever choice you make, is fully up to you, and your wisdom and intellect will aid you as a healer, wether this is evil or good.’ said Juvania and she handed me the healer robes. I put them on in a seperate room, beneath my black robes and returned to her.
‘I promise I won’t do evil things as a healer, and I will aid the people who need healing in time.’ I replied.
‘I will rely on my abillity to trust you, Danitia. Now go and train, be one with nature and everything that surrounds you and aid those who need you!’ spoke Juvania while she held her staff high into the air.
‘I will.’ I replied. Then I headed to Yulgars Inn for a raspberry smoothie. People greeted me, the local heroes of Battleon and Yulgar himself. I looked around and chatted with people about random things. Then I walked outside, into the forest of Greenguard. There, I met the Mysterious Stranger.
‘Danitia. I have been looking forward to this moment, and I have been looking forward to meet you. Your legend proceeds you.’ he spoke.
‘Whoa... who are you?’ I asked.
‘A lich with your power, knowledge and wisdom should know who I am, but its not important right now. You will hear more of me, once Drakath is defeated. That will allow you to unleash your true power, or take it to a greater level, which I can help you with.’ replied the Mysterious Stranger.
‘Just tell me how... and I will get to it. Sooner or later’ I smirked.
‘Your services to Nulgath, General of the Abyss will be rewarded. Seeing that you develop yourself being good and doing good things to aid your fellow heroes, will be rewarded as well. Be sure to become a blacksmith and forge your own weapon, then I might be able to imbue this weapon with Doom.’ said the Mysterious Stranger.
‘Sooo you want me to forge a doomweapon? Listen, Mister. I’m a magician, a necromancer and a immortal lich, not a weaponsmith.’ I replied.
‘Cysero is a magician too and he forges weapons, doesn’t he?’ replied the Mysterious Stranger.
‘Uhm yes.’ I replied.
‘See? you can forge a weapon on your own, magically imbued even.’ replied the Mysterious Stranger.
‘Okay, you’re right. I will learn the art of the blacksmith. Let me talk to Yulgar and Cysero, and we’ll see from there.’ I replied.
‘That would be a good idea, but don’t get me wrong, i’m not forcing you to do this, but I just want to help you in your aid to become stronger and more powerful. The right weapon gives the power you need.’ replied the Mysterious Stranger.
‘Can I bring you a staff... which contains the skull of Noxus?’ I asked.
‘That weapon is forged by Cysero, and I cannot imbue it with Doom. Noxus does not qualify for a doomweapon, you do however.’ replied the Mysterious Stranger.
‘Does that mean you want my skull?’ I smirked.
‘No you fool. You are able to forge a weapon which I can imbue with Doom.’ replied the Mysterious Stranger.
‘Allow me to think about it, and get on it. Will you be around here?’ I replied.
‘Yes.’ replied the Mysterious Stranger.
‘Good.’ I replied.

Upon that, I wandered off further north, where I summoned Bonehead, my undead minion. Willow Creek was further north and I decided to pay a quick visit. Once I arrived there, I notice nothing had changed since the invasion, which was good. I wandered inside the church, where our Skelecommander was standing on the altar, and an audience of undead minions were sitting on the many benches.

‘All hail the Queen!’ I shouted. I had a feeling something strange was going on, as if the minions were rebellious.
‘Minions! This is supposed to be our queen. A mortal.’ spoke the Skelecommander. ‘Who is our deity? A immortal king?’ he continued.
‘Desterrat Moya!’ shouted the minions simultaneously. Then the minions looked upon me.

I walked back outside and headed to my tower almost immediately and with a lot of speed. I had to get out of there and fast. Then I noticed the minions were not following me. Then I arrived at my tower and went upstairs as soon as I could, to see if Laelala was there.

‘Laelala, the minions of Willow Creek are revolting! They found their hail in some thing called Desterrat Moya?’ I spoke. I noticed that I didn’t have to catch my breath anymore, because I wasn’t breathing at all since I became a lich.
‘Then the legend is true. There is a Royal Undead Slayer named Knave1. He told the legend about a creature as powerful as a undead deity named Desterrat Moya. This being resides in the void, and is able to control any minion that isn’t attached to its master securely.’ replied Laelala, with a severe look in her eyes.
‘But how? How would the being be able to control them? or take control of them?’ I asked.
‘He doesn’t. The faith of the minion in him empowers them to set themselves free from their master.’ replied Laelala.
‘The skelecommander!’ we spoke simultaneously. ‘We imbued him with raw mana in order to develop a will of its own’ I continued.
‘Enough to set himself free and believe in the deity, and enough to cast a rebellion spell upon the minions of Willow Creek, or he set them free.’ spoke Laelala.
I sat down on my bed and took some time to think. I figured soon enough we had to overthrow the skelecommander, but thought of a different way.

