After getting approval from Jedi-Knight, I post his work about upcoming merge. You are free to write continuation or something completely different related to the merge.
"The Mithril miners were going about their daily work when one of them hit against something solid. Brushing aside the earth, they soon found an enormous pair of Obsidian doors towering above them.
Noisy chatters ensued, and the general consensus amongst the miners were that behind those doors, there must be hidden treasures. Greed overcame caution and they proceeded to break the 666 locks and talismans protecting the doors. Not a split second passed after the last talisman was torn down was a thundering roar heard from villages near and far, followed by the spine-tingling screaming of fear. Then.. silence.
As prophesied by the Sages, Abaddon, the father of all evil, the ancient evil that even the Twin Gods feared, had been freed from its infernal prison.
Soon, the Empire Capital was under siege by Abaddon and his multitude of hellish minions. The battles were barbaric and bloody. The warriors of the Empire Capital fought and defended bravely but with each passing day, their numbers diminishes.
Grudgingly acknowledging that her army might have finally met its match, and that her kingdom may soon fall into evil hands, the Empress of Empire Capital was left with only one alternative - to seek assistance from her estranged sister, the Empress of Great Capital.
She ordered one of her lieutenants to scurry over to Port City and activate the secret beacon inside the Lighthouse. The lieutenant carried out Her Majesty's instructions and upon activation, the lamp of the lighthouse began to turn red.
Meanwhile, over at Great Capital, the Empress's dinner was interrupted by one of her generals, who whispered into the Empress ears, "The lighthouse over at Empire Capital is emitting red light, your Majesty!"
The Empress' eyes froze momentarily. Upon regaining her composure, ordered her general to hasten to the lighthouse in Misty Coast and activate the secret beacon in response.
The Empress knew this day would come, just as the prophets have predicted. If Empire Capital falls, her kingdom would be next. The joint decision with her sister (before they became estranged) to build the lighthouses as a form of communication between the 2 great Empires has finally proven to be a wise one.
The Empress of Great Capital looked skywards and whispered a silent prayer. After years of training, it is time for her mighty lords to prove themselves in the battlefield.. in the battle to end all battles ! Their very existence depends on it.
Then, Lord Jedi-knight awoke, perspiring profusely. He has been having this exact same dream for the past weeks. He begins to wonder if this was some sort of heavenly sign (warning?), that some impending danger of immense magnitude was about to befall the Empire.
He can't shake off the feeling that very soon, his life, and that of every citizen of Grand Capital, will change forever. The question is - Will it be for the better... or worse. " |
