I witnessed as Lokkar joined our fight against the remaining troops. I also charged back into the mealy slicing and killing my way to the entrance.I was determined to reach my brother.
It was time to end this
Entering the Reziq(castle) I was shocked to see that a large number of warriors were still guarding the inside
I had honestly thought them all dead already. they came at me from all sides, enclosing me in as i attempted to fight them of. When i was completely surrounded i stopped, but never lowered my sword
A familiar figure emerged bellowing in laughter
My brother
"How pathetically predictable you are and have always been brother" he mocked
I sneered at him "You don't know anything about me!" I spat hatefully
He chuckled
"You are correct my brother would never attempt to usurp me" He growled
"Well that makes two of us. because my brother wouldn't be a heartless maniacal tyrant!" I retorted
He scoffed "Did you truly thing yourself worthy of this throne brother? You couldn't even take out my forces. Your a traitor and your weak!"
I said nothing as he stared at me with a face i could no longer even recognize
"Kill him" he commanded walking away dismissively
Just then the blaring sound of shots echoed thorough the hall. I saw the warriors surrounding me fall away to the ground. Lokkar stalked in a few humans with their blast weapons trailing him
When i turned my brother had gone. I wasted no time charging after him. I wouldn't allow him time to flee
I smelled him hiding in his throne room. His two protectors at his side
A deep scowl accompanied with my rage fueled me. It poured adrenaline into my blood like a drug
I wanted nothing more than to kill this waste of existence, I was ashamed to have ever called him kin
"It's Over! You are the one not worthy of the throne. Face me coward and fight for your so called place as LoQuan royalty!! I roared
"I do not need to do no such thing! i was born for this!" He spat
"As was i. and your time to rule has passed"
He let out a boisterous howl of laughter his face twisted into a sinister smile. He stood to his feet and stepped from his dais
"As you wish however i want you to be very sure of this my brother. Because i take no prisoners and you may end up like our beloved grandfather"
I narrowed my eyes at his threat my eyes glanced breifly around the room as i now realized since the fight began i had not seen him anywhere
"Where is he" i hissed
Another of his nasty chuckle sounded
His protectors joined in. They were just as twisted as he was . I felt two bodies at my back and knew it was Vurzek and Lokkar. But i kept all my attention on my sadistic brother
"Where all traitors go. Bring him here Yutal. The prince wants to see him" he said to one of his protectors
The male disappeared and and a moment later he reappeared throwing a body at my feet
My grandfathers mutilated corpse stared back at me
His body and face so battered it was unrecognizable
