Christopher Choldis wandered through the small city of Panshaw. Chris handed out some of the books people had bought from his close friend. Henry Krystal was a reaper who could see into the future and lives in between the realm of the dead and the living. He writes everything he sees in his visions, hears from the spirits, and then he’ll sell a few of them. Though most are kept secret. Some even from Chris. Because Henry was a reaper he was often mistaken to be some sort of dark and wicked figure. Though, he was well known for being a kind and caring man all throughout his time. As long as you responded with the same or if you were Chris.
Both Chris and Henry have what is called a dragon heart crystal. Only two can be made by dragonborn like Chris. The purpose of the crystal is to connect two separate beings. If one of them were to die the other would slowly decay, if one of them got hurt the other had the possibility to acquire the same injuries, they gain the ability to communicate telepathically, and they can track each other with it.
Chris strolled into the library with confidence, “Hey sweets!”
“Hello Chris,” Henry said, not looking up from the book he was writing in, “I’m a bit busy but did you need something?”
“I want to make a deal with you. How about it, sweets?”
Henry snapped his attention towards Chris, “A deal?” He questioned.
Chris grinned, not hiding his blade-like teeth. He began striding in Henry’s direction and offered his hand. The red pupils in his eyes almost glowed against his black sclera. The other man looked hesitant.
“I want you to join me Henry,” Chris spoke softly.
Henry turned away and walked to his desk. He sighed, “Chris. You know very well I would never join you in hurting others,” Henry explained, “I’ve seen what it has done to the underworld. But I won’t prevent you from doing that.”
Chris snarled while turning away. Henry eyed him as he opened the door and trudged out of the building. Unfortunately for Henry, Chris knew who would be willing to join him.
Everyone jumped when Chris came bursting into the Prison of Souls, “Good Stalal! Chris what in the world?” Peony shouted while stumbling back.
Spirit, Peony, and Fae were the members of C.R.O.W. and were known to be a fairly calm family of the deer monster Fae, the forest dweller Peony, and the vampire Spirit. Heather, a water ghost and Alice, a naga were elite members of The Guard. Hugo was head of The Guard and he would report about the prison’s status to Henry, who was considered the boss.
“Are you guys up for some fun?” Chris asked with a smirk and a chortle.
The members of C.R.O.W. glanced at each other and smiled as they had joined him a few times already in secret. The Guards on the other hand, looked hesitant. Every single one of them worked under Henry. Slowly one by one, they all agreed to join Christopher as long as their names didn’t get out.
The group became feared by any small village whether it was inside or outside of the border. People were killed and towns burnt to ashes. Chris watched as people screamed, ran, and died. Nobody survived long enough to report the criminals. He loved the feeling of power over humans.
Blood covered his white outfit and his hands. Three young children were huddled in a corner. Two were twin brothers of African descent. The girl was of Asian descent and looked to be about 2 years older than the twins. Chris slashed at the girl.It went through her. The three smiled and Chris knew who he had just tried to kill. These were Shades and Shines. Mirror ones like the head of the prison guards, Hugo.
They were already dead.
They vanished for a second and before he had time to react they stood in the distance. They were tall black and white entities. One was half white, half black, had four arms, and four eyes. The other was taller. She had eight wings, dark sclera with a faded white for pupils, and her dress and hair were shadowy.