‘I think I’ll journey to Swordhaven and see if I can find Knave1‘ I said to Laelala.
‘Why, madame?’ she asked.
‘To see if we can destroy the undead deity?’ I replied.
‘It can likely be destroyed, but be aware, don’t tunnel raw mana into void magic!’ said Laelala.
‘Uhm? why?’ I asked.
‘You are facing the foe on his terrain, in the void...’ replied Laelala. ‘Void magic doesn’t work in the void’ she continued.
‘Ohh okay. Got it.’ I replied, upon which I walked outside of the tower, heading for Swordhaven.

Once I arrived at Swordhaven, I found Knave1 outside. Together with a royal guard and Alina was standing in the distance. The window was blowing softly through the trees, and it was quite warm in Lore this day.

‘Knave1. Good thing I have found you. My name is Danitia, interim Queen of the Shadowscythe.’ I spoke.
‘Your majesty, how may I help you?’ replied Knave1.
‘I have a slight problem with my minions... they are rebelling!’ I replied.
‘Then you come as needed. I have investigated this issue, the undead were not calm for a longer time, so I found out something was wrong, as if something was turning them against their masters. I was right. There is a undead deity in the void whom is causing the uprising. His name is Desterrat Moya, I don’t know what he is precisely, but he is powerfull enough to cast rebellion spells all over Lore’s undeads.’ spoke Knave1.
‘Strangely he didn’t affect me...’ I replied.
‘You are a lich, but still connected to your human form. You are balancing between the realm of the living and the realm of the dead, being a very powerful lich. Therefor you have a will of your own, and he can’t reach you as your wisdom and intellect is beyond, or equal to his. You can control anything undead too, just like him by giving them faith and something to believe in. Also, you have learned to control your raw mana, and eventually tunnel it into magic, by reading the Archmage Research book, written by Beleqwaya Melamin. For more information about your eternal self, you should refer to necromancy teachers, such as yourself. Your legend has proceeded you.’ spoke Knave1.
‘So, how do I get in the void?’ I asked.
‘There is a spell I could teach you to take you into the void. Remember the spell well, as your journeys into the void may occur more than once, and being a Lich, it might come in handy to be one with the void’ said Knave1.

Then he thought me the spell, I casted it and felt as if I was sucked into a major black hole. Then I closed my eyes and when I opened them, I was on a passageway in the universe as it seemed. It was a very odd experience, though I had been in the void before, to challenge the Void Dragon, except everything was purple then, now everything is clearly red. I started floating fast over the passage ways, hoping to find Desterrat Moya as soon as I could. I encountered other monsters, beings without a clear being, I destroyed them with a single hit of darkness as I was aware not to use void magic.

‘Desterrat Moya!? I came for you! There is nowhere you can hide!’ shouted my ghostly dead voice through the void. It made me shiver myself, but I wondered if my voice would stay like this if I ever came out.
‘Come on in, mortal!’ replied a voice, and a black hole seemed to open.

I went inside. The most hidious creature I could imagine was standing right in front of me. If it was standing, I had my doubts, it seemed to be floating more. I opposed it.

