In Hauzar continent the domains of demons and beast are ruled by two powerful rulers, one in the east and one in the west. They were know as Ruler of darkness and epitome of savagery and were feared by all the creatures. They ruled and conquered many land through sheer force and terror. Under their rule the demons and fiends prospered and roamed every corners of the continent.

At the edge of Crimson blood forest there stood a rocky mountain and on top of it there was a castle; anyone who is unfortunate enough to come across this castle would shiver upon its creepiness and would run away from it as far as possible. In a large room of the castle there was a throne on which sat a person who seem to be in his late teens with handsome features and otherworldly charm, his name was Aeron. Besides the throne stood an entity who looked like a devil, with big curved horns protruding out of his head and had large black wings like that of a crow.

“Master, the battle has come to an end and his highness has been captured; the enemy forces will reach this castle in an hour. We should make haste and retreat in the forest” The big devil said.

“Heractus, There are still 7 hours before the sun sets. I cannot hope to escape from them, not when the enemy is capable of capturing father” said Aeron in a displeased tone.

Suddenly an idea spark in his mind, Aeron rose to his feet and started walking. He went towards the upper chambers of the castle and stood before a big door.

“Master, you cannot possibly be thinking of using one of Reaz’s contraptions. They are dangerous and many of them are defective” – Heractus.

“I know but there is no other way, the old beard may be crazy but he builds some great contraptions. Father disdains them but they have their uses” – Aeron.

Aeron walked into the room hurriedly. It reeked of blood and oil and for any normal person this will look like a torture chamber filled with corpses and bizarre tools. After walking deeper into the lab Aeron found himself in front of a metallic door. As Aeron opened the metallic door a very small room the size 4 meters came into view, all four side of the room consists of metallic wall and it had no roof.

Aeron turned towards Heractus and said in a resigned manner “This is my only hope, you should erase your essence and I will summon you when it’s possible”

“Yes Master. I shall wait for your summon and hope I can be of your aide again as soon as possible” – Heractus.

“I will enter the cell now; you should pull the lever after few moments” Aeron said and entered the room. He firmly closed the metallic door and looked towards the sky. It was a bright day outside and the sun loomed over his head.

A big click sound rattled out and the whole laboratory started to shake, suddenly dark clouds started to form above the castle. The dark clouds started to spread from the castle and the darkness engulfed the mountain and the surrounding forest. Suddenly an enormous lightning bolt struck from the clouds pointed towards the cell. Within few seconds the clouds dispersed.

Heractus opened the hot metallic door which was red and peeked inside; there was nothing other than hot red metallic walls which were melting like magma. After closing the door it closed its eyes. After few moments it folded its arms to its shoulder and muttered a chant. A dark ball emerged before it which expanded rapidly. It sucked everything in its surrounding. Within seconds the dark ball engulfed the whole castle and then it started to collapse on itself, the dark ball condensed and then it disappeared without a trace and the castle along with it.

Few hours later, five shadows stood in the place where the castle stood. They were waiting

for something or rather someone. A Lean figure stepped out of the darkness and stood slowly came in front of the five figures. The five figures bent on their knees and placed their right hand on their shoulders display loyalty towards the lean figure.

“We salute the almighty ruler” They chimed in unison. One of them stepped forward and lowered his head and said “The castle is nowhere to be found my master; our guess is that one of them stayed behind and destroyed the castle after learning about the outcome of the battle. There is no sign of demonic essence, so whatever destroyed the castle must have perished along with it”

The lean figure gestured lifted his arm and a red gem materialized in thin air “We already have his essence and there is no other threat for us. I am going to my castle, take care of everything and don’t leave any loose ends” after saying so, the lean figure disappeared in thin air.

“You heard the master, clear the area. Leave nothing.” Said the first shadow and the five figures dispersed in different direction.
