Trident by his side, Thorace surveyed the entire terrain if the battlefield. The grand mountains blazed like monuments underneath the rays of the twelve suns, along with the menancing look of the battleships surrounding him, Thorace could see that he had been cornered, but that didn't mean he had been caught, instead, it gave him the opportunity to make the conflict even more interesting, and the way the tables were about to turn would be dramatic.
"I can feel it", Trident said taking in the air, "the heat of battle." "You read my mind Trident", Thorace remarked, "I'm really anxious to get in the zone." Staring at the battlecarpets above him, five in all, they were the flagships of this fleet. He knew who they were, Thorace smiled, and he was as the one who had come looking for them - the real

The astral skies above began to ripple in scarlet waves that gradually concealed this plain in a shield leaving the pirates of the Feudal Order and Thorace trapped within this massive globe. Staring at themselves petrified, the rest realized that they had been tricked into staying in the pretext of battle, meanwhile, it was just a trap to get them cornered, leaving them with no option but to fight if they didn't concede to his request. "Finally", Trident said, "they've realized that they're the ones who are cornered", facing Thorace he continued, "how about we gore them down right now ?" "Patience Trident", Thorace replied, "we'll give them a final chance to hand over the Trail Disector, just for honor's sake." "Norgus !" Thorace summoned. "You know what the price you must pay to get your freedom without anything fatal happening to your fleet. But if you decide to take matters to the blade", lifting his gaze to confront the five pi

Norgus strained as he is raised himself onto his feet, slamming his hand upon the metal deck of the battlecarpet, he gave a cry of fury, but before he could fully satisfy the burning desire of his rage, the Mace's fleet of interstellar chariots fell upon their fleet, unleashing volleys of beams and halos. Enacting a shield from the metal band on his wrist, he fought to keep his balance with a knee bending forward as he received the impact of the storm. Norgus growled as he battled against the forceful impact which the halos landing on his shield bore. The metal pads on his knees screeched, exhuming sparks as it slid over the battlecarpet's armoured surface as he was thrown backwards on receiving the impact. Norgus got back on his feet as soon as the storm died away, he had gotten some bruises but the battle was just beginning and he had more than just a reserve of strength within him to keep fighting. "Ray guns", Norgus ordered, "fire !" Once again, another storm of flames c

Plunging himself forward, he crashed into their ranks, his antlers cutting and goring his way through. His forelegs rose into the air as he gave a tremendous roar, unleashing that wave of condensed flames which engulfed the entire ship in its massive jaws. Arising from the wreakage, he landed upon another battlecarpet and this he caught sight of a very familiar face. The person turned around to confront him and growled, his countenance charging the air. Norgus was taken aback seeing Trident before him, but wasn't this what he had wanted all along ? He couldn't get Thorace, but here was his pet, now his to do as he wish. Recomposing himself Norgus brandished his sword, charging at Trident, the duo clashed, the core of their collision exhuming sparks of lightning. Trident was unshaken by Norgus'fierce fighting skills, wielding a sword, Norgus was supposed to have the upper hand, but only a fool would think that way. Didn't Norgus know that he wasn't battling just any beast, wha

His battleboard sailed through the distance as his blades slashed the armour of not just soldiers but battleships and battlecarpets, his Trident interlocking with the blades of tens. Thorace parried and struck like lightning, making moves from unpredictable angles and taking down scores of soldiers in scores, leaving every battleship he landed on in a crashing mass of flames then landing on another to unleash a more severe form of destruction upon those aboard. Staring at them as they charged at him in droves, he countered the assault as he confronted the soldiers head-on. He ducked, swirling around to slash down his opponent through the limbs, his sword cut through tens with a single stroke and his trident fell upon another score, unleashing a halo upon the rest, he sent them flying in a wave of flames.

Thorace's blade clashed with that sea of armour and swords, his trident trailing his every blow and battleboard acting as a shield, parrying the blows from every corner and unleashing volleys of beams upon the enemy.

