In the Kotorr Alpes where the Night Elves live, something was moving in the dark. They were two and both females. Rock after rock they both jumped approaching the caves of the Night Elves.
Both these females had bat wings on their back that allowed them to fly. There are no more rocks around to hide so they fly silently near one of the caves. These two harpies were warriors and held spears on their hands. They have come here to hunt one or two Night Elves, especially young children.
"Hmhmh, lovely night elf flesh." she said, licking her lips.
In truth, the first Harpy that appeared in this world 200 years ago, did not look like these two. Today the harpies had their wings on their back and looked like some kind of demons like succubus, but the one that appeared 200 years ago had her arms as wings.
She did not decide to cause distraction upon the land so she went to the Kotorr Alpes and created a colony. The first harpy did not have a mate to breed, so she kidnapped beings of different species. She stored them in her cave and with her skill she turned them into something like pupa. It was like the cycle of a butterfly where the caterpillar turns into a pupa and later into a butterfly.
The pupa takes one month to hatch, so the first harpy went outside her cave to capture food or new victims that she will turn into servants. But her life will come to an end after encountering a dragon lord that curb stomped her.
A new species of harpies came to life without their mother to take care of them. For several years they lived as simply monsters wandering around, hunting night elves, wild elves, and zelves that were elves with horns. Later they formed the tribe of the harpies to become stronger because the night elves were angry at them and killed a lot of harpies as revenge.
But the harpies did not care and still attacked the others. They use the same method like their long lost mother did to increase their numbers because they did not have male harpies to breed. For 200 years, the harpies have been one of the most dangerous predators for the natives of the alps.
Both the harpies approached slowly near the entrance of the cave. They hoped to find a guard here alone so it would be a quick easy catch but there was no one in this place. But suddenly they saw a small form on the ground, and the two harpies smiled because they thought that it was a child wearing thick clothes made out of animal skin. One decided to step forward and the other one stood behind to watch her back.
"Lady Ylvia, will be pleased with this one, kukuku." a sadist smile appeared on her face, revealing her sharp fangs.
She thrust her spear on the body of the night elf child. Although she would be glad that the child did not let out screams of pain, it was still weird not hearing just a little bit of agony. The next weird thing was that the night elves did not let their children outside in the dark.
The harpy grabbed the prey that was supposed to be a child, she removed the hood and…
"Huh, the hell?"
The dead prey was not a night elf child but it was a mountain goat. This meant only one thing...
"It's a trap."
She turned at her sister to run away from this place but something was not right. Her sister had dropped her spear on the ground and was looking at her with frightening eyes. Liki saw that someone was behind her sister Fiki, and had grabbed her by the neck.
Liki did not have a problem with darkness because of her night vision, that person could be seen clearly as in daylight. He wore full plate armor that was open at the chest, proudly revealing his abdominal muscles. On his back he had bat wings that were bigger than those of the harpies. His face was that of a handsome young man, but his eyes hold a desire that knows no limit.
Evil Lord Greed approached his face near Fiki's scared face. The demon had a grin on his face revealing his white sharp teeth. He took out his tongue and licked the right side of her face. Fiki was shivering from fear and was looking at Liki to do something and save her from this demon.
"You smell nice and taste good sweetheart, hmhmhm. You will be my new toy."
"Le-Let go of my sister monster, or-or I will.. I will-
"Or you what?"
That voice was different, more monstrous, and was coming from behind her. Liki turned around to see who was, but what she saw was the most terrifying creature that she had ever seen in her life. The massive demon with flaming wings, grabbed her spear and broke it like a toothpick. The frightened Liki started to step back slowly, because the demon was coming closer.
"Pl-Please… mercy… please, I-I'll do whatever you wish me to do!"
Liki was scared for her life, she had never been in a situation like this before. This terrifying monster could end her lowly life in mere seconds.
"Is that so? Then tell me the location of your kingdom, little harpy." demanded the Evil Lord.
If she tells him the location of her homeland, she would put all the lives of her sisters in grave danger. Who knows what cruel plans does this monster have for the harpies? Liki took off her bra and showed her bosom at the demon. Why did she decide to do that? Does this monster have an appetite for lust? She had only seen an zelf couple touching each other, and she learned that it feels good, only she knew about it. The demon that was holding her sister was laughing at her pathetic choice.
"Hahaha, Wrath look at her, hahaha!."
Wrath was disgusted by the harpy and grabbed her by the neck. Liki was in tears, the sharp claws of the demon were entering on her skin bit by bit.
"I… I'm, I'm… sorry!" she hardly finished those words.
"Tell me the location of your kingdom slut, or I'll make you eat her guts!"
