Old storyline; locked

The horde arrive on the hill with Bandon's horse now dead, the same as his master.
Bossimich turned to the Horde and spoke words of encouragement "We are here today to put this ravage dog down! We must bring home the strongest and bravest of our warriors. Some may die this day but for every one of us 100 shall fall." a huge cheer came from the Horde " Now we are prepared for death so if one shall fall, our bonds will not bring harm to us. Now we must charge and destroy this barbaric creature! Await my orders And CHARGE!" The horde charged off the hill straight into the ocean.
The horses swam fast and before the enemy knew it, the horde was at their gates.
A couple of minutes past and all enemies outside were dead. More to join the deathcount of Bandon and Salvanar. They got off the horses and swarmed the enemies inside the fortress quicly taking the first couple of rooms. A bloody battle ensues and after minutes, they are in the room Bandon rests. "Grawn, Balnook. Take Bandon home." The two warriors did as they were told. "Now to reinforce Salvanar!" Bossimich shouted and they then followed the warrior's tracks...
OOC: Why is noone posting today?!?!?!?!

The Duke of Travui stood on the hill overlooking the bridge that his army had built to reach the Golden Masks Island. He was worried about his daughter, who had been raped repeatedly by Bandon and his friends. 120,000 men were marching across the bridge to the island, along with 500 Warrior Priests of Empartheus. The first 20,000 men had already crossed the bridge and slain the members of the Horde who had been outside, the bodies had been burned, the ashes put in sacks, weighted with rocks and thrown into the ocean. The Grand Vizier had seen him personally about this, he was required to help the Golden mask, who was on his side and was protecting his daughter from the foul rapist called Bandon and his zombie horde, defeat his enemies. He watched the advanced elements of his army, the elites, best soldiers in all of Corbep, he was proud of his men, and the enchantments the Warrior Priests had put on them meant no enchantments or magics could affect them, and those they killed stayed dead, even if they were zombies. Their weapons and armour were enchanted as well, who ever was against the Golden Mask was in for a very, very, very bad day. Any elementals would be met with elementals as well, Warrior Priests existed for this purpose as well, magical warfare, he head only one elemental was in there whereas his priests had sent in 500 elementals.

Izath roared into life, the vigour of his reinforcements strengthening him. "Numbers account for nothing in the hallways of this fortress. The Golden Mask's armies are at a disadvantage!" He roared. Salvanar beat one enemy to the floor with his staff, then his craggy fingers released a bolt of lightning, causing some enemies to duck down. "I prefer the calm demeanour of the Corbep duelling classes!" He laughed. Izath Released a blindingly bright laser of light energy, frying those touched by it and giving those nearby an uncomfortable burning sensation. "I guess you like the idea of happy duelling classes where no one dies, Master." Izath commented. Salvanar impaled a man on a wall before turning to the elemental. "You must admit, it's much more civilised!" He yelled.

Salvanar saw the swarming army coming towards them. "A strategic retreat gains my favour, master." Izath said. Salvanar nodded. "Behind us are a couple of thousand hurly, burly, meaner-than-empartheus type men! Let's back down into the hall where the hordes of brutal killers makes a difference!" Salvanar and Izath ran into the hall, where lo and behold, the horde were waiting, drooling and awaiting blood. Salvanar never really got along with them, but he'd be damned if he didn't let them help him.

Bossimich walked in front of the horde and bowed. "We are at your disposal. But remember this is the last battle before we move to our natural lands." Bossimich turned to find themselves trapped. "You. Izath is it not? Teleport us out. We will not win here." Bossimich said. Then he realised. "Damn, reinforcments and thesa do so in their own will. Quick this will be a very short, fast, bloody death that awaits us."

Back at a graveyard, Balnook is standing above a newly dug hole along with 3 other cloaked men. Bandon had been placed in his grave and the mourners placed swords on his coffin as sines of respect. The men started to fill in the grave while Balnook searched for a suitable headstone. He found one and on it it had engravings of demons and angels as well as a gargoyle at the foot of the stone. He lifted it over to the grave and placed it at the head of the grave. The men did a quick prayer and stuck in torches around the new grave. One of the cloaked men waved his hand over the torches and they flickered to life with a unholy purple flame. "I shall stay in the graveyard and serve as a guard for Bandon's remains." Balnook said and the cloaked men turned and walked off. "If only you had survived..." He said...

Optimarus surveyed the Observatory. Most of the astroseers were watching the armies. He walked or to the huge telecope and looked through it.
He saw a great rock, hurtling through the vastness of the sky. It was the biggest meteor to pass Grennendia for hundreds of years. But if Optimarus had anything to do with it, it wouldn't pass it. It would destroy all life in Grennendia.

Izath smiled. "Let's make them pay for every drop of blood they spill, and we will emerge victorious." Izath created a sword from his light energies, the same two handed one that he placed on bandon's corpse. "I hope they're ready for hell."

Suddenly Izath heard a voice. "Izath, apologies, but we could not resist. It is I, your father, in the Elemental Realm. You have learned enough to hone your Light powers offensively. Start attacking instead of blinding. You are so much more powerful than you are making yourself out to be. Izath, inside you are as powerful as Bandon and Salvanar. Use the power of the sun! Use the ultraviolet shockwave I taught you!"

