Warcraft Fel Azeroth: Rise of the Fel King
The story takes place in an Alternative timeline on Azeroth. Thanks to Garrosh interfering with the rise of the Old Horde and redirecting the Iron Horde into an alternative Azeroth the Warlord's Azeroth was never invaded. However another evil has risen from the Eastern Kingdoms. The Kingdoms of Alterac and Gilneas are on the brink of war due to King Genn Greymane and King Aiden Perenolde's hatred of each other.
Inside Alterac Keep, King Aiden and his loyal councillors debate whenever to strike against Gilneas or find a peaceful solution.
"We do not have the numbers to fight against Greymanes army. They are simply to advanced and greater in numbers than our soldiers" said Prince Aliden
"Nonsense, my king I received Intel from one of my spies in Gilneas that Greymane's army is exaggerated and ill prepared" said Councillor Prestor
"Maybe that's true but how do we know that Gilneas will not ally with our other enemy Stormgarde. Father we would be facing a war on two fronts, please set up a conference with Greymane so that we can avoid pointless bloodshed"
King Aiden sits on his throne, with his face he then begins to speak to his Son and Prestor "I need time to think. Leave both of you"
Prince Aliden and Prestor leaves Aiden's throne room both frustrated by Aiden's passive actions. As Aiden sits on his throne deciding what to be done a Crow from his throne rooms window flies and lands in front of Aiden. The crow transforms into a man, Aiden is shocked by the crows' sudden transformation he pulls out his sword and points it at the wizard. The Wizard casts a spell turning Aiden's sword into dust.
"Who are you, an assassin?" said Aiden
"No, King Aiden. I am Magus Medivh, I have come to pledge my serve to you" said Medivh as he kneels in front of Aiden.
"I thought the Kirin Tor refused to help us against Gilneas?"
"I am not from the Kirin Tor my King. I'm not only here to offer my service but I know who can help you defeat King Greymane and anyone else that will stand against you"
"You have my full attention Magus"
"You're future ally exists outside this world within Twisting Nether, He can offer you more power than you can hope to image"
Aiden is intrigued by Medivh's words but it not convinced "and why should I take your word for it?"
Medivh summons a piece of paper into his hands "read this"
Aiden takes the paper from Medivh and begins to read it. Aiden begins to feel fear the more he read the paper as it contains a list of Kingdoms that have aligned with Gilneas including the Kirin Tor with Genn Greymane's signature at the bottom of the paper as proof. Aiden drops the paper on the ground with him realising that the position of his kingdom is dire even if he attack first.
"Please! I need you and the ally from the nether to help me save my kingdom" said Aiden
Medivh smiles "I will recruit a small band of wizards to help me with creating a link between Azeroth and the Twisting Nether. But that won't be enough"
"What else do you need?"
"Send your son to Stormwind to recruit the Stonemasons Guild, there mason and carpentry skill will be used to construct a portal. But do not tell your son or anyone else about the true intention of this portal"
"If it will save my lands, I will not speak a word"
Days later King Aiden instructs his Son Aliden to travel south to hire the Stonemasons for 'defensive fortification' for the Keep. Aliden hesitantly but accepts the mission. Medivh travels to Kirin Tor and recruits one hundred wizards to be his new 'apprentices'. A few weeks past and Aliden arrives back at Alterac keep with the entire Stonemasons guild with him along with the Guild leader Edwin Vancleef.
Many months have passed and the construction of the portal is near completion. Thanks to Medivh's cloaking magic no outsiders can see the construction of the portal taking place. The Stonemasons believed that they are constructing a shrine for king Aiden while Medivh's 'apprentices' thought it was a new arcane tower being constructed. Councillor Prestor sees King Aiden and Vancleef making the final plans for the portal. With disgust Prestvor leaves the construction area behind Alterac keep. As he travels the halls of the keep Medivh stands in front of him leaning on a wall.
"Out of my way Wizard!" shouted Prestvor
"Why, I am welcomed to lean on these walls as I please" responded Medivh
"The King may have allowed you to stay within our keep but I however will not stand your meddling"
"Why? Does this goes against your original plan?" said Medivh as he moves away from the wall and walks slowly towards Prestvor.
"I…I don't know what you mean?" said Prestvor nervously
"Oh come now eyes of a mortal human can easily fooled but my eyes can see through your mask, Neltharion"
Neltharion felt fear then confusion as even the most powerful wizards weren't able to see who he really is, he then asks Medivh "Who are you really?"
Medivh responds Neltharion's question "Consider me a possible ally"
"What do you mean exactly?"
"I know you originally planned Gilneas and Alterac to wage war on each other and using the chaos of the war to burn the human kingdoms into ash than release your masters from their prison"
Neltharion is shocked again "How do you know about my masters?"
"I help sealed them away" responded Medivh.
The Area around Medivh and Neltharion remains silent and cold as if everything around them stopped. Medivh begins to speak again.
"If you help me I will help release your old masters and together we will purge this world and purge many other worlds to come"
Neltharion laughs "I've been labelled by my kin to be 'mad' But even I know that offer is insane!"
