Mass Effect: The Return Of The Overlord

Prologue

inside a crumbling tower rested a old creature with the only light being from the eerie flow of dark energy flowing between a open pit in the floor and by the looks of it flooding right through the middle of the stalactite tower. While the creature itself seems to have frozen in time a pulse in the dark energy breaks the stasis placed upon the old creature. It slowly opens its eyes and looks around the room and smirks evilly.

the creature then declares "Minions the time for a new overlord has come!" he then jumps up with and energy that you would not believe something as old as this should have. And orders "Giblet! heat up the forge!" from alcoves all around the room small gremlin like creatures come out cheering like something good has come.

The creature called Giblet who looks slightly older than the rest of the minions goes up to the oldest minion in the room and says. "Gnarl the forge is fired up, you want Giblet to make Overlord's Weapons" Gnarl replies "not yet Giblet we must first find the master!" Gnarl then stands up on a platform near a decaying throne with flows of lava running by and orders "minions open the portal to the location of the overlord, The netherworld will know how to find our Master!" with that the pit in the middle of the room then starts glowing more than the ambient glow previously present was and Gnarl smirks thinking that nothing will stop the Overlord.

Gnarl decides that he needs to find out what has happened to the rest of the world in the 1850 years since there has been a overlord. And that was the overlord who brought the glorious empire tumbling down. He orders a minion to press a button on the wall and a hatch on the floor opens up and a pedistal with a thick book like object attached to it. instead of reading it Gnarl decides it is best to cheat and rests his Gnarled claw onto the book and absorbs the knowledge.

When he sees that after the fall of the last overlord and the collapse of the glorious empire the world regressed and become more primitive until new miniature empires rose which paled compared to the overlord's empires. But when he came across the British empire he smirked thinking finally the pigeons at least do something right a empire that spread over a major chunk of the world.

When he come further in the modern era he saw how advanced the world had come with its space travel, advanced weapons and even galactic travel through these mass relays. He smirked thinking about how much more of a vast domain the new overlord would be able to take control of. He smirked up to his eyes when the tower fed him schematics for the weapons and armour and the possibilities evil could have with these. With that he took his hand of the book and ordered.

"minions prepare to go through the tunnels the overlord shall rise again, at least there doesn't seem to be any pesky heros to defeat this time." the minions all cheered and 5 browns lined up then 5 reds lined up next to them with the occasional flame licking off of them, then 5 greens lined up turning invisible although the other minions turned there noses up at this and finally 5 blues lined up with the occasional flare of magic flicking off their hands. Although the browns looked at little impaicent with the fact that they kept fidgeting just waiting to be allowed to smash something, or even better kill some thing.
