Hello everyone. This is going to be a long one, so try not to lose patience! Oh, and I promise all of the chapters are going to be way longer than this. This story takes place months after the fall of the Brotherhood of Evil, so I figured that I would leave some time between chapters and do short stories about the time inbetween! I hope you all enjoy! Oh, and this story integrates parts from another story I wrote. I combined characters and made some fit right in. Don't worry though! I made sure not to change anything vital!
From eternities womb
Five beings rose
And from five realms
Each sentient chose
'It's quiet,' the monstrous dragon of time thought to himself, 'far too much so for it to be anything good.'
With his eyes, he gazed out to survey the tiny specks of light that were every existence in his realm. With his mind, he got much more detail. Every living thing, every non-living thing, and every soul traveling to and from the void. All at one. He sensed it all. Life and death. Good and evil. Large and small. Hot and cold. Balance.
Silence.
Peace.
His eyes closed, and Alkolon Darkfire, Lord of the Continuum, calmly went back to his meditation. His mind had been troubled ever since the demon-born, Trigon, had broken through the dimensional barrier and invaded his realm. It was right around 2 decades ago now since the Church of Blood had betrayed their own existence to allow the demon passage.
Chromerium, the Pure
Ruled Light's perfect world
He had broken the pact. He had risked another Great War. Why?
And Trigon, for his evil
To the Darkness he was hurled
The dragon's eyes snapped open once more. There was a looming presence; something he just couldn't shake…
Geovorix was of matter
Thus Matter he became
Trigon's invasion left his universe in ruins. Millions of worlds corrupted. Millions more burned to cinders…
And Netheria, born of energy
Found her way to her reign
Every moment since he has cast Trigon back to the depths of his void was spent in meditation. The very core of his being hated his demonic brethren. He hated that even in his own realm, in the apex of his power, the vile hell spawn nearly destroyed him.
It would not happen again…
Alkolon Darkfire, dragon-born
Time's ebb, to him, gave rise
Took his place in the multiverse
The last one of the five
And there it was. He felt it, he knew it, and there was no mistake about it. The presence of pure darkness. Trigon, it seemed, was willing to try again. As if a gun had sounded, the great dragon snapped out of meditation and flew across the darkness of the Continuum, determined to find the source and expel the bastard demon from his realm once and for all.
The dimensions had their guardians
All existence they foreran
Gates were sealed, doors were shut
And the universe began.
Hahaha sorry for my corny poetry! I suck at poems, but oh well. I'll try to have the first real chapter up as soon as i can, but keep an eye out for other short stories to give you some background on this one!
Oh, and of course, I appreciate any constructive comments!