Izath saw his enemies approaching. "Master, it is time I started causing some pain. Have you ever heard of ultraviolet radiation?" Salvanar laughed. "I'm a mage, not an astropath." Izath rolled his eyes. "Defend me. I will charge my weapon. When I am ready, get the hell out of the way." Salvanar nodded. "Did you hear that, guys? Defend the elemental, run like heck when he's angry." Izath nearly facepalmed. "Ready, not angry." Salvanar laughed. "Sorry, Ready!"

Bossimich looked at him gone out. Has he got a brain. "You are a fool! Don't try to be a hero! Look at what happened to Bandon and you are nowhere as powerful as him. Right.. as you wish but if it fails then I will flick my wrist and we shall be lifeless." He then got ready for the signal. "Men! Face the others!" He yelled and just then the horde charged at the other side screaming war cries. Bossimich stood beside the elemental ready to run anyone who got colse, through.

Izath started sounding his native tongue's incantation.

Salvanar stood by his faithful elemental. Nothing would touch him while he was there.

"I hope you're ready for this, bossimich. We fight a fierce opponent here today."

"Heh, you know nothing of the sort. Try fighting a Dragon Lord, the largest in history or Bandon when he was having a bad day." Bossimich said above the battle behind them. 2 horde members got wounded, not much so that they could not fight but the horde was weakening allready....

The wall of men stopped, the might of Travui halted in the tracks and stood. "Hai, Calustus! For the King of Corbep! For Empartheus! For the freedom of the free peoples of Corbep!" The soldiers cryed, raising their shields to create a wall of enchanted equipment across the corridor, their was a loud rasping sound as the men of Corbep drew their swords. Then, a great light filled the corridor. Several elementals appeared between Izath and the men of Corbep. Two of them were dark elementals. The elementals gave a warning to Izath in the language of the elementals.

Salvanar turned to see Izath in great pain. "What is wrong, Izath? Why are you like this all of a sudden?" Izath tried to stand straight, but instead of holding onto the stone he used to support himself, he tore right through it. "Master, this energy is uncontrollable. So...powerful.....I cannot charge this much energy..." Salvanar held him up. "Then stop. Fire what you have." Izath smashed him to the floor. "It is not enough."

After a few more minutes of painful incantation, Izath's pain stopped completely. "Everyone, move." He limped over to the battle. "If anyone is hit by this blast, I gurantee they will not live to tell the tale. Everyone, leave. If you cannot do that, at least stay out of the way. After the blast, I will need you to defend me again for a few seconds."

More elementals appeared, some of them light elementals as well, who were at the front. Again the elementals gave a warning to Izath in the language of elementals.

Bossimich span around and ran, just finished dispatching a soldier. Realizing that he could not rescue the horde, he flicked his wrist and the undead fell to the floor, as bones. Bossimich then turned and at the same time turned to stone...

Izath walked right into the path of the enemies. "Hello boys." He said. "Time to burn."

Izath opened his body, and a light so furious erupted that Salvanar had to deploy a light shield and still cover his eyes.

When the furious energy died down, everything in the corridor had turned to tiny specks of charred dust. Izath was in the corridor still, but he was so weak his light started to fade...

"It was so...beautiful." Izath said, like a happy child. "What did you do!?" Salvanar yelled in horror. Izath turned to him. "I transformed myself into a star. A huge body of heat and light." Salvanar snapped. "I know what a star is!"

Izath smiled once more, before fading into nothing.....

Then the dark elementals returned with who had been in the corridor the soldiers. "Times up kid.one of things you need to learn is one shots never work. When you have been fighting as long as we have you learn that, alot." One of the dark elementals said. The soldiers called out their warchants. "For Cibhi, King of Corbep!"
"Looks like you screwed up." Said another dark elemental.
The light elementals gradually faded back into the corridor, "Nice try. You should have worked on it though."

Airien lurked in the shadows in the Observatory, watching optimarus.

Bossimich returned to human form and ran over ot Salv. "We need to get out of here. More are on their way now!" Bossimich then flicked his wrist again and the horde reappeared. "C'mon! We are leaving Grenenndia! Back to our homes where nothing can harm us!" Bossimich yelled and the horde cheered and started to escape. "Well, we leave now. Stay alive for when we next visit please?" Bossimich then turned and ran outside the fortress.

Outside they met the rest of the army. The horde had split and have allready escaped... Mostly. Some had been caught and killed but most were away from the enemies. Bossimich ran and jumped on his horse and galloped away over the newly constructed bridge to freedom...

Izath appeared in a perpatually black room.

"fool...." A voice said.

"Who's there?" Izath yelled.

"fool...."

"What are you?" Izath asked.

"........."

Izath turned to see an immense purple-and-black elemental.

"FOOL...."

The horde had met up with eachother in the wilderness and were onroute to the late Bandon's fortress. They had boats there. Tulak had left the Nord fortress aswell, travelling to Bandon's fortress. He knew that there were boats there and he wanted to leave this forsaken island...

