Pestilence: Rise Of The Pure Undead

Loimos made his way into the miniature dungeon, the ceiling above trembling from terrible impacts, rubble and dust falling down, the area shifting in length and size, it seemed like whatever was distorting the inside of the manor was slowly breaking down.

His next action was certain to shatter it completely, bringing both hands up against the wall, focusing his death force into his palms, injecting his chaotic death into the wall, soon reaching the unknown undead slumbering encased deep into the earth, barely even a lick of death force reached it, but it was enough, it moved.

Easily breaking out of its natural prison, splitting the earth like a natural calamity, the manor was completely uprooted from its foundation, and so was most of the city, the sheer size of the corpse was much beyond what Loimos had been able to sense, the mere act of digging itself out brought enormous destruction and death all over the surface.

Loimos was spared from the destruction, as an enormous skeletal hand grabbed hold of him, safely pulling him to the surface, the fighting ceased on all sides as the massive creature appeared, the soil was collapsing down, the geological disturbance splitting a small mountain in the distance.

"Weeeell, number one amidst the king's loyal servants, it is I, The Graveyard, where heeroes, armies and loooords join in my community, a communal burial for all" surprisingly enough, the mass of pristine white bones had a rather pleasant voice, almost soft and even a slight accent of unknown origins.

"You have guessed right, I am the so-called bone calamity, the shaaaallow grave the enemies of the skeleton king are granted at last, at laaaaast!"

The Graveyard, whomst Faraday and Irmandos had somehow forgotten to mention the existence of, was nothing clear, a sheer mass of bones and nothing else, intertwined remains of countless beings, humans, beasts, monsters, giants and everything that had lived during the reign of the undead king, its head, or at least what it looked like its main head amidst the piles of them, was malformed, misshapen, as though it had been broken, melted and rebuilt countless times by an amateur.

A white slash struck one of the thousands of arms the abomination was in possession of, leaving a mark that quickly repaired itself.

The Graveyard waved about three hundred hands the size of Alberg, chuckling.

Without saying anything, or paying attention to the originator of the attack, the gigantic undead pushed up the ground, erasing all life that remained inside of the city once it hit the ground.

"All of you, joining The Graveyard as collaborators is definitely the worst fate a living could get, unfortunately, it is not a choice" speaking to absolutely no one in particular, the undead creature emitted a low 'hum' absorbing the departing souls of those that had been slain, once in possession of all of them, now having the authority over their very beings, the flesh of the corpses was stripped off swiftly, their bones sucked into the endless mass.

"Now, we are all brothers and siiiisters" it exclaimed, glancing down at the remaining Derelictus-Mens and the sole remaining human, Ohrn could not believed his own sight, the sheer grandeur of the undead before him was enough to suffocate him, and it had done nothing but do some basic movements and claim its prize, the extent of its power had to reach further than this.

"You, you are family, a true friend! What is thy name? I am naught but the bone calamity, The Graveyard, the creature his majesty wished to see grow into a divine beast, alas, the foul Death Hunter crushed me, I am but a mere splinter of what I once was!" he brought Loimos closer to its deformed head.

Loimos, currently shrouding himself in Miasma and using the massive amount of death his new ally had just caused to mend himself, replied immediately.

The skeleton also made sure to swiftly update Graveyard on the current situation of the dead, it would appear that the king's beast had been defeated well before the main events of the past war, and having been attacked by Thanatok Ynigós, The First Death Hunter before his untimely vanishment, well before many events.

An undead defeated by this ancient hero should have had no way to not be completely erased, leading everyone to believe that The Graveyard was no more, having been many times larger than even now, the mesh of skeletons had managed to avoid total defeat and had gone into a stasis.

"Shame, pity, but this age is a new one, let us finish off those livings-"

"Mmmmh, Loimos, what is that distinct sense of approaching danger I am feeling?" it spoke nonchalantly, pointing dozens of fingers at the something Loimos was unable to see until it finally stopped.

"My Lady? You are early!" Ohrn was taken aback, but relieved still, he had predicted two weeks for her to come back, and it hadn't even been one.

"You truly are the strongest, and the most beautiful my lady!"

"Silence, explain why a shitty piece of art is stomping on my city" she demanded, calmly.

The elite cleared his throat, looking up at said art piece.

"I do not know my lady, the ape queens suddenly launched an attack, and out of nowhere, this thing bursted out of the ground, murdered everything in the vicinity, and as since been spouting incomprehensible words at someone in its hand, one of its hands" the elder could not come up with anything better than this, he hadn't been looking for a little while, and everything immediately turned for the worse.

"Where are the-" he suddenly realised that there were still plenty of monsters everywhere, but he was only greeted by corpses.

"That's already dealt with, can you seriously not handle a few monster queens? Have you been slacking? All of you are fucking disappointments" she shook her head, beginning to stroll toward the humongous beast, however, the bone calamity just put someone down and began running in the opposite direction.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Loimos was not going to lose such a great ally by throwing The Graveyard at the little menace that was the adorable little girl standing before him.

The king's beast value already exceeded his own just by existing, it just needed to gather bones to grow stronger at a fast pace, the graven mass was quick, already disappearing into the horizon once it began using its strength to push off the ground and jump, it would hide off somewhere and quietly gather some strength.

But despite this, Lady Syklon still needed to be distracted for a few moments, it made no doubt that she could catch up if she really wanted to.

"My lady, there is no need to bother with him, he is clearly buying some time-" Continue your journey on empire

"Ohrn, keep it shut will you? Can't you see it? This fellow here, he has good potential"

It was a bit annoying that her work had literally been squashed, but it barely mattered anymore, she had already slayed the rulers of this nation and had never really cared deeply about anything here.

Her gaze sharpened.
