Hours after the meeting, Solomon furthered his research in the powers of the universe. To better understand his newfound allies and their abilities, could further his research.

HE SPEAKS

+++SEARCHER OF THE VILE, SCAVENGER OF THE DEEP, LOOK UPON ME NOW AS YOU DID IN MY TOWER, AND WITNESS THE BENEVOLENCE OF MY EVIL!+++

Solomon tried to speak, but no words were allowed to come out of his mouth. He saw reality bend, break, reform. He felt feelings never felt, fear that didn't exist, emotions that never feel, felt senses that he never felt, and he could see the pure anger and rage from the reality around the being. Fractal energy corrupted his labs, reconstructing the dead veiled in their tubes. The Entity used all four of the powers to bring them back from their graves; raveling the already spun fate; uncurling their worms of time; combining their alternate selves from across the Omni verse, and reforming their once dead souls and mind and body. They had become a creature of something new: a vile distortion of reality and time and space and fate.

+++FROM THEIR DEATHS AND THE INVASION OF THEIR KLOSEG TWIN, I GIVE YOU NEW PURPOSE BEYOND YOUR GRAVE. I GIFT TO YOU ETERNAL LIFE, SIDE WITH THE KLOSEG AND THE SOON TO RECEIVE. JOIN YOUR GODS, AND BEGIN YOUR ETERNAL TITHE TO YOUR LORD, FOLKLAS.+++

+++AND TO YOU, THEIF OF WIVES, REMEMBER WHAT YOU SEE NOW, FOR THIS IS YOUR FATE, AND ALL WHO FALL TO THEIR TWIN IN DARKNESS. SERVE ME, AND I WILL SPARE YOU OF YOUR TWIN AND YOUR CORRUPTION. BRING ME THE CHILD OF THE END. YOU HAVE SERVED YOUR PURPOSE IN THE FLESH.+++

As The Entity spoke, Solomon's shadow became into being. An exact copy of him, identical to the single counts of hairs on his head and body. His twin used his hands, and strangled and killed the true Solomon, and ate his skull. His body, turned into one of those creatures, bowed to The Entity.

HE UNSPEAKS

At the coalition forces regrouped at the ruins of Judas' citadel, they established a beachhead with Alcor, Ira, and Calvin. They knew the Veiled were beginning another ritual to create another God, but had no idea who. In the distance, Judas levitated in his High Priest robes, and his magics of Aether and  Thread were formidable. He sent forth his armies to guard the gates of the ritual, and forced his Angels of Hell to cover the skies and kill every Black Auror that dares to touch their territory.

Calvin gave the order to prepare themselves, and gave a speech :

" Brothers, Sisters in arms! They have come at us with everything they have, and yet we have lost? We have armed ourselves with weapons and power that they claimed were theirs, yet we now have power and control. Our forefathers spoke of our uprising, and our enemies will fear our might, and our children and theirs will tell the story of The Siege of The Citadel! If we die today, let us die as the good men and women who once spilt and smelt the blood of freedom!"

The battalions of soldiers charged, and clashed with the veiled men and Black Aurors with Angels. Aether filled the ranks of the coalition, for they acted as one man with one goal: breach.

Alcor and Ira used their expertise in Symphony to create the beachhead at the gates, and held their ground as Calvin met with them, covering them with his thread of Aether. Many more joined them, and together, they pushed back the hordes of Veiled and Angels and Fractals. They acted as one man, and joined their aetherium souls together for just a moment, to breach and destroy the gates with one punch of Calvin's gauntlets.

Inside, a gigantic blood ritual with at least hundreds of Kloseg and high priests, and one man in the middle. He held a staff of thorns and was merged with an Angel of Hell, perhaps hundreds of them. He screeched, and a deafening silence became of any who heard it.

+++BEHOLD LUCIFER REBORN, WITH THE SLAIN ANGELS BY YOUR HANDS, I GIFT TO YOU THE OTHER EDGE OF YOUR NEW SWORD+++