Neltharion in his human form breaths fire on Medivh, the wizard Medivh counters the fire and using a wind spell launches Neltharion into the air and out of the window. Neltharion spawns wings on his human body to avoid hitting the ground. The freemasons and the wizards including King Aiden and Vancleef see Prestvor flying in the sky above them breathing fire inside the keep. Medivh transforms into a crow and flies towards Neltharion and he continues to breathe fire. Medivh flies higher he then turns back into a human and channels all of his mana and fel magic into one attack. Neltharion sees Medivh in his human form and charges right at him, Medivh unleashes a powerful blast of magic hitting Neltharion and blasting him into the ground. Everyone around the construction sides runs away from the blast until Medivh stopped. The blast created a massive crater in the middle of the construction side. The Masons move closer to see into the crater when suddenly a massive black dragon appears from the crater. Badly injured thanks to Medivh's attack the Dragon flies back into the sky as Medivh lands back on the ground next to King Aiden.
"THIS LAND WILL SOON MEET IT'S FATE WITH OR WITHOUT ME" Screamed Neltharion as he flies away to recover.
Aiden turns his attention to Medivh "what has happened?"
"Neltharion, leader of the black dragonflight. He made a secret alliance with Genn greymane to destroy Alterac as your councillor Daval Prestor.
King Aiden in shock to the news he received from Medivh turns to Edwin "Tell your men to work double time. I will make sure your guild's payment is paid in double.
"I will tell the masons but let them rest for an hour before we begin I'm sure that dragon have scared half of my guild too death" said Edwin.
Aliden runs out of the Keep to see his Father in the construction. Aiden gives a son a hug "Thank the Light you're unharmed"
"I am fine Father, but did you see what happened?"
"A dragon attacked and manipulated us. He allied with Genn"
"Are you sure father?"
"YES I'M SURE. The sooner this portal is complete the sooner Greymane will answer justice"
Aliden looks at the towering Portal behind Aiden than looks back at his Father "What is this portal really for?"
Medivh who is behind Aliden looks at Aiden and shakes his head telling him to be silent. "It's a portal to construct a mage tower to help fortify the keeps defence" said Aiden as he puts his hands on his son's shoulder.
"You are a bad liar" said Aliden as he brushes off his father's hands. Aliden enters back into the keep with Aiden having a nervous expression on his face.
"You're son will ruin everything" said Medivh.
"Then what are we to do?" responded Aiden
"Leave that to me" said Medivh as he transforms into a crow.
One week passes and the portal is finally completed Medivh and his wizard begin to spell to create a link to the twisting nether. King Aiden, Edwin Vancleef and the rest of the stonemasons watches the spell. Just then a Wizard carrying a large bag exists from the keep and walks quickly towards the portal. The wizard puts the bag in the middle of the magic circle and pulls out a knife. Medivh nods at the wizard and the wizard stabs the bag resulting in blood spilling out of it.
Aiden and Edwin look in amazement as the spell finishes and the portal becomes active. Medivh turns to face his wizards and the masons and gives out a speech.
"Today, this world shall be reshaped. Today King Aiden and the rest of you will fulfil a destiny a millennia in the making. Today the Fel Dawn rises"
After Medivh's speech is given something begins to come out of the portal. A large green monstrous lizard like being with mighty tusks appears before everyone around the portal. People scream in terror while others including Aiden stand in amazement at the monstrous creature.
"Do not be afraid, this creature will bring you no harm"
The creature begins to speak "I AM MAGTHERION. I HAVE BEEN SUMMONED HERE TO HELP YOUR KING ACHIEVE VICTORY"
Magtherion orders one of the nearby wizards to bring him a cauldron which the wizard does instantly. Magtherion than cut's himself slightly using his own blade and pours his blood into the cauldron. Medivh approaches the cauldron and fills a cup with the demons blood, He then approaches Aiden with the cup of blood and Aiden takes the cup.
"What is this?" asked Aiden
"A gift, my king. Drink and no kingdom will stop you"
Aiden looks at the cup and at Magtherion than proceeds to drink the blood. Aiden begins to scream in pain as his body begins to change shape in front of everyone. Aiden's skin turned red like blood, his eyes turn from hazel brown too fire red. The bones from his spine and shoulder grew out of him like spikes and two horns from his forehead painfully grew out. Aiden eventually stopped screaming and stood back up for everyone to see, everyone gasped in horror too Aiden's transformation into a demonic hellish man.
Medivh spoke out too everyone "This is the power that waits for all of you. The power to bring those who want nothing but bring you pain and suffering, drink my brothers and sisters, claim your desitiny".
Edwin Vancleef walked towards the cauldron and took a cup full of blood and drank it transforming his body into the same hellish man like Aiden. Almost everyone drank the blood transforming them except for one.
"STOP! This isn't right! That is not a 'gift' It's a death sentence. You will all become slaves to this demon and that hellish creature. I speak the truth" said the wizard.
