Another day dawns on the lands of Horus.The sun is rising slowly,sheding its warm bright light on the ebony red tower of the god-hero Seth Dethos.
Who is Seth Dethos,you ask?He was the leader of the rebellion,he went against the numberless armies of Semnon the Headless and prevailed.Not long after Barragh the Brute came charging from the north,but was slowed down by several tricks.Barragh however ruled with an iron fist and had a massive trained and disciplined army,who followed his orders to the letter,for they knew the price of failure.Finally Barragh overcame the magical defenses and the two armies clashed on the field of battle.The Black Legion of Horus and Seth himself fought with great valour,many Wudi died from the deathbolts he fired from his hands and a lot more from his deadly mace,his outstanding kill record earned him the nickname White Devil.Nonetheless the Wudi were like ants,easy to kill but too great in numbers.The Legion retreated and entrenched themselves in what was called the Deadline.For if the defensive line fell,the capital would burn and fall as well.Luckily Seth had a backup plan,Barragh was assassinated and his army was drowned by a giant tidal wave which quickly froze into permafrost ice.It faitfully shows the terror of the drowning soldiers,who are now frozen in solid ice,much like a sculpture.Many artists have deemed it a work of art.Sure most of those artists are in the asylum,but that's not the point.
But that is all history,he disliked dwelling on it and he himself was growing quite old.What was he...1000-1200 or something years old.His young black hair turned into a dull grey color,but he didnt mind it.Prior to the battle in the Neck of Barragh he hasn't donned his battle armor in many years.However being a god-hero wasnt without advantages,he was strong as ever his remarkable age having no effect.The battle armor is collecting dust now and Seth doubted he would get a chance to use it again.
Sun shined upon Seth as he was on the balcony pondering how he got to this world.The god of death Grenth he was speaking to was silent for a long time now,and it came to him that that the god didnt probably exist at all and he brought himself to this world.Seth was as someone once called him an insanomancer,too much casting of insanity spells back in the old world drove him a little mad.But as his powers were drained when he came to this world,so was his madness.Unfortunately his loyal servant Baldrick was not a figment of his imagination.
He looked to the west and could see Bara-Dur,the tower being Black as the Void wasnt too hard to spot.Its construction was slow but steady,soon it would be finished and he would move there.The title of the Arch-Mage of the academy sounded good to him.
What plagued him now though was well the plague.The alchemichal labs in the basement were working 24/7 trying to understand the nature of the plague as well as the undead it spawned.Little progress was being made and that didnt make him feel better.Seth acquired a touch of paranoia,something larger was behind all this,something that has great power.He wondered if all these new nations that rose in the Fall of Wudi were a part of its plan,after all dozens of divided nations are lot easier to fight then an united empire...
His apprentice Katrina then stumbled in,she was young and reminded Seth of himself when he was young,minus the genocides and mass destruction of course.She had black hair,pretty blue eyes and a passion for the dark arts.Katrina was quite beautiful,but deadly.He was close to her and they formed a kind of father-daughter relationship,perhaps compensating for the loss of his son in the Purge of the Old World,who knows but he didnt care.
Katrina:Seth the Torini diplomats have arrived.They have asked for your presence in the Hall of the Majestic Council
Seth: Me? what do they need me for? I'm just an old general.
Katrina: The Majestic Council of Twelve is also there.Torini diplomats said they had an idea.One that will affect you as well as the council.
Seth: Very well.Tell them I will arrive there shortly.
A young artist was painting the sunrise that very same day,he noticed Seth and drew a very a dramatic impression...
Not only do I see diplo, there's a story as well!ruler, things are going to progress like now. Better find a way to deal with it.
Two stories in advance of the update!
