Eternal Requiem
Chapter 4: Pasts Unforgiven
They took everything from us.
Nothing is sacred to us to anymore.
Will forgiveness ever reach our forsaken minds?
Never...
It was long ago, when the Well of Eternity was still pure. My family was so dear to me. But no force on this earth. Not the Light. Not Elune. Nothing. There was nothing I could do to save them. Those vile demons came and everything was crushed. They took everything from me. My home, my friends, and even my family. All lost to ash and flame. They tortured me. Beat me. Blinded me. When they were banished from the world, they took me with them. My old friend, Illidan Stormrage, had been locked away. For centuries I was trapped within that cursed realm. There was no way out. At least, not then. I saw I rift open, and they demons flocked to see what it was. They ignored me for a long time, long enough for me to escape. I snuck through that rift. Thrown through time and space, I was placed in a world of red sand. Around me green-skinned men with large tusks enveloped the land. They were savages and brutes. Monsters alien to me. But, then again, I was alien to this world. They marched through portals scattered across the crimson lands, fighting off what appeared to be humans on the other side.
I made a mistake sleeping in that world, for a terrible creature found me. It was much older than the others, his hair grey and in his hand was a staff. There was something essence about him. It was so similar to that of the demons that I hated him so bitterly. He cast a spell upon me with an artifact of arcane power. I was already consumed with hunger for mana after being exposed to the corrupt Well of Eternity, so this was to much. This must have pleased the old one, for he let me leave. But I could not leave. I had to destroy that orb and absorb its magic. My hunger was too unsatisfied. So later that night I stole the object and absorbed it, taking in all its power. Then I realized that these foul-smelling, warmongering, green men, these 'orcs', were imbued with those demons' powerful design of chaos and magic.
I felt so strange. Rage took me over, and when I awoke, I was on Azeroth again. Looking around, I saw I was before one of those portals. Many bodies, both human and orc, laid around my own, charred and scarred. Hate filled my mind for those orcs. They were using the powers of those who took everything from me. Now things are different. Their power is my own. The tables have been turned. Immediately a plan hatched in my head. With these powers I would bend the minds of the fools of this world. They would see my power and worship me though I were a god. A new world order would become my own, and those foul creatures would pay for their pact with such beings as the Burning Legion.
By my blade all the allies of demons shall fall. They will claim no more hopes. No longer will they look upon me as a victim. I shall use their own dark, twisted powers against them. They will grovel with mercy before I deal them the lethal blow to their kind. But that is only the beginning. All who have been in contact with those cursed demons and the allies of those will know my pain.
Through years of observation, I have marked all my enemies. The trolls of Darkspear. The tauren of Mulgore. The forsaken undead of Tirisfal Glades. The orcs of Azeroth. Even the Lich King and his Scourge will meet the receiving end of my blade. And I will not be alone. These fools of the Alliance have seen my vision of peace in this world and have agreed to accept my incredible power. Of coarse, action speaks louder than words. With my 'abilities' I have shown the leaders of the Alliance that mine is the true light! My dreams of an invincible empire will soon be realized! All things mortal will bow before my god-like might! And perhaps, once I have grasped the whole world in my hands, the Burning Legion themselves will pay for their trespasses. The journey will be long and hard. But it does not matter. With the gift of the Aspects on my side, I have all eternity...
Author's Note: I know I have not mentioned anything about Darithal's past, so I thought that maybe this chapter could clear things up! If there is anything I may have forgotten to mention, then I am sure it will be answered later on. I am always updating, so if you are interested in this story, you will be well rewarded if you stay interested. Until the next chapter, peace out!
