Snippet #2731604

I held Atlas's hand gently as we listened to Sabrina and our new allies. I could hear pleased mummers from those around me and I smiled lightly, happy to hear that the allies that Atlas and Sabrina sought for were a success. When Sabrina mentioned that Atlas would speak next, I could sense a feeling of dread and hesitation from him. I blinked in curiosity before I looked up to listen to him but nothing could prepare me for what was said. My eyes widen in surprise and I looked over at Tryndamiere quickly. Him? Of all beings, why would Tempos choose Tryndamiere to be the God of War, Blood and Fire? I glanced over at Usha, who looked to have a slightly unamused look on her face. I glanced over at Sehanine and saw that she had fallen to her knees with her hands covering her face. I could clearly tell that not only was she devastated by the lost of Tempos but she seemed to be overwhelmed by something else as well. I could not go into much thought before I heard the clatter of armor falling to the floor. I turned and looked over at Pantheon and my eyes was filled with a look of sorrow. I turned my head away as the noise that left Pantheon's mouth, sent a rattling chill to my bones. Even after Pantheon left, I could not lift my head and the noise of the cries and shouts were mute to my ears as I heard Tryndamiere's voice in my head. "Pantheon, I remember you well. I remember driving those brands down your throat over and over again. I must admit I was impressed before when you survived the first round of brands, but to now learn your survived the rest. I do not know whether you are just too stupid to know when to die or if your will is truly that strong. Tell me dose it hurt to breath? To swallow? To even live must cause too much pain to live with, after all wounds that deep never really heal do they?" I completely understood where Pantheon's pain and anger was coming from. My head swiftly jerked towards Atlas when he slammed his fist on the table and said what most of us did not want but needed to hear. I looked down and I frowned lightly. To convince everyone to pray to Tryndamiere would not be easy by any means. Tryndamiere did not do anything to earn everyone's prayers but fueling his power was needed if we hoped to stand a chance against The Corruption.

When Tryndamiere moved over to Usha, she did not pay him any mind or attention. She could hear the mummers of distaste and disapproval but soon she rolled her eyes and stood up. "I will need prayers as well." She looked at everyone. "I know that I have not done much to earn your prayers but when it comes to your future and the future of Reinos, I believe we can all agree that we wish to see a future without The Corruption's rule in both the heavens and the land." She paused lightly and she glanced over at me for a brief second before she continued. "I do not asked that you just pray to myself and Tryndamiere. Whatever you pray for whether it is to seek help, answers, guidance, comfort or whatever. Pray." She turned her back to everyone and she looked over at Sabrina, Arlen and Leesha before she glanced up at the ceiling, looking beyond. "I believe that you mortals know that gods do not come down to ask for help but with the situation that we are in, know that we are asking for your help, not for our egos.." She turned her head towards Tryndamiere with a dark glare before she looked back up at the ceiling. "..or our show of power but because we are your last real line of defense. Should we fail in our duty as gods to protect and guide you mortals against The Corruption, it is because you mortals did not do your part." she said, her voice growing dark as her eyes scanned the room. "We are not asking for much but what we are asking for can provide what you mortals so desperately need right now whether you know it or not." She stood silently for a minute, her eyes meeting everyone's eyes before she sat down, looking ahead before her eyes fell on Sabrina. "Now would be the time for us to come up with plans and strategies on how you mortals can hold off The Corruption here on the lands while myself and the chosen ones do what we need to fight The Corruption in the heavens."
