Prologue
Darkness loomed over the dark tower of Dertah; faces of tormented people where engraved into the towers structure, winds howled around the venumus lands of Marter. The faint sound of marching footsteps could be heard, over the stony hills a band of Elven warriors appeared marching towards the Tower, their blades gleamed in what little sun light could pierce the dark clouds, their spears held high with pride. A young Elven captain marched a front of them, he raised his hand and the army stopped dead in its tracks with one quick motion he turned to face them with a slight glare he told them
"My brothers this marks a grim day in our history for we are about to storm the dark tower of Dertah"
the captain turned from his Elven brothers. His foot took one step forward to walk on ahead
"my lord why are we the ones to fight in this battle? Why aren’t the humans or Makons fighting along Side us as well, I thought this battle would determine the fate of all races so why are we the only ones to fight!"
the captain turned around ready to Speak when he was cut off by another voice
"captain Lolindir I shall answer that question"
a tall fair male elf walked out from behind one of the rock’s. Upon his head there lay a crown, Lolindir bowed his head at the sight of this man
"my king"
the man walked over to the young captain
"Lolindir call me Dinendal"
the Elven warriors lay silent. The king stood in front of them his back straight, his eyes glowing
"we are the ones who Are fighting because only we can pick the book up without being killed by its dark aura, the humans are to busy with their own battles and the Makons Will only appear in great times of need"
a faint voice could be heard from behind the first row of warriors
"but my king if he is as powerful as you say And he has the black book in his hands how will we win?"
"I have fought against Kardem before and I have survived his powers, the only thing you Have to fear my brothers are if we do not defeat him here".
The Elven army began to march once more with king Dinendal leading the fight, the sky Began to rumble, lighting struck, amongst the shadows a pair of bright grey eyes could be seen watching the Elven army matching towards the dark Tower. The eyes moved out of the shadow to reveal a medium length figure standing to the left of the Elven king and his army. Dinendal could sense a Change in the flowing aura around him, his foot steps began to slow down until he stopped
"Kardem I sense your ugly presences, show your ugly Face"
the figured walked out of the shadows his face wrinkled, his eyes flowing with pure evil
"Dinendal why do you come here?"
"Do not play games With me you know why we have come"
Kardem reached into his robes, slowly pulling out a black tattered book. Kardem began flicking through the Pages
"Kardem i'm warning you by the kingdom of Trulin and over my dead body I will not let you turn this world into your evil and darkness"
an evil grin came over Kardem's face, a hard wind came out of no where, it grew and grew becoming stronger as words from Kardem's mouth came flowing Out, Dinendal drew his sword and charged head on at Kardem, Lolindir held the army back as Kardem placed the book back into his robes while Drawing his blade from underneath his robes.
Lighting struck as both Kardem's blade and Dinendal’s blade met each other, there they stayed in a dead lock of blades waiting for the other to make The next move, Dinendal pulled back taking a swing at Kardem, he blocked it, their swords met once more Dinendal couldn’t get a good strike in
"Lolindir surround your men around us, do not let him escape!"
Lolindir placed his hand on his chest
"of course my lord"
with this he nodded and the Elven army surrounded Kardem and Dinendal. Their blades met once more but this time neither one pulled away to attack once more they where Locked, Kardem could be heard muttering something, he placed his hand upon Dinendal's armoured chest, Dinendal was sent backwards rolling on The floor until he stopped, there was no movement from Dinendal
"do... do you think that some cheap magic will stop me?"
Dinendal said climbing Slowly to his feet wiping the blood from his mouth. Kardem began to laugh
"I had forgot the last time we had fought, you wouldn’t stay down, you think Just because you have survived some of my worst magic and curses that is going to save you from today"
Dinendal began to speak but this time it Was not of the human tongue but of the Elven tongue
"eiwl ishta surwar!"
little sparks of light began hovering around until they where pulled towards Dinendal's hand, more and more light gathered onto Dinendal's hand. Kardem looked slightly interested
"I see you have learnt a new trick no matter
it will not save you"
Kardem formed a hand seal and began to chant words in a language long sense pasted
"ahaway evilre"
dark energy could be Seen gathering in Kardem's hand both stared at each other until they knew the time was right. Dinendal thrust his hand forwards and the light shot Out from his hand and headed towards Kardem. Kardem stood still the dark energy was sent towards Dinendal, rain began to fall from the dark Cloudy sky, both types of magic met in the middle, the light passed straight through the dark energy causing it to separate and shot off in all different Directions the light continued its path which made impact with Kardem sending him into some of the Elven warriors causing them to hold their shields In front of them, bracing from the impact. Kardem lay on the ground his finger twitching, Dinendal stood breathing heavy
"your right...I did learn a new trick Kardem...this is the end of your plans"
Kardem's body lay on the rough ground not moving only the wind making his robes flap in the wind, Lolindir stared for a moment
"surround him make sure he is died"
shadows appeared underneath Kardem and began to swallow him, Lolindir drew his Sword but by the time his sword met the ground Kardem had disappeared.
Lightening struck across the cruel lands of Martar, Kardem stood a top a mountain cliff chanting words which no elf could understand, words from an Ancient language long sense pasted, Dinendal an Lolindir looked up at the cliffs edge. The ground began to shake beginning to crumble and split open, The ground sank back into the earth, the Elven warriors scattered and divided in numbers, Lolindir watched the ground as a massive crater appear From the deep dark earth. Kardem looked down to Dinendal
"for your mistakes your people and you shall die a horrible death, say hello to the Seventh ancient daemon the Halafer!"
Lolindir walked closer to the giant crater not hearing Kardem's words he held his blade tight in his hands, the Only sound Lolindir could hear were the small pieces of rock falling down into the black abyss. Lolindir slowly stepped towards the edge of the crater His feet separated he slowly lent forward, during this time Dinendal was ran towards Lolindir shouting something,
"Lolindir get away from there!"
Lolindir looked around hearing aloud voice he couldn’t make out what was being said
"Lolindir get away from there now!"
as Dinendal shouted a Large tentacle came oozing out of the crater. The large tentacle came slamming down towards him, he was save by an Elven warrior tackling him away Causing the warrior to be crush under the weight of the tentacle, Lolindir lay on his back when Dinendal held his hand out to help him up, Lolindir was Pulled to his feet. A wave of arrows where fired at the ancient daemon, some of the Elven warriors launched their spears at the daemon but all proved Useless, it had no effect, this enemy was to strong, Kardem was laughing at there foolish attempts at hurting the daemon. Once more he began to read from the book, once more the ground shook, small patches of dark cycles filled the sky, small daemon looking creatures came flying out, from the Ground skeleton warriors rose, out of the shadows banshees appeared, out of the rocks giant skeleton orges smashed their way free from the stone Prison. The Elven army was completely surround Dinendal turned to face Lolindir
"I am sorry my friend but it looks as if this time I have lead you Into a massacre"
Lolindir placed his hand on Dinendal's shoulder
"my lord you have yet to lead us astray we all believe in you and if it means dying By your side then I would be honoured"
Dinendal smiled
"this battle is far from over, Lolindir Kardem must be slain today!"