‘So, you are Desterrat Moya? The ‘god’ my minions believe in?’ I asked.
‘Yes and you are? except a mortal?’ replied the creature.
‘I am Danitia, an immortal Lich in my world.’ I replied.
‘Immortal and a Lich? then you have as much power as I do, how comes your minions obey to me?’ replied Moya.
‘I do not know, maybe because I imbued them with their own will.’ I replied. I was surprised that the creature actually tried to start a conversation with me and not attacked at once it saw me. I could learn from him if I kept asking more.
‘Then they are not rebellous to you, Lich. They act out of their own free will. I am sure my legend must’ve reached them by preachers whom heard about me, and they must’ve started having faith in me. That is not because they disobey you, but that is because they’re free to believe what they want. If you denied them that, then they would never have started rebelling against you, dear Lich. I don’t force any undead minion to believe in me or have faith in me, even though I exist, it is their own state of the life force that resides within them. That life force wants to believe in me, so they have faith in me, and they think I do great things, which I promised them. All they want is to be free, like everyone else. You are free, even though you are balancing between the realm of the undead and the living. You could believe in me, as you see me with your own eyes. You came however, to destroy me. You oppose my might, as you are just as powerful in the realm of the living and the realm of the dead. Only a true Lich understands me being undead and would leave me in peace too.’ said Desterrat Moya.
‘It almost sounds like you have a conscience.... just like I do...’ I replied.
‘So do your minions, and mine. They act out of their own free will, thus they have a conscience thanks to the raw mana you gave them to increase their wisdom and intellect.’ replied Desterrat Moya.
‘I knew it.’ I muttered.
‘Have a chair... standing or floating is a bit uncomfortable isn’t it?’ said Desterrat Moya while he raised his arm and a comfortable couch and comfortable chair appeared, upon which he sat down. I decided to sit down on the chair too. ‘Drink?’ he asked, and a undead minion walked upon us serving juice. He gave the minion a piece of gold whilst it walked off.
‘See, if you treat them right, like they want to be treated, they will serve you well. You must not enslave them, but reward them as if they were employee’s of your corporation. An employee is simply a slave too if you look at it, because they fear that they can get fired if they don’t do their job right, and meanwhile they have to support themselves so they will make sure they do their job right. An employee will perform even better as a slave as they hope for a better reward or a promotion to a better function, you see this happen daily if you look around you. You don’t need to be a god, or a lich to see that.’ said Desterrat Moya.
‘You mean... every human being, hero, king and empress are slaves?’ I asked with a smile.
‘Yes, look at Empress Gravelyn for instance. Put there to avenge her father, enslaved to her wrath and emotions. Easy to be exploited by Miltonius. Or King Alteon, put there because he overthrew Slugwrath and he is a symbol to every knight and every hero that serves the good, generally he is a slave to them, if he turns evil, he will be turned down by everything he loves.’ replied Desterrat Moya.
‘Good thing I am a lich, I serve my own’ I replied. ‘Although I help out others, without a general need to do that’ I continued.
‘Yes, but you mainly serve your own goal. You are not enslaved to others or others their opinion’ said Desterrat Moya. ‘Assuming you want to achieve something, you just go do it, wether it hurts others or not, because you don’t depend on the opinions of others. That is the good way of seeing it, it makes you a deity or in your case, a immortal lich. I can do the same, making the undead believe in me out of their own free will. I can get a lot of power through them, but I don’t need it. All I want is them to be free.’ he continued.
‘Interesting, very very interesting...’ I replied smiling. A lot of thoughts went through my head because I knew this being was right on certain points. Especially the enslavement part.
‘You see, on Lore we are enslaved to our heroic deeds. others are enslaved to obtaining the best weapons and gear. Yet others are obsessed with earning Adventure Coins. While we, are here in the void, drinking a voidberry juice together, being immortal and all. But, we have achieved our greater goals. Being a lich, you don’t need anything further from the realm of the living, and for me, I got recognition in the realm of the dead so I don’t need anything further either. What is better than that?’ spoke Desterrat Moya.


Watch others fight hard for learning new knowledge, which they employ in classes. And others, trying to earn Adventure Coins badly.’ smiled Desterrat Moya, while he created a magical portal, such as a viewport to see what is happening on Lore.
‘Yes sitting up here does have its good side, except I’ll be returning to Lore soon. How do I seize control over my minions back?’ I asked.
‘Just talk to your commander in Willow Creek, tell him what he wants to hear and he will be serving your goals again, trust me.’ replied Desterrat Moya. ‘And tell him you spoke with me, that might impress.’ he continued.
‘Okay I will try that. Thank you so much, Desterrat Moya.’ I replied.
‘Please stay a little longer. Here is another view from heroes trying to find me, trying to slay me’ said Desterrat Moya.

Chapter 3.3: Was it only a dream?

The next night, I opened my eyes....

