Chapter 9 - Grave

As he unlocked the door using the bloodstained key he noticed something,As he now worn that emblem unknowingly he was now apart of that monster.There she was stood above Eve's grave mourning her just as he did.

"Who are you?"

Startled she answered,unware now another has joined her." You can see me" her face lit up just to grasp the situation.

"Help me change this world" she asked."I can help you reach a world of your choice"

Artorious only now noticed the beast latched across her back to her kneck covering her small, frail body. He wanted a world of his desire ,he wanted to accelrate this existence to a new one of his control.

"How, no one has power of that scale" he asked the girl." I do"

The beast shared in her suffering ,as she couldn't die at piece.A monster that brought on her despair experancied an even greater despair,latched at her side for many years.The three of them dreampt of their on reality.

Silence covered the graves as he put the flower to her grave.

"Are we fit for this role,of god?" he asked them exepting no as a response.They both responded in unison,"Is anyone else".

They returned to the castle.I shall bring this new era fourth the king thought, he created his plans on how to accelrate this world to the next. "What are the driving forces of despair?" He asked the girl and the beast.

Berfore letting the pair think he ansewered his rhetorical question answering himself. "Wars,Religion,...." he listed issues.

His first plan was erdicate war,in order to acomplish this he first needed to unify the world. He created a planed to unify the 5 great empires and the many surronding individual lands,his first target was Limveil.

Limveil was mighty land occupied by elves to the south,it was a small but mighty nation due to the limited population. It was a kingdom ruled and occupied by elves alone,the king knew it would be a ambitous goal to unite with them.The girl and the beast both propsed their ideas.

"I think diplomatic releations, is the best option no blood would be spilled and it could amend humans relestionship with elves.I know the history of oppression the elves experinced but perhaps, peace would brighten the shadows of despair cast upon this world."The girl told the king.

That won't work Artorious thought, he leaned towards the beasts idea.

"Why make peace with them,you plan to unify and accelrate this world. Kill them,kill them all it would remove another speices brining this world closer to unity.The hatred elfs hold againest humans is far to great to put behinf them.Killing them would show your power to other nations,this worlds opinion of you is relevant we'll create a new one."

He argued her method with issues and soultions furthering the kings influnce towards his beliefs.He made his choice in order to eradicate conflict from this world,he would have to dirty his own hands in more blood.

She didn't try to convince otherwise.He iniated his plans to conquer a third land in his reign.He spent weeks researching Limveil the land of the elfves,it was a small due to elves long lives it wasn't neccesary to reproduce early in their lives.

This gave brith to a small but might population of elves blessed with magic.

He learned everything he could about Limveil,from any sources availble.He created a plan do exterminate all the elfves and come closer to unifacation.

He spent the following weeks preparing for this day,even with the knowledge he gained there was still much they didn't know about Limveil.His attack was focused around the elfves primary weakness of loud noises because of their enchanced hearing.

No matter how inhumane the method,he decised he would do anything for his world.

The young girl and the beast latched to her supported and tried to stop his idea's.The girl acted as his humanity, the beast dragged him further away from his humanity.Although they all shared the same goal their reasons and actions to achieve it greatly opposed eachothers.

She was againest his plan,she belived it wasn't neccesary and was not the vision of her world."Why do you want to play god?" She asked."God,there is no g0d,I only want the world in my view."

Isn't that acting as he god she thought to herself isn't erasing this world a power of god,this world may be imperfect but is his.