"I am with you all the Way my lord"
the two elves looked at the battle field. Dinendal stood with his warriors in midst of the battle field
"do not lose faith my warriors for This is not the end but only a new beginning we will not lose this battle that I promise you"
Sprits where raised, fear was taken over by honour and pride, they where ready for the final battle, the rain poured down harder, tentacles poured out Of the crater as the daemon climbed to the surface, Lolindir arranged his men so there bows where facing the ghostly banshees and the skeleton Warriors
"take aim"
Lolindir tilted his head to the side listening to the rain drops hit the floor, could this really be the end?, he wiped the rain off his Forehead
"fire!"
waves of arrows shot through the air impaling into the bodies of the banshees and skeleton warriors. The sound of rain reflecting off of armour could he heard, those that where shot down by the arrows rose once more, Dinendal grinned
"looks like it will have to be hand to hand combat"
blades where drawn, spears where held ready and shields where held tight
"charge"
all that could heard was a loud roar as the warriors Charged. Lolindir ran towards the banshees, a loud howl, screech came roaring from the banshees mouth’s, many fell to the floor holding their ears Others kept charging Lolindir thrust his sword into the banshees many of which disappeared; Dinendal came up behind one of the giant skeleton orges
"Ist welsar"
his sword began to glow golden, Dinendal voice could be heard screaming as he swung his sword side ways slicing the giant in half.
The Battle waged on, the daemon had climbed its way out of the crater and onto the surface,
"keep fighting keep fighting!"
tentacles came soaring down, Crushing anything that was in its path, the banshees reappeared
"how can this be?"
Lolindir looked confused as he watched the rain pass through them
"now I understand"
Lolindir stood in front of them his sword held tight in his right hand
"taski firte alowsa!"
Lolindir's blade turned blue
"now I’ll send you back to the abyss of which you came"
he grinned. Lolindir's blade came crashing down sending what ever it touched back to the evil Pace from once it came, howling filled the battle field, cries of pain filled the air, the small daemons came swooping down picking up there victims and Ripping them to pieces. Dinendal watched the battle he could feel the rage and anger spreading through his body like a deadly disease, his grip on his Helt tightened his eyes closed, how could I have been so stupid,
"enough! Kardem"
yelled Dinendal; his eye level began to fall until he was staring at His feet. Kardem looked down at Dinendal from the cliff edge, laughter could be heard coming from Kardem, a grin spread across Dinendal's face he Began to laugh
"you fool Kardem I offered you the chance to surrender but you said no, this battle is already over!"
Kardem's laughter began to die Down until it stopped, what does he mean this battle is over? The daemons swooped the sky each one looking for their next victim, Lolindir ran over to His men, he picked up a shield from one of his fallen warriors and stuck it in the ground
"brace yourselves men"
what was left of this unit of warriors Stuck their shields in the ground and waited for the impact. A fowl scream could be heard coming from the small daemons as they can swooping down From the sky, Lolindir closed his eyes praying this all to be a dream and waited for the impact.
A loud roar came over the hills and fire spread across the battle field and sky, Lolindir peered round his shield to see another set of creatures. These creatures had the form of a man, dark red wings and tail, spikes coming from their shoulders, elbows and down their backs, their eyes pure red, Lolindir blinked
"now I understand why Dinendal was late"
a smile spread across his face. Elven warriors looked up to the sky, one turned to lord Lolindir
"my lord who are those people?"
Lolindir turned his head round
"those people are the ancient race of fire Makons, there are four types to This race, our king knows the king of their kind"
"my lord that race is too dangerous, how do we know they can be trusted?"
Lolindir gave a small Look to say he was annoyed " You are young, it was many years ago, I was but a mere warrior when king Dinendal lead us into battle against an Unknown foe, but what Dinendal didn’t know was that they where waiting for us. During the battle the fire Makons appeared they helped us and Dinendal and there king became good friends, they can be trusted"
fire rained from the sky as the Makons swooped down breathing fire at the fowl Beasts that Kardem had summoned. One of the Makons glided to the ground and stood up, his long dark red cloak came down to his knees, his royal Armour shined, his sword was the size of himself and upon his head lay a crown
"Dinendal I would have been here sooner I hope your mean are holding out"
Dinendal turned round and smiled
"Amroth I am glad to see you made it, things are a bit grim, Kardem has began to use the black book!, my men can handle most of this but that seventh ancient daemon"
Amroth smiled
"leave that beast to me"
Amroth turned his back on Dinendal and Began to walk over to where the tentacles where coming from. Kardem sunk into the shadows reappearing in his dark tower looking out onto the battle Field. Lolindir ran across the battlefield trying to get to Dinendal, Lolindir was knocked to the ground by a giant bone orge hitting him across the chest with its massive club, the club came crashing down to kill Lolindir, Lolindir closed his eyes ready to die. When he opened his right eye, stood in front of him was a Makon warrior Lolindir opened his left eye and saw that the massive man standing in front of him had crushed the bone giant
"are You alright Elven captain?"
Lolindir stood to his feet
"I am fine"
the club lay on the floor smashed in pieces. The Makons sword had sliced the orge In half
"Elven captain this battlefield is dangerous for you to use such careless behaviour, where are you trying to go in such a hurry"
"I am trying to reach king Dinendal"
a skeleton warrior came running towards them, without looking the Makon unleashed a wall of fire from his hand into the Skeleton
"climb on my back"
the Makon warrior said to Lolindir, Lolindir climbed on his back and they where off. Kardem watched as Lolindir was Flown through the sky
"that Elven captain is getting annoying"
one of the small daemons came swooping up from underneath the Makon, while Passing him by the daemon sunk its claws into his side cutting him clean open
"are you ok?"
Lolindir asked nervously
"i’m fine"
replied the fire Makon. Kardem began summoning all dark energy to him, a large black ball formed in his hand, he waited until the Makon warrior carrying Lolindir Came close enough, the dark ball was sent through the air and made impact with the Makon warrior, down swirled the warrior falling closer to the Ground with each second that went by Lolindir began to panic sweat started to drip from his forehead. Two Makon warriors came racing over, one Caught Lolindir the other caught the falling Makon warrior
"if its ok with you could you put me back on the ground"
the Makon slowly lowered Lolindir to the ground
"who did this to our brother?"
their voices sounded more like a roar, Lolindir pointed up toward the dark tower
"Kardem did This to your brother"
as Lolindir closed his mouth the two had shot off into the sky. Lolindir smiled, I hope you can take revenge for your brother, he Began to run over to Dinendal. His breath was short when he finally reach Dinendal
"my...lord if we are to attack Kardem now is the our chance"
Dinendal smiled
"such a wise captain"
two bodies came crashing down towards Dinendal and Lolindir. As the bodies hit the floor they barely missed Dinendal and Lolindir, there lay the two Makon warriors who went off to attack Kardem
"rest in piece brave warriors"
Lolindir said while staring at Them, Dinendal began looking up at the tower
"my lord we must go now"
Dinendal nodded and the two of them ran inside the dark tower.