‘Whoah! Was it all a dream? That I turned Chaotic? That I am a Necromancer?’ I muttered.
I stood up and walked to the mirror in which I did not appear. Then I walked outside and looked in the water that surrounds my necromancer tower and saw a reflection of myself. I looked astonishing. I had a pretty face, red lips with sharp canine teeth and red eyes. I was wearing a red silkish outfit with black. ‘Drat! how did I become a vampire?’ I muttered. I rushed down to Darkovia and into Safiria’s castle. There I met the Queen.
‘Safiria! What have you done to me!?’ I asked
‘I did not do anything you did not ask’ she replied. ‘You are one of my kin now, a vampire elder with a high knowledge of magic’ she continued.
‘Wha...What?’ I asked.
‘Danitia, you hunger for a tremendous power. You have been having weird dreams about ruling Shadowfall and teleporting whole houses whilst being chaorupted. None of thatwas real.’ said Safiria. ‘You are capable of handling much power, migh and fame, but you hunger for too much in one time’ she continued.
‘But how did I dream this? it seemed all so real?’ I spoke.
‘You slept for nearly 100 years when I made you one of my kin, dear’ replied Safiria with a laugh.
‘That makes sense’ I replied. ‘What am I currently?’ I asked.
‘Simply a magical vampire, necromancer and a excellent strong healer. You must seek alliance soon.’ said Safiria.
‘Will you aid me if I need you?’ I asked.
‘Of course’ replied Safiria.

I headed back outside to my house and decided to refreshen myself and head to Battleon and see people in Yulgar.

I sat down and ordered a half dragon berry Mug. I spoke to Yulgar for a while and he recommended me to head back to Safiria to find out more about what happened. Then, I walked outside and rushed towards Darkovia. Once I arrived there, I entered Safiria’s castle for anothe audience with the queen.

‘Your highness, I have returned with some questions’ I spoke while I bowed.
‘Here we go again’ muttered Safiria. ‘Go ahead and ask’ she continued.
‘First, can I practice Necromancy?’ I asked.
‘Yes, you can, however since you are already eternal, you cannot become a lich, but you can have a lich as minion’ said Safiria.
‘Wow, that gives me a tremendous power, no?’ I asked.
‘Indeed, you should talk to Sally in the Tower of Necromancy to learn more about that subject.’ smiled Safiria.
‘I know.’ I replied. ‘I dreamt about that place.’ I continued.
‘So anything else, or can I continue with my matters of more importance?’ asked Safiria.
‘Yeah, what exactly happened 100 years ago?’ I asked.
‘I bit you, you fell asleep and didn’t awaken for a long time. I decided to let you rest in my castle until you would wake up.’ smiled Safiria. ‘I had no idea it would take that long though.’ she continued.
‘Okay, thank you, your highness. I know what I have to do now.’ I spoke.

I headed out of the castle and ran towards Doomwood, where the tower of Necromancy was to be found. I could actually see it in the distance. I headed towards the tower, where a winged eyeball awaited me.
‘I knew you were coming, Danitia. Welcome’ said the eyeball with a blink.

Then I entered the tower and headed upstairs. There I found Sally, the Supreme Necromantress of Doomwood. I had high expectations of her, but they fell when I saw the little girl, whom I had seen before somewhere.
‘You!?’ I asked.
‘What did you expect? A old grey haired woman, with wrinkles? Slappy old rags as clothing?’ she laughed.
‘Uhm... kind of.’ I replied.
‘Well no. I rebuilt the Necro University whenArtix and some hero destroyed it ages ago. You were asleep at the time, likely, as what I understood from Safiria. Now, you want to become a Necromancer, or do you already have the dark skills within you? let us test.’ she spoke.
‘I think I master the skills, my teacher.’ I replied.
She pointed at a pile of bones and a skull.
‘What can you make of that?’ giggled Sally.
I concentrated and made a fully perfect skeletal minion of it.

‘Happy?' I asked.
‘Impressive. You are ready’ said Sally. ‘You may keep him, he’s yours. Now you can promote him to anything you like, or demote him whenever you like.... or her of course. But first... a name.’ smiled Sally.
‘Hmmm I’ll name her Jeanne D’Arc’ I smiled.
‘Good. Now, if we want to promote her, we have to figure out how to imbue her with that kind of dark magic.’ said Sally. ‘Be careful, if you employ raw mana, it might destroy her’ she continued.
‘Wouldn’t be the first skeleton I destroyed’ I spoke.
‘No, but this skeleton is connected to you now’ said Sally. ‘So what do you want her to be?’ she asked.
‘A lich’ I replied.
‘That is difficult... as you are aware, I created Noxus, so I can help you with this. First, we have to imbue her with raw mana, in order for her to turn that into dark magic for minions etc.’ said Sally.
‘Thats an Archmage spell isn’t it?’ I asked.
‘Yes. Noxus has told me exactly how to do it. Now focus and tunnel your mana into the minion, but be aware not to use all your mana, otherwise it can destroy you instead.’ said Sally.

