Photo of what I envision Azeail to look like. Well as close to it as I can find.
Chapter three enjoy.

Two months pass with heavy training for Azieal and myself. We both gain knowledge we dierly needed. Mine being the ability to control the darkness never letting it take control of me as it has previously. Azieal is now battle ready able to control his abilities and understands the consequences of those abilities if used wrongly.
Over this time we have grown closer, our bond strong, our souls intertwining together as our heart's beat for only each other. But with each passing day I see a fear settle within Azieal that only my eyes are able to see. A fear that has him taking unnoticed settle steps away from me that go unnoticed by all exacept me. He doesn't notice that I am able to see this and yet it doesn't bother me in the slitest. He doesn't mean anything to me other then my Brother in arms. My companion born from the same abyss as I.
But I am able to see the way his eyes watch me and the way his soul moved aginst mine. His love for me is softly spocken at night when he thinks I am asleep but with each confession of his love to me the more he steps away. The more he shys away from my touch. The more those beautiful eyes that once shine are more and more down cast with saddness that clinches my heart squizing it in pain. But I push this to the back of my mind as I watch him head held high, shoulders back and back straight.
I lye in bed watching him sleep as I curress his cheek gently with my finger tips. I feel something for him yes but nothing like what he had felt for me since my voice brought him to life in the abyss. A knock at the door has me pulling my hand back as is slide from the bed and walk to the door. I open it to find Rize standing their his eyes aiding at my unashamed nakedness. He looks away back down the hall way and coughs into his hand clearing his thoat.

"Fen wishes to see you. Says an army is camped not far from here." Rize says and leaves turning his back to me.
I clothe myself in cloth pants and a tight shirt and head out the door to find Fen waiting for me in the doorstep. I step up beside him looking out over the vast nothingness in the direction he is looking and my eyes home in on the vast army camping just outside our boarder a hundred yerds away. My eyes scan all of the army numbering in the thousands and access their stangth as a hold and each solider as an individual. I look over to Fen away from them finding them unworth of a fight against me and Fen meets my eyes. His eyes show me what his war harden face is unable to, that he to finds these soldiers unworthy of our attention and he nods his head to me. I nod back knowing what he wishes of me. To devour the souls of these unworthy men and satifice the fire for essence within my soul.

I walk with grace away from him my gate full of power as I slide the lid from the box and I am envelopes in the familiar darkness circling around my body. I jump off the edge into the nothingness as I approach the army my darkness spreading around me as it creeps around them, surrounding them. I feel the fear settle in poring from them as they look around themselves.

Hands come from the darkness grabing hold of them as mouths suck the essence from them filling my soul with every filithy thing they have thought and done to those defencless against their assaults. It tast bitter on my tounge as I try swallowing down their filth as the darkness within me pures with each fear soked soul it devoured. I gag on it forcing it down within me satisfing the darkness. Finally the last soul is devoured visiusly as their jugment is set and their punishment for their sins takes place.

I fall to my knees sealing all those filth ridden souls and the darkness away back within the steel box. I lean over vomiting acid filled darkness into the floating slab of sandstone ruins of a time long past. I clinch my andaman with my arms wrapping tightly around them and reach again spilling my darkness laced acid out of me violently.

This is What happens to me when I force the darkness away from me and reject what I really am. Had I not I would have consumed them all with a smile on my face and a sweet taste on my tongue. Fen taught me how to force it down and control it for short periods of time. Causing me to have a bad reaction to it when I let it surface. If I just open the led and let it take full control things would be different. But he wants me pure with no traces of the darkness showing to others around me. It makes my skin burn like acide is being pored on my skin.