Amroth made his way through the battle field crushing anything that came his way, He made his way towards the seventh ancient daemon, a massive head appeared out of the crater, the daemon was now free from its dark prison, Amroth glided up towards its eyes
"you fowl bea..."
a tentacle came crashing down which slammed Amroth into the ground. Amroth fell to his knees
"That’s it!"
Amroth's body began to glow, a pure white light covered his body, the ground began to shake the wind carried a loud roar across the Battlefield, everything stop and everyone’s glare was on Amroth even Kardem's
"what is he doing?"
the roar and light began to die down. The ancient Daemon wasted no time in attacking Amroth, it swallowed him whole, inside the beasts mouth Amroth glided up right in pitch black
"this is just Disgusting"
a long strade of what seem to be spit dripped off of the top of the beasts mouth and covered Amroth from head to toe, Amroth's face Began to scowl. Fire engulfed his body, it grew and grew inside the beasts mouth to the point where the beast could take no more an had to spit Amroth out of its mouth sending him straight to the ground, he wiped the green liquid off his face and flung it to the ground
"now you've made me Mad"
fire engulfed Amroth's body growing and expanding. The flames grow, changing shape till the fire had settled on an object, that object was a Massive dragon made of fire and at the heart of the dragon Amroth stood, the dragon gave a mighty roar and slammed its claw into the beast’s side Flames scorched the ground and the battle field became an inferno of heat. The captain of the Makon squad yelled out across the battle field
"every One run for your own safety!"
elves an Makons began to flee from the battle field towards the mountains, meanwhile inside the dark tower Dinendal An Lolindir smashed open another door searching for their target
"where is that coward"
Dinendal said ramming his fist into the broken door
"I am Here, I am no where"
the dark wizards voice could he heard floating in the cold air
"show yourself coward!"
Dinendal's face began to screw up
"you Will die in due time but first you must find me"
with his last words he began to laugh. Dinendal's body filled with rage, his fist began to shake, his Teeth grinded together. Lolindir shock Dinendal
"my lord calm down he is trying to get you in to an unfit state, he is playing with your mind!"
Lolindir said releasing him from his grip, a loud roar followed by the bricks smashing out of the wall, the two elves could see out onto the battlefield both Dinendal and Lolindir peered out at the on going battle Kardem's army had been renewed even with the Makons help they where still being Slaughtered. A large dragon of fire swooped down and sung its claws deep into the daemons head, tentacles trapped around the dragons body and launched it into the dark tower; the tower took a violent impacted shaking the foundations, the dragon stood on back up right a strange roar like Voice could he heard saying
"this is where are fight ends"
the Makons began swooping down grabbing the Elven warriors, sowing away at an Alarming rate, the battlefield had been cleared of all elves and Makons the only things remaining where Kardem's dark army, the ancient daemon and Amroth; the fire around Amroth began to disappear until a very tired Amroth stood looking around the field breathing heavily, Dinendal and Lolindir Watched
"my lord what is he planning to do, he is too tired to fight look at him?"
Dinendal closed his eyes and smiled
"I wouldn’t count Amroth out right about now he is a fire Makon after all and they are the toughest of the four Makons, just watch he’s got something planned"
Amroth mustered all His strength into his left hand fire surrounded his fist
"listen up Kardem, this is why you will never win while we Makons still live and breath"
Kardem Appeared on top of the dark tower. Amroth gave a loud scream and slammed his fist into the ground, earth, rock and fire exploded covering the battlefield with a ten feet thick dome of fire reaching a temperature of a thousand degrees, energy came off the impact sending rocks, boulders and
Large fireballs in ever direction, Dinendal shoved Lolindir out the way of incoming fireball, Dinendal hit the cold stone floor, he lay on his back Laughing
"those Makons sure do know how to make a fight interesting"
he climbed back to his feet. The fiery dome of heat died down, there stood Amroth still on one knee his fist imbedded into the ground with one last sigh he fell flat on his face passing out, Dinendal followed by Lolindir began Running through out the dark tower. There was one door left Dinendal slowly opened it gripping his sword tight ready for anything, the two of them Walked into a massive dome shaped room where they stood in the middle. There was a cold breeze
"so I see you found me"
Kardem's cruel voice Could be heard echoing around the room, the two elves looked round the room searching for Kardem
"show your face Kardem"
yelled Dinendal. The Room fell silent nothing could be heard, Dinendal turned to face Lolindir
"watch yourself this is where the fight gets dangerous"
Kardem's voice Could be heard chanting words, Kardem began to laugh
"you fools your warriors outside are about to die as are you!"
dark energy surround Dinendal An Lolindir, the dark energy exploded, Dinendal and Lolindir hit the floor hard. Slowly climbing to his feet Dinendal held his sword ready while Lolindir recovered from the blast, Kardem appear behind him, Dinendal blocked the attack but struggled to hold his ground.
Makon warriors landed back on the crispy battlefield to help Amroth to a safer place to rest, the Elven warriors stared At the burnt battlefield, there was nothing left; the ground began to shake, Makons and elves turned to see a horde of daemons in front of them. One Of the Makons tried to wake Amroth
"my lord my lord we need your hel...."
he was cut off by the captain
"leave are lord to rest he has done his part Now let us do are part"
the captain began organising his men into three lines and yelled for the elves to retreat behind them. The elves ran for their Lives as quickly as they could they reorganised themselves behind the Makon warriors, the captain glided in front of the first line of men
"make a Dome of fire surrounding us"
the front line held out their hands and created a dome of fire surrounding them protecting them from the outside world. The heat came scorching off the flames the captain looked focus upon the daemons
"ready yourselves for battle!"
swords where drawn, the daemons Began to walk towards the dome of fire, the captains hearts began to beat harder and faster as the enemy came closer
"if we make it out of this one We’re lucky"
the daemons stood one foot away from the dome of fire. Nerves where reaching there peak, one of the warriors grinned
"captain they Can’t come through it’s to hot for them"
a few laughs could be heard, the daemons began to walk through the fire like it was nothing, sweat began to Drip off of the captains forehead
"raise the heat on the outside walls, lets see how hot these guys can take it!"
deep down inside the captain knew They would still get through it was only a matter of time. One by one the daemons walked into the wall of fire, one daemon came charging at the front Line, the captain increased his power and speed to his maximum and charged at the daemon screaming. The Elven army stayed back and watched the Captain bravely take on a daemon, it was a fair fight both creatures had the same amount of power but the Makons where smarter then these ugly fowl daemons, one by one the daemons arrived through the wall of fire beginning their attack, an epic war between fire Makons and daemon waged on.
Elves watching at the back couldn’t stand by and watch as these brave race of people defended them they too must make a stand, Fire burnt what Ever it touched as Makon verses daemon continued to wage war on each other. Dinendal slammed into the giant iron doors
"Kardem I will never be Defeated by you!"
