Once upon a time, in a kingdom of fantasy, dreams, and more importantly nightmares, a king by the name of Macar the Malevolent ruled his kingdom with an iron fist. He once was a great king, revered by all. He was almost worshipped as a god by his citizens, but he soon started to believe he was truly a god. The power had gone to his head, and that allowed for the evil to seep into his soul.
He soon began to claim he was, in fact, a god. He believed he was to be worshipped and praised as the peoples one and only true god.
As most people would the citizen's revolted against their now deemed insane king. Though their uprising did not last long; for they didn't know that Macar had done something so horrible that the people believe it to be the greatest sin ever committed by a mortal soul.
Macar had dabbled in extremely dark magics. He had performed a blood ritual, and it had connected him to the realm of demons and monsters.
It was there that he had made a deal with a powerful demon, that very same demon would then go on to give Macar the power to annihilate all those who stood in his way, but in return Macar would feed the demon the souls of anyone he slays.
Macar killed hundreds. Entire towns were destroyed and all the poor souls whether from the rebels or innocents got fed to the demon.
The souls made the demons power grow and in turn Macar's power continued to grow. He soon became unstoppable and the people lost hope.
The people could not take the loss of their homes and loved ones so they began to worship Macar as their god. The rebel groups faded into the background, rarely starting fights to end Macars rule, and when they did they were devoured by Macars demonic powers. Their souls never to find peace for they will be forever trapped in the belly of the demon.
The people of Somnia continue to live in fear, always looking over their shoulder for they do not want to be the demons next meal. They are to scared to pray to their god, scared Macar will find out and punish them, but when they do they pray that their turmoil and suffering will come to an end. That someone, anyone will save them from the madman they used to look up to and adore.
Their prayers have yet to be answered, and the darkness continues to loom over them. Maybe one day a hero will come save them all.