"You all have stepped up a bit", Thorace said from his levitating board staring down at them, "but the question is, how far can you go before you finally break ?" Dorvin unleashed a halo at Thorace which caught him straight, the flames cleared away unveiling a grinning Thorace still standing on his board, his armour glistening without a single scratch. "You thought that could take me down, didn't you ?" Thorace laughed. "I don't blame you though, because I started it. But if you want to play the game that way, better know that it'll take more than that to bring me down, because now", his being raved with his eyes blazing gold, "I'm ready to fight." Charging at them, his battleboard plunged him into the air, Countering the blow from Dorvin and Nord's swords as he unleashed a halo from his trident and sword at them.

"Surround him !" Norgus ordered. His army of cosmic beasts fell upon Trident from all corners, leaving him no openings to escape. Still finding a gap, Trident bolted through their ranks, their claws trailing after him, breaking free from their grip his being exhumed that massive globe of condensed flames, which dazed them as he blazed past. Following him behind like vultures stalking a dying prey, they shot those fiery orbs at him from behind. Slithering through those stormy walls, Trident kept unleashing his own surge of flames at intervals, taking down tens of them in the process. They were gradually catching up with him, knowing fully well that if he didn't increase his pace he would end up getting caught in those vicious claws and bladed talons. He doubled his pace, but one thing was sure, at this state of his, without evolving, he was definitely going to wear out soon. It fell upon him from above, its talons smashing his back and digging

Trident closed his eyes, he'd just have to raise another shield to hold them back until he got a renewed energetic surge, he thought. But their piercing cries rang again, their limbs falling to the earth flailing. Staring above him, he saw domineering the skies, the Mace, surrounded by its mobile cannons and interstellar chariots, their cores exhuming volleys of halos, beams and orbs upon Norgus' attacking army of cosmic beasts. Turning to his side, Trident sea him standing proudly upon his battleboard, face unmoved and watching it all in silence as the first wave of cosmic beasts were wiped away. "You kept a solid front out there", Thorace commended, "but I saw you were tiring out and that soon, you'd be a flying pinball." "Nice joke", Trident snapped, "if you were here I'd not have to fight in this unevolved state." "Accept my apologies bondmate", Thorace said, "but I'd like to ask one thing." "From what I've seen, I

PHASE ONE Rakeal who was seated on the throne had only one thing in mind, how to ensure that his campaign wasn't nipped in the bud. The feudal lords of the realm in which he had invaded as well as the emperor of this empire had already began to rally their forces to take him down. But it didn't matter anyway, this was simply a game of politics, most importantly, he had been able to find a clue about the whereabouts of the Harp of Discord. This was one of the realms which was in alignment with the entity's astral flow, which meant that they were on the right path, so why would he give up on his prize over the likes of a few cocky politicians. This war was inevitable right from the very start and it was so unfortunate for them that it was him, that they'd be dealing with. "Zavir", Rakeal summoned. Zavir's form appeared before him on his knees, it wasn't the real Zavir, just a holograph. "Bring me Destovar", Rakeal ordered. "Yes your highness", Zavir replied with the holog

PHASE ONE Standing before the five kneeling warriors at the base of this dais, Norx Hade Zex gave his order. "You must find the Dark Child of War." *** Nomad's eyes glistened with delight, watching those endless clusters of four pillars stood tall upon this marmoreal sea before him. Their cores blazing of and intense energetic sensation. These astral cadencies were indeed horrifying to the weak. But he wasn't included in that category, this was just a test to see how his strength had improved since the passing of the last Calamity. *** "What do you suggest we do general Ozar ?" The commander asked. "Just watch", Ozar ordered, "watch calmly and take note of every detail within this conflict. We must know how powerful our enemy is." *** Those moans rose from the cores of those clusters of pillars. Those stellar reverberations made the foundations of this astral plain tremble and those lightning flashes heralded the coming of these astral lifeforms. From the s

PHASE ONE His eyes opened to find himself floating in this sphere containing a blue of fluid. Staring around trying to make out his surroundings, Kied realized that his sense of sight was still blurred. "There's no problem with that", he thought, "I can still go back to sleep then." Closing his eyes, Kied drifted back to sleep. Still he could hear those voices, although he wasn't awake, he knew the persons speaking. "I saw him open his eyes just now", the female voice said. "Why didn't I notice it ?" The other voice said. "How can you see clearly through the liquid he's sleeping in ?" The female voice answered. "I thought you weren't bothered about him, why are you making a fuss all of a sudden." Even in his sleep Kied's teeth gritted themselves, these two siblings were so annoying, and the funny part was, their names started with the same letter, making it sound like the name of some fashion brand whenever they're called together, "JAMES AND JUDITH".

