In the world of wonders and the mad those who had heard of the supposed movie the siege of Carthax began to found out it was actually based around game footage. Those interested in such thing began to flock to Allyssa and soon Allyssa player ranks swelled by thousands until finally their had been enough in the world and joined causing the world to mature. This allowed for the world's very first expansion causing two new sub continents to form.
So the whole world of Allyssa watched in wonder as these two new lands formed. The first land that came was the new land under the domain of Hargal. Hargal would receive for the first time lands that were rightfully his that were in light instead of in the dark depths below as mountains began to form with giant caves in the shape of dragonfly mouths at their peaks. These caves would belong to the Dragolous lords and their ghoulish servants the dragfly ghouls.
These first true children of Hargal would rule the mountain peaks and rage war against Detrei and all that she had created and shaped with her very hands whether Hargal agreed or not though the Dragolous were not aware of Hargal's reluctance to the current unending war. To add even greater danger to the mountain deeper deepths that waited below the surface of Allyssa just beneath the new mountain continent were other sentients who served Hargal were waiting to be discovered by players.
Hargal watched all this from his secret lair deep below once of his most secured catacombs marveling at his creators will and work as the new mountain range filled with Hargal's children and creations seemed to plop into place without any problems as if they had always been there. Once again showing the skill and power of his creator in his ability over creation. For a long while Hargal simply watched his new children the ones truly capable of thought unlike his undead protectors from the early years of the war as they went about their business.
He saw his Dragolous lords as they led their dragfly ghouls in their new cave homes and other creatures of their newly founded courts. Though he grew disturbed as he noticed that they started to eye each other territory and depiste only being in the world a short time the Dragolous were already about to have a brutal civil war amongst themselves to establish who was in charge. Hargal decided that was not how the start of the Dragolous history would be instead he called upon the first champion of their kind from where he lay in endless sleep and brought him into his personal sanctum.
Flatek first of his kind and champion of his people came back to undeath with startling swiftness that actually left him disoriented for a moment. Hargal waited for Flatek to get his bearings before making his presence known which caused Flatek to turn to him. Flatek then gazed at Hargal in awe as he saw the form of tge creator of his kind and the master to all undead created on Allyssa.
" Great Hargal it is is my honor." Flatek said in his usual buzzing voice that came from a dozen different insects acting as one. " I await my punishment for my failure at defending Carthax as I rightful deserve great one." Flatek said to Hargal making it clear he held himself responsible for the fall of Carthax to Detrei's forces and willing awaited any punishment by Hargal for such an act of incompetence.
Hargal flared his presence once again stoping Flatek at his self criticizsim and begging for punishment to atone for his failure. " Do not worry Flatek I do not find fault in your defense of Carthax. No I have called you from the endless sleep and brought you here to help with another task." Hargal said with a gentle voice as he directed the stunned Flatek over to a dark orb. " I need your help in making the Dragolous lords see peace as in answer in order to do so I need you there among them to establish a hierarch among them." Hargal said in a serious voice.
" I will secure the throne as leader of the Dragolous lords and make peace the norm among them as you require my god." Flatek said with conviction to which Hargal merely nodded before opening a portal that would take Flatek deep into the mountains to establish his reign over his people right before Flatek was fully through and in the mountains he heard Hargal speak to him one last time. " Good luck my child." Then Flatek was in the mountains charging towards the nearest of his fellow Dragolous to bring them into line with the Hargal vision of them united.
Meanwhile the second new land to come to Allyssa beside the new Dragfly mountains were jungles under Detrei's preview. Though unlike Hargal and his Dragfly mountains Detrei had plans for the expansion which she acted upon putting her plan into motion at the moment it was time to do so. Detrei captured a small piece of the expansion and began to change it to fit her designs.
She did this within her secret church within the most fortified cathedral of all her followers. Her father glorious creation was magnificent Detrei saw that as she changed part of it before it was fully formed. Usually she would have never done such a thing and would have been the first to kill slowly the one who dared to change her father's work but in this case she needed to do this to get closer to her father once more.

So Detrei slowly morphed a single creature among those created for the jungle. As the jungles the creator had introduced were filled with creature that were reptilian in form but plant in material creating rather magnificent speciment and anyone who said otherwise could die slowly as far as Detrei was concerned. Detrei had picked what should have been the apax predator a giant lizard like thing made out of several different plants that would now be changed to what Detrei need.
She slowly began to mold the design of the mighty creature changing the creatures internal make up from one of being plant based to metal based. The creature than took on a red tinge with several razor sharp claws and teeth. She was adding the finishing touches as the pressure began to mount as the expansion was meant to finish at the same time the Dragfly mountains did. Her preventing of that caused a build up of power that was overpowering her as couldn't handle it.
As the power built the longer the expansion was being kept from being finishing by Detrei she found herself nearing death. But before she could meet her explosive end she felt the Creator's interference preventing her death and allowing her to continue. So instead of exploding Detrei instead finished her giant red metal T-Rex and then slotted it in allowing the expansion of the carnivorous fruit jungles to finish though now with a giant metal lizard that wasn't meant to be there.
Detrei went back to watching her father's work simply gazing upon the carnivorous fruit jungles and enjoying the splendor of her creators creation proving his greatness once again and his mercy for allowing her to live despite interfering with his vision. She payed special attention to the giant red metal lizard she had molded the creation she had risked much for. " Soon father soon." Detrei said to herself her eyes taking on a feverish light as she gazed on her creation and the promise it gave for her future.
Eventually once she had spent a rather long time gazing upon Alyssa new jungle she started to direct a few of her priest to start sending what would be considered her elite riders from different empires loyal to her to gather new war beast from the carnivorous fruit jungle. She knew that these new beast would help in the battles to come not mention it would help counter whatever new horrors Hargal forces got from his new mountains.
While Robert and Simon had been arguing the finer points of publicy and wether the old ways of handling publicity really had a place In the modern day. This conversation was brought to close as Robert felt the Allyssa expansions finally happen. " It finally happened!" Robert shouted out focusing his attention on the Dragfly mountains as that was the first part of the expansion.
Luckily Simon wasn't confused as he knew there was only one thing Robert could so excited about. " Well it looks your hard work finally pays off my dear Robert and might I say you to have an eye for detail." Simon said enjoying the look of Roberts mountains and the large dragonfly heads he'd carved into them as Robert quickly showed them on the workshop tv monitors.
The two were enjoying the Dragfly mountains taking in the detail and watching as Hargal's creations and hus people made their home in the giant dragonfly caves at the peak of each mountain. They had just spotted Flatek appearing causing Simon to get excited that his rivalry between Flatek and Faro was back in the table.
But before either could comment on Flatek returning Robert felt Detrei messing with the carnivorous fruit jungle and made to see what was going and immediately saw she was in danger of killing herself as she couldn't the handle the power she was messing with. So acting fast Robert intervened and stopped Detrei from going pop from the over flow of power but as he did that he couldn't see what she was doing.
Eventually though Simon informed him she was finished with whatever she was doing. " She's done now you can let go." Simon said causing Robert to let go of the energy behind the expansion and letting it finish materializing. Robert took a moment leaning back in his floating chair. " What did she even do?" Robert Asked Simon winded wondering what was so important that she risked exploding to do it.
" She turned your vegetable T-Rex into a giant red metal T-Rex." Simon said in a dead pan voice which was heard to pull off when you usually spoke like you were coming through a buggy mike but he pulled it off in that moment. Robert just stared at where the voice of Simon had come from for a moment before signing looking back at his workshop TVs and focusing back on Allyssa wondering what fresh madness would come next.
