||With my passing this Dark King also dies...||





||With this in mind, i Pass away forever....||























You pass by the bloodied throne upon which the corpse of the stallion you had known so long lay with a heavy heart. You decide to leave this cursed place, feeling those tears at such a meaningless death starting to creep out your eyes. However, as you turn, you see a small wooden table tucked out of the way from the corner of your red-rimmed eyes. Walking over, you see a hand-written letter, that is spattered here and there with strange dark spots you recognize as tear-smudges. On the paper is a list of names, under each of which is a heartfelt letter written by the dead stallion himself.


The letter reads as so.

Oh, dear reader, i must inform you that the evil creature you seek here is gone forever. Never to return, dear friend--do not worry, I will never let it come back.

Dear friends, if any of you manage to read this letter, please know that i wish you would have listenend to me, so that i could have said goodbye to you in person, rather than through a letter. It breaks one's heart to know that one's friends care not enough to notice you when you try to say goodbye, and so i died not only without saying goodbye, but with a broken heart.

Now, i will try to write my goodbyes to those who wouldnt listen when i tried to tell them in person. If you feel the need to know any more than what i tell you, i encourage you to try to seek out my good friend Lanceerreian. He can help you; he was the only one who was fully there for me when i made up my mind to end this sorry, terrible existance.

...Umi, beloved sister,
I cannot begin to express how much i wish i could have gotten to better know you; we spent so little time together it breaks my heart. I wish i would have been able to know you...I regret it so much--but do not fear, with luck, you might be able to glimpse me in this tartarus i know i will end up for this final attempt of mine from where you will be standing in heaven when the day comes that the world shall end. Then perhaps we can share a shouted conversation--if not, well, at least we will have been able to see each other for a final time, aye?

Nel, dearest friend,
I regret that we did not have more time together between when you finally returned from the dead and i decided to rejoin the dead. I do not know what lies ahead, and i must admit i am scared--but what use is it? You did not listen, no-one listenend, and there was no other way--so i faced it. I hope you do not miss me, or do any sort of tearful rubbish--not that i beleive you to be the sort to cry over spilled blood any more than spilled milk. I wish i could have said goodbye to you, at least, but you did not listen and wherefor, my dear, it is now too late. I admit i will indeed miss the bite of your fire, my good friend.

Storm, wise counsil,
I admit that we did not spend enough time together as one would have liked. Did you know you were the last i saw before i came to write this letter? I always respected your wisdom, friend, even though it was not enough to sway my desicion. If you could have prophecised a cure, or triumph, or some more about everything ending up okay--maybe something could have been done...but i beleive it has come out exactly as you said, everything has ended up allright. I'm going to kill him, Storm, and at least one more evil will perish! Is that what you meant, dear friend, when you spoke of hope? I loved it when you spoke of hope, it always hit some string in my soul...

Ryu,
I do not have a fancy after-title for you, and for that i am sorry but afraid to say it is not my fault, for once. You were the first to accept me without scorn, perhaps the only to do so unhesitatingly outside my sister. Oh Lord, Ryukri!! I wish you had not abandoned me so! How much i longed for your presance while i lived! I wish you would not have forsaken me, i missed you more than any earthly soul could miss another. Thoughts of you have brought tears to my disowned eyes, dear child.


The letter goes on, to explain a story with a chilling twist that makes you realize...it is Rik's own life story.


...Why this Fate?...


Once, long ago, there was a tyrant who was the very epitome of evil. He had no conscious, no sense of good; only a searing will to do evil. He found joy in pillaging villages, delighting in the taste of the people's blood. He would approach villages by night, going through the houses and devouring the people, then burning down the place with his dark magic.

The only man that this dark lord respected was Rashar, who was a powerful, hard-hearted man who had mastered every element that had contact with the sky, and therefor was known as the King of Storms. He was, indeed, the king of a wide expanse of land, and he did not like the evil tyrant destroying his villages so. Rashar went out and found the evil lord, Caine, and proved himself to be the Dark One's equal. Then they struck up a deal, where the Storm King gave Caine some land and his promise of peace in return for Caine leaving Rashar's lands alone, ending the ransacking. After this treaty, Caine and Rashar became good acquaintances.

Once, while pillaging a village, Caine came across a woman of such great beauty as to even cause Caine to stop in his tracks at a loss of breath. Lusting after her, he captured her and took her to the castle he had built high in the mountains of the land he had been given and made her his wife.

She was a good woman, with a soul of innocence and goodness, and she never once judged or hated Caine. When she became pregnant with their first child, she went to him and begged him not to inflict his vampiric nature on their child, as she knew he had the power to withhold or bestow that curse. He told her he wouldn't, and she seemed satisfied with his words.

However, when their son was born, Caine couldn't resist and bit the infant, causing therefor the child, named Duizaur, to be a lesser archetype of his father, the Dark King, Caine. Upset with Caine for this, the woman just endured and continued to raise the child without judgment or reproach. This woman, though her name remains unknown to this day, had come to be called Greyes, for Caine said that when he saw her she had 'the biggest gray eyes', as in she always seemed anguished.