Lolindir began to come to, he didn’t move but slowly remove his dagger from his sheath and hold it in his hand, Kardem took no Notice of the fallen elf on the ground his focus was on Dinendal. An evil laugh filled the room has Dinendal was thrown down by Lolindir, Kardem Stood beside them
"any last wishes before you die Dinendal?"
the moment that Kardem had finished speaking Lolindir sat up right thrusting the Dagger into Kardem's leg. Blood poured down Kardem's leg
"so captain Lolindir I see you have a brain"
said Kardem standing over him, with one Quick moment Lolindir was back on his feet
"I have changed, my skills have improved i’m not a young elf anymore, I can more then take care of You!"
a look of pure evil spread across Kardem's face
"so you think you’re a match for me you are sadly mistaken captain Lolindir"
the dagger Imbedded in Kardem's knee shot out, flying towards Lolindir's head, Lolindir dived out the way the dagger missing him only by a few inches. Lolindir Charged at Kardem blade first but with one quick movement Kardem moved and kicked Lolindir to the side,
"you are nothing to me, the only thing I’m interested in is Dinendal!"
lightening surround Kardem's hand, seconds later shooting out and surrounding Lolindir, while lifting him up. Lolindir's Scream could be heard through out the dark tower, his cries of agony, his body trying to get loose, Dinendal crawled over to Kardem
"let him go!"
Kardem glared down at the elf near his feet. Lolindir's cries became louder,
"Kardem let him go or else!"
Dinendal yelled over Lolindir's cries of Agony, Kardem took no notice and kicked Dinendal half way across the dome shaped room
"so be it Kardem"
Dinendal put his hands together and Began to chant, Kardem could not hear him over Lolindir's cries, Dinendal's hand began to glow. Slowly but surely Dinendal got back on his feet Holding out his glowing hand, with one swift movement he banged his hands together send thunder towards Kardem, Lolindir dropped to the ground Sparks of lighting coming off his body, his body not moving a muscle, Kardem lay imbedded in the wall his eyes closed his body not moving, Dinendal
Slowly limped over to Lolindir
"Lolindir, Lolindir are you alright?"
Lolindir just lay there breathing heavy.
The Makons put up a brave fight, both elves and Makons pulled together to kill the daemons, the battle had been won the last daemon was slain, Amroth lay still his chest moving up and down as he breathed in and out, the Makon Warriors landed, the ground shook waking Amroth from his slumber. He sat up looking around at the slain daemons
"what happened?"
the wounded Captain of the Makons answered his question telling him what had gone on while he lay in slumber, Amroth stood up
"I see, where is Dinendal and Lolindir?"
"they are inside the dark tower, not long ago you could here a scream of agony coming from inside the tower I think they are trouble my Lord”
Amroth nodded. As Dinendal helped Lolindir to sit up Kardem opened his eyes, throwing himself out of the way he sort revenge for the damage done to him by Dinendal, using his magic he summoned his sword to his hand, flying towards Lolindir blade first Dinendal saw this all to late to Move Lolindir out of the way, the blade pieced Dinendal's royal armour through the chest. Amroth's eyes changed to that of a dragons eyes, he Scanned the tower for heat signals, he quickly found them but noticed one heat signal was dying fast
"Dinendal!"
Amroth took of to the sky flying as Fast as he could. Dinendal closed his eyes in pain not making a noise, Lolindir just sat up right
"m...y my lord why did you save me?"
Dinendal smiled Slightly
"because you are to young to die, my time has come, my only wish is for you to take over my place as lord of all of Trulin, do me proud Lolindir, I always though of you as the son I never had"
Lolindir's eyes swelled up with tears
"Dinendal you have been like a father to me I wont let You down"
Dinendal fell to one side, Kardem pulled the blade out of Dinendal his eyes filled his blood lust
"so mighty Dinendal you have met your end by my hands at last"
Dinendal lay on the cold floor
"yes Kardem you may of slain me but there will be others like me to stop people like you!, you Think you've won just wait till Amroth gets here"
Kardem's smiled was wiped off his face, he picked Dinendal up and put the blade to his neck
"this is Where you finally meet your end"
all Lolindir could do was watch, his body still not moving, Dinendal smiled
"at least I know I stopped you"
just as Kardem was about to slice Dinendal's neck clean open one of the walls caved in. stood on the other side in mid air glided Amroth, as he glided into the room his feet touched the floor and he stood, his massive sword in one hand, fire surrounding his other hand
"put Dinendal down now!"
his voice Roared through out the room, Kardem let Dinendal drop to the floor. Amroth took slow steps forward until he was within ten meters of Kardem, Kardem grinned to himself
"so you’re the mighty Amroth king of all fire Makons, you have some talent I will give you that but not enough to kill..."
he Was cut off by Amroth
"quiet you insect, you have not even the strength nor the power to even harm me"
saying this Amroth disappeared, he then Reappeared behind Kardem. Kardem could sense Amroth behind him
"how did you do that, your race have no magic powers?"
Amroth smiled
"yes You are right we have no magic powers but we fire Makons can disappear and reappear like a flame"
Amroth turned around kicking Kardem in the Back sending him through the dome wall into another room, bricks crumbled, dust covered the hole where Kardem had been sent through. Kardem
Lay on the floor his body bleeding in several different places, he knew he couldn’t win this fight; he flicked through the black book chanting spells as He went along; these spells increased everything about him making him faster, stronger, tougher. Amroth helped Lolindir over to Dinendal's body, Dinendal still hanging on, Kardem smashed through the wall Amroth turned round
"I though that kick would of smashed you to pieces"
Kardem Grinned before Amroth could do anything Kardem ran faster then Amroth could see and smacked him in the face, Amroth stood perfectly still
"is that Meant to hurt Kardem?"
Kardem back away a little fearing the worst. Kardem began to laugh
"what’s so funny Kardem"
"oh it’s nothing Amroth Only that your warriors and those Elven warriors are about to meet there end, I have summoned the most feared, powerful and deadly creatures there are to destroy your warriors, also some are on there way to your kingdom as well to destroy your way of living"
Amroth's anger level hit the Roof, his strength increasing as his anger got stronger
"Kardem this is it for you"
Amroth vanished again, appeared at Kardem's side ripping his left Arm off vanishing again and reappearing in front of Kardem kicking him in his knees breaking his knee caps. Kardem fell to the ground
"your way of living is over even if you kill me, the daemons outside will disappear but those going for your kingdom will not they will continue to destroy your People"
Amroth's sword sliced through Kardem's stomach, separating him from his legs, Kardem still alive looked up at Amroth
"you haven’t won, Someone else will take my place you fool!"
Amroth stomped on his head. Amroth ripped his robes throwing the black book to one side, Amroth went
Berserk ripping Kardem's body to pieces then setting fire to it, Amroth picked up the black book and walked over to Lolindir, Amroth began to feel A bit funny something as wrong, a voice inside his head, Lolindir looked up
"Amroth drop the book"
Amroth dropped the book by Lolindir's feet
"Lolindir what was that?"
