Necron: The Legend Of Rezar DeathWind

Chapter 199: The Storm Dragon

"death has not been kind to me, I know who I am, and what I'm doing here, I have lost, my name to the ravages of time and death, and so too my people. It was peaceful, this stretch of the ocean was hidden and isolate from the rest of the world. My people thrived under my protection and I taught them the highest form of magic possible…. well not the highest form, but a unique way to access the power of the universe and bend it to their will, I taught them the tongue of the dragons. And from studying our language they came to understand its meanings, and then they learnt how to write it! Giving them even more power to the point that the world became angry.

Within this stretch of land, power is divided between four elemental dragons, the Black dragon of the canyons with his domain over earth, the white dragon of the mountains with domain over ice, the green dragon of the forest with domain over nature, and then me, the chromatic dragon of the sea with my domain over storms. We stayed out of each other's way and taught the races that served us as best as we could. But dragons are greedy creatures, I alone gave the secret of our magic to the race that served me, and it not only made me an enemy to the other dragons, but it also destroyed my people as that much power made them a target.

Normally a story like this would pretty much end up with me telling you how the other dragons ganged up to destroy and punish me for releasing our most sacred arts to unworthy blood. while that did happen, but my destruction came at the hands of my people, or the few of them who became dissatisfied with what I had given. You see not all dragon magic can be taught to the mortals, there would always be a barrier that they would be unable to cross, but many believed I just wanted to keep the power for myself, and the black dragon was all too happy to whisper to them about my greed.

The rest of the dragons took a passive approach, but it was he who chose to stand against me. He gave them more power, the aspect of our language he had mastery over. And this drew them into his folds, they became his people, the serpents of the sea that crossed over to land, from being my merfolk they became his nagas….and they destroyed my home and let in a poison that took my life. I have grievances that I must see to, but the power to do so is something I lack, and even more so now that I have been resurrected without my full strength. My path to power is now very different from when I was alive, as the storms and waves I command have now taken on an aspect of death.

I must rediscover myself, but in this new world that is coming I also know quite well that they, especially the black dragon would be doing the same. The demoness is fettered by senseless and useless emotions, which means only you, Rezar Deathwind can stand beside me as I take my revenge. I have seen your plans, you intend to conquer the canyons of Toromont, but I assure you, all that awaits you and such a venture is destruction. I will teach you as much as I can and maybe more than what my people could learn and understand, I will need to understand you just as much as you will need to understand me in this new world that's about to dawn, if we are to survive."

Rezar struggled up to his feet, but fell back down completely weakened by the dragon's assault. Lenore came over and helped him up, her face stoic and devoid of embarrassment. Rezar did not push her away, that would have been counterproductive as he needed her help in other to stand and face the dragon that almost threw all of his plans and achievements down a drain. But even with all of this, he was still very obviously devoid of fear as his eyes met that of the dragon and then a soft smile crossed over his face.

"So guess that you're now my teacher?"

"It would seem so... Vampire."

"I am..."

*BOOM! *

The very air itself seemed to vibrate, this was not an earthquake, yes the very earth itself was shaking, but this was not an earthquake, it was like someone took the whole of Elysium, put it in a bottle, and then proceeded to start shaking it like their very life depended on it. The walls of the chamber cracked, water rushed in from the cracks as the chamber became a conduit for sea water and confirmed death if something was not done quickly. The water was coming with a pressure that would smash bones to dust, and while Rezar didn't have that much of a problem, the same couldn't be said for Lenore, he turned to the dragon.

"It Has Begun! The end of the old world and the birth of the new, I can feel it! Now come!"

She suddenly flew upwards, her long serpentine body twirling in the air with her right claw tightly grasping the egg that has been besides her corpse ever since. Her movements created a vacuum that pulled Lenore and Rezar along, her from smashing through rock and earth and soon enough through coral and sea water to burst out onto the surface of the sea and quickly into the air where they could all have a good vantage point of the world coming to an end.

Rezar looked up to the sky to see the second moon of Elysium breaking down into hundreds of different parts that fell down to Elysium in a fiery blaze, but it wasn't just the moon itself. It was too far away to see, but the sky was filled with the flames of reentry into the atmosphere, and then that was when Rezar noticed the cove Necron was built rising up to match the land, and as it rose up, so too did the sea, and from what he could see, Necron was about to be washed away!