Her second child with Caine was a daughter, but a few weeks before she was due she had to be cut out of Greyes' stomach, or else she would have killed her mother; for the child was clawing its way out of the womb. This child was rabid, and did not pick up speech as fast as her brother had, seeming far less intelligent. The daughter was named Shimmyrrh, and seemed to have an odd side effect of her father's race; she would occasionally completely loose who she was and turn into various draconian shapes, one that was the epitome of all her father was.

One day, Shimmyrrh was gone, and Greyes despaired and ran through the castle in search of her tiny daughter, crying out in horror. Then Caine arrived, and told her that he had taken the girl away to some friends of his that would help her.

But truth have it, in his evil heart, Greyes had been working magic, and he had developed a soft spot for her—and seeing her in despair as it was greatly saddened him. The Dark King took it upon himself to try to please her, and went to his studies and discovered a way to make himself human, so that he could have the capacity to be good, and possibly to love. He did this, but the experiment failed to a certain extent.

The experiment did turn him human, but it made him into an infant, instead of turning him into an aged human.

Therefor he began to cry, and Greyes, hearing the sound of a baby, came and found him.

However, she did not realize it was her husband turned into a human baby, and mearly thought it had been some odd gift from her strange Dark husband, and therefor took the child in as her own and gave it the name Rikyr.

As it was, Duizaur was often away from home, and by the time he returned Rikyr was old enough to walk around and play with Rashar's son, Lance, who was but a few years older than the Dark one's human form—in fact, Lance was nearly the exact same age as Shimmyrrh, and as it turns out, Caine had placed her in a strategic location near the Storm King's castle, so Shimmyrrh and Lance were very good friends.

When Duiz returned, his mother told him that rikyr was his little brother. Duizaur was jealous for his father's attention, and sought to be just like his father, even though he really didn't have the capacity to be as powerful, even the kindest soul can become corrupt and become every bit as evil as a Dark One. Duizaur, who was highly intelligent, unknowingly had let his mind become clouded with hatred of his new brother, imagining that his father's absence meant that he had fallen out of favor and been replaced with this new son. So, devising that if he were to get rid of Rikyr, his father would return and love him more again. He had no idea that his father had absolutely never loved him, and had no capacity for love. He had no idea that the little brother he hated was in fact, his father in a new body. Rikyr was not old enough to speak yet, and therefor could not have told Greyes or Duizaur who he was. Duizaur, in a vi for his father's favor, kidnapped Rikyr and brought him to a place where he would then be experimented on for eighteen years.

During this period of his life, Caine's conscious went into a sort of hiatus, a sort of coma. After eighteen years, he had been experimented on so much and for so long that he was perceived dead, and so was dumped out in a wasteland. He, however, was not dead. He woke up, but no longer as Caine; Caine's conscious was still asleep, and so a new conscious began to form, a new life, a new being who shared the body. The new conscious tried to find out who it was, having no memories but the flashing lights and the pain of the experiments that had been conducted on it. It however found others who were not afraid of it, and those others helped to rip out the wires that were sticking out in various places on his body, and discovered the brand from the laboratory that read the numbers 58373, and the new conscious took this as it's name.

He wandered the land in search of some clue as to who he was, and happened to stumble upon the young Prince, Lance. Lance immediately recognized him and told him that his name was, in fact, Rikyr. So 58373, innocent, good, and without any sort of judgmental attitude, took on the name Rikyr. He traveled with Lance, who in turn told him of his love affair with Rik's 'sister', Shimmyrrh, and then how he had run away from her in fear of her father, Caine, and his wrath. He told Rik that his mother, Greyes, had slowly wasted away and died, broken-hearted at her husband's seeming abandonment, and at the fact that all her children had left her and her eldest son had backstabbed her. He told Rik of how his older brother Duizaur had left on a sojourn to find Caine.

Young Rik was overwhelmed by this, and with his surges of emotion he was stirring the spirit of Caine. Soon, Rik fell sick, and during this time Caine broke out of him, awaking inside his conscious, so that it was that two souls existed in one body, fighting with each other. Rikyr, knowing not what Caine was, came to refer to this dark side of him as Snake. Now knowing that Greyes was dead, Caine, renamed Snake, had nothing left which he cared about, and so was inclined to destroy everything in his uncontrollable evil. Rik, who had made many friends, did not want Snake to destroy them all, as Rik was very weak and the Dark King was slowly taking back over his body. Also, to aid in this plight, Rashar had died, and so there was nothing out there that could match and control Snake's prowess, at least, none that anyone knew of in time to help. Lance had nothing of the power of his father, and could only call up rain, which was powerless. So, in a final attempt at saving all those he held dear, Rikyr killed himself, thus killing the evil that was snake and ending the dark threat to his beloved friends, and ending the threat of supreme, heartless evil to the world.
