silver bloods of the vast lands

Assyrian disaster (1)

Long ago Force came to our world and merged all the scattered lands turning it to a vast unmeasurable land. It was finally named the vastlands for it was almost a world of it's own. The vastlands is a continent with various races, this large land was under the rule of the empyrean ranked empire known as Assyria.

The Assyrian Empire brought peace to this chaos infested lands for over a thousand years, even with its prominent name spreading deep into the outlaws and savages of the endless, but even such powerful empire could not touch an unknown land rumored to be the home of the dark creatures, beings of total nightmares known by the people as the dead lands of the vast lands, but it's real name well no one ever cared

War, the word forgotten by the people would soon be remembered as a bloodied maw opens in the shadows ready to feast, serect battles occuring without the knowledge of the people in the illusion of peace. Then it happened, a day forever craved in history with the blood of thousands, the fabled dark creatures joked as nightmares awoke and true to their name they were nightmares, more than 10 super cities, numerous towns and countless villages were swept in the storm of a bloody massacre with the deaths of millions, which angered the empire to sending her elite forces only to be meet with great defeat before the might of the dark creatures, their Force were strange and their abilities were totally different and unknown to the other races.

A tall man with long golden hair gazed at the sky, he frowned,"what happened to the sky?", He questioned the short man in black robes behind him.

Cedric, the short man said with trembling voice,"it's the void beings, they are plagues!, Their Force is not of a good origin and with their invasion our land will die and turn to their lands".

The golden haired man's brows knitted and he growled,"our land will become a void zone!, I will never let it happen!", He squinted his eyes while staring at the gloomy sky, the sky was covered in dark clouds with streaks of red, there was no source of light though it was day, Cedric a grandmaster of mystic potions and the emperor's adviser could feel the lands dying from the inner layers,'the void beings must be defeated', he said inwardly.

BOOM!, The huge door opened and a huge golden armoured warrior walked in with rapid pace, when he closed the golden haired man he knelt on one knee and pressed his fist against his chest, he bowed his head and said with a deep voice,"we lost, sire".

The golden haired man had not even responded but Cedric shouted,"what!".

The golden haired man ignored Cedric's disrespect and said softly,"how did you lose, Caine".

Caine shivered, the emperor was a very powerful man and Caine knew he was very angry, the emperor had never tasted loss in his life so his first loss annoyed him, he was the emperor of the Assyrian Empire, the empire that united the world, he was technically the emperor of the world so how could he lose to some wretched race from a small land.

"My lord those beings are not like us both their force and rune technology are completely different, their Force could corrode our Force we had to depend on our elemental Force users but we couldn't last for those beings are huge, bigger than a building, we couldn't fight such monsters!", Caine explained.

"Shut up, you lost and that's the only thing I can see, you should be hanged for endangering the realm by allowing those things to enter our land!!", Cedric screamed in anger, Caine news was heartbreaking, every second those beings stay in this realm their land dies.

Caine said nothing, he couldn't believe his brother could say such words, Cedric was his brother, while he was blessed with a powerful body his brother was blessed with the brains, they were never close but he was shocked to hear what his brother said, even though he was the emperor's chief guard his brother was more important, he waited for the emperor's decree, he tried to calm his heart but his back was already covered in cold sweat.

The emperor stared at Caine with a stotic face, he squinted his eyes,"summon the war council!". He said slowly.

Caine breathed out in relief, he knew the emperor had given him mercy, he opened his mouth,"I've sent the eagles sire, they should be close".

The emperor's lips went up a little,"you did well". He said and walked away with Cedric behind him.

BOOM!, when he heard the door shut Caine stood up, he found out his inner clothing was soaked in sweat, he hurried to his room to change.

COUNCIL HALL.

The emperor sat in his huge throne with two huge white tigers growling at both sides, these tigers were a rare species and is used as a royal symbol. He squinted his eyes while he stared at the people who arrived, they were the rulers of their various clans and tribes, top figures that even him the emperor rarely sees. He turned to his left and he was there at the dark corner in the hall stood a silver haired man, his entire being radiated indifference, although he tried to be low key everyone in the hall stared at him with vigilance, they knew an alderigde was dangerous even to his friends so no one talked to him to avoid provoking him by mistake.

The emperor coughed to get their attention, then he stood up from his throne and said gravely," my forces lost and the void beings has crossed the borders I called you all here to inform you of our plight, you must have sensed their strange Force haven't you?, This is not a time for joke I need the best forces of all races to unite and March to the borders as soon as possible!". The emperor knew it was almost impossible for the races to agree to sending their elite forces but from what he sensed they would lose the war without all races uniting to fight the void beings.

The faces of the top figures had different expressions some scowled while others sneered, they could send their normal army but their elites... Hump. The silver haired man turned to a black haired man with purple eyes, the black haired man also stared at him and smiled, he turned to a gorgeous woman with long purple hair and emerald eyes, she raised her brows but when she saw the silver haired man staring at her she nodded and nudged the blue haired man close to her, he didn't need anyone to inform him he already knew what to do, immediately the four of them walked to the emperor and knelt on one knee and said in unison,"we hear and obey, your majesty!".

Both the emperor and the other races were shocked since when did the blood race become docile and obeyed the emperor's words so swiftly.

A man who was half horse frowned and said inwardly,'what plot is this, I will never believe this is a coincidence!".

Tension arose in the room, even the guards felt suffocated, the emotions of the top figures could even affect the surroundings.
