Oan Mkoll's Story

Serrin's cold eyes fell upon the city of Merris below. He stood atop a clock tower, overlooking the large city. He watched the people below, with a hint of disgust. These people, who cared nothing for the lives of others, would do anything to make their own lives easier, even if it meant pushing all of their problems onto others. Rana appeared beside him.

"Oh, will you look at all the people. This city is quiet lively, unlike that town in the middle of nowhere you came from." She joked. Serrin turned his eyes to her.

"I do not like this place. Why are we here?" He asked in a cold tone. Rana merely smiled.

"Well, we need information..." She started. Serrin sighed.

"What kind of information?" He asked in an irritated tone. Rana gave a small grin.

"The kind that tells us who will try to stop us, and what they are capable of." She pointed towards the fountain. "There are people there who have abilities, just like you."

"What makes you think they will attempt to stop us? They barely have a grasp on their powers, much less what we are up to. They will prove to be no threat." Serrin said. Rana put her hand on his shoulder.

"They were given those powers for the soul purpose of stopping us. Even if they don't know, they will instinctively come against us. It's just in their nature to do so, so it would be smart to see what they are capable of now." Rana explained. Serrin sighed and snapped his fingers, his four undead servants appearing.

"Then let us crush them now to be rid of them once and for all." Serrin was ready to give the order to attack when Rana stopped him.

"Even you don't have perfect control of your power yet. Even if you sent them all, they would probably be defeated. Even though that doesn't matter seeing as they are immortal as long as you are alive, it is never wise to show all of your cards to your enemies. I suggest sending one to gauge the enemies' strength." Rana suggested. Serrin nodded.

"Shyu. Go and test their power return if you start to have problems." Serrin commanded. The legendary hero of Coora stepped forward.

"I understand. I will return shortly. Please wait for me." She said softly as she leaped of the building, landing in the middle of the fountain area. As she landed, a blizzard formed over the city, as snow raged to the ground.
