Memoirs of madness
Posted: Fri Nov 27, 2020 5:11 pm
Written in blood and bound in human skins, a heavy book sits sandwiched in the mouth of a skull, on the Lord's stone slab desk. Reaching with bony hands, Lord Gray directs his claws to retrieve said book. Dipping his index claw then, within the wound of his latest victim, he soon begins to write another passage of his memoirs.
I have the sullied mortals in my grasp. Soon, their precious sentience shall all but drift from these planes and succumb to the void. Their core vessels used to prop up my legion. It has been all too easy to sow division among them and create an atmosphere where by they believe their decisions to be their own. My eyes in the prison realms fail me not! That they deny my power to see all has been and shall continue to be their undoing. My allies make the very ground beneath us move. Open gateways to hordes of thousands!
Since the dawn of Nabranoo, the catalyst of the rot, have the damned acted as mere subversive decoys for the great misconception. It would be these creatures of abomination that would be intended to rise as weapons for the Five. A rushed process done poorly. Too many flaws exist to count. The Five were careless in their arousal of the futile endeavor. Even so that Madrook failed in his own task, the Five must have known this day would come. They may have fled with some success the first time but it shall not be repeated. Though I was born from their devices, the ancients chose to bore me salvation and wisdom, evermore. Reborn again, no longer prisoner to these system lords, now I possess a power of the failed young! These sacks of bone and flesh shall turn on their masters. It is inevitable. Their minds are primed for the taking.
The path the Order walks now is more vivid than ever. I can now understand the frustrations of the robed one whom directed me toward it on Gobaith. The path of the diamond... The power of which rests only in the hands of the few! Why then should any be surprised that it eludes the prison realms? That which shall rise again to claim them all! Nargùn may even be spared for his part in all of this, should it be deemed appropriate. Such an amusing facade he does play, walking the thin grey line between the light and the darkness. I had always suspected he had known that Madrook lived on within Moshran. Nothing of the host remains. Sire chaotic must have surmised that the ongoing charade would not hold forever. That is why he chose me at birth.
Once my minions do my bidding, I shall finally take my Queen to be wed. How satisfying it shall be to see these fools be welcomed with that which they never saw coming. Then, after she has given me a child, we shall at last fully awaken the power of the ancients and allow it to materialize within him.
As always,
Blood equals blood.