Upon that, I concentrated and tunneled my mana into the skeletal minion. I had no mana left, but it seemed like a success. I casted another spell to give her mage robes and long blondish hair.

‘Okay’ said Sally. 'Lets see if she can summon minions.'

I commanded her to summon a undead minion, which she responded to and another skeleton appeared next to Jeanne.
‘Danitia, I have to say I am impressed. You created a lich on your own!’ giggled Sally.
‘Wha...What? you didn’t help?’ I asked.
‘Nope, otherwise she wouldn’t listen to you’ said Sally.
‘Oh that makes sense. So now I bring her to my home? or can she just vanish?’ I asked.
‘Just make her vanish’ said Sally. ‘You can summon her to aid you in battle’ she continued.

I casted a spell and she disappeared. Then I walked out of the tower too after greeting Sally, and thanking her.
I headed to my home, where I decided to catch some sleep when the morning fell. The next night I stood up and got some milk and bread. The moon was very beautifull and high in the sky. I heard howling.
‘Drat... Lycans’ I muttered and headed back into my house. ‘I HATE lycans...’ I continued.
A few hours passed as the howling went into the distance, so it was safe for me to head out. I had to find out what I was going to do.
‘What am I going to do? A a coup on Shadowfall would be very cool’ I giggled a bit like Sally, while thinking up loud. I headed down back to Battleon and went to Warlic his Mage Shop. Once inside... a surprise awaited me.
‘Danitia. I have been waiting for you’ spoke Warlic.
‘Wha... What? How?’ I stumbled surprised.
‘Your journey starts here, young vampire.’ smiled Warlic.
‘What do you mean?’ I asked.
‘Every hero needs a ally. There is a ally looking for you named VULKAN’ replied Warlic.
‘Wait... Where?’ I asked.
‘In the hot desert of the Sandsea’ said Warlic.
‘And what could Vulkan possibly want from me?’ I asked.
‘He is a pyromancer, a fire mage seeking an ally for a greater cause.’ replied Warlic.

‘Vulkan?’ I asked.
‘You will meet him in the heat and depth of the Sandsea. Go there and find him, Danitia.’ replied Warlic.
‘Wait... what use does he have to me?’ I asked.
‘Fire and undead work well together’ smiled Warlic.

Then I headed back outside and walked into Yulgar where I met up with the regulars. I ordered my regular drink and started to ponder what kind of equipment I would need for the journey. I realized I had a canvas tent at home, which I could use to spend the day in, as it is dark colored, however, it isn’t quite good against heat. I’d also need a water supply and food, and last but not least, blood.

‘I have a long journey ahead of me, Yulgar.’ I smiled.
‘Oh? Where to?’ he asked.
‘The deserts of the sandsea.’ I replied.
‘Thats indeed quite a while from here. But, what for dare I ask?’ said Yulgar.
‘I have to meet somebody there.’ I replied.

Then I finished my drink and headed down to my cottage house, where I kept my adventurer goods. Once I arrived there, I picked up my backpack, put the tent into it and started searching for a fishing rod and enough water bottles. Lore is pretty clean concerning water, so from each stream I could collect water, however, in the desert there is only one oasis for water, and I hope to find Vulkan there.

