Another hundred years have passed and Keireen walks through the halls of his castle walking towards the room the time mage is in but he senses Ratankira in a room nearby and knocks on it.
"Ratankira get up and ready. Today we kill Gheranto and Itimkrata" Keireen says
Ratankira opens the door already armoured up.
"I sensed as much the determined feeling you have was easy to sense" Ratankira says
"Right, jsut go get the army ready and begin taking them to the area we have set for the fight" Keireen says
"As you command" Ratankira says as he teleports away
Keireen turns to continue walking to the time mages quarters but sees the time mage walking towards him.
"i already know my king, I will rendezvous with Ratankira and prepare for the fight" The time mage says
"Good, i will join you all soon" Keireen says
The time mage bows and teleports away. Keireen teleprots to the place Onikerm has been conducting his experiments and puts up multiple barriers around himself and some smaller ones within his own body which he always finds difficult. Keireen then teleports his helmet on and conjures small parts around it to seal it across his head letting air through but stopping everything else.
"Alright shoudl stop me from beathing this shit in. I would be an idiot to not protect myself like this" Keireen says as he walks into the facility
Keireen walks past many rooms with people in different stages of decay as they scream in pain until he gets to Onikerm overseeing the facility and looking at the developing toxins. Keireen puts hsi hand on Onikerms shoulder.
"How is it going?" Keireen asks
"Its going wonderfully, its as infecious as deadly and painful, Reinholm will die quickly" Onikerm says
"Good, develop as much as you can and have it be easily transportable without it killing its carriers" Keireen says
"With pleasure King Keireen" Onikerm says
Keireen teleports outside the facility and uses magic to get rid of anything on himself and then takes down the barriers and unseals his helmet. He then teleports away to meet with Ratankira and the time mage, they teleport with the army to the border and fight their way through the border force moving towards the area they decided to fight in. Word of the attack quickly makes it back to Reinholm and the army starts to quickly get ready for a fight, Reinlas is in the castle and he looks at Gheranto and itimkrata.
"You two hurry there with me, ill stop the armies advance till our own forces get there" Reinlas says hurriedly
Gheranto and itimkrat nod unsheathing their blades as Reinlas unsheathes Kylorn they all teleport to where Keireen and his army are. Reinlas quickly turns his eyes black and he makes a giant wall of fire infront of the marching army and the shadows of the soldiers quickly begin to attack them. Gheranto and Itimkrata see Keireen and fly towards him ready to fight. Keireen watches them as they get close smirking knowing their abilities will be hindered, he already has his blade drawn. Itimkrata makes golems come out of the grown and charge towards Keireen while Gherantos eyes change to red and he starts to bring in the lightning.
"Just drain them for a while" Keireen thinks to himself as he side glances at where the time mage is
Keireens eyes change red as he begins dodging attacks and starts draining Gheranto and Itimkrata of their magic, the time mage stops hiding and uses her time magic on Gherantos soul stopping his first generation magic eliminating his red lightning forcing the clouds above to disappear. Itimkrata looks at Gheranto confused but sees he is just as confused. Keireen in their moment of confusion attacks the golems and destroys them quickly without magic, Keireen then quickly moves forward towards Itimkrata who is trying to make more golems while preparing for the coming attack. As he gets close keireen jumps over the rising golems and tackles Itimkrata and stabs through her with hsi sword impaling her to the ground causing extreme pain, Keireen quickly rolls forward uppercutting Gheranto knocking him down. Keireen quickly conjures chains that hold them both down as the abundance of magic hes getting boosts the draining taking the magic from them much faster. Gheranto and Itimkrata try to break free but when they try keireen breaks their arms and legs them pins them to the ground with daggers. Reinlas looks over at Gheranto, Itimkrata and Keireen and sees Keireen winning.
"Shit!" Reinlas shouts but he senses hsi army coming closer and jsut as he senses it they arrive and quickly charge into the fray
Reinlas stops his shadows and quickly flies towards Keireen ready to attack him. The time mage sees this and quickly looks at keireen.
"LOOK OUT!" The time mage shouts
Keireen senses Reinlas and immediately dodges his incoming attack and keeps draining itimkrata and Gherantos magic.
The time mage uses her magic on keireen, gheranto and itimkrata manipulating time so Keireen drains them even faster. Within minutes Keireens drained them completely and he makes hsi eyes emit pure light as he kills Gheranto and itimkrata and he grabs hsi sword pulling it out of Itimkratas lifeless corpse.
"You bastard!" Reinlas speeds towards Keireen with Kylorn in hand
Keireen moves faster than Reinlas as he cuts clean through Reinlas's right arm and leg taking them off with ease breaking the Geirniam guarding them. Reinlas lets out a yell of pain as his momentum sends him spiralling forward na dhe crashes into the ground bleeding porfusely. Kylorn flies out of the severed arms grip towards keireen But Keireen quickly grabs him and grabs one of his own Geirniam daggers and with his extreme magic channeling through him he smashes it through Kylorns blade breaking him into shards of Geirniam. Reinlas sees this and tries to get up hsi eyes growing a darker black as he begins using the shadows to attack Keireen who makes hsi entire body light stronger than ever the shadows do nothing and disappear due to the light.