"That my friend was Kardem's protection against the forces of good only elves can pick it up because of there clean and Pure aqua"
Dinendal said his voice getting lower, Lolindir turned to face Dinendal
"at least I got to see Kardem destroyed"
saying this Dinendal's Eyes closed one last time, he took his last breathe, his chest stopped moving he lay still, his life was over. Amroth picked Lolindir and Dinendal up And flow outside, down to there warriors and his warriors, he lay Lolindir and Dinendal down
"I am sorry Lolindir but I must go my people need me, My family needs me, I must protect them and my family, and I must protect my son “
Lolindir smiled
” thank you for your help Amroth we shall not forget It"
Amroth and his warriors flow off into the sky, soon they where just a blur, Lolindir was helped to his feet "men we are going home"
he turned to Look at Dinendal
"did you hear that i’m taking you home Dinendal where you belong"
the Elven warriors left the dreaded lands of Martar. Inside the Dark tower a little boy stood next to Kardem's burnt corpses, the little boy grinned with pure evil inside his eyes
"those Makons and elves will pay! They shouldn’t of killed my master, this tower now belongs to me!"
an evil laughter could be heard echoing around the dark tower.
Forty thousand years have pasted from that day.
Darkness loomed over the dark tower of Dertah; faces of tormented people where engraved into the towers structure, winds howled around the venumus lands of Marter. The faint sound of marching footsteps could be heard, over the stony hills a band of Elven warriors appeared marching towards the Tower, their blades gleamed in what little sun light could pierce the dark clouds, their spears held high with pride. A young Elven captain marched a front of them, he raised his hand and the army stopped dead in its tracks with one quick motion he turned to face them with a slight glare he told them
"My brothers this marks a grim day in our history for we are about to storm the dark tower of Dertah"
the captain turned from his Elven brothers. His foot took one step forward to walk on ahead
"my lord why are we the ones to fight in this battle? Why aren’t the humans or Makons fighting along Side us as well, I thought this battle would determine the fate of all races so why are we the only ones to fight!"
the captain turned around ready to Speak when he was cut off by another voice
"captain Lolindir I shall answer that question"
a tall fair male elf walked out from behind one of the rock’s. Upon his head there lay a crown, Lolindir bowed his head at the sight of this man
"my king"
the man walked over to the young captain
"Lolindir call me Dinendal"
the Elven warriors lay silent. The king stood in front of them his back straight, his eyes glowing
"we are the ones who Are fighting because only we can pick the book up without being killed by its dark aura, the humans are to busy with their own battles and the Makons Will only appear in great times of need"
a faint voice could be heard from behind the first row of warriors
"but my king if he is as powerful as you say And he has the black book in his hands how will we win?"
"I have fought against Kardem before and I have survived his powers, the only thing you Have to fear my brothers are if we do not defeat him here".
The Elven army began to march once more with king Dinendal leading the fight, the sky Began to rumble, lighting struck, amongst the shadows a pair of bright grey eyes could be seen watching the Elven army matching towards the dark Tower. The eyes moved out of the shadow to reveal a medium length figure standing to the left of the Elven king and his army. Dinendal could sense a Change in the flowing aura around him, his foot steps began to slow down until he stopped
"Kardem I sense your ugly presences, show your ugly Face"
the figured walked out of the shadows his face wrinkled, his eyes flowing with pure evil
"Dinendal why do you come here?"
"Do not play games With me you know why we have come"
Kardem reached into his robes, slowly pulling out a black tattered book. Kardem began flicking through the Pages
"Kardem i'm warning you by the kingdom of Trulin and over my dead body I will not let you turn this world into your evil and darkness"
an evil grin came over Kardem's face, a hard wind came out of no where, it grew and grew becoming stronger as words from Kardem's mouth came flowing Out, Dinendal drew his sword and charged head on at Kardem, Lolindir held the army back as Kardem placed the book back into his robes while Drawing his blade from underneath his robes.
Lighting struck as both Kardem's blade and Dinendal’s blade met each other, there they stayed in a dead lock of blades waiting for the other to make The next move, Dinendal pulled back taking a swing at Kardem, he blocked it, their swords met once more Dinendal couldn’t get a good strike in
"Lolindir surround your men around us, do not let him escape!"
Lolindir placed his hand on his chest
"of course my lord"
with this he nodded and the Elven army surrounded Kardem and Dinendal. Their blades met once more but this time neither one pulled away to attack once more they where Locked, Kardem could be heard muttering something, he placed his hand upon Dinendal's armoured chest, Dinendal was sent backwards rolling on The floor until he stopped, there was no movement from Dinendal
"do... do you think that some cheap magic will stop me?"
Dinendal said climbing Slowly to his feet wiping the blood from his mouth. Kardem began to laugh
"I had forgot the last time we had fought, you wouldn’t stay down, you think Just because you have survived some of my worst magic and curses that is going to save you from today"
Dinendal began to speak but this time it Was not of the human tongue but of the Elven tongue
"eiwl ishta surwar!"
little sparks of light began hovering around until they where pulled towards Dinendal's hand, more and more light gathered onto Dinendal's hand. Kardem looked slightly interested
"I see you have learnt a new trick no matter
it will not save you"
Kardem formed a hand seal and began to chant words in a language long sense pasted
"ahaway evilre"
dark energy could be Seen gathering in Kardem's hand both stared at each other until they knew the time was right. Dinendal thrust his hand forwards and the light shot Out from his hand and headed towards Kardem. Kardem stood still the dark energy was sent towards Dinendal, rain began to fall from the dark Cloudy sky, both types of magic met in the middle, the light passed straight through the dark energy causing it to separate and shot off in all different Directions the light continued its path which made impact with Kardem sending him into some of the Elven warriors causing them to hold their shields In front of them, bracing from the impact. Kardem lay on the ground his finger twitching, Dinendal stood breathing heavy
"your right...I did learn a new trick Kardem...this is the end of your plans"
Kardem's body lay on the rough ground not moving only the wind making his robes flap in the wind, Lolindir stared for a moment
"surround him make sure he is died"
shadows appeared underneath Kardem and began to swallow him, Lolindir drew his Sword but by the time his sword met the ground Kardem had disappeared.
Lightening struck across the cruel lands of Martar, Kardem stood a top a mountain cliff chanting words which no elf could understand, words from an Ancient language long sense pasted, Dinendal an Lolindir looked up at the cliffs edge. The ground began to shake beginning to crumble and split open, The ground sank back into the earth, the Elven warriors scattered and divided in numbers, Lolindir watched the ground as a massive crater appear From the deep dark earth. Kardem looked down to Dinendal
"for your mistakes your people and you shall die a horrible death, say hello to the Seventh ancient daemon the Halafer!"
Lolindir walked closer to the giant crater not hearing Kardem's words he held his blade tight in his hands, the Only sound Lolindir could hear were the small pieces of rock falling down into the black abyss. Lolindir slowly stepped towards the edge of the crater His feet separated he slowly lent forward, during this time Dinendal was ran towards Lolindir shouting something,
"Lolindir get away from there!"
