The Empires of Terra

OOC Sanukdarok is an Ork but he also has elemental powers. Of air.

Sanukdarok waited until the king had finished his prayers. He then repeated the message so that Turak could understand.

The Empires of Terra

Once again a portal opened in Xian, but this time on the grounds of peace, and had nothing to do with Xian, but Arbiteros. Sanuksarok The Voice, as he had been named, after he had been made a Dru of air, stepped out in from of King Turak. Shedanaran had given him a gift as well, although not a sword but a ring. A ring that allowed the understanding of all languages. Sanukdarok wasn't particularly thrilled about being a messenger, but the scholar inside him was excited about the possibilities that came about from knowing all languages, so he remained obedient. Sanukdarok did not bow, as they were of equal rank, 'King Turak' (OOC does Arbiteros have a native language? If so what is it called and Sanukdarok spoke in it, if not then he just spoke common tongue) Sanukdarok said 'I am here to discuss the formation of an alliance between Ocrad and Arbiteros, as Shedanaran, and me in fact, see you as strong as you are already, unlike most humans. We offer peace in exchange for whatever knowledge you have of resurrection and immortality. Also if you give us this knowledge and we manage to gain what we want with it, you will be one of the first to know and receive the products'. Sanukdarok waited for his answer.

The Empires of Terra

Prepare for impending war with Ocrad Shemk, as we begin our conquest of the world.

Drikdarok rode back again, letter in hand. He didn't need to walk far however, before a portal enveloped him and he appeared in Garkunig, in front of Shedanarans throne. At first he was surprised, but then he saw where he was and whom he was near. He bowed to Shedanaran and handed him the letter. 'Totubodukan, eros sadek (not a complete alliance, but good)' Shedanaran mused and to Drikdarok said 'Kadsadek, drika unhzadeuk? (do you want me to change you?)'. Drikdarok had heard of the powers and strength that Mol had gained through the changing, and Mol was a human 'Orun' he said excited. 'Orun' Shedanaran said and put him to sleep. This time he was going to do something different. He had acquired some friends in hell, a group of demons from various clans had made a splinter group to serve him. They numbered only 5,000 but some of them were almost as powerful as him and so were going to be used on Drikdarok. He summoned an Earth Demon. 'Shedanaran' he said as he came through the portal 'barkoth (speak, similar to orkish language as you could tell but it is a different language)'.
Shedanaran replied 'Drikdarok unlthokythuth, Drikdarok kathylthokyt unlhuth, lorut? Drikdarok kathylthokytkud drythlisathylkathu.(Drikdarok wants me to change him, I want you to, yes? Change him into an earth Dru)'.
The earth demons, who's name was Gargatha replied 'Lorut, unlhaathyl (yes I will do)'. They brought Drikdarok to a stone platform, the same one that Mol was changed on and began.

Approxiamtely 5 hours later (this took less time because they were just giving him magic).

Drikdarok opened his eyes. He felt largely the same, that is until he touched the ground. He made a dent in it and he could sense that it was, afraid of him? He knew that Molkarg could use fire so he tried shooting a fireball out of his hand. Instead a rock floated up beside him and flung itself in the direction that he was trying to shoot. Drikdarok smiled, he had the power of earth.

The Empires of Terra

Drikdarok was annoyed. Here he was being ordered around by a former human! And a slave at that, his slave in fact! But in truth he was glad. There was a reason to declare war now, and against Xian too, whom had been unbreakable since the second age. He rode on his long-strider back to Xian. In truth he only had time to stay in Bubgruk for a few days before he got an order from the High Darok. He had complained of course, about how he could just announce it on one of the border cities and they'd deliver the declaration for him, but he supposed that was dishonorable, and Sanukdarok seemed to think so too. So he rode back to Nanking to Deliver a message. It read.

To Ling, Emperor of Xian
The Great Empire of Ocrad officially declares full-scale war on Xian. Know that our army to has demons and we won't be defeated by the likes of you! You thought the Demon Lord was making empty threats? Well then come onto the battlefield against us and see how empty they were!
Sanukdarok

A small note was attached to the bottom, it read.

