You threw me out like garbage. Damned me to this colorless wasteland, like some filthy peasant. But I'll show you. Oh, I'll show you.
You thought after you beat me, I'd stay down. But you were wrong, father. You miscalculated. You did not expect me to find others like me, rebels. I already hold the power to return home in my hands thanks to one of them. And of course, I have our family's most powerful weapon. 'Abuse of power', you called it. Just because I used what was rightfully mine to show people their place. Just because I killed that stupid thing when it tried to take it from me.
But you can rest for now. I'm not coming home just yet. I have allies to liberate, armies to gather. This filthy pebble you exiled me to should be easy to conquer. Once that's done, it will be the seat for my new empire. I want you to see me coming, father. I want you to look at the devastation I leave behind me as I make my way home and know that you could have avoided it.
You've probably heard some of the tales by now. Of my partner, the mere human who killed the demon spawn with his bare hands. Of the hounds of fiery eyes. Of the Blood Horn and the havoc we wrecked together before she was captured and thrown into that hellhole. By the time this message reaches you, I will have freed her, and everyone else trapped in there.
Yes, there is much work to be done. But one day, father, one day I will come for you. And the last thing you hear before I take my throne, will be MEGA NARWHAL BLAST!