Lolindir looked around hearing aloud voice he couldn’t make out what was being said
"Lolindir get away from there now!"
as Dinendal shouted a Large tentacle came oozing out of the crater. The large tentacle came slamming down towards him, he was save by an Elven warrior tackling him away Causing the warrior to be crush under the weight of the tentacle, Lolindir lay on his back when Dinendal held his hand out to help him up, Lolindir was Pulled to his feet. A wave of arrows where fired at the ancient daemon, some of the Elven warriors launched their spears at the daemon but all proved Useless, it had no effect, this enemy was to strong, Kardem was laughing at there foolish attempts at hurting the daemon. Once more he began to read from the book, once more the ground shook, small patches of dark cycles filled the sky, small daemon looking creatures came flying out, from the Ground skeleton warriors rose, out of the shadows banshees appeared, out of the rocks giant skeleton orges smashed their way free from the stone Prison. The Elven army was completely surround Dinendal turned to face Lolindir
"I am sorry my friend but it looks as if this time I have lead you Into a massacre"
Lolindir placed his hand on Dinendal's shoulder
"my lord you have yet to lead us astray we all believe in you and if it means dying By your side then I would be honoured"
Dinendal smiled
"this battle is far from over, Lolindir Kardem must be slain today!"
"I am with you all the Way my lord"
the two elves looked at the battle field. Dinendal stood with his warriors in midst of the battle field
"do not lose faith my warriors for This is not the end but only a new beginning we will not lose this battle that I promise you"
Sprits where raised, fear was taken over by honour and pride, they where ready for the final battle, the rain poured down harder, tentacles poured out Of the crater as the daemon climbed to the surface, Lolindir arranged his men so there bows where facing the ghostly banshees and the skeleton Warriors
"take aim"
Lolindir tilted his head to the side listening to the rain drops hit the floor, could this really be the end?, he wiped the rain off his Forehead
"fire!"
waves of arrows shot through the air impaling into the bodies of the banshees and skeleton warriors. The sound of rain reflecting off of armour could he heard, those that where shot down by the arrows rose once more, Dinendal grinned
"looks like it will have to be hand to hand combat"
blades where drawn, spears where held ready and shields where held tight
"charge"
all that could heard was a loud roar as the warriors Charged. Lolindir ran towards the banshees, a loud howl, screech came roaring from the banshees mouth’s, many fell to the floor holding their ears Others kept charging Lolindir thrust his sword into the banshees many of which disappeared; Dinendal came up behind one of the giant skeleton orges
"Ist welsar"
his sword began to glow golden, Dinendal voice could be heard screaming as he swung his sword side ways slicing the giant in half.
The Battle waged on, the daemon had climbed its way out of the crater and onto the surface,
"keep fighting keep fighting!"
tentacles came soaring down, Crushing anything that was in its path, the banshees reappeared
"how can this be?"
Lolindir looked confused as he watched the rain pass through them
"now I understand"
Lolindir stood in front of them his sword held tight in his right hand
"taski firte alowsa!"
Lolindir's blade turned blue
"now I’ll send you back to the abyss of which you came"
he grinned. Lolindir's blade came crashing down sending what ever it touched back to the evil Pace from once it came, howling filled the battle field, cries of pain filled the air, the small daemons came swooping down picking up there victims and Ripping them to pieces. Dinendal watched the battle he could feel the rage and anger spreading through his body like a deadly disease, his grip on his Helt tightened his eyes closed, how could I have been so stupid,
"enough! Kardem"
yelled Dinendal; his eye level began to fall until he was staring at His feet. Kardem looked down at Dinendal from the cliff edge, laughter could be heard coming from Kardem, a grin spread across Dinendal's face he Began to laugh
"you fool Kardem I offered you the chance to surrender but you said no, this battle is already over!"
Kardem's laughter began to die Down until it stopped, what does he mean this battle is over? The daemons swooped the sky each one looking for their next victim, Lolindir ran over to His men, he picked up a shield from one of his fallen warriors and stuck it in the ground
"brace yourselves men"
what was left of this unit of warriors Stuck their shields in the ground and waited for the impact. A fowl scream could be heard coming from the small daemons as they can swooping down From the sky, Lolindir closed his eyes praying this all to be a dream and waited for the impact.
A loud roar came over the hills and fire spread across the battle field and sky, Lolindir peered round his shield to see another set of creatures. These creatures had the form of a man, dark red wings and tail, spikes coming from their shoulders, elbows and down their backs, their eyes pure red, Lolindir blinked
"now I understand why Dinendal was late"
a smile spread across his face. Elven warriors looked up to the sky, one turned to lord Lolindir
"my lord who are those people?"
Lolindir turned his head round
"those people are the ancient race of fire Makons, there are four types to This race, our king knows the king of their kind"
"my lord that race is too dangerous, how do we know they can be trusted?"
Lolindir gave a small Look to say he was annoyed " You are young, it was many years ago, I was but a mere warrior when king Dinendal lead us into battle against an Unknown foe, but what Dinendal didn’t know was that they where waiting for us. During the battle the fire Makons appeared they helped us and Dinendal and there king became good friends, they can be trusted"
fire rained from the sky as the Makons swooped down breathing fire at the fowl Beasts that Kardem had summoned. One of the Makons glided to the ground and stood up, his long dark red cloak came down to his knees, his royal Armour shined, his sword was the size of himself and upon his head lay a crown
"Dinendal I would have been here sooner I hope your mean are holding out"
Dinendal turned round and smiled
"Amroth I am glad to see you made it, things are a bit grim, Kardem has began to use the black book!, my men can handle most of this but that seventh ancient daemon"
Amroth smiled
"leave that beast to me"
Amroth turned his back on Dinendal and Began to walk over to where the tentacles where coming from. Kardem sunk into the shadows reappearing in his dark tower looking out onto the battle Field. Lolindir ran across the battlefield trying to get to Dinendal, Lolindir was knocked to the ground by a giant bone orge hitting him across the chest with its massive club, the club came crashing down to kill Lolindir, Lolindir closed his eyes ready to die. When he opened his right eye, stood in front of him was a Makon warrior Lolindir opened his left eye and saw that the massive man standing in front of him had crushed the bone giant
"are You alright Elven captain?"
Lolindir stood to his feet
"I am fine"
the club lay on the floor smashed in pieces. The Makons sword had sliced the orge In half
"Elven captain this battlefield is dangerous for you to use such careless behaviour, where are you trying to go in such a hurry"
"I am trying to reach king Dinendal"
a skeleton warrior came running towards them, without looking the Makon unleashed a wall of fire from his hand into the Skeleton
"climb on my back"
the Makon warrior said to Lolindir, Lolindir climbed on his back and they where off. Kardem watched as Lolindir was Flown through the sky
"that Elven captain is getting annoying"
one of the small daemons came swooping up from underneath the Makon, while Passing him by the daemon sunk its claws into his side cutting him clean open
"are you ok?"
Lolindir asked nervously
"i’m fine"
replied the fire Makon. Kardem began summoning all dark energy to him, a large black ball formed in his hand, he waited until the Makon warrior carrying Lolindir Came close enough, the dark ball was sent through the air and made impact with the Makon warrior, down swirled the warrior falling closer to the Ground with each second that went by Lolindir began to panic sweat started to drip from his forehead. Two Makon warriors came racing over, one Caught Lolindir the other caught the falling Makon warrior
"if its ok with you could you put me back on the ground"
the Makon slowly lowered Lolindir to the ground
"who did this to our brother?"
their voices sounded more like a roar, Lolindir pointed up toward the dark tower
"Kardem did This to your brother"
as Lolindir closed his mouth the two had shot off into the sky. Lolindir smiled, I hope you can take revenge for your brother, he Began to run over to Dinendal. His breath was short when he finally reach Dinendal
"my...lord if we are to attack Kardem now is the our chance"
Dinendal smiled
"such a wise captain"
two bodies came crashing down towards Dinendal and Lolindir. As the bodies hit the floor they barely missed Dinendal and Lolindir, there lay the two Makon warriors who went off to attack Kardem
"rest in piece brave warriors"
Lolindir said while staring at Them, Dinendal began looking up at the tower
"my lord we must go now"
Dinendal nodded and the two of them ran inside the dark tower.
