The day had started out with Azula arriving to show Malfoid some historical truth re the almost annihilation of her race by those who chose to use ancient magics against them.
A short distance to the place and on landing at the site it was clear that it had long since been abandoned. Forest area, well a clearing of sorts.
Steps that led up to the main ‘Temple’ deemed a site of worship that was in itself indeed an ancient building.
The forest had covered up most of it and the caretakers the ‘foresters’ visited only occasionally to cut back the growth.
Thus it was traversable. Malfoid had not ever seen such dense undergrowth and was taking care of where she was stepping.
Snakes.. there were snakes but they did not bother her. Azula seemed to be anxious but having Malfoid there dispatching those snakes and there were some rather large ones.. set her at ease.
THEY she mutters are the reason those of my kind do not visit here. BUT we know of its significance.
Why in the past to them, it was a holy site. Those who reveled in killing, in murder, in death.
Soon they, were at the entrance to see its dimly lit interior. Shadows semi darkness and COLD.
Carefully if not cautiously stepping in.
Even Azuka, did NOT know what to expect, other than what she had seen in their archives.
The first sight that met them was a hideous mural if not statuette of a face. Created by them to instil fear of those they had butchered looked like.
To visually generate; disgust, hatred towards those who they were made to believe looked like this, were as they were here depicted?
The Kets *children were not allowed to view, such being the stuff of nightmares..
What they had created was the horror they uncovered in the caves.
The numbers of the creatures, dead from the irradiation, deeply penetrating to mutate them.
Send the ones alive, the ones hiding in fear.. trying to protect their own their kith and kin, their Kets.. not attacking them.
Sealed in, no way out. The desperation the terror the FEAR of knowing they were DOOMED.
Irradiated, they went insane, to the point they turned on each other killing the numbers were never counted, never recorded.OURs born mutated, deformed when they irradiated the caves where our offspring were; those born of Eugenesis.
Look here on the main wall, the images we carved to show what happened, a record of the suffering, the madness, the dying. Notice some of the changes to show us as evil creatures.
UGLY malicious, primitive killers. In amongst our TRUTH of what happened they paint, colour their images over ours.. with their lies their deceptions
To have their own believe what THEY paint as what happened when the real TRUTH lies hidden beneath their lies. Almost washed out but we secretly restored the images we acquired from the originals before they were painted over.
Dagora.. the ones who sought to hide the truth, altered it. Their beasts fly the heavens at their command as a way of showing off their power their dominance over all who are NOT from Dagora even the one they call Ems who is in charge of their militia is in awe of them.
Their Imperical Highness, the one who used DARK magics to trap and seal our race into the caves. My race had no means of defence against that darkness. The caves they were thrown into. SEALED ALIVE in those caves, as others no and my race know.. as COI ITOI.. (Tombs)
OUR hatred when we discovered, uncovered the truth? We reovered what remained of our own from those caves.. THEY do not know that we took what was left of them. Many of my kind wept on knowing the TRUTH
BUT we remember, we do NOT FORGET.
They believe the burial sites where they threw the contaminate waste, those mounds you see. next to the forest that hides this place.
Dark magics. WHY you are here. YOUR ancient POWER is far stronger than any of theirs. We are going to send in our our ambassadors to ask for our former lands back. YOU will also be part of those we send in,
THEY will NOT dare to use their magics or will they? HOW will you respond if they do? The lurkers nearby scuttled past them as Malfoid raised her wand,. THAT place have you or your people any more use for it?
“NO.” “Good. then it needs to be destroyed, the testament to their evil the painted lies.” Pointing her wand at the building as they carefully left . Stood some distance away. She utttered the words ‘indestru finite accoru’
The heavens went dark.. from it came streaks of lightning that struck the building the granite stone structure as it blew apart. Caving in,, columns stone pillars, statues to their Gods.. A pile of rubble is an understatement.
The caretakers had been nearby.. now they were stood in front of the rubble cursing screaming at them and the one they went to attack. Azuka shifted for Malfoid to raise her wand point it at them lifting them mid air.. throwing them mercilessly back.
“Come it is time we left this place. “ A while later they were in a building an old castle structure similar to the one she had seen emerging from the water. NOW she was receiving refreshments, vital vittals and feeling a little less tense.
“YOU should rest, tomorrow our ambassadors and you will present themselves to their high council.A council of elders who make the final decisions NOT military though their militia, will be there
The first ones will be OUR Ambassadors.. ‘Apossi’ followed by the ’Inqu’ . are there to offer up gifts a token gesture to symolise our desire for peace. Amiable, agreeable to ensure they have NO reason to reject our friendship. Let the past remain in the past.
