Thoughts of a Daemon(Abraxius Storyline)

[Blazer]

Blazer sat in his island fortress muling over the events of the day...  many new things had happened and options that had long since been closed to him had suddenly come back. Abraxius had a permanent hold in sylvan now... his reign on the city of Zento was undisputed... and the war could not have gone better for Blazer.

The war... thoughts of how T'genni Vu had come to their aid even after swearing neutrality... and the real reason behind why she did. A smile graced his lips as he thought of Keely... that woman opened up emotions he long thought killed by the endless stain of blood on his soul. He was taken by surprise when he had summoned up the will to ask for her hand in marriage! But now his thoughts were most troubling... he could no longer in good concience attain the power which he sought... these emotions inside of him would not let him. Nor could he swear to have unerring loyaty to Abraxius anymore as his heart caused him to think of his beloved first and formost and the wishes of Abraxius second.

He needed to make a decision and quick, he knew he could not abandon his love, and knew the consequences of abandoning his Lord... not only would abraxius take his life and his freedom for such treachery... but more than likely he would kill his beloved first, in front of his eyes as punishment for his disloyalty.

  Blazer stood up and paced around his small island hideaway in frustration...  he also knew that he was making quite a name for himself amongst his guildmates and among the champions of light...  soon he would become a target for those whom wish to rid the world of such completely evil beings such as abraxius.. and if he kept up his service to abraxius he would also be considered a plauge among this land. He knew that it was just a matter of time before champions started to seek him out to destroy him... and those whom he held close... for they would be considered tainted by his evil.. even if it were not true.

  Blazer growled at the ignorance of those whom followed the light... did they not see that a daemon such as him could still be honorable? That even a being as vile as himself still could have traces of humanity inside of him? But then again... it was that very same humanity that put him in his current situation... that allowed his feelings to be ressurected and created one of the greatest weaknesses of all... for no matter how powerful he became now... all one would have to do is strike at his beloved to strike him down as well...  At least she also had her guildmembers to protect her, the order of calandria was a powerful guild in it's own right and she would be safe with them as friends. He cursed his own weakness, if only he were stronger, he could easily protect her at all times, but he was not.

Blazer gathered his spoils of war and then went to work putting them in the proper chests. Abraxius would soon be on the move again... his lord would not rest until the entire land was his to command... and he had made a vow to see his lord's dream to the final end... he knew many thought that this war was the end for the most part.. but blazer new that this was merely a new begining... the start of the next stage of war, for now that abraxius has his stronghold, he can start systematicly attacking the other cities until he has wiped out all life from this land. And the only hope for the land he had slaughtered with his own two hands and watched as their bodies added to the ever growing army that was the blight of this land. He only hoped that he could come out of all of this with his freedom intact and his love still alive... for he knew that the chances of that happening would be slim unless he could gain enough of the dead lord's favor to grant him those two boons...  he only hoped he had enough strength to accomplish that.
