Born Of Void And Spirit

Arc 0.4

  An Auburn Spark of War

Kastle Kadr,the Ruler of Desolatia is within his Meeting Hall, marshaling his Kadr Krew of warriors,mages,and quadpedal Beasts for the the hoards of blue-eyed Monstrosities that now surrounds his Domain.
Kadr stood at the stage of the meeting with violet flames in his eyes,more enraged than fearful of his enemies.

"Our Realm is under attack!"
he roared to his troops.
"We need to protect it from these wretches at all costs!"

He look toward the towering Automaton that stood by his side.
Standing at over 12 feet tall with a green square body,a round and asmall head with a miniature,single barrel tank on top of his head,the mechanical man was among Kadr's most powerful Krew members.

"Tankton, how is the Barrier holding up?"

The Automaton's optical lens generated violet light as he gave out his report.

"The Rogues have managed to deplete 30% of the Barrier's Magical Energy..."
he informed his Master with a harsh,brutal voice.

Kadr's surly scowl quickly changed into a confident grin.

"Pfft.Weaklings.We can handle them easily."

"...Now they have depleted 40%..."
Tankton continued without a sign of either fear or confidence.

Kadr's grin faltered slightly as he asked,

"Huh?Really?"

Not too long after the Ruler of Desolatia's words escaped, the sound of a tremendous earthquake rattled many of the Kadr Krew members to their core.
Kaiser Kadr(and the more fearless members of his army)remained still and calm,but the fury and bloodlust in his eyes is unmistakable.

"Now 70% is..."
Tankton continued before Kadr raised his claw to signal the machine to cease speaking.

"Enough,Tankton,"
the gigantic Monarch commander,dark purple energy enveloping his claws.
"We will attack now."

"I'm with you to the end,Kaisy,"

Patrisha stated,her pink armor making her small body look bulkier than it is.
"We're not going to let these Rogue rubes push us around!

"Right,mate,"
a  tall,stone-skinned General named Axil seconded,her lithe frame clad in gold armor.
"We're going to kick their arses!"

Kadr raised his claw in approval,causing the magical energy around it to violently expand in size.

"Right,Axil!We're not showing these things any mercy!They need to learn once and for all what happens when you mess with Desolatia!"

Even as the sound of the Barrier that surrounds Kastle Kadr collapsing caused another tremor to occur,
Kaiser still rallied his troops with the seasoned valor of a competent Commander of his army-which he is,believe it or not.

"Kadr Krew,you know what to do!"

Indeed,they did.
They turned from their leader and marched out of the Meeting Hall to meet their adversaries in the ground level of the castle.
The Ruler of Desolatia leaped from the podium to follow suit,but a small, inconspicuous bird with a singular bitterblue eye flew into the Hall and roosted on top of the podium,it's gray-blue feathers bristling.

"Hello,Kogre,"
the bird said in a dry,strong voice dripping with unbridled malice.
"Are you enjoying your last breaths of air?"

Kaiser drew his attention on the bird,his anger fresh and the aura that surrounds his claws even more so.

"I saw you before,"
he noted,cracking his knuckles with his fingers alone.
"You would watch us from the window you just flew in."

"Indeed,"
the bird Familiar mused,tilting his head in response.
"Yet you and your peons never suspected a thing.Sir Drewun was right to have you slain by my talons.
Such idle stupidity should not exist in this Universe."

"Flock off,you overgrown Cluckatoo!"
Kadr retorted in a warning tone.
"Before I put you in the oven and make you for my Third Dinner!"

The Bird cackled in a self- assured,mocking manner.

"The only thing you will make,Kogre,is
a fine display of Regulon's power when your severed,curred head is seen on the top of a pole."

The Bird stretched out his magnificent wings before going under a rapid transformation that resulted in a massive avian monstrosity with
enlarged teeth,cruel talons,and a bright auburn plumage that form an emblem of a spherical entity with a singular white eye at the center of his great chest.

"I,Auburn Spark, shall trigger the beginning of the great flame that will burn the sloth and hedonism that have taken ahold of this forsaken Realm!"

With a terrible war cry that resembled a cross between a humanoid scream and the call of a predatory bird,Auburn Spark spread it's wings to their fullest length and unleashed a powerful wave of fire and destruction apon the defiant,grinning Desolatian Ruler.
