Aah.

...And now that I've read it, it seems pretty good, I guess.

But I doubt he'll get far.


(And the last survivor thing is major cliche)

Yeah, I kind of addressed most of that in my following posts but I guess I could give a little more so here you go..

THE PROTAGANIST

LEGACY
A group of religious revolutionaries. They are enemies of the Divine Kings and the Gods. They are few in number compared to their counterparts so they use guerilla warfare tactics. They know the secrets of the "gods" so they constantly hunted.

PIRATES
The people that the ARK consider criminals have no choice but to flee from home and find another way of life. They are also much less numerous than their enemy ARK,so they also resort to guerilla warfare. They are continuosly hunted by ARK and bounty hunters so they have numerous hideouts.

4 INDEPENDENT ROYAL KINGDOMS
The worlds other 4 royal kingdoms not allied with ARK. They collectivelly hate ARK and will tolertate each other just to go against them. They are hated by ARK because they harbour those considered pirates and criminals by ARK. They each have bloodline powers just like the 4 families of ARK as well as "savants'.



THE NEUTRAL


BLACK GHOST
The Black Market. They specialise in the sell of stolen weapons and secrets. They somehow have gotten hold of some "omega seeds" and are saleing to the highest bidder.

BOUNTY HUNTERS
Search for those with the highest bounty and take them in. Most have no ill will against their captives, they are just in it for the money and fame.



If you liked my Interlude:Vegenance, then here is my Prologue. The conversation may seem random but all the conversations are important to the rest of the story. The actions in parenthesis are just for me to know what to draw.

PROLOGUE: BRIGHTEST NIGHT, DARKEST NIGHT

On the ruins of the Island of Cascade:

{Blackness}

You are pathetic

You are weak

You are an insect

{A huge explosion sends a man flying over the cliff’s edge}


On the Island of Ronan:

{A handsome man emerges from the forest carrying a bouquet of flowers behind his back.}
{He approaches a women reclining on a blanket in the moonlight.}

“You trying to sneak up on me?”

{The beautiful women turned and glared at the approaching man.}
{The man was caught off guard, but pretends not to be, and replied with a shaky voice}

“No, of course not, why would I use such a devious tactic on you, my love.?”

{As he spoke he reclined next to the woman handing her the bouquet of flowers}
{She took the flowers and looked the man in the eyes}

“You’re not as sneaky as you think you are.”

{She took her eyes off him for a second as she looked a her lovely flowers}

“I guess you taught me to well to be snuck upon. I notice everything now.”

{ A mischievous smile came across his face}

“Is that so? Well what’s this then?”

{The women looked at what the man was indicting in his hand}

“My locket!”

{She looked in her pocket were the locket had previously be placed, it was gone}

“You sneaky thieving bastard.!”

{She was enraged that the man had tricked her and actually tricked her}
{The man now had a smug smile on his face}

“I guess you’re not as attentive as you thought you were.”

{She glared at the man with a look of shock but she come not stay mad at him}
{She dove at him without any warning, catching him off guard}

“Why you!?”

{She landed on him, they rolled around on the ground, each trying to get the upper hand and pin the other to the ground}
{All of a sudden a giant flash fill the air}

“What is that!?”

{They both sat and stared at the phenomenon that had never been seen before}
{A giant orange-red ball of flames descending through the sky}

“It looks like the sun is falling from the heavens!”


On the Island of Solaris:

{A man in a lab coat steps away from a figure lying on a table in his libratory}
{The man on the table opened his eyes}

“I can see.”

{He blinked his new eyes several times as this was the first light to enter his eyes in some time.}

“The moon.”

{He glared up through the sun roof of the underground lab}

“I can see the moon.”

{A slight smile crossed his face}

“It is full tonight.”

{The smile left his face as he realized the situation }

“Is it the beginning of the month.”

{The scientist whom had stood speechless the entire time finally gathered himself and advanced toward his
crowning achievement}

“Yes, it is.”

{A look of concern came upon him}


“What month? How long have I been down here?”

{The scientist still ecstatic didn’t pick up on the mans concern}

“Three months, it only took me three months to create such a brilliant masterpiece.”

{The glared at the scientist with a look of anger and outrage, the scientist coward in fear in the corner at the sight of his face}

“Three whole months. You son of a bitch, you…”

{The man stopped mid sentence as he suddenly remembered what had happened to put him to put him in this position and
what the scientist had done to help him}

“Thank you.”

{A huge smile crossed his face}
{The scientist relaxed and smiled back at the man}
{Before the scientist could reply to the man a huge burst of light appeared blocking the light of the moon}

“What is this?”

{The two men gawked at the sky through the sun roof}

“My eyes, something is wrong with my eyes. I am seeing a solar eclipse at night”

{The man on the table rubbed his new eyes and chuckled at the mere thought of such a thing at night}
{The scientist continued to star at the sky in awe}

“No I see it too.”

{The man glared at the scientist, half expecting to see him trying to stifle a laugh at his expense, but he wasn’t}

“What!?”

{He stared back up at the spectacle}

“How is that possible.”

{The man asked thinking that only genius scientist would have an answer to such a question}

“It’s not.”

Actually the chapter was to long for one posts so I split it in two posts.

Continued from last post.

On the Island of Vegas:

“Hey, you guys awake in there.”

{A figure stirred in the darkness of the cell}

“Yeah, we’re awake, but keep it down. You don’t want to arouse the guards.”

