A dark figure moved nearby, the forest was eerily quiet...
the full moon's light cast upon the shadowy sillhouette of a cloaked man...
it moved silently towards a large statue. demonic features were barely visible, etched in stone... it looked as if it were screaming.
the shadowy, cloaked figure spoke: "arise Arioch! excito sursum meus vinco , vos es calx haud magis!"
the demonic statue crumbled into peices... a huge creature stood in it's place,
the beast was reborn! the curse had been lifted... he was no longer a statue.
"my lord you have fallen... you were foolish to--
"SILENCE!" spoke Arioch, his voice was amplified by some sort of power within.
"YOU LED ME TO A TRAP!!! HOW DARE YOU LABLE ME FOOLISH! FOR THIS I BANISH YOU MORTUUS!!!"
Arioch's voice echoed around the forest, he raised a clawed hand and swiped at the air--
mortuus cried out in pain. a beam of moonlight shone on the two figures... mortuus was thrashing around in pain,clawing at his chest, he fell to his knees, his hood fell off and
his face was revealed.
pasty white skin...
his eyes were black slits, no light was visible in those slitted pools of darkness...
no nose was visible... and his mouth seemed to be a thin, crooked line!
Arioch made another clawing movement, this time mortuus disappeared--vanished.
"I HAVE NO NEED FOR A SERVANT WHO QUESTIONS MY POWER!" Arioch spoke to thin air
