164 Tower Within The Void (2/2)
To Celebrate this they renamed the Planet and Gathered around the Capital only to be greeted by a strange commotion.
They all knew the Dragon Emperor had come back home from a long journey along with his army of one thousand wives, what they were all seeing was cataclysmic hell that reminded them of the disaster that happened decades ago when many around the capitol died.
Most of the people rushed forward to see if they would be helpful while others who knew they would only get in the way stayed behind and watched from high in the sky.
Everyone rushed towards the Palace hopping nothing bad happened like last time.
Once there they saw the Empresses, all one thousand of them gathered together discussing something, while Tristan along with many of the other High ranking Generals such as Gold Luster, Timothy and the two youngest Generals Derrick and Tes, were preparing to rush inside.
Those who just arrived got looks from the Empresses and expressed their desire to provide aid as well as anything else that might be needed. When Vivian was about to prevent them from getting closer Tia whispered something to her and Vivian allowed them to join Tristan and the others.
Tia then turned to her sisters and spoke.
”While Dashnell is in this state the best thing we can do is leave him be, but we have all grown strong enough to not fear death. Let the Generals and soldiers of the Empire be our shield as we move forward to see if we can calm him down on our own.
If we fail and have to retreat we can lock down the area until he calms down on his own.”
Everyone nodded their heads and looked at the Palace that is now frozen over as lightning and fire wash over the ice, space and time distorted the area and they could feel the chaotic energy of Destruction and chaos mixing together.
Before they could get ready and form up a plan they all heard the voice of the Dragon Emperor.
”Is there really a need for all this, I just wish be alone... Alone for just awhile.”
After these words they waited to hear more only for the sound of Hellfire and Lighting to drown out all other sound.
The Generals were the first to act and set up a barrier around the Palace sealing it off from those to weak to withstand the strain of power emitted by the Emperor, before they then rushed into the Palace along with the panicked Empresses.
Once they heard that he was sane and not in an uncontrollable state they abandoned what they planned and went inside.
Him being in a bad mood and in an uncontrollable mood were two different things.
Once inside everyone spotted that there was one person with him and that was Verena.
Veshara got strange looks from everyone, they knew if anyone would stay at Dashnells side when he was in a rage it would be a select few of them but all of them expected the one to break their promise to be Veshara not Verena.
Their promise to remain fair to each other over his affection and love as they all remained outside with the rest but Verena who many thought was with them was now below with Dashnell.
They all looked around and indeed they spotted Verena among them.
The Verena they all knew and were with stepped out from the crowd and looked down at herself, only to see she was ignored and they all watched as the Verena below sat across Dashnells lap as he stared blankly forward into nothing.
”Don't Ignore me! Who are you, why.. Why do I feel as if I am part of you.” She asked.
The answer she received was short and followed by a flash of light as the other Verena appeared before her.
”It is time we become one once again, we are, I am! His obsession!
Once we become one again we will regain all that we had to abandon to be with him. Let's hope we are not too selfish and can share as we have been doing all this time.
Before we merge and become one I will tell you our true name, and maybe you can guess who I am. I am sure you can once you do hear it, right Istina!”
Once this name was said both Verenas moved slowly towards each other before becoming a massive blob of energy that nearly pushed everyone out of the massive throne room.
Everyone was watching with bated breath even Dashnell as this was happening.
When the blinding light faded away everyone saw a pitch black beauty that reminded them of Lilly, her black skin possessed scales similar to Dashnells and within her silver eyes were worlds larger than many had ever seen.
They looked deep into her eyes as they watched Creation start and stop repeatedly.
”I am Istina the Oldest God of Creation and Master of the Dragon Emperor's Harem. I great you my dear Sisters you may all refer to me as Verena as it is the first name I shared with him.”
Everyone of the Empresses looked at her with rage while the Generals slowly backed away with the other soldiers that knew better than to stay here.
”If you think you are a better choice for Head of the Harem please get down here and fight me!”
Verena said before she took out a spear that was just as black as her beautiful skin.
The others responded in kind and took out their weapons and looked at each other as they knew whoever won this fight would become the Head of the Harem and most importantly the true Empress.
Before fighting they looked at Dashnell to see him looking at them with a smile on his face.
”You can fight to your heart's content I won't interfere but I want you all to behave after this. I have something to tell you, so don't beat each other to bad.” After saying so he walked into the back of the Palace not wishing to watch the soon to be one sided slaughter.
