On an island South of the main continent Unida Libera, the demons and monsters of the land were letting out their battle cries and screams of an unquenchable thirst for blood as a massive being the size of a mountain appeared from a castle that pierced the heavens with its gothic architecture whilst the beast bellowed like a massive horn letting out a war call. The creatures wild behaviors had subsided while the creature began to speak in a voice as demonic as the pits of underworld, it said the following to it's followers, "My loyal servants, you have served me under the cover of shadows for many centuries. For each death you have committed I have but only gratitude and pleasure from each drop of blood you have spilled from the pitiful creatures that defy my will. Let each child born from a transgressor suffer the wrath of my fathomless hatred and loathing for the worshippers of the light and justice. For what is justice when one of my own cannot be accepted as an equal while they slaughter many of our own! I give you your newest ruler and mighty queen, my daughter Princess Alexandra Infernus!" He roared as they opened curtains behind him made of human skin, but to his shock there was no one behind them.

The Demon Lords eyes began to darken with wrath, he then released a giant boom of anger and then toss a demon into the crowd causing an explosion which scattered many limbs and chunks of flesh around the area. The Demon Lord cried out towards the dark void in the sky, "ALEXANDRA!!!" as the army prepared to search for her.

In the continent of Unida Libera, the demon princess Alexandra was flying through the cloud iridescence with her wide and crimson dragon wings, feeling the cool air moisture bathe her skin along with the rainbow colored, warm daylight as her red eyes marveled at the beauty of the humans land that she has heard of for so long. It was like a dream as she saw the green, lush lands scenery and the sapphire blue seas that appeared to go on for miles. As she flew by the forests the birds and small dragons flew with her. She let out a happy scream and dive bombed towards the earth, plummeting like a comet before shooting fast across the land like a speeding arrow making the grass underneath her fly around. Unbeknownst to the demon girl, an assassin was lurking ahead of her flight path ready to ambush the unsuspecting victim. As Alexandra was ready to land she slowed down her flying just enough for the assassin to fire off a bolt of lightning magic to stun Alexandra and send her hurtling into a tree.

  She had the air knocked out of her lungs as she crashed back first into the tree feeling her wings fold and ache in pure agony as she slid down onto her side and coughed up blood. Her assailant appeared before Alexandra as her vision was foggy, only making out a figure wearing a midnight blue cloak and holding a pair of knives that glowed with crackling electricity. The attacker kneeled down to examine her, she seemes like a normal girl to her but she saw the shadow made by her wings she couldn't see. "Demonic disguise talismans? Please sweet fool, the eyes of Relampago do not fall for such simple tricks. Yes I can see your minds sparks, the nerves show you are a powerful demon. Your kind fetch a nice price on the market, I will sell you off, maybe a nice slave trader will make you a whore for those Hell worshippers." Said the assassin with a voice that was altered by the lightning magic surrounding her body. As soon as she reached out to tear off her talisman, a sudden feeling of an incoming attack forced her body to jump away to avoid an arrow that grazed her leg. "Damn I'm not alone, show yourself!" She yelled out conjuring a field of static around her body that began to fire out strings of energy in random areas to smoke out the savior of the demon. A sudden plume of smoke surrounded the open field around her as three arrows flew out and hit the ground around her. She laughed at the failed attempt to kill her as she shot lightning at the source of the arrows but only to see her massive attacks were simple sparks of low power. "What's the matter? Feeling drained?" Asked a male voice as he laughed back at her, firing more arrows around her that seemed random until she was too late to realize her lighnting powers were sapped gone!