Evil Lord Greed, put his scythe near her belly. "Too bad, so sad. It seems you won't be my toy tonight." His evil voice sent chills down her spine and made Fiki piss from fear.
"I-I… will… se-send… you-you… there… Pl-Please… I-I… can't... br-breath..."
Evil Lord Wrath released her from the grasp of his hand. Liki fell on the ground coughing and breathing hardly.
"Get up and fly, I will follow." said Wrath.
"Ye-Yes."
The Empire of the harpies lies south, at this part, the climate was more nice and warm, perfect for the harpies to flourish. 100 hundred years ago, the harpies chose Ylvia to be the leader of the tribe.
As soon as Ylvia took the lead, she increased the population of the harpies to a point where they could be a threat for a nation or even destroy it. Some years ago, in the Kingdom of X'eryus that was ruled by the zelves, an entire village of peaceful halflings was razed to the ground, and all the bodies had disappeared with no trace, even the zelf soldiers that protected the village were not found.
All this was caused by the harpies and nobody in the Kingdom of X'eryus knew that. Some halflings had become food, some others had awakened as new harpies. Ylvia wanted the harpies to be strong and create an empire, that was her great dream.
With great preparations, the harpies started their first mighty invasion. With just one strike, the Kingdom of Rohka of the dark dwarves was invaded in two days and two nights. Every single dark dwarf was butchered without mercy, because the harpes did not keep prisoners. The dwarven cities became harpy cities and Ylvia fulfilled her dream and became the empress of the harpies.
Ylvia was a harpy with long black hair, yellow eyes, black bat wings, she covered her bosom with black bra, the hips with a short black robe, and had jewelry on her neck and wrists. She was outside her dwarven palace with two guards. Ylvia had sent two soldiers to hunt night elves, because she desired to eat elvish meat tonight.
There are no more elves around her empire, because the harpies had pushed them to leave their homes. Now the wild elves had gone in the grand south forest to live near with the Amazons, a tan skinned elvish species.
"What's taking them so long? I'm starving here."
"Your Majesty, shall I go and find them? Maybe the prey is fighting back." said a guard.
The harpies were not invincible, if they get hit by an arrow or with slingshots, it's over for them. The night elves will not show mercy either if they capture them wounded.
"That might be the reason. Go and bring me the food." she ordered
"Yes your Majesty."
This city was not very big and had big pillars that are high and connected with the ceiling of this massive cave. Some houses are used to create new harpies and others are to sleep and other living stuff. There are plenty of caves around that lead outside the mountain.
She was about to fly and reach them faster, but at the entrance arrived a harpy walking. The guard stopped and saw the harpy, it was the young Liki and she did not look normal.
Liki arrived near the empress with her head low. Something feels off about her.
"So, where is my food?" asked Ylia with her arms crossed.
"No food." she spoke with a small tone.
"Where is your sister?"
"She is on her way here."
Now this was strange, her face looked like something had scared her for death. There are giant Tarantulas not far away from her empire,they hide in caves and attack their prey quickly. No harpy was killed by one before, but if it happens to see one for the first time it leaves the harpies with nightmares.
"Did you lose your bra in a fight?" she asked again.
"No." said Liki.
"Then why are you like this then. You are leaving your empress starving for tonight."
"Your majesty, I'm sorry."
"Alright go back and try again." the empress said, waving her hand.
"Your majesty, I'm sorry."
Ylvia tightened her eyes, there is something odd here. The girl had failed in the past, but she had never acted like this. She saw one teardrop falling from her left eye. Suddenly the empress turned her gaze at the main entrance, someone was coming because the fire from a flaming torch or something else was making the tunnel lit. She thought that Fiki was entering the city but she was wrong.
"What the hell?!"
From the entrance arrived… a monster. It was a massive creature covered in scales. He had stout arms and sharp claws, as well as flaming wings and a snake-like tail. The guardian of the empress let out a sound like alarm that made all the harpies to come outside their buildings.
The strange monster was walking on the road that leads straight to the palace. Thousands of harpies had surrounded him with spears, but none of them went to attack the demon. He just walked normally and the harpies stepped back. The demon was approaching the stairs of the palace. Seeing the dangerous monster coming closer, Ylvia cried out…
"What are you waiting for?! Kill that thing!"
One hundred harpies attacked the demon with their spears, but there were no positive results. The spears were broken once they touched his body, because of his thick scales, the harpies could not penetrate his body. For the demon, the harpies attacking him were nothing but annoying mosquitoes.
"Begone thots."
" [ Shockwave. ] "
As the spell was called, the shockwave spread and pushed away all the one hundred harpies. Some clashed with other harpies, some others with buildings and some others rolled on the stairs.