PHASE ONE "Then who could he be ?", Ozar mused. "We can't hold back any longer", the commander warned, "else, our ships could get destroyed and the campaign will come to an end." "I already thought about that", Ozar affirmed, "then let's step it up a bit." *** Nomad watched the battleships of this army's vanguard fall back, he had anticipated something like this. Smiling to himself, he just wondered, what the hell were they about to bring forth. "What makes you so bold to stand in our way celestial being ?!" Nomad's grin widened, telepathy ! Someone must be there that has a significant amount of power, this was going to be interesting. "What makes you stand in the way of the APEX COSMA ?!" The voice questioned again. "Because I fell like it", Nomad replied. "I respect the fact that you are a powerful being like us", the voice continued, "so I'd advise you step out of our way if you don't want to get crushed." "What if I still refuse", Nomad challenged

"But did he ask for it ? Did he ask to be born this way ? Before he left do you know what he said to me ? "I wish I wasn't born mother, I don't want to live", that was what he had told me." "Listen Era", the male voice said, "his destiny is to achieve the unthinkable, it is that void, the realm of the unknown, a dimension of flesh and thought that drives the normal and average insane. Era, Kied can't be normal, your son can't be like others, he was destined for something else, something that even I can't understand." "But this socalled destiny is driving him insane."

PHASE ONE "Gora" THE FATHER sighed. "He made the choice himself", Levir recalled, "his arrogance will be his downfall." "What was he thinking ?", The Father played with his beard as he sat on his throne, "even with the liberation of the DARK LORD, Kied's power's may seem to have weakened, but in reality, they are going out of control." "His EMBRYO is reacting to the reemergence of his antithesis", Levir said. "The bad part about this is that, being out of control", the Father clenched his fist, "is being without control." *** An armour used by the dark child of war during the CARNAGE OF GODS, this armour was the subterranean form of Hypernox's being.

PHASE ONE "I told you Levir", the being said, "that we'll one day break free from the bondage of the CELESTIAL MACE." "And just as the FATHER said", Levir replied, "we finally broke free." "These realms before us", the being in a purple garment walked to the flower vase on the pedestal at the side of this hallway, plucking a petal, he squeezed it in his palm which ignited itself into flames, "shall burn for the glory of VERECA." *** Claws and chains entangled themselves as these two beings raged and raved, their chaotic battle of enflamed madness making the earth shiver and quake beneath the destructive might of their powers. They were gods at war, the very cause of it all becoming more vague with each passing moment. "Why hold back child of war", Gora challenged, "it won't do you any good if you silence the beast in you." "Shut up vermin !" Kied sent the chains flying at its neck.

PHASE ONE "Hasn't this story gotten boring lately." "It sure has." "From the first generation, we should be expecting something better than this." "Why not spice it up a bit ?" "A bit ?" The man sighed, "I'm pushing things to the limit." *** Kied's eyes blackened as he felt those sensations run down his spine, he could feel it, he could feel them calling him, it wasn't Hade Norx Zex this time, it was them, who were they ? "Show yourself !" Kied yelled. Looking around, he realized that he was stuck in this desolate realm of darkness, a darkness that was so dense that he couldn't even see his palms. "Your life", that voice called, "your very existence, is the birth of chaos itself." "Who are you ?" Kied called. "Me ? Who am I ?" The voice intoned. "This isn't the first time you've spoken to me."

His motion burned its way through distance and time, his sword and mace clashing with scores and at the same time sending scores falling dead, he seared his way through the enemy's ranks, that wall of halos and flames heralding him from behind burnt down the battleships, stellar tankers and battlecarpets of the foe. It was a surge of flames and steel and the barrage of armour and clanging shields rose to the peaks of skies of this asteroid, but he was beyond the limits of the present time. The vision of the atmosphere burnt its way through his armour, unveiling his face it revealed those burning eyes. Vision retracted as his swinging sword clanged, clashing with another foe, swirling around, he struck his opponent with his mace on the chest, sending him flying like a pebble int the air and crashing like a meteorite upon the earth. Bolting through the distance, his fluttering scarlet cape embroidered with the emblem of a six horned bull, cascaded like a waterfall of flames from h
