In an enormous forest on the edge of the Argonaut kingdom and the Rose Kingdom there was a great disturbance that had caused many of the wild beasts to go on a rampage and within the middle of all this chaos was a group of 5 beasts, far stronger than any of the other beasts. Each of these beasts had underlings that resembled them. It appeared as though they were having some kind of meeting.
As one of the rampaging beasts charged towards this meeting place it suddenly came to a halt, and within a second its head was severed from its body. Only a few feet away stood a black winged creature that resembled that of a human, the only difference being that instead of skin and a human head it had feathers and the face of an eagle.
Blood dripping from its razor-sharp wings the figure began to speak, in an angered tone."Pathetic lesser beings, can't even stay calm against a pathetic necromancer."
Ignoring this comment another beast that resembled a giant black lion with crystals adorning its body roared in rage as it said."You're dead! You dare kill one of my subordinates!"
Charging forward the lion went straight for the creature with wings, the lion towering over the other creature. However, just as the lion approached the winged creature he was quickly stopped by a large gorilla that had a giant horn atop its head and flames engulfing its body.
This gorilla grabbed the lion, threw it back and saying."Stop fighting, we can do that later. We need to deal with that disgusting thing."
The other two creatures seemed to agree and it seemed that the gorilla had also caused the lion to calm down.
As the creatures started conversing it soon became very clear that he was in fact the leader of this group of creatures and was beginning to instruct them on what they were going to do.
"First we need to get more information on this being. I haven't encountered a necromancer for over 200 years and it appears this one is much stronger than any I have encountered before."
With a hint of pride in his voice, the bird-like creature quickly responded, saying."Let me deal with this. It's only a human, how hard can it be."
All of the other creatures did not respond and the bird-like creature seemed to take this as an agreement that he could take on this task and quickly flew away from the other four beasts, its minions following not far behind.
As it left the lion let out a loud laugh as it said. "Foolish bird. So how much do you want to bet he'll be dead by the end of all of this."
Ignoring the lion's words, the 3 remaining monsters walked off. All the monsters were far too distracted by their plotting to focus on what the Lion had said.
As he was leaving the lion continued laughing with his subordinates, not paying attention to the fact that other than his subordinates everyone else had already left.
A short distance from the cackling lion two Gorilla-like creatures were communicating. The much smaller Gorilla said. "Sir now that we have gotten rid of that ridiculous bird you can finally conquer all of the first."
With a giant grin on his face, the leading gorilla responded. "Finally I can be the only power in this forest. I've been waiting 300 long years to get rid of one of them and finally, an opportunity has come."
The gorilla then approached the edge of the tree where he was at the top of and before him was an army of gorillas, each resembling him and varying slightly depending on the stage they were at.
Letting out his booming voice, the gorilla began his speech."My fellow Drake kin today is the day that we finally conquer this forest and remove those despicable creatures from our forest. Now are you with me."
Not long after the speech had ended the howling of the Drake Gorillas echoed throughout the forest, followed by the beating of their chests.
This same event had also happened to both the Black Claw Spiders and the Blood tooth Leopards, the only clan that hadn't done anything was the Scarlet Horned Lions led by the large lion that was still busy laughing.
However unknown to them the bird-like creatures had actually lied to all the other beasts and had already amassed an army to leave the forest, leaving all the other creatures to fight amongst themselves and the necromancer.
As a slight grin crept up his face the bird-like creature muttered a few words. "Those fools, they're probably already getting ready to go to war with each other. This will be fun"
Not far from all of this was the cause of this great change. Within the forest, a green miasma had formed and at the centre of it all was a black skeleton, draped in a cloak that covered most of its body.
The body of this skeleton was covered in cracks and seemed to be yelling at an army of other skeletal creatures. "That insignificant bug dared to damage my beautiful body and mess up my entire plan. I'm going to kill him." The being continued speaking but most of it was just the rambling of a madman.
As those words continued a large group of people cloaked in black approached the skeletal creature, each bowing before him and saying in unison."Master, we are at your will."
The skeletal creature turned slightly to look at them, finally stopping his rambling. He then approached one of the people cloaked in black and put his hand atop their head.
As he put his hand atop their head he began to speak as an ominous black energy exited his body."You shall be the one. Find that Bug and squash it in any way you can." Just as he finished those words the follower felt a surge of energy rush into them as the black liquid like mana flowed through them.
The skeletal figure turned around once again and continued with what it was saying."Make sure he suffers and don't let him die till he has lost everything." The figure then disappeared into the green fog as the ominous laughter of the skeletal creature began to slowly fade away.
