Chapter 79 - Is The Emperor Mad? Or...Really Just a Demon?

Abrial made a sour face. "It was weird. It was one of those foggy dreams, you know? Where stuff happens and it's super vague and you can't really remember it after. All I remember is…feeling angry. And seeing him. The Emperor. At least, I think it was him, or what I think he'd look like? I don't know. He had these long, black robes, and his face was pale, like there was no blood in it. It was kinda gross. And there was fog all around him, and it was glowing red, kind of like blood? And he was smiling…Fucking creepy! And nasty. And kind of funny. But…it made me think about how I don't really know a lot about the Emperor at all. You know? I know he's evil and everything, and he killed millions of people, and he hates magicians even though he uses magic…but d'you know anything else you can tell me? Like…who is he? How'd he get the way he is? Why is he like this, why did he kill all those people? Is he just crazy?"