Izath realised where he was. This was Abyssionis the Dark Citadel.

"M...master...please...I only did it for the good of the mortals."

The Dark Elementals appeared. "We tried to warn you, Izath. Turning into a star was a violation of the Kalivar, our laws. Now, you are at the mercy of my lord."

Izath bowed his head and placed his hands on the floor in prostration towards this everlastingly dark creature.

"No, lord, please...It will never happen again...please..."

The Dark Elementals could barely contain their vile laughter as the monstrous, city sized elemental showed itself.

A cold unnatural wind swept the area chilling the marrow in any mortal's bones. A dark shadow then cosumed all and then dark laughter rung out. A shadow flew over and then it formed into a man. His eyes were ablaze in black fire. When it opened it's mouth a dark whip formed from whisps licked the air around it. A secound shadow flew over to join the groutesque creature that stood infront of Izath. "Fool!" Boomed out in a demonic fashion. The voice sounded like a hundred men crying out in pain. The creature lit up to show blood drawings on his body. "You have called?"

The black elementals giggled demonically. "This little one broke the terms of the agreement signed in the Kalivar, Dark one!"

"Indeed, he's been a naughty little boy, haven't you, Izath!"
"But-"
"Yes, naughty indeed!"
"But I was-"
"Breaking the rules? Yes, we saw that!"
"No, I was just-"
"JUST WHAT, HMM!? JUST MINDING YOUR OWN BUSINESS? DO YOU EXPECT US TO BELIEVE THAT!?"
"Master, please, none of this was meant to happen."
"We warned him, m'lord, we did!"
"BUT HE DIDN'T LISTEN!"
"Master..I beg mercy....PLEASE...."

After the raucous chatter died down, the creature spoke again.

"Hahahahaaa! You puny creatures of the dark! You actually try to inpress me?! Hmm I must do something about that." He glided across the floor to Izath. "You... I hate you.. Lets get that out of the way." The creature's unnatural shadow formed around Izath and started to strangle him. "You know. This reminds me of a little mortal, he thought he was strong, too strong. He went off to kill his nemysis just to get killed. Remind you of someone?" His shadow released before it killed Izath. Anonymous turned to the others. "You are just as deserving of my wrath." Then tendrils burst out of the monster's body inpaling the elementals around him, killing them instantly. He turned to Izath. "I shall give you one last chance.. If you displease me again then you shall die. Now begone!"

"Your internal Bleeding has cleared up altogether" the Doctor said.
"You are healing at a tremendous rate, We can actually see your broken bones rejoining"

Xu then said,
"Then I'm ready to Fight."
Xu walked out of the Surgery, even though the Doctor tried to stop him. Coralie chased after him, too.
"Xu, you can't!" She said,
"I have to. I feel it in my Bones, in my dreams." he replied
"Then..I'm coming with you." she said.
"Horse or Dragon?" Xu said, in a happier tone.
"I'd say Dragon" Coralie replied.

Xu focused a beam of energy to the Streets of Loranalis, and his White Dragon arose from the Ground.
When they were on, Xu simply said,

"Take us to the Battle. Take us to Optimarus"

Then, the Dragon flew off Shreaking, to wherever the Golden Mask would be...

Verraidor had arrived at the battlefield.He looked down to see the Duke's army protecting the fortress.He smiled.How gullible.The Duke had started listening intently when he heard that his daughter had been captured.
"Hey Verraidor."Said a voice behind him."What're you doing outside of the palace?"He turned to see Cibhi sat on a horse behind him,with a rather large Norn on another one.
"I could ask the same of you.Maybe I should escort you back to the palace...?"
"No.I don't think so."Cibhi jumped off his horse and walked over."That is,not unti, you explain why the whole of Corbep is attempting to take me hostage and take the lives of my friends,our heros?"
"That was to get you back safely,the others would only interfere..."
"And why I have got word of a message in your quarters from the "Golden Mask",a man who I happen to know plans the destruction of our fair kingdom?"
"I...I..."He stuttered"Argh,you little twerp...He offered me everything!With no people left besides me,him,the people of his choice and the woman of my choice,we could have anything!And...I...I'm not going to let you spoil that."He stamped his staff into the ground,and it sunk into it slowly.
"Getting rid of your own weapon?Bad mo-"Then the ground started shaking.The enchantments on the staff activated,and it transformed.A metal sphere appeared around Verraidor,Cibhi and Heiwa,which then procceeded to go upwards on a large pillar of steel.When it stopped,a shaft of it grew up into a staff,which flew into Verraidor's hand.
"We fight in MY arena.Me versus you and your follower."He said."It's so unbalanced.I'd wipe the floor with you,so I'll go easy."

The Dragon dodged, as a Huge Pillar of Steel arose from the ground in front of it. It flew around it, and then saw the Fortress.
"There" Xu said, pointing at the Castle. The Dragon Swooped down, killing a few enemies along the way with it's tail. It stopped outside the door.
"Try not to let anything through here!" Xu asked the Dragon, as he and Coralie ran off into the Dark Corridors. When they came to a big hall, they stopped. There were many Corridors to go down...