Aiden turns to Medivh, he nods at Aiden then Aiden begins to use his new power at the wizard that spoken out.
"SILENCE!" shouted Aiden, just then Demonic energy came out from Aiden's hand, the energy surrounds the wizard and the wizard's soul gets ripped out of his flesh. The Wizard pleads for help from the masons and wizards but to no prevail, as they only watch as that wizard's soul is devoured by King Aiden and the body is engulfed in green flame. Aiden felt his powers grow with the consumption of the wizard's soul, Aiden laughs manically as he feels this gift shows that no army can stop him.
Aiden gives a speech to everyone near the portal "Behold! This is what we can achieve. We will become the new masters of Azeroth! We will reign Supreme!"
Everyone cheers while chanting "HAIL KING AIDEN"
Edwin kneels in front of Aiden "Arise Vancleef. You will no longer be a guild master for today I, King Aiden appoint you as the Highlord. The might of Alterac"
Edwin stands back up "I will fulfil your commands my king and so will my guild"
Medivh approaches the two "You two are the vanguard; this world will kneel to the Legion once and for all"
"FOR THE LEGION!" shouted Aiden and Edwin.
As the cheering continues a Fel-human peaks into the brown bag too see the body of Prince Aliden. Magtherion knowing that the Fel-human will tell King Aiden and possibly ruin the plan stabs the fel-human and burns the fel-human and the dead princes body to cover the evidence.
In the days that followed the newly declared Fel-King Aiden and his Highlord Edwin Vancleef began to convert the people of Alterac into the Fel-humans. King Aiden eventually massed a large enough army of Fel-humans, he and Highlord Vancleef besieged the City of Dalaran. During the siege spies from the Kingdom of Gilneas sees the monstrosities of the Humans of Alterac with the Fel-king leading the attack on Dalaran.
"This is bad Alterac is attack Dalaran, it looks like they're holding fine but I don't know how much longer" said the Gilneas spy
"Lord Crowley we need to go back to King Greymane immediately. If Dalaran falls most likely King Aiden will attack us too"
"You're probably right Tobias. I just wish we can do something here, right now" said Crowley
"I do too, but all we can do is warn Gilneas about this"
Crowley and Tobias leaves to warn Genn about the Fel-Humans.
Meanwhile in Dalaran during the siege, Archmage Kel'Thuzard attempts to enter the City's sewer system before being spotted by a Kirin tor Mage.
"Archmage!" yelled the wizard
"What do you want?" responded Kel'Thuzard
"Antondas wishes to speak with you"
"Tell him I'll be right there. I just need to check the defense of the underground"
"offcourse Archmage" said the wizard.
As the wizard runs towards the Violet Citadel, Kel'Thuzard enters the ground. He avoids the detection probes and makes his way to the edge of the arcane shield that is covering the entire city. On the other side Highlord Vancleef and a thousand Fel-soldiers stand ready. Kel'Thuzard talks to Vancleef.
"You better keep your end of the bargain" said Kel'Thuzard
"My King will allow you to continue your research in peace and become a lord"
"Good, last I need is for that scumbag Antondas getting in my way again"
Kel'Thuzard successfully lifts the shield for Vancleef and his men and begins charging into the heart of Dalaran. Vancleef and his men slaughter anyone in front of them while disabling the shields allowing the main force to attack and pillage the city. At the top balcony of Violet Citadel Antondas gives an order to his apprentice the High elf Kael'thus Sunstrider order to take the remaining refugees to safety.
"Master, I refuse to leave you behind" shouted Kael'thus
"You must!The city is already lost, you need to save those that remain and warn your father, or else" said Antondas.
"You're right, my father needs to know. But I don't see why you have to stay"
"I will meet my end on my feet"
Kael'Thus leaves the room and prepares to evacuate the remaining people of Dalaran as Antondas exist the Violet Citadel to join the battle with the remaining few mages left. Hours pass and the City of Dalaran is in ruins, the remaining people of the city are captured or killed. Antondas who is chained up and brutally beaten is brought in front of Fel-King Aiden and Kel'thuzard. Antondas looks up and sees his former friend Kel'thuzard standing above him.
"You have betrayed us" said Antondas softly.
"You betrayed me first" replied Kel'thuzard.
Aiden sucks the soul of Antondas out of his body, increasing Aiden's power even more. Aiden turns to Kel'Thuzard and says "You have proved yourself worthy. For that you can have the body of your former friend and given the title of Lord of the Arcane"
"And you promise me to continue my work" said Kel'Thuzard
"Offcourse, your work after all will prove useful in the long run"
After the fall of Dalaran Lord Crowley tells about Alterac and of the Fel-humans to King Genn Greymane back in Gilneas. Gwnn sets up an emergency meeting with the all of the kingdoms of the Eastern kingdoms within Gilneas city. Thanks to the testimony of Lord Crowley and High Elf Prince Kael'Thus the Kingdoms united to Form the Great Alliance. With the Alliance formed only time will tell if the actions of the Alliance will bring an end to the Fel-King Aiden and the Fel Empire.