"Reinlas, you still fight? Its admirable but you wont survive this. Before i kill you ill do one thing" Keireen says as he walks over to reinlas flipping him over and levitating him up
Reinlas tries to punch him with his left arm but he cant hit him causing Keireen to laugh as he takes the same Geirniam dagger he used to break Kylorn and drives it into Reinlas's right eye causing him to scream in pain once more.
"Seems you entire right side is pretty destroyed" Keireen says with a smirk as he grabs Reinlas and throws him to the ground hard enough to force him to bounce slightly increasing the pain
The armies stop their fighting watching the display before them. Kytal, Syremai and Dykrama see this and their souls burn in pain as they feel the need to help, Kytal runs over faster than any person could react but Keireen with his immsense magical power right now senses him and bats him away like nothing. Syremai flies up and hardens his scales to be liek armour and sharpens his wings divebombing Keireen while spinning basically making himself into an arrow from above. Keireen laughs and shoots a beam of light at Syremai knocking him out of the sky causing him to crash next to Kytal. Dykrama makes his way over slowly and Keireen conjures multiple ballistas with light bolts inside them, he makes them fire all of them peircing through Dykramas metal skin as he falls down next to Kytal and Syremai.

"That your best?" Keireen says with an amused expression as he loosk at Reinlas
"Time to end this, without you your kingdom wont be able to stand against me" Keireen says
"Never... underestimate... anyone.... resolve" Reinlas says as he tries to make fireballs to attack him
"Pathetic" Keireen says as he kicks reinlas while hes down sending him across the ground
Kytal gets up and feels the burning in hsi soul again as he screeches at Keireen as loud as he can, Keireens ears do start bleeding and he quickly fires the ballistas at Kytal this time causing Kytal to yelp in pain as oen of the bolts hits him and impales him to the ground. Dykrama gets up as best he can and gets infront of syremai and Kytal to stop them getting hurt more. Keireen walks over to Reinlas blade in hand and he holds it above Reinlas about to bring it down.
"Any last words about your pathetic life Reinlas? I only grant you this courtesy as you are the last of the first, make it memorable" Keireen says with a smirk
Reinlas uses his magic to speak easier.
"You've taken my brother from me you bastard, youve killed numerous people even if i die here people will fight on. If there is anything after this at least i will be resting with people who deserve peace unlike you" Reinlas says
"Cliche much?" Keireen says with a small laugh
"Farenhale, ill see you soon" Reinlas says as his left eye closes waiting for death to hit him
Syremai looks at this and he feels burning in his soul and stabs a wing through himself as the other two feel their souls burn more their bodies and souls begin to merge together. Keireen doesnt notice this and he briugns hsi blade down onto reinlas but its frozen in time. Keireen looks around and then towards the time mage.
"ARE YOU DOING THIS!?" Keireen asks angrily
"im not!" The time mage shouts
"WHO THE FUCK IS DOING IT THEN!?" Keireen shouts
"I am" A familiar voice says behind Keireen
Keireen turns around as much as he can given his hand his frozen in time as well, when he turns he is met by the face of Farenhale. The person who looks like Farenhale unfreezes Keireens hand and bats him away quickly and freezes Reinlas's injuries in time so he wont die as Reinlas fades into unconciousness.
"WHAT THE HELL!?" Keireen shouts angrily
"I know not what is happening but i will stop you Keireen" Farenhale says
"What fucking bastard is making this illusion!? No an illusion is usually unable to touch a person. HOW THE HELL ARE YOU ALIVE?!" Keireen shouts angered
"I have no idea" Farenhale says as he freezes time completely and throws hsi sword back towards the enemy armies
The sword keeps going as Farenhale allows the sword to mvoe normally through time, it slices open every enemy soldiers throat as he levitates it to keep going. The time mage is able to move in frozen time and shes amazed.
"I knew he'd come back but this display of power I did not foresee" The time mage says
Farenhale looks over at the time mage and speeds over knocking her out and he speeds over next to Keireen and punches him as hard as he can then he goes back to where he was standing and unfreezes time. Keireen shoots into the ground from the punch and hsi entire army save for the few Farenhale did not see fall down dying. Keireen enraged fires as many beams of light towards Farenhale as he can, farenhale manipulates time to dodge them with ease but he uses too much and stops getting blasted one one beam toom ahrd that suddenly he disappears and all that remains is Kytal, Syremai and Dykrama.
"What. The. FUCK!?" Keireen shouts even more pissed as he walks towards them
Suddenly Farenhale appears again behind Keireen and punches him down to Keireens surprise.