I was lucky that I was getting used to daylight, but I decided to to rest in my cottage before I would start my journey. The next night, I headed out closing the door behind me, and headed through the woods of Darkovia towards Battleon in Greenguard. I started to think about the fact that necromancers were able to float while I was walking. I tried casting a spell, which worked and found myself floating a little above the floor.
‘Thats better’ I muttered. ‘This saves me a lot of energy’
Before I knew it, I was already entering Greenguard forest, where I would usually expect adventure or a sudden enemy, which of course... happened. A lycan jumped out of the bushes.
‘Raaaawwr vampire *snif* lunch *gnarl*’ moaned the beast.
‘Hmmm doggy, you look a little weak. What happened?’ I asked while stopping and getting my sword from its holder.
‘Listen carefully *gnarl**puff**gasp* vampire. I *puff* will eat you raw’ said the werewolf.
‘In your condition, you cannot even battle me, if you tell me what happened, I will help you so you can return to your pack’ I spoke.
‘You....helping me?’ asked the werewolf surprised.
‘We both don’t have time for a battle now.’ I replied.
‘Okay *puff* there are cat people far away in the south on a island *gasp* they captured me, but I escaped.’ said the werewolf. I put my sword back into its holder and removed the collar from his neck which was attached to a chain.
‘Cat people?’ I asked.
‘*puf* yes *pant* you will find them on your journey vampire’ spoke the werewolf

Then I pulled my sword and cut the chains loose.

‘*puff* thanks I owe you one’ spoke the werewolf and he changed to his human shape.
‘Obviously a victim of lycanthropy, no?’ I smiled.
‘Yes. Same as you with vampirism, however I was too blind to see your beauty. My name is James’ said the Werewolf.
‘Danitia’ I replied.
‘Our ways will seperate now I guess. Until we meet again’ said James and he vanished into the woods.
‘I guess.’ I muttered.

I floated further to the south till I saw the Guardian Tower of Battleon in the distance. I knew then that I could stop at Yulgar and have a drink before heading further south. I decided to do so. Arriving at Yulgar, I encountered James again.

‘So, we meet again, James.’ I smiled.
‘Hello Danitia. So we do meet again.’ said James.
‘Yulgar, can I have the regular?’ I asked.
‘Thats on me, Yulgar.’ said James.
‘What can you tell me about those cat people?’ I asked.
‘Actually you have met them here on Lore already... when talking with Rolith.’ replied James. ‘Except, the ones I am talking about are much and much stronger. You could do a coup on their Island if you were a lich.’ he continued.
‘I can summon a lich’ I smiled. I concentrated and called forth Jeanne.
‘Now that is impressive. She controls the undead fully, and you control her?’ asked James.
‘Yes.’ I replied.
‘Very impressive, I think I would’ve lost in battle back there in Greenguard’ smiled James.
‘Maybe, lets not talk about it’ I smiled.
‘Either way, I don’t think the cat people island is your ultimate goal, I would advice you to visit Dragonclaw Island. There, you must talk to the Archmage and find out about the Archmage research projects.’ said James.
‘Funny, I dreamt about that. I slept for nearly 100 years.’ I replied.
‘Thats a long time. The archmage research spell is very interesting what i’ve heard.’ said James.
‘What were you, before you became a Lycan?’ I asked.
‘A mage.’ smiled James.
‘I am heading to the Sandsea first, to find a pyromancer. Maybe I will journey further when I found him’ I spoke.
‘I would advice you to do so. Oh, dawn is breaking, I must depart now. We will meet again in the future’ said James. He stood up, gave some gold to Yulgar, shook my hand and left.
‘Kind character, isn’t he?’ asked Yulgar.
‘Yes.’ I replied and I drank my drink. ‘I must depart as well, Yulgar. See you!’ I continued.

I headed outside back into the forest, where I took my canvas tent out of my backpack. I made a small camp fire near it and went inside the tent to sleep, making sure it was sealed shut from sunlight. I fell asleep almost at once. The next night, I woke up feeling quite strange. My ears became pointy... as if I became a real vampire. I didn’t know precisely what I had to do, but one thing I knew for sure, that I have to contact Safiria when I returned. Instead, I thought of Gravelyn and decided to send a minion to Safiria to ask what is going on. This also made me decide to stay another night in Greenguard.

My minion returned from Darkovia with the answers from Safiria. It comforted me, as I heard the ears were not permanent, but just a fase in the change. I sensed the power of chaos in the air as well, and I gathered Gravelyn woulld be pondering about it too.
I opened a barrel of water and lit the fire for some dinner. It was still early evening, so I had the time to decide wether to move further or just wait for a while. I decided to move on, put my tent in my backpack etc and headed further south until I received this weird call, from a Legion Raven. Some sort of energy dragged me down to a strange looking building, and I have no idea how long I have floated for or where I am even. A sign on the gate readed...

