The BloodVaine EpicChapter 1: Discovery
Lord Void returned to his quarters, poured himself more wine and began pacing, contemplated the certain recent events. He had been this close to unleashing the Eroth Gamus upon the world and his chance had slipped though his fingers!
At least I still have the Eroth Gamus itself and the Twin Pendants... he consoled himself as he opened the cupboard to look upon his prizes.
He froze. The cage that had held the little lizard that was supposed to be the Eroth Gamus was gone, as were the Pendants. Someone had stolen them.
Events flashed before Lord Void's eyes. He knew who had them.
BloodVaine!
Lord Void remembered BloodVaine well. BloodVaine had been a companion of his, a powerful necromancer who had no home to call his own, though Lord Void suspected he had come from the Rainbow Lands of Knight's Kingdom II. BloodVaine was powerful, extremely powerful. He was an expert Dragon Master, for Lord Void had taught him himself. Lord Void ran his finger along a line of books, searching. He found the one Majisto had read from and wrenched it off the shelf, leafing thought it quickly. He found the passage that Majisto had read from earlier and read it out loud to the empty room.
“...And so the lord shall find the single eye,\
And the loyal one shall burn, and the lord lose what he values most,
For the one eye will not comply,
The king will come, and arms exchanged,
Blood will flow again,
An elk will rise, and meet a bull,
And the necromancer will return,
With the Eroth Gamus at his side
A loss will become a beacon,
And unity achieved between a pair…”
Lord Void stared at the words ‘And the necromancer will return, With the Eroth Gamus at his side’
This is not good... thought Lord Void.
Lord Void was just exiting his room when Caimlin approached him. Caimlin stepped back and bowed.
“Milord.” he acknowledged humbly.
“Good afternoon Caimlin. I will be away from the Fire Breathing Fortress for a while. Contact me via relearn if needed.”
“You won't be nearby, Lord?” asked Caimlin, puzzled.
“No…I’m going to visit an old friend…”
After talking with Caimlin, Lord Void left exited the Fire Breathing Fortress and began to walk. He would use no magic is unless he had to, for wielders of magic could only detect one another if they use magic. Lord Void was not keen to alert his position to BloodVaine.
