Disclaimer: I do not own anything from the Overlord games but I do own my OC, Overlord Zack and any other characters that do not appear in any Overlord games and that includes the expansions, I also own Calaria and any other places not in the Overlord games

Summary: The games tell the story of other Overlords but what about the first?. See how the First Overlord rises to power, begins his reign and wages war across the land.

''Testing'' = speech

'Testing' = Thought

*Testing* = Flashback

Daganth walked into the room and looked around, spotting Zack he walked over to him ''My Lord, we have finished the plans for the TowerHeart connection that will let me speak with you from the Netherworld.

Overlord Zack looked up from the table were a new design was place. ''Good worked Daganth, when I set off to Meadow Hills we will have to test it, but before I leave I need to finish this design for a transportation system''. Danganth nodded ''Very well I will leave you to it'' said the Dragon before he walked out of the room.

After 2 long boring hours Overlord Zack broke into a maniac like grin ''Finally It is finished'' declared the Overlord ''Now to test this design out and see if it will work''. He stood up and stalked out of the room and went towards the chamber that housed the TowerHeart to test his design.

Overlord Zack looked at the design for the Tower Gates, basically a glowing stone circle with the power from the TowerHeart, he had finished the design and he was now going to test it. If this worked then he could set up a transportation system that would let him travel to every area around the world. Overlord Zack looked at the 5 Brown Minions who seemed to be fighting or trying to eat each other, Zack couldn't really tell.

His eye twitched ''STOP MESSING ABOUT AND GET READY!'' roared Overlord Zack and the Brown Minions quickly stopped fighting and stood infront of the Tower Heart. ''Now'' said Overlord Zack having calmed down ''You are going to test this transportation method that, if successful, will transport you to Meadow Hills, If not you will die horribly'' Said the Overlord ''Now get going''

The 5 Brown Minions jumped up and down before screaming ''For the Masta!'' and running at the Tower Heart and being teleported to Meadow Hills. After a few minutes Overlord Zack viewed what had become of the Minions and saw that they were completely fine and staring at the Tower Gate while jumping up and down. The Overlord smirk 'It worked!' he thought before he used the TowerHeart to send him to the Tower Gate in Meadow Hills.

Overlord Zack appeared in a flash of light and immediately the Minions started calling ''Hello Masta!'' and crowded around him. After shoving a Brown Minion out of the way Overlord Zack placed a Brown, Red, Green and Blue stone on the ground and were quickly absorbed into the ground and 4 Minion spawning pits rose up out of the ground. The Overlord looked at the Brown spawning pit and willed 80 Brown Minions to come out of it. With cries of ''For the Masta!'' and ''For the Overlord!'' 80 Brown Minions jumped out of the Brown spawning pit and joined the other 5 Brown Minions.

After repeating the process with the other three spawning pits, summoning 80 Red Minions, 20 Green Minions and 15 Blue Minions the turned towards all 200 Minions. Overlord Zack sneered at what the Minions were doing, The Browns were play fighting with eachother, the Reds were throwing fireballs at themselfs and the Greens were rubbing some smelly plant all over their bodies, atleast the Blues had some dignity and were standing to the side and waiting for the Overlord to tell them what to do. 'Blues are the most intelligent Minion' thought Overlord Zack ''STOP MESSING ABOUT AND LINE UP!'' shouted the Overlord and all of the Minions quickly lined up in front of the Overlord.

''Now'' said Overlord Zack staring at the Minions with his glowing green eyes, ''Reds, Greens I want you to go and hide along the path that connected Evernight Forest and Spree and kill anyone who tried to pass,understand!''. The Red and Greens Minions nodded frantically and said ''Yes Masta!'' before running towards the path that seperates Spree and Evernight.

''Browns, Blues you are going to follow me to Spree, Browns will be at the front fighting and Blues at the back healing and reviving any Browns that die'' said Overlord Zack before he looked down at the town of Spree from the hill ''Spree will fall today, and either serve under me or be destroyed'' said Zack before he began to run towards Spree, the Minions trailing behind him.

Spree used to be a peaceful farming town that kept the local Halflings under control, but when the Halflings had made a alliances with the Ruborian Raiders and the Shadow Claws and received armour and swords they could use around 300 Halflings had quickly attacked Spree, which quickly fell under the assault and another 100 Halflings had quickly claimed the rest of Meadow Hills. Castle Spree was the only place they hadn't conquered and it had held out for almost two weeks before a combined force for 500 Halflings and 200 Shadow Claws had broke thought and killed Lord Spree and his family and solidifying their hold on Meadow Hills.

Now Spree was a slave camp, forced to mine metals for the Halflings, Ruborian Raiders and Shadow Claws, make food for the Halflings to eat and every now and again a slave was sold to a rich man or women or a high ranking Shadow Claw. Spree had a population of 56 Human slaves and 100 Halfling Slavers who were equipped with whips and small swords. Today was like any other a Halfling was whipping a Human slave and the other Halfings were laughing at the display, even the Halflings on the wall weren't standing guard they were just laughing at the whipping of the slave.