Chapter 4.0: The Paladinum Insane Asylum and The Span

‘Welcome Danitia. Your legend has proceeded you’ spoke a mysterious stranger in a Raven armor.
‘Thank you I guess. What is this place about?’ I asked.
‘Your soul hungers to feed on the insane that are inside this building, just like ours. Join our Legion’ said the stranger.
‘Okay I will.’ I replied, upon which I was given a armor, hood, weapons and a cloak.
‘Now, you can feed on the mental energy of the Insane that are here. But you are on a mision. Travel down to the Span, there you may find answers to the strange timeline we are in, we have heard that the devourer might be coming to Lore, as long as we do not find unity within ourselves, and with eachother, Danitia.’ spoke the stranger. ‘Follow me’ he spoke.

Meanhile at Shadowfall.
‘I must find out what Danitia is doing! Chuckles! Go find her and bring her here for a quest or anything! I feel her Dark power and I must make sure she uses it for the right purposes, and not against me!’ said Gravelyn while smacking another undead minion to pieces.
‘She currently is a Legion Raven Lich!’ she continued. ‘She can overwhelm me with her power.’
‘You shouldn’t be that affraid of Danitia, majesty.’ spoke Gravelyn her sword.
‘Taking her back into the DF timeline, we all knew she supported my father.’ said Gravelyn.
‘Yes, but she has proven her loyalty to you, Empress. She won’t abandon you.’ spoke the NBoD.
‘True that. Maybe I am overworried.’ said Gravelyn while sitting down on the throne.

Back to Danitia. I followed the Legion Raven into the building and saw all kinds of heroes whom went insane.
‘What is this place?’ I asked.
‘You can call it a lunatic asylum, Miss Danitia. Nobody will ever leave here anymore, and we, Legion Ravens feed on mental energy in order for us to stay connected to Lore.’ replied the stranger.
‘Basically we are wraiths, no?’ I asked.
‘Yes, our body is still intact, but resting. Inside this armor, we’re spirits’ replied the stranger.
‘That what we encounter here, is what we fear most. We cannot help these people anymore, except draining them till we posses their last life energy. It makes us stronger warriors, and in your exeptional case... a undead lich.’ he replied.
‘There comes one now.’ I spoke while concentrating on him to drain his lifeforce. It felt good, and I felt my strength increasing.
‘I see you got the touch. Now its time to go to the Span... a deserted city in ruins. I rather compared it with the city of broken dreams.There is nothing left there. I called them the Ruins of Sadness, but it came to my ear, they are planning to redesign Falconreach, hen does me believe again that the devourer is coming, to cause even ore destruction, with without damage.'

Meanwhile... back at Shadowfall.

‘Chuckles!!!! Chuckles!!!!!’ sounded a angry voice, which was Gravelyn’s. 'Where in Lore is Danitia when I need her? She’ the only one I can trust, and help me set me free from my father his shadow! I’m the Shadowscythe ruler now and now Sepulchure is no longer!'
‘ hahahaahahahahah’ laughed Chuckles.
‘Where is she, dumb dumbskull! She should be here by now!’ said Gravelyn.
‘I am here, your highness.’ I replied.
‘As usual, on time, Danitia. I’ll be blunt. What side are you fighting on? I have to ask this again, Danitia.’ relied Gravelyn.
‘Empress, you worry too much I am on your side. I do have suggestions for the truce, but we will discuss that later’ I replied.
‘What did you precisely learn in the Asylum, Danitia?’ asked Gravenlyn a bit frenzy.
‘Nothing, I am one with the Past. Future and the Present now. All timelines flow through me now.’ I replied.
‘Interesting. And how to employ that again chaos?’ asked Gravelyn.
‘Simple, if we know past, future and present Drakath we can find his weak spot and attack him by sursprise’ I answered.
‘I’ll be blunt again, Danitia. I want you to become my Apprentice, future empress of the Shadowscythe.’ said Gravelyn,
‘Therefor, I entrust you with these two things: the void transport spell, there you might meet Sepulchure... and his Shadowscythe amulet, which will come to your aid in the hour of need.’ she continued.
‘Whoah, don’t you want to stay the supreme ruler yourself?’ I asked.
‘I am said to be the champion of light, so I can sense your dark power is larger than mine. I need you, and I beg you.’ said Gravelyn.
