Waves of Darkness silently pulsed through the veins of the world. Ever so slowly its influence had begun to show. Monsters stirred. Wicked schemes were in the works. Some had already taken shape. Unknown evil had taken refuge there.
But this was not a new evil. This evil had existed for a very long time; keeping to the shadows and remaining unseen by all. It had not been idle. What began with two had grown not only in number but also in power. But, as was common with seekers of power, what they had was never enough. That search led to an item of immense power. And of course, that power was to be obtained to serve those who would abuse it. However, it is also common that a well-laid plan not go as smoothly as expected. The world was not without a defender. Because of his interference the great power was lost, both to the abusers and defender.
Lost? Or simply, temporarily misplaced? They would remain on this world until it was found and reclaimed. Complete control of the destinies of any world was easily within reach, so long as that power was obtained. So they would search, no matter how long it took.
They would search, no matter what…or who got in their way.