"FUCK! HOW!?" Keireen shouts
"It seems whatever these creatures are have given me a way to keep coming back" Farenhale says as he goes to stab Keireen but keireen teleports back a little bit
Keireen conjures as many arrows as he can, makes as many firebalsl as he can and begins firing them towards farenhale who dodges and fires back but eventually gets hit and unmerges. keireen looks around and gets punched from behind as some other war beasts were merged for him to come back. Farenhale goes to stab Keireen
"RETREAT!" Keireen shouts causing Farenhale to stop
"You bastard" Farenhale says
"FUCK YOU, YOU UNDEAD ABOMINATION!" Keireen shouts as he teleports away with the soldiers that still live and are concious with minimal injury
Reinlas wakes up and looks around though with hsi injuries he cant move too much but he sees Farenhale.
"Farenhale?..." Reinlas asks before fading into unconciousness again
Farenhale walks over and unfreezes Reinlas's injuries and helps him up using healing magic on the injuries for now. Farenhale then looks over at Syremai, Kytal and Dykrama and uses levitation to take out the ballista bolts and syremais wing then starts healing them.
"I NEED HEALERS OVER HERE!" Farenhale shouts
Healers quickly run over and help the three as well as Reinlas as Farenhale puts Reinlas somewhere more comfortable while they heal him. Farenhale sits down nearby and and scans his own soul.
"What the hell happened to me?" Farenhale asks himself confused
Minutes pass by and Reinlas as well as the most critically injuried are healed enough to be teleproted more safely. Farenhale teleports with everyone back to Reinholm and teleports with Reinlas, Kytal, Syremai and Dykrama back to Reinholm castle no one knows what to say about Farenhale and focussing so much it hasnt sunk in but Linra runs in as does Farenisle and Liara after sensing Reinlas is hurt, they see Farenhale first and are very confused but quickly go to Reinlas and see if they can help. Linra looks at Farenisle and Liara.
"Take your father and help him up to our room and rest, I need to speak to... Farenhale" Linra says
Farenisle and Liara nod and teleport up the stairs with Reinlas and put him in his and Linras room. Linra then looks at Farenhale
"How?" Linra asks
"Those odd creatures it seems let me come back but i dont think its a permanent thing I can feel the soul i have is very unstable" Farenhale says
"The 'odd creatures' as you put it were made using your soul" Linra says
"That would likely explain it, how long has it been? I havent checked yet with magic. Im almost afraid too" Farenhale says
"Its been more than a billion years since you were killed" Linra says
"Others of the first help me" Farenhale says
"Do you remember anything?" Linra asks
"I only remember my life before death but the last thing i remember is well taking my last breath then suddenly breathing more and wakign up in that fight" Farenhale says
"I need to go check on Reinlas, I have no doubt Liara and Farenisle will have questions" Linra says
"Wait Liara and Farenisle? You actually went with those na-" Farenhale cuts himself off as he holds his head in pain and hsi soul burns
"Farenhale something wrong?" Linra asks
"I said this likely wasnt a permanent thing and that my soul was unstable seems its reachign its breakign point" Farenhale says and seconds after the souls unmerge causing Farenhale to disappear as the war beasts that made him appear where he stood
"That is very weird" Linra says as she teleports up to her and Reinlas's room to see if hes alright
Lirna walks over and sits down lookign him over. His leg and arm have been completely severed and what remained of his eye was taken out leaving an empty socket. Linra puts her hand on his cheeck.
"Oh Reinlas what has that bastard done to you? He'll pay for it in time I know it" Linra says as she uses healing magic on him to keep him resting well though Linra cant help but wonder what will happen next
Over in Keireens kingdom...
Keireen stands in in his castle pissed off with Ratankira and Onikerm behind him.
"HOW THE FUCK DID THIS HAPPEN!?" Kerieen shouts angrily
"No clue, never thought he could come back through the beasts, unfortunate yes but highly interesting" Onikerm says
"Onikerm shut the fuck up, we need to devise some strategy to ensure this doesnt impede anything" Ratankira says
Keireen turns to them.
"Onikerm give your toxin to the agents" Keireen says
"Ive not made a way for it to be delivered safely yet" Onikerm says
"I DONT CARE! Give it to them" Keireen says
"Alright" Onikerm says as he teleprots some fo the toxins to his hands
"Keireen this is a hasty move, it can cause much damage hell may even kill Reinlas and his family but whos to say it will work out? If Farenhale is back what are the chances he can find an antidote?" Ratankira asks
"Probably very likely, that fucker is smart" Onikerm says
Keireen sighs in annoyance.
"FINE! Onikerm dont give it to the agents yet first find a way to deliver it safely so they can set it to be used in the city when Farenhale isnt there!" Keireen shouts
"Fine" Onikerm says teleporting away
"Thankfully you listened" Ratankira says
"Ratankira shut up before I chop your head off just because i feel like it!" keireen shouts
"Okay i can tell when im not wanted" Ratankira says leaving the room
Keireen yells in frustration and breaks the wall next to him then throws hsi throne through the open hole where the wall once was as he hopes that the safe was to deploy the toxin is created.
