[b][i]Of Fire and Metal[/i][/b] [b][i]Deep within the cosmos of space...[/i][/b] [i]"My lord, Althreath...may I speak to thee?"[/i] [b][i]"Thou haveth been granted the gift of speech, Kronos."[/i][/b] [i]Within a massive, dimmed circular room that was the center of a planet-sized structure, sat a silent, omnipotent being of metal and circuitry, the gleaming mixture of skin that he wore over his exoskeleton constantly shifting and molding together, their bonds tightening with every second. Throughout the crevices and cracks in the being's skin and the walls of the dim room, bright orange light shined throughout the metal, enlightening the room with a faint glow.[/i] [i]The figurine that was referred to as Althreath stood in his place, at a height of perhaps ten feet tall. His metallic eyes opened, red-orange light issuing from his pupils. The being who had spoken first was more than twice his height - a hulking monstrosity of metal and steel, it's body at least twenty-five feet tall, while it's knees were bent in a deep kneel towards it's master.[/i] [i]"The planet of Tatakai is vulnerable to our inevitable triumph over it. Rumors...that the Dread have revealed themselves. That they are bringing the world to an end. To ensure that this is the only possibility, must I order our forces to attack as well? And of course, issue an alert to our associate that her role has come?"[/i] [i][b]"I will allow you to complete both tasks, Kronos. Issue out a small invasion force, and contact the young woman who will be taking care of the...problems. Thank you for approaching me for this - you are dismissed, my Titan.."[/b][/i] [b][i]Dojoville, Tatakai[/i][/b] [i]The skies of Tatakai shifted and changed into a dark orange gleam, before massive, circular-like entities began to rip through space and time upon their arrival, each hovering over Dojoville silently. Orders and codes were shot out to each, as their circular, portal-like shapes in their center pieces shifted and changed - before hundreds of cyborg-like organisms spewed from their depths, War Machines and Death-Dealers charging towards the ongoing chaos. They raised their gleaming energy rifles and bows, raining down hell upon those unlucky enough to stand in their way.[/i] [b][i]"PREPARE THYSELVES FOR EMANCIPATION, PEOPLE OF TATAKAI. FOR I AM ALTHREATH - DEVOURER OF METAL, DESTROYER OF WORLDS. AND I WILL ENSURE THAT THE ONLY OUTCOME OF THIS... IS YOUR DEMISE."[/i][/b] ((Open.)) ((Quite a nice time to reveal a plot villain, isn't it?))
