In a world where the boundaries between realms are thin, and darkness festers in the unseen corners, there arose a queen unlike any other—Aalia. She was not born of flesh and blood, but of shadow and fire, a being forged in the deepest pits of the Underworld. Her very presence was an omen of calamity. Aalia was the ruler of the Hellish Dominion, and she coveted the lands of the living, seeking to expand her realm into the mortal world.
Aalia's rise to power was swift and terrifying. The people of the ancient kingdoms—whose histories were rich with wisdom and culture, and whose lands were lush with life—had long forgotten the old legends of the Demon Queen. But Aalia had not forgotten them. She knew that the world's greatest civilizations were scattered like jewels across the land, their people strong and proud, each with their own deep-rooted histories, values, and religions. She coveted them all.
Her first target was the land of the Mountain Kingdoms, where fierce warriors and mystics once protected the highest peaks. She summoned forth the armies of the Underworld—twisted beasts of flame and shadow, riders of destruction who tore through the Himalayas and into the valley cities below. The skies grew dark, and the air turned cold as Aalia's influence spread. Those who resisted were crushed, their very spirits consumed by the demon queen's power.
But Aalia's conquest didn't stop at the mountains. She moved swiftly, laying waste to the kingdoms in the south. Nations that once stood as bastions of culture and faith fell under her relentless onslaught. She spread a darkness across India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Afghanistan, and Tibet, consuming everything in her path.
The people of these lands tried to fight back. Brave warriors rose, invoking the ancient gods and legends of their ancestors. But nothing could stand against Aalia's dark magic. The heavens themselves seemed to tremble in fear as she commanded the elements—earth, fire, water, and air—to bend to her will. She reshaped the land, summoning storms, floods, and earthquakes to destroy entire cities.
Aalia was not just a conqueror; she was a destroyer of worlds, and in her wake, there was nothing but ruin. The once-thriving cultures that spanned millennia were reduced to ash and rubble, their monuments to the past broken and forgotten.
