The Darkness Of Flame

Introductions Are The Things Of Kings

This story is a story about a warrior. A warrior who found herself a little different than the rest. A warrior who was a mutant. A warrior of the flame. She called herself Pyre, after the darkness of death and after the beauty and consummation of the flame. For Pyre herself caused many funeral pyres to be lit in her wake, mostly of those unfortunate souls who had decided to cross her, or a man who lacked enough intelligence and tried to approach her. Many men had tried to approach her, for she was more beautiful than all of her race, her hazel eyes were like the sea, and they often changed colors to match her disposition. Her locks were a beautiful blonde, but they turned to flame when her powers consumed her. She was an Elf, of the age of the great Journey Of The Ring, she had lived past Sauron, past the age of most men, and is now living in the age of our time.

Pyre had lived most of her life alone, and she considered herself dangerous to all who knew her, which was not many since she made it so she was not ever known. By anyone. This was partly because of the night she had discovered her mutation. The One Ring had been destroyed, and her city was celebrating the destruction of the evil. She was happy then, she was married to her true love, and was probably the greatest of warriors in the land. That night during the celebrations, she was kissing her husband when her body burst into flame. The flames destroyed her house and her beloved. Her husband screams still wake her up at night, for she still remembers it as clear as day. She has refused to love since, even though her powers are now under her control. She's beautiful and dangerous, as are most things that are beautiful in this world.

Now, dear reader, we come upon our dear Pyre in the year of the present. She's endeared many hardships since her time, and along with technology Pyre has herself advanced as well. She's learned the new ways along with many others, and her ability to blend in with humans is her most treasured skill. Of course her skill of killing is the most studied and perfected. However, it comes second only to her ability to disappear at will. In the present, our dear Pyre has encountered some trouble. She has been tracked by some mutant hunters out for self profit. Even with her combined skills of Mutant and Elf she was helpless to save herself. Her story begins with the capture of a beautiful Elf Maiden, a powerful Mutant with powers beyond Hell's wildest expectations.