Amroth made his way through the battle field crushing anything that came his way, He made his way towards the seventh ancient daemon, a massive head appeared out of the crater, the daemon was now free from its dark prison, Amroth glided up towards its eyes
"you fowl bea..."
a tentacle came crashing down which slammed Amroth into the ground. Amroth fell to his knees
"That’s it!"
Amroth's body began to glow, a pure white light covered his body, the ground began to shake the wind carried a loud roar across the Battlefield, everything stop and everyone’s glare was on Amroth even Kardem's
"what is he doing?"
the roar and light began to die down. The ancient Daemon wasted no time in attacking Amroth, it swallowed him whole, inside the beasts mouth Amroth glided up right in pitch black
"this is just Disgusting"
a long strade of what seem to be spit dripped off of the top of the beasts mouth and covered Amroth from head to toe, Amroth's face Began to scowl. Fire engulfed his body, it grew and grew inside the beasts mouth to the point where the beast could take no more an had to spit Amroth out of its mouth sending him straight to the ground, he wiped the green liquid off his face and flung it to the ground
"now you've made me Mad"
fire engulfed Amroth's body growing and expanding. The flames grow, changing shape till the fire had settled on an object, that object was a Massive dragon made of fire and at the heart of the dragon Amroth stood, the dragon gave a mighty roar and slammed its claw into the beast’s side Flames scorched the ground and the battle field became an inferno of heat. The captain of the Makon squad yelled out across the battle field
"every One run for your own safety!"
elves an Makons began to flee from the battle field towards the mountains, meanwhile inside the dark tower Dinendal An Lolindir smashed open another door searching for their target
"where is that coward"
Dinendal said ramming his fist into the broken door
"I am Here, I am no where"
the dark wizards voice could he heard floating in the cold air
"show yourself coward!"
Dinendal's face began to screw up
"you Will die in due time but first you must find me"
with his last words he began to laugh. Dinendal's body filled with rage, his fist began to shake, his Teeth grinded together. Lolindir shock Dinendal
"my lord calm down he is trying to get you in to an unfit state, he is playing with your mind!"
Lolindir said releasing him from his grip, a loud roar followed by the bricks smashing out of the wall, the two elves could see out onto the battlefield both Dinendal and Lolindir peered out at the on going battle Kardem's army had been renewed even with the Makons help they where still being Slaughtered. A large dragon of fire swooped down and sung its claws deep into the daemons head, tentacles trapped around the dragons body and launched it into the dark tower; the tower took a violent impacted shaking the foundations, the dragon stood on back up right a strange roar like Voice could he heard saying
"this is where are fight ends"
the Makons began swooping down grabbing the Elven warriors, sowing away at an Alarming rate, the battlefield had been cleared of all elves and Makons the only things remaining where Kardem's dark army, the ancient daemon and Amroth; the fire around Amroth began to disappear until a very tired Amroth stood looking around the field breathing heavily, Dinendal and Lolindir Watched
"my lord what is he planning to do, he is too tired to fight look at him?"
Dinendal closed his eyes and smiled
"I wouldn’t count Amroth out right about now he is a fire Makon after all and they are the toughest of the four Makons, just watch he’s got something planned"
Amroth mustered all His strength into his left hand fire surrounded his fist
"listen up Kardem, this is why you will never win while we Makons still live and breath"
Kardem Appeared on top of the dark tower. Amroth gave a loud scream and slammed his fist into the ground, earth, rock and fire exploded covering the battlefield with a ten feet thick dome of fire reaching a temperature of a thousand degrees, energy came off the impact sending rocks, boulders and
Large fireballs in ever direction, Dinendal shoved Lolindir out the way of incoming fireball, Dinendal hit the cold stone floor, he lay on his back Laughing
"those Makons sure do know how to make a fight interesting"
he climbed back to his feet. The fiery dome of heat died down, there stood Amroth still on one knee his fist imbedded into the ground with one last sigh he fell flat on his face passing out, Dinendal followed by Lolindir began Running through out the dark tower. There was one door left Dinendal slowly opened it gripping his sword tight ready for anything, the two of them Walked into a massive dome shaped room where they stood in the middle. There was a cold breeze
"so I see you found me"
Kardem's cruel voice Could be heard echoing around the room, the two elves looked round the room searching for Kardem
"show your face Kardem"
yelled Dinendal. The Room fell silent nothing could be heard, Dinendal turned to face Lolindir
"watch yourself this is where the fight gets dangerous"
Kardem's voice Could be heard chanting words, Kardem began to laugh
"you fools your warriors outside are about to die as are you!"
dark energy surround Dinendal An Lolindir, the dark energy exploded, Dinendal and Lolindir hit the floor hard. Slowly climbing to his feet Dinendal held his sword ready while Lolindir recovered from the blast, Kardem appear behind him, Dinendal blocked the attack but struggled to hold his ground.
Makon warriors landed back on the crispy battlefield to help Amroth to a safer place to rest, the Elven warriors stared At the burnt battlefield, there was nothing left; the ground began to shake, Makons and elves turned to see a horde of daemons in front of them. One Of the Makons tried to wake Amroth
"my lord my lord we need your hel...."
he was cut off by the captain
"leave are lord to rest he has done his part Now let us do are part"
the captain began organising his men into three lines and yelled for the elves to retreat behind them. The elves ran for their Lives as quickly as they could they reorganised themselves behind the Makon warriors, the captain glided in front of the first line of men
"make a Dome of fire surrounding us"
the front line held out their hands and created a dome of fire surrounding them protecting them from the outside world. The heat came scorching off the flames the captain looked focus upon the daemons
"ready yourselves for battle!"
swords where drawn, the daemons Began to walk towards the dome of fire, the captains hearts began to beat harder and faster as the enemy came closer
"if we make it out of this one We’re lucky"
the daemons stood one foot away from the dome of fire. Nerves where reaching there peak, one of the warriors grinned
"captain they Can’t come through it’s to hot for them"
a few laughs could be heard, the daemons began to walk through the fire like it was nothing, sweat began to Drip off of the captains forehead
"raise the heat on the outside walls, lets see how hot these guys can take it!"
deep down inside the captain knew They would still get through it was only a matter of time. One by one the daemons walked into the wall of fire, one daemon came charging at the front Line, the captain increased his power and speed to his maximum and charged at the daemon screaming. The Elven army stayed back and watched the Captain bravely take on a daemon, it was a fair fight both creatures had the same amount of power but the Makons where smarter then these ugly fowl daemons, one by one the daemons arrived through the wall of fire beginning their attack, an epic war between fire Makons and daemon waged on.
