Snippet #3797

The occasional cackling and popping of the violet lightning and fire was all that disturbed the evening air within the spacious room only occupied by a secular being. One bench sitting in-front-of a stone fireplace with the figure upon it was all the stale brick room contained within its walls. An unadorned appearance settled upon the youthful facade as he stared into the purple fire that consumed nothing within the fireplace. The lightning and fire that coursed over the skin of such a being troubled him not or the bench he took space upon.

It remained like this for much of the evening until a smile crossed what now appeared a malicious face. Standing erect the being raised his right hand into the air as violet lightning ejected from his hand to strike a statue’s metal sword. The sword suddenly surged forward as if wanted to fling itself from the statue. A series of clicks sounded immediately after as an area of wall beside it slid open. Moving forward, the being walked through the now exposed doorway with his right hand still raise and just as his hand passed the sword, it followed in movement. As if it the sword did it on its own it moved back into its original position, a series of clicks sounded, and the door slid shut behind him.

Walking along the dark corridor, save the aura of his powers, gave the being much time to ponder upon the events that had been planned for so long. None knew of the power behind the evil of an empire that knew no bounds. None knew of he who controlled a power that kept the true king upon the throne. A malevolent smile crept upon the beings face as he knew things others had no clue about.

The thoughts came to an abrupt end as he paused before a large stone wall. It appeared he was at the end of his path with no choice but to turn around, when suddenly gears clicked and the door slid open. Stepping forward the man stared at the sitting figure of another being he knew oh so well, Genox. Another set of gears clicked, the wall slid shut, and the being strolled over to the new ruler with a visage of no emotions.

The violet fire and lightning increased its movements upon his exterior and the cackling became louder in multitude. Linking his fingers behind his back, Gavin spoke, “Genox, it appears you are whole again. My men remain hidden away from the world yet in plain view. The time is coming when I shall unleash fury upon the people. It is promise you made to me long ago, or have you forgotten such a thing?”