Ling, I give you one more chance to join me, you and me both know you cannot hold out against my and Theolagius' armies together, so I offer you one more time. Utter the words 'Shedanaran unhzero' and the war will end, I even offer to fight Theolagius on your side. But reject this and I will make sure that we fight personally.

The Empires of Terra

Shedanaran pulled his hand back 'You are perhaps more ignorant than I at first thought, emperor' Shedanaran spat. 'You will know soon, when Theolagius' armies are on your doorstep, then you will realize that humans care for nothing but themselves, think about why they summoned you in the first place, for personal gain!' with that Shedanaran walked through a portal. Dru Shikhdub appeared in Molkargs hands and he then entered the portal as well, with the book. Molkarg dropped a note as he left however, and the portal shut. The note read 'Drika unhsusa'. It was a spell and when Ling read it he saw a vision of the future through Molkargs eyes. He was leading an army against an opposition made up of humans and demons. The vision ended, but a blink into the future.

Garkunig, Hell.

A portal opened at the foot of Shedanarans throne. He climbed up and sat down in it. He spoke to Molkarg 'Nildug kadzero, Sanukdarok kadtako (you go to Nildug, speak with Sanukdarok)'. Molkarg nodded, and a portal enveloped him once again.

Great Hall, Nildug, Ocrad.

Sanukdarok was reading oddly enough. He had always been interested in history and was thinking of writing a book himself. He would wait until his retirement to do that however, as he had other matters to attend to. He was reading on of the most famous books written by a Dru: Slasha's History Book, which could be found in both Druka and Common Tongue translations. He was reading about the battle of Garknuk when he saw a strange light out of the corner of his eye. He turned his head, and saw a large Ork step into his hall out of some king of portal. Sanukdarok stood up and took out his ax 'Hanara kadhaa'an, hanara kugeto! (Do not do magic, it is forbidden)'. Molkarg smiled at him, this ignorant Dru, he will soon see that he was meant to use magic 'Sanukdarok, unhtare Slashahogughtakh kadgargo, Slashahogughtakhtuhan, eros Dru Shikhdubtuhana (Sanukdarok, I see you are reading Slasha's history book, it is interesting, but Dru Shikhdub is more interesting)'.
'Dru Shikhdub kartu (Dru Shikhdub is lost)' Sanukdarok replied.
'Aran (no)' Molkarg said and took Dru Shikhdub out from a cloak which Shedanaran had given him. He placed it on the table 'Gargo (read)' he said to Sanukdarok. Sanukdarok opened the book and Shedanaran spoke to him 'UnhShedanaran, unh kadkaekhutou, Dru Shikhdub gargo, Totudage kaddana, Molkarg kadtakogh (I am Shedanaran, I am your creator, read Dru Shikhdub and Molkarg will speak to you)'. The vision faded and Sanukdarok looked at Molkarg before reading.

10 Minutes later.

Sanukdarok looked up from the book. He bowed to Molkarg and then said 'tako (speak)'.
'Totudage kadtotu, Shedanaran kadtotu, Drugh inushigh (join the Totudage, join Shedanaran, we will kill the humans)' Molkarg said.
'Orun (yes)' Sanukdarok said and saluted.

OOC The armies of Ocrad will now prepare for war.

