History

"Its been a long time since then, I believe past centuries, all I know its old. And I remember that day well still, I may look young, but trust me, as I am, we don't really 'age' in that matter of sense. We do get older, just don't look it. Anyways, I'm not here too tell you about that, I'm here too tell you of my past, come on, gather with the rest. Now lets see, You all know whom Satan is right? He goes by the Devil, Satan, Lucifer, all those names. I happened too be his first in command, head hauncho of his vast and powerful army. This army was going too reclaim the heavens as their own, and share great wealth and power, so he said, and I was just as happy as the rest.

Now the only thing is, there was no way of heading up too the human realm easily. There was timing involved. We had too force our way through the barriers that prevent us from ever returning from the surface. However, when the sun was hidden by the shadows of the moon, our realms came dangerously close too over lapping. This was the chance we had, so when the signal was given, all of us gave one hefty push, too break the barrier that blocked us from entering the world of light. It was like glass breaking all over, the barrier shattered due too the force given, we were free of its shackles.

It was war time, Us against the humans, we attacked by surprise, since demons don't really have honor or anything. Our goals were clear, take over the major land marks too surround the castle, and then take the castle as our own. I lead the assault with a raised blade, the guards and army's they had were no match for our superior powers, weapons, strength. Now, I don't mean too brag about it, but truthfully, the bloodshed was mostly on their side, in no time it was clear we were on the road of victory.

For my tremendous victory, and my ability too get the castle surrounded so quickly, I was awarded a ceremonial blade. It was said the dark purple energy came from an unstable mix of both holy and dark energy, the blade fused them together and created one unique power. I could feel it vibrate in my hand. It was my greatest honor back then, and and I held it with pride, some even said I surpassed the powers of even the Devil. However, I doubted this, he knew how too keep even the strongest of foes under his command, I did not want too risk it. So, I declined these rumor, and volunteered too scout the fields for any powerful opposition.

That...is when I met him. There was an old man in robes coming towards me, my new blade thirsted for blood, yet he did not flinch. His cain tapped the ground and he looked at me, gray beard and bushy eyes. I said too him "Turn human, be away from this, the castle will soon be ours, and the heavens shall house us demons for eternity." He was not running, but he had heard, I could tell. Slowly, he pulled from his robes a ball, it glowed like my blade, I became curious, and yet more steady. He said too me "Do you believe in balance? I do hope you do."

I did not understand, but as he approached, I got ready for combat, but he would just snicker, and shake his head. "That blade there, is a form of balance, notice how the good and evil intertwine too one, the only reason it shakes, is because there is more evil then good" he explained. I took another look at my blade, and then at his ball, his ball did not rattle or shake, yet it was the same as my blade. I asked him how he had known, and he asked me a question. "Do you trust me enough too show you?"

What choice did I have? I followed him of course, I had too trust him, clearly he had power that was beyond me, so I followed, refusing would be too kill myself, and potentially ruin the entire invasion itself. Ironic, considering how it changed my view. he told me too envision what I thought I saw int he future, I saw demon prosperity, power, ruler ship, wealth, greatness. What I got was nothing of that, he showed me what was in store in the future if things continued this way. Barren lands, demons fighting others in cults, war spread, senseless death. It was a horrible vision.

"Do you understand now? Evil cannot exist without good, nothing but chaos would spread too the lands. This is engraved in your sword and my ball, Do not forget this" He said. I asked him what I could do too stop this. I wanted too show Satan what would happen, I rushed too tell him what was going too happen, I never ran so fast. I came back, late from the scout, the demons were worried about my panicked look, I told them I must see Satan. He was in the back, readying for the final assault against the castle and the kings best men. I came in, interrupting him rudely. But the information I had was vital, I told him, and he sat back too listed.

I explained my visions and what would happen, i told him all about it, but he merely laughed it off. "Fellow demon, what you saw was fable and nothing else, a dream, surely when we get too the heavens the place will not fall apart, you cannot back down from this victory. We have but one last place too take, and it's all ours. You and everyone else will share in the prosperity." I tried too tell him again from his dark booming voice, but he got annoyed, and ordered me out. I refused, and drew that blade I held, the one of good and evil, it no longer vibrated.

But it was too much, four generals and Satan were more then enough too do me in. I had committed the ultimate treason, as punishment, I was struck with a curse, banishing me from the demon realm for eternity. I was tossed out too be picked by the guards, or bird, whichever wanted me dead first. But instead, I was carried, too a small outpost away from the castle grounds. I would awake, weak with barely, if any power in me. I looked too my left, the ball that glowed was there, on the pedestal, and the old man smiling. Thoughts came into mind of failure, but he patted my beat body. His hand was glowing, and he healed me too barely a scratch. That man..was our last hope.

I told him what would happen, how they would invade the castle, what Satan was doing, how it all pieced together. But he just laughs, and shook his head. "Fellow demon, they cannot take the heavens if they do not have this" he said, pointing too that sphere he had shown me. I asked him if he had a plan, and he did...risky at that.

"I'll offer the sphere as a gamble, I lose, he takes the ultimate power, I win, and the invasion stops" He told the scout while I held him too the ground. The gamble was set, Satan showed up, I knew he would, 'what could one human do too me? That sphere will be mine! Come and face me human, let me show you a painful banishment too hell.' The little man stood there, smiling. He tossed his overcoat and cain aside, and drew the blade, MY blade, from the case. I kept the sphere, there would be no dirty tricks, no foul play, it was little human verses massive beast demon.

The man was a beast himself. His powers were unlike anything I had seen. He summoned rifts with slashes, fires blasts of energy with his hands, Beefed up his power by surging lightning through his body. The dark powers were no match for the mix, the energy surpassed even Satan. It was a matter of moments, an excellent display of swordsmanship and power, of skill, of grace. The little man, had the Devil fall onto his back, weak, burnt, frail. Finishing Satan off, his hand glowed with a massive energy, and suddenly, his hand impaled the demonic chest, pulling not the heart out, but the very soul Satan relayed on. He could not even mutter a word of defeat, crumbling too the dust as he dried up.

The invasion was driven, Many gazed too witness the man as he stood with that sword held high, a statue engraved with his name, he became "the Demon King" as the folks gossiped. Peace returned., and as an honor, that blade was placed on the pedestal of the old city. Unfortunately, that did nothing for my curse, i was the only demon unable too go back, The man told me though, that my curse was a gift, I was able too live among the people I saved, he told me that I would be trained in the effects of good and evil energy, and even made me a new blade. To this day, search for people called "The elders" too hone my skills. I interact with nature, and I discover the mystery he set for me centuries ago."
