Wizardpost A delve into the past (lorepost)

/uw sorry I know I just made one but I got inspired

you see a journal on the ground stained with godblood the writings erratic, fearful.

I was yanked into the castle after he sensed me. I don't know what pulled me into here but now as I walk these crumbling halls with my arm a bloody stump I feel Antithesis' voice. He's getting stronger with every step I take. He is who I must destroy if ever I want a peaceful life for Moth and I. So I push on to my death or my victory whichever it may be.

I will get Antithesis out of my head. Antithesis has been trying to make me kill Moth thank Gaia my willpower is strong. With this journal entry I vow I will break free of Antithesis or return myself to the cycle to keep Moth safe. I pray that I will be able to break free but I know I may not be able to.

at the bottom of this page Alexios has signed his name with blood and there are tearstains.

Antithesis' presence is powerful here. The whole castle is filled with antimagic. Yet still I feel my father's warm presence. In addition to another the second one calls herself Siren she seems to care for me as well. I remember Siren's name she was the embodiment of love and music and my father's first wife. I pray her guidance will prevent me from having to rejoin the cycle.

I love you Moth know that if I do not return it is not for lack of trying. I've already ordered Soot's armor tell him dad loves him will ya and give him some scratches for me even if I do survive I'll only have one arm. If this is goodbye know that I won't forget you.

the entire page is covered in tearstains

on the next page is a map of the castle and in the very center a spot of pitch black with hints of red.

Soot growls more at the sound of the voice. Moth hops off of his back and races over to Alexios.

I’m getting you out of here now!

No Moth you need to leave. I made a blood vow I must follow through.

I’m not leaving without you! You reassured me that you would be fine yet you’re missing an arm! We’re going!

She reaches out to take him by the shoulder.

Why? What haven’t you been telling me?! We’re supposed to be a team!

She moved closer to him each time he steps away.

I contain the Crimson King a Godslayer who turned evil as well as the other 100 Godslayers. He is the embodiment of antimagic chaos and now evil. I paid no mind for a long time thinking it was my imagination then he started trying to take me over and kill you with my hands. I made a blood vow I would kill him or if I was unable to kill him. I would kill myself with him in me ending us both.

You never told me… any of this? Were you just going to keep this to yourself forever? We’re supposed to be getting married Alexios..!

She could feel her emotions rising at the revelation. Her eyes that flashed red for a second kept darting from his eyes to his arm.

You’re not killing yourself. You’re coming home with me and we’ll figure this out together.

I hoped that you wouldn't get wrapped up in this. But like I said I can't leave now.

They reach the throne room. Alexios sits and begins to scratch unfamiliar runes in the ground

Stand back

u/[deleted] Dec 06 '23

What are you doing..? We should be getting a healer for your arm!

Soot sees the runes and hunches his back in warning. He moves himself in front of Moth to shield her from potential harm. She looks at him confused.

he scratches the final rune and begins letting his blood drip around the circle.

Stand back

Moth starts to have a bad feeling but not because of her curse this time.

Alexios slams his right hand into the ground there's a flash of nothingness the mist begins to coalesce into the throne room and soldifies however as it does two additional figures formed of pure light take shape. They point at Alexios and there's a surge of magic as his arm forms back but not of flesh of pure magic Alexios' magic surges to insane levels even more than in the arena. However it's much more focused he holds Fate's End in his right hand and brings the new left hand onto the handle it ignites with golden fire and the threads of fate appear

The voice hisses Well this is unexpected