The Empires of Terra

'I was weak in my former life, it was because of that that I was a slave, if everyone was united under the same banner, and if humans were made Dru, there would not be a need for slaves. Slaves are but the weak being conquered by the strong, but if everyone was strong, then there would be no slaves'.
Shedanaran could see that Ling did not understand, perhaps he needed to appear in person. A red portal opened up and Shedanaran stepped out in his true form. Molkarg turned and bowed to him before standing by his side. 'Ling, you spend your days appeasing weak humans. Why should we be oppressed by them? You lead them yes, but you cannot return to Hell, you cannot reveal your true form. Instead you are stuck in that form so that the humans are not afraid. If you join me you will stand by my side as our legions march to claim Terra and give the humans immortality and strength. We will rule over Terra, and then Hell, everything will be under our rule and we can make peace. Look at Theolagius, all they want is to kill us, and Arbiteros, home to the few humans smart and strong enough to survive death, shouldn't we reward them for that? You were almost killed by a human and you still feel the need to pander to them'. Shedanaran showed Ling a vision of inside Garkunig, under it as well, where he ruled. Many fire demons were there, all in their true form. They were happy and mighty. Shedanaran said 'look at them, my people, if you join me we could make the humans like us, perfect the Dru to make them as powerful as demons. You have few friends among humans, all they are likely thinking about is overthrowing you, but you have many friends among demons, my people would give you the respect you deserve and they to feel sorry for the weakness of mortals. Molkarg was once human, he is now Dru and he is much happier. He knows that if he is oppressed, challenged, that he can fight back with equal odds. All humans deserve this right do they not? If you ally with me now all suffering will end' Shedanaran stretched out his hand.

The Empires of Terra

'But would it really? Humans are weak, pathetic creatures, by Shedanarans grace I ascended to Dru, but there are still many. We need to kill or transform any humans so that they may be mighty creatures. And Shedanaran doesn't just want to assert dominance over the Humans and Terra, but also over Hell. Thing about it Ling, Demons and Dru ruling together over both worlds, Hell and Terra would be at peace and would prosper. Sometimes to create you must first destroy'. Molkarg added, his eyes burning bright, in fact they were very bright, glowing now. Suddenly Shedanaran spoke to Ling in his mind, in common tongue 'You wish to help the humans and give them immortality, the Dru wish to be immortal. If we work together we can make both immortal, and make the humans into mighty Dru so that they would not die easily. They would live forever and be unable to die like us. You are young but wise, so don't you agree?'

The Empires of Terra

I'll change it now k.

The Empires of Terra

'Hmm, what you are telling me contradicts a bit with what Dru Shikhdub has in it. The Totudage were mostly fire demons, about 75% of them were, and the other faction, the Bagutoga, was the name they gave to the other demons that didn't join them. Some elemental demons didn't join them as well but since the revolution was led by a member of the fire clan, Shedanaran, a lot of the members of that clan followed out of honor, whereas member of the other elements followed out of hatred of the other demon races. Because of this, the Bagutoga's superior numbers and diversity, the Totudage were losing the battle. But when they felt that they should surrender, Shedanaran discovered a magic that could change a beings physical form. He surfaced to Terra through Garkunig and found Ocrad teeming with humans of different races, some similar to that of Xian, another similar to that of Theolagius and perhaps Arbiteros and another race which were comprised of magicians and craftsmen and had much knowledge of hell. This race Shedanaran led to hell, and most of them came willingly. Those who didn't formed their own tribe, allied with the goblins and drove the other races of humans out of Ocrad. This is the race the Dru fought in the Battle of Garknuk. The ones that had followed Shedanaran became Dru, but they were shorter and weaker than the Dru of today, but also more potent in magic. They were used like an army of demons, using magic, not weapons to destroy their opponents. A lot of the Dru became angry however, that they had been deceived and were being used as pawns by the Totudage. So they rebelled, not all of them mind you, but enough to disrupt the Totudage enough that the Bagutoga overran them. They fled to Terra, demons and Dru, which is when the Dru escaped. They made a pact with the Bagutoga and killed off a lot of the Totudage in Terra. The remaining, 500 odd Totudage fled to Garkunig and made a fortress there. Most think the Dru went to Garkunig first because of their fascination with fire, but in reality it was so the Totudage would not escape. Over the 1000 years of seclusion, where the Dru were made stronger to counter any threat from the Totudage, they also forgot the true nature of Garkunig. It is not a mountain, it is a fortress. When it is active the Totudage are preparing for war, which is why is was active for 1100 years, almost until the destruction of Nildug. Your people are most likely demons on the side of the Totudage that either surrendered to the Bagutoga, or escaped the Dru and conquered hell in a second attack. But one thing will disturb you, whether you are allied with the Totudage or against them. Garkunig has been active for 2 years, the Totudage are preparing for war and Shedanaran wants your help, he wants to take hell and Terra and assert the Elemental Demons dominance'.
