Lucifer saw that Woodsong, on the map, had stopped being blue.
"Does that mean Asmodeus is gone?" He asked the Mentor.
"Quite the opposite. Asmodeus has finally defeated Lord Ronin, and has installed himself as master of Woodsong. Let us ensure his stay there is both short and uncomfortable." The Mentor instructed.
As he landed his Dungeon Heart in Woodsong, Lucifer saw part of Asmodeus' dungeon.
"Asmodeus is currently here with his minions. His power is impressive, and he holds the Portal Gem you desire." The mentor instructed.
Then Lucifer saw some new heroes in a pair of keeps south of the Dungeon. They wore white tunics with green undershirts and pants. They wore white sandals with blue straps and wraps on their arms, wielding bows. They had red hair and pointy ears. They were Elven Archers.
"But see, his dungeon's under siege by Sylvan Elves, who, though not yet alerted of your presence, will be most displeased by any interference. Both stand between you and the Gem. Somehow, you must break the siege, and destroy the beating heart of Asmodeus. Hurry now, for sure there's much work to be done." The Mentor added.
Lucifer built a Lair to the east of his Dungeon Heart.
He built a Hatchery to the north and a Torture Chamber to the west.
He then claimed Portals to the south and north and found four Mistresses inside, who quickly joined his forces.
He built a Training Room north of the Hatchery and a combination of a Library and a Workshop to the west of that.
Soon some patrols burst into the Dungeon and were slaughtered by the Mistresses.
"Speed is vital. You must raise a fighting force before the heroes notice you." The Mentor uttered.
Soon Bile Demons, Trolls, and Warlocks began entering the Dungeon.
"Nessissity is the mother of invention, so 'tis said, and you may find your needs addressed by Warlocks wise, who plow through ancient texts within your Dungeon's Library. Listen out for what they find." The Mentor advised.
Lucifer soon found a Gem Seam to the east.
He also found, near his southern portal, a box that reinforced his walls.
He then gained access to the Tremor spell, which allowed him to cause a small earthquake which weakened Dungeon Walls.
He then proceeded to attack a pair of outposts occupied by heroes and found two boxes inside. One gave him more mana, while the other made his creatures happy.
"Do not doubt that Hero forces mobilize against you, Lucifer, so be swift." The Mentor warned.
In another outpost, he found a box that healed all of his minions, and near his northern portal, he found a mana increasing box.
"Time is running out. You must strike soon or risk disgrace." The Mentor warned again.
In one last outpost, he found one last box that made his creatures stronger, then finally tunneled to the north.
"Remember well your mission, Lucifer- 'tis the Portal Gem you seek. It lies in the Dungeon Heart of Asmodeus- this, you must destroy."
Lucifer's creatures began fighting the Sylvan Elves and their allies, doing their best to fend them off.
The battle was hard fought, but in the end, the elves were defeated and captured to be tortured.
Asmodeus saw this in his dungeon.
"At last, the siege is lifted. I can come out and-" Asmodeus uttered.
"You can come out and die, Asmodeus!" Lucifer replied, and had his creatures attack Asmodeus' dungeon.
Asmodeus' minions fought well, but soon they all fell to the army.
"No... No! This can't be happening!" Asmodeus cried out.
"See you in the Void, Asmodeus!" Lucifer shouted as he destroyed Asmodeus' dungeon heart.
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! LUCIFERRRRRRRRRRRRRR!" Asmodeus screamed as he fell into the void.
Soon a Portal Gem appeared where the Dungeon Heart once was, and Horny claimed it.
A third part of the Horny Tasilman was also found in the ruins of the Dungeon.
The creatures soon invaded the surface world and destroyed all of Woodsong, claiming three more blueprints for Lucifer.
"Now we'll call this realm... Shadowforest!" Lucifer shouted.
The Mentor gave some closing remarks.
"Asmodeus thought himself secure, and the Sylvan elves had the weasel trapped. Neither could imagine what would befall them at your hands. Three parts of the Horny Talisman are now yours. Need I remind you, you can summon him in an emergency."
In Cherry Tree...
An Imp approached Nemesis again.
"Good news and bad news. Morgana killed Brutus."The Imp shouted.
He showed Morgana fighting Lord Brutus, a hulking man in yellow armor.
"I've got the perfect way to beat you, Brutus." Morgana uttered.
"You won't, Morgana!" Brutus exclaimed.
But then Morgana turned Brutus into a chicken and ate him alive, spitting out the Portal Gem.
"It might have been a bit cruel, but it was the best option!" Morgana laughed.
"Which leads to the first part of the bad news- some of your allies have decided to fight Morgana. Also, Asmodeus is dead." The Imp added.
"WHAT? SHOW ME, NOW!" Nemesis exclaimed.
He saw five Keepers fighting each other in Sparklydell. One was Morgana, but there were four others.
The first was a water elemental who took the form of an attractive woman. Her name was Raksha.
The second was a bearded man wielding a sickle with an hourglass attached to it. He was known as Kronos.
The third was a man who was half man, half dragon. He was called Drako.
The final was a thin demon wearing a red mask and a cape. He was called Belial.
"Curse this! Tell Malleus to attack and kill Lord Benedict of Cherish right now! I'm going to see if I can get my hands on Stonekeep by beating Lord Pureheart!" Nemesis exclaimed in rage.