Elves watching at the back couldn’t stand by and watch as these brave race of people defended them they too must make a stand, Fire burnt what Ever it touched as Makon verses daemon continued to wage war on each other. Dinendal slammed into the giant iron doors
"Kardem I will never be Defeated by you!"
Lolindir began to come to, he didn’t move but slowly remove his dagger from his sheath and hold it in his hand, Kardem took no Notice of the fallen elf on the ground his focus was on Dinendal. An evil laugh filled the room has Dinendal was thrown down by Lolindir, Kardem Stood beside them
"any last wishes before you die Dinendal?"
the moment that Kardem had finished speaking Lolindir sat up right thrusting the Dagger into Kardem's leg. Blood poured down Kardem's leg
"so captain Lolindir I see you have a brain"
said Kardem standing over him, with one Quick moment Lolindir was back on his feet
"I have changed, my skills have improved i’m not a young elf anymore, I can more then take care of You!"
a look of pure evil spread across Kardem's face
"so you think you’re a match for me you are sadly mistaken captain Lolindir"
the dagger Imbedded in Kardem's knee shot out, flying towards Lolindir's head, Lolindir dived out the way the dagger missing him only by a few inches. Lolindir Charged at Kardem blade first but with one quick movement Kardem moved and kicked Lolindir to the side,
"you are nothing to me, the only thing I’m interested in is Dinendal!"
lightening surround Kardem's hand, seconds later shooting out and surrounding Lolindir, while lifting him up. Lolindir's Scream could be heard through out the dark tower, his cries of agony, his body trying to get loose, Dinendal crawled over to Kardem
"let him go!"
Kardem glared down at the elf near his feet. Lolindir's cries became louder,
"Kardem let him go or else!"
Dinendal yelled over Lolindir's cries of Agony, Kardem took no notice and kicked Dinendal half way across the dome shaped room
"so be it Kardem"
Dinendal put his hands together and Began to chant, Kardem could not hear him over Lolindir's cries, Dinendal's hand began to glow. Slowly but surely Dinendal got back on his feet Holding out his glowing hand, with one swift movement he banged his hands together send thunder towards Kardem, Lolindir dropped to the ground Sparks of lighting coming off his body, his body not moving a muscle, Kardem lay imbedded in the wall his eyes closed his body not moving, Dinendal
Slowly limped over to Lolindir
"Lolindir, Lolindir are you alright?"
Lolindir just lay there breathing heavy.
The Makons put up a brave fight, both elves and Makons pulled together to kill the daemons, the battle had been won the last daemon was slain, Amroth lay still his chest moving up and down as he breathed in and out, the Makon Warriors landed, the ground shook waking Amroth from his slumber. He sat up looking around at the slain daemons
"what happened?"
the wounded Captain of the Makons answered his question telling him what had gone on while he lay in slumber, Amroth stood up
"I see, where is Dinendal and Lolindir?"
"they are inside the dark tower, not long ago you could here a scream of agony coming from inside the tower I think they are trouble my Lord”
Amroth nodded. As Dinendal helped Lolindir to sit up Kardem opened his eyes, throwing himself out of the way he sort revenge for the damage done to him by Dinendal, using his magic he summoned his sword to his hand, flying towards Lolindir blade first Dinendal saw this all to late to Move Lolindir out of the way, the blade pieced Dinendal's royal armour through the chest. Amroth's eyes changed to that of a dragons eyes, he Scanned the tower for heat signals, he quickly found them but noticed one heat signal was dying fast
"Dinendal!"
Amroth took of to the sky flying as Fast as he could. Dinendal closed his eyes in pain not making a noise, Lolindir just sat up right
"m...y my lord why did you save me?"
Dinendal smiled Slightly
"because you are to young to die, my time has come, my only wish is for you to take over my place as lord of all of Trulin, do me proud Lolindir, I always though of you as the son I never had"
Lolindir's eyes swelled up with tears
"Dinendal you have been like a father to me I wont let You down"
Dinendal fell to one side, Kardem pulled the blade out of Dinendal his eyes filled his blood lust
"so mighty Dinendal you have met your end by my hands at last"
Dinendal lay on the cold floor
"yes Kardem you may of slain me but there will be others like me to stop people like you!, you Think you've won just wait till Amroth gets here"
Kardem's smiled was wiped off his face, he picked Dinendal up and put the blade to his neck
"this is Where you finally meet your end"
all Lolindir could do was watch, his body still not moving, Dinendal smiled
"at least I know I stopped you"
just as Kardem was about to slice Dinendal's neck clean open one of the walls caved in. stood on the other side in mid air glided Amroth, as he glided into the room his feet touched the floor and he stood, his massive sword in one hand, fire surrounding his other hand
"put Dinendal down now!"
his voice Roared through out the room, Kardem let Dinendal drop to the floor. Amroth took slow steps forward until he was within ten meters of Kardem, Kardem grinned to himself
"so you’re the mighty Amroth king of all fire Makons, you have some talent I will give you that but not enough to kill..."
he Was cut off by Amroth
"quiet you insect, you have not even the strength nor the power to even harm me"
saying this Amroth disappeared, he then Reappeared behind Kardem. Kardem could sense Amroth behind him
"how did you do that, your race have no magic powers?"
Amroth smiled
"yes You are right we have no magic powers but we fire Makons can disappear and reappear like a flame"
Amroth turned around kicking Kardem in the Back sending him through the dome wall into another room, bricks crumbled, dust covered the hole where Kardem had been sent through. Kardem
Lay on the floor his body bleeding in several different places, he knew he couldn’t win this fight; he flicked through the black book chanting spells as He went along; these spells increased everything about him making him faster, stronger, tougher. Amroth helped Lolindir over to Dinendal's body, Dinendal still hanging on, Kardem smashed through the wall Amroth turned round
"I though that kick would of smashed you to pieces"
Kardem Grinned before Amroth could do anything Kardem ran faster then Amroth could see and smacked him in the face, Amroth stood perfectly still
"is that Meant to hurt Kardem?"
Kardem back away a little fearing the worst. Kardem began to laugh
"what’s so funny Kardem"
"oh it’s nothing Amroth Only that your warriors and those Elven warriors are about to meet there end, I have summoned the most feared, powerful and deadly creatures there are to destroy your warriors, also some are on there way to your kingdom as well to destroy your way of living"
Amroth's anger level hit the Roof, his strength increasing as his anger got stronger
"Kardem this is it for you"
Amroth vanished again, appeared at Kardem's side ripping his left Arm off vanishing again and reappearing in front of Kardem kicking him in his knees breaking his knee caps. Kardem fell to the ground
"your way of living is over even if you kill me, the daemons outside will disappear but those going for your kingdom will not they will continue to destroy your People"
Amroth's sword sliced through Kardem's stomach, separating him from his legs, Kardem still alive looked up at Amroth
"you haven’t won, Someone else will take my place you fool!"
Amroth stomped on his head. Amroth ripped his robes throwing the black book to one side, Amroth went