Overlord Zack stopped at the gate and looked at the top of the wall and saw the Halflings were laughing at something, possibly a slave being tortured if the screams were anything to go by. The Overlord took in a deep breath before he began charging up a lightning whip spell in his hands. After a few moments the charged lightning whip spell now looked like a miniature blue sun 'this is too easy' thought Zack, with a roar the Overlord threw the charged lightning whip spell at the gate and watched with sanctification as the steel gate and a good portion of the surrounding wall was blow into millions of pieces, as well as taking a few of the fat Halflings with it.

The Halflings on the turned to the remains of the gate just in time to see a man in strange armour and a small army of small imp like creatures pour through he hole were the gate used to be. Overlord Zack pointed his sword towards the Halflings ''KILL THEM ALL'' shouted the Overlord. Before the Halflings could react the Minions had charged at them, ''For the Overlord'' screamed a Brown Minion before he jumped on a Halflings and began stabbing the Halflings chest with its sword and biting one of its arms with its sharp teeth, after a second the Halfling was dead and the Minions got up and rejoined the rest of the Minion horde.

8 more Halflings met the same fate before the others began to fight back, unfortunately the Halflings were used to fighting weak Human slaves who couldn't fight back and wimpy elf's who could only shoot arrows at the Halflings who were on the wall and were quickly slaughtered, the Overlord and his Minions quickly pushed through Spree, killing Halflings left and right and suffering no losses on their side. After a few minutes Spree had been conquered and the remaining 11 Halflings ran to Castle Spree were the Halfling King Gobble and most of the Halfling's lived.

Zack had planned to quickly push on to Castle Spree and quickly conquer it but he was interrupted by Daganth who was speaking to him over the Tower Heart connection, 'Sire a group of elf's lead by a knight have just tried to reach Spree, the Reds and Greens attacked them but the Knight and two of the Elves managed to get through and are heading your way' shouted Daganth overlord the connection.

Just then the gate that faced the crop fields and Evernight forest exploded and only the edges of the steel gate remained. Two Elves dressed in leather armour and a tall Knight who had shining silver armour and a pure white cape with a broad sword attached to his hip. 'A Light Knight, interesting' thought the Overlord. The Light Knights were the elites of Heavens Peak, they were magic using knights that were the best of the best.

''Who are you!'' questioned the Light Knight. Overlord Zack stared at him with his glowing emerald green eyes ''I am the Overlord, ruler of Norgberg, conquerer of Spree and future vanquisher of the Shadow Claws!'' spoke Overlord Zack

''So you are here to end the Shadow Claws?'' questioned the Light Knight with a disbelieving look on his face. ''Yes I am, now leave before I kill you, I have other business to attend to'' said the Overlord. The Light Knight appeared hesitant to leave but saw all of his Minions and decided to retreat ''Very well Overlord, but I will be informing the leaders of the Guardians of the Light of your presence'' said the Knight before leaving the town and rejoining the elfs that had survived the Reds and Greens sneak attack and heading back to Evernight.

''Now with that pest gone'' muttered the Overlord. He ordered the Minions to start making repairs to the town and had a Tower Gate set up in the middle of the Town and after setting the Browns, Reds, Greens and Blues as guards of Spree he prepared to head back to the Netherworld when he saw the face of a girl he had met when he had stayed at Spree for a few days when gathering supplies to his journey, they had fallen in love when they had got to know eachother, he still remembered the day he had left Spree on his journey as if it was yesterday.

*Flashback*

Today was the day he left Spree to set off on his trek to Norgberg but he was going to miss Lucy, the girl he had fallen in love with. I stood at the gate with Lucy at my side, Lucy held his hand ''I wish you could stay'' said Lucy with a few tears in her eyes

Zack stared at her with love and sadness in his eyes ''I wish I could stay to my love but I must go to Norgberg'' Lucy looked down at her feet with a few tears escaping from her eyes.

He grabbed her chin and lifted it up so he could look into her beautiful blue eyes ''Know that I will return for you Lucy and that I will always love you, in this life and the next'' Zack said before he kissed her gently. The kiss wasn't passionate like some of their other kisses but it was sweet and gentle and let convey they love they had for each other.

He ended the kiss and looked into Lucy's eyes before saying ''goodbye my love'' and walking out of Spree, a place he wouldn't see for many years to come.

*End Flashback*

Zack stared at Lucy for a moment before he shook his head and walked towards her, grabbed her from behind and threw her overlord his shoulder. ''Hey let go of me!'' screamed Lucy who was hitting his chest as he began to walk towards the Tower Gate.

After stepping on the Tower Gate and being transported to the Netherworld Overlord Zack headed towards the private quarters, after arriving at the Private Quarters he placed Lucy on the bed. Lucy's eyes widened and show a fear, thinking he would rape her ''Please don't rape me, I'm saving myself for someone'' cried Lucy with tears gathering in her eyes.

Zack stared at her through his helmet ''I don't plan to do that Lucy'' said Zack

''H-how do y-you know who I a-am'' stuttered Lucy. Zack sighed before he grabbed his helmet and pulled it off and let it drop to the floor, Lucy gasped ''Zack''