{The man looked around behind to double check there was no security}

“Yeah, I know that.”

{He handed the prisoner the sack he was carrying through the cell’s window bars}
“Thank you, friend.”

{The prisoner took the sack and looked inside}

“Don’t mention it, Augustus.”

{The man took a deep breathe and asked}

“So how’d it go today.”

{The prisoner looked at the man, then lowered his head to his chest}

“We lost Brutus today.”

{Everyone present was overcome with sadness but keep their tears to themselves}
{The man took back the now empty sack from the prisoners}

“I will inform his family of his unfortunate demise. We will have a nice ceremony in his memory.”

{The prisoner nodded in agreement}

“So what of the outside world.”

{The man took another deep breathe}

“Food becomes more and more scarce everyday.”

{The prisoner stared at the man through the prison bars}

“Why, do you bring it to us then. Condemned men, already close to death.”

{The man smiled and shrugged his shoulders}

“You are my friends and I will get by.”

{The prisoners all smiled back at the man outside their cell}

“You are truly a great friend and a even greater human being. If I could….”

{Suddenly a bright light filled the sky behind the man}
{The prisoners stood in awe, the man turned around as the sudden burst of light frightened him}

“What…”

{The prisoner’s faces were looks of confusion and fear}

“Is that the sun!?”

{The man outside the cell looked at his watch to double check the time}

“It can’t be…”

{He looked at the prisoners, as confused as they were}

“It’s barely past midnight!”

{Augustus starred at his fellow prisoners and then the man outside}

“Has hunger caused us all to go mad!?”


On the Island of Troy:

{Two men stand in fight poses in the dark along on the edge of a high cliff}

“I suggest you take your ass back home, Baraka. You know how many of your fellow warriors I have slaughtered?”

{The man in black smirked as he thought to himself}

“If you could call what they were warriors that is.”

{Baraka became enraged at the belittling of his brothers fallen at the hands of this man}

”You dare to take those warriors sacrifices in vain, making fun of those that strived to free this country of your tyranny.”

{The man in black found Baraka’s statement this to be hilarious}

Ha-ha-ha. Me, a tyrant!? A thought you were supposed to be a warrior not a comedian. If you want to see a tyrant then look no further then your own king.

{Baraka became further enraged at the jousting of this man in black}

“How dare you, he has done everything for this nation. He has made us rich and the strongest nation independent nation in the world.

{ The man in black once again smirked at Baraka’s views}

Says the man from the royal family that never had to work for a thing in his life.

{Baraka’s eyes widen in shock that this man continued to make fun of his views}

You think all the little people feel the same appreciation to the king as you?

{ With that Baraka raised his giant mace to his shoulder}

“You son of a bitch, I did come out here to discuss politics with you.”

{He began to charge at his enemy}

“I came to take your head, Dark Slayer.”

{He continued to charge}
{The Dark Slayer just stood there unfazed by his sudden charge at him}

“I gave you a chance to live.”

{He turned his head slightly and glared at Baraka charging at him}

“You should have taken it.”

{Darkness}
{ The battle is over, the Dark Slayer stands victorious over the fallen Baraka, a giant ball of fire blocks out the moon}

“Well, well look at that.”

{No answer}

“Hey, are you listening Baraka?”

{No answer}
{The man in black looked down at Baraka}

Oh. Well, you can’t see any way since I beat your face in. Your eyes must be swollen shut.

{He sighed and looked back at the scene}

Well, I guess I will have to describe the scene to you then.

{ He thought for a second}
“You should be forewarned that I don’t have a very big vocabulary like you do, as I haven’t been to school in so many years.

{He smirked}

“Hell I didn’t even finish middle school.”

{He shook his head}

“Listen to me going on and on.”

{He looked back down at the fallen warrior}

“I’m sorry Baraka but I don’t usually talk this much but I am so lonely out here all by myself. The only company I ever get is you so called warriors coming out here to try and kill me.”

{He put a very stern look on his face as he stared back at the fire in the sky}

“I am a very serious man. I am embarrassed to have had this thoroughly one sided conversation.”

{After a minute of being lost in thought he snapped out of his daydream}

“Oh, yeah I forgot to tell you. The sun is out in the middle of the night.”

{He thought about the idea of chances such a thing would happen for a second}

“Don’t you think it odd that the sun would show his face so late at night.”

{He stared at the descending sun uncovering the full moon behind it}

“It’s like it forgot what its place is in the scheme of things, huh.”

{He continue starring at the ball of flames, waiting for an answer from Baraka to his question}

“Baraka!”

{No answer}

“Baraka!”

{No answer}
{He looked down at the fallen warrior}

“Oh, damn he’s already dead.

{He turned his back as the flames began to disperse and disappear}

What a shame.”

{He dropped that body to the moonlight shore below}




Back to the ruins of the Island of Cascade:


{A man falling from a cliff into the darkness of the night air}

Damn You

{Falls further into darkness}

Curse You


How could you do this…


To destroy them all like this…



They trusted you


They worshiped you


They loved you

{Continues falling}

Now they are all gone

{See him from above as he gets close to the surface of the water}

Is this it for me as well?

{Closer to the surface of the sea}

Is this how my life ends?

{Just above the surface of the sea, he reflects on his friend’s lives and their deaths, his eyes snap open}

NO!!

{He hits the water hard; a huge splash erupts from the sea}

I refuse to die like this.

{He sinks into the dark abyss of the sea; bubbles float to the surface}
