The battlefield lay strewn with the remnants of the once formidable Imperial force. The sun's dimming light cast a harsh glare on the aftermath of the chaos unleashed by Jonn's Arousal Control ability. Lust had turned Emperor Tarthis' disciplined ranks into a writhing mass of carnal desire. Now, as the fog of war lifted, the Emperor surveyed his crippled forces.
Tarthis, hair was matted and his white skin smeared with the grime of battle. He stood atop a rise overlooking what was left of his command. The scene was one of both loss and unexpected triumph. Many of Tarthis' forces lay dead but the Dread Sorcerer Fade, a sorcerer he has wanted to capture for as long as he could remember, had been captured, his unconscious body found laying next to his former queen-turned-succubus Marra. Tarthis could barely look at her, look at what she had become. Her once innocent face now lewd mess. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍
Tarthis kicked Fade on the side. Fade groaned and rolled onto his back. His heavy eyelids fluttered open.
"It's been quite some time Fade. I haven't seen you since the conquest." Tarthis looked down upon his battered foe. "Your skills were invaluable in helping me take all of Adearath, and for that I should thank you." Tarthis kicked Fade's side eliciting a groan as he clutched his side. "But you just had to try and usurp me. After everything I had done for you. But taking Marra from me. That was low, even for scum like you." Tarthis spit on Fade.
"Urgh…" Fade let out a wheeze.
"Save your breath Just. I want to hear you scream when I personally debrand you." Tarthis scorn had a hint of pity for his former brother in arms.
As the Emperor continued his taunting Aurra, Rike, and Garth had begun the evacuation of the wounded. As the sun continued to drop below the horizon, Tarthis continued to stand triumphantly over Fade's battered body.
"Do you have nothing to say to me!?" Tarthis yelled.
Fade looked up at the Emperor, the one he had seeked to depose for all these years. He knew it was over for him.
"I do… have one thing… to say to you." Fade forced the words through clenched teeth.
"Go on then. Say your peace." Tarthis prepared to hear Fade last lucid words.
"I'm going to hell… and I will need some company." Fade activated the explosives beneath himself and Tarthis. Bits of Fade and Tarthis reached as far as the gates of the Dread Tower.