Wrath was careful to not use much power so none of them were dead but unconscious. Empress Ylvia turned pale and terror overtook her face as the monster arrived in front of her. Liki moved aside and one her position came the demon. The Empress was shivering as the demon stared at her.
"Is this the Empress?" asked Wrath.
"Ye-Yes." reply Lili with her head low.
Ylvia watched Lili. She had betrayed them? She did not know the reason, maybe the monster might have used force that made her give him information about this city. The army of the harpies was doing nothing but staring at their empress.
"We-welcome…"
"That was a nice hospitality empress. But do not worry, they are not dead, we will need them later."
For what? What was the monster planning? Ylvia slowly steered at the other caves around the city. It was a sure thing that she did not have a chance against this monster, but at last she will sacrifice herself to give the harpies a couple of seconds to escape the ancient dwarven city.
"What do you want?" she asked.
"The night elves has told us some stories about your infamous empire. You really like to eat their children don't you?"
Was that a bad thing? Ylvia didn't understand him, she was a predator and she will hunt the prey no matter what, even if it is a child. Something in her head told her that the night elves now are under the rule of this monster.
"Wha-What about it?"
"Hoo, so you don't care what other forces you might anger?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Let me be clear with you, harpy, the night elves are citizens of my master now, and your little soldiers arrive there to hunt our citizens."
How should have she known that? She had never heard about the night elves being citizens of a nation. And so what? The flesh of the night elves was her favorite.
"So have you come here to declare war?"
"War? Hahaha-" the monster laughed as if he heard a joke. "Fighting against us means massacre empress. The night elves are under our rule, so they took that sweet honey. But for the harpies… you will get the whip." said the monster smiling.
Slaves… that was what she thought. Her people working as slaves building walls for this invader was unacceptable, death was a better choice than building castles for them. Ylvia became angry and attacked the terrible monster.
[ Fireball ] !
The 3rd tier spell was unleashed and hit the monster covering him in flames.
"Everyone, get out of her now! Save yourselves!"
Ylvia did not care anymore, she had fulfilled her dream of rising an empire, but she did not want to see herself holding bricks for eternity. The harpies heard the last word of the empress and obeyd. They were flying in the direction of the tunnels but…
"No! Noooo!"
From the tunnel came out countless flying demons that wore full plate armor. Evil Lords, War Devils, Abyssal Lords, Abyss Demons, Terror Lords, Purgatory Devils and Half Demon-Humans of the first generation. The half demons stood 2 weeks inside the womb of the human female, and they grew faster than normal humans. All of them had humanoid form, features and had curved horns, claws, wings, snake or dragon-like tails, and some of them had scales on part of their bodies like on the arms or legs
They were coming from all directions. Ylvia thought of them to be some kind of new species of harpies but she might be wrong. The female demons in that army looked far more dangerous than her army.
The demon army was not killing the harpies, but they were capturing them. As much as they tried to resist or fly away, it was impossible to escape from their arms, they were much stronger than the weak bodies of the harpies.
"AAAAAAAHHH!"
The empress went to attack Wrath. She hit him with her spear but it had the same result. Wrath grabbed the spear and threw it away, he hand-chopped Ylvia on the head. The empress of the harpies fell on her knees rubbing her head.
"We capture all of them, Wrath."
The one who spoke was the Terror Lord Belial. All his body was covered in full-plate armor, he had bat wings and a dragon tail.
"Oi, you crying?" asked Wrath with curiosity, approaching his hand at her head.
"Don't hit me anymore! It hurts aaaahhaa!"
Ylvial was crying out loud, and had raised her hand to cover herself. All the demons were watching her, and the harpies had begun to drop tears too. They were afraid of the fate that awaits them.
"Uhhh, hey…"
"I don't want to be a slave! I don't want to work in the fields like the zelves! I don't want to! I don't want to!"
"Nah girl, you don't work like that. You are all for breeding."
Ylvia stopped crying when she heard the last word.
"Br-Breeding? You-You mean we will turn your victims of war into harpies?"
"Huh? No, no, not like that. You all will hold our children inside your wombs."
The harpy empress turned her eyes at her belly and touched it. She still did not understand him. There was a time when her hunters brought a dead night elf female that had a big belly. They had torn her belly and had found another life form inside the corpse. The harpies had never seen something like that before and she was beginning to take interest in it. Who knows, maybe breeding in the way these demons do, it might be better and the half demon-harpies might become stronger than normal harpies.
"But, but, how does that work?"
"Oh, you do not need to worry about that, we will teach you. Leave everything to us… "
