THE TESTAMENT OF ARTHURMINATOR (Book One)
🕑 Added 2024-10-20 07:59:24 +0000 UTCCHAPTER 1
==========
1 Once, this universe was without life. 2 At the center of it was an unimaginable source of power shaped as a cube, which came to be
known as the "Cosmic Cube". 3 At a certain point in time the Cosmic Cube sparked, and from that spark came the first of life,
"Tygon and Majikca". 4 Tygon and Magikca came to realize that they each had control over one of two primal forces in the universe.
The "Techno force" and the "Magic force". 5 Tygon was master of the Techno force, while Majikca controlled the Magic force.
6 A time came when Majikca persuaded Tygon that they too should create more life, and Tygon agreed. 7 Their first set of creations
were heavily problematic and unstable, also incapable of surviving the harshness of space. 8 So they created the first planet called Oaton.
9 There they created their first living species. Creatures of self-awareness but lacked intelligence. 10 They were driven by one impulse.
11 The need to feed. 12 The length of their survival and reproduction depended on their consumption rate. 13 They were capable of
consuming matter and energy of any substance, so they consumed anything and everything in their path except themselves. 14 Tygon and
Magikca were displeased with the nature of their creation so they named them "The Destroyers". 15 Tygon locked them away in a pocket
dimension, where they would remain in stasis forever until they figured out what to do with them. 16 Next Tygon and Majikca created
a new species. A better one. One that was sentient and also of greater intelligence. 17 The two parents named them the "Algotorians", and
the Algotorians named their creators "the Parentials". 18 Tygon and Majikca were most pleased with their new creations, and so they
established a close relationship with them. 19 Regardless of the Algotorians' fine features, there was still a most concerning and
notable flaw. 20 Unlike their creators, they were mortal. 21 They discovered this when a few of them had died from fatal wounds and diseases.
22 The surviving Algotorians were overwhelmed with fear. The fear of Death. 23 And so they began to put all effort into finding a way to
cheat death. 24 Their research eventually led them to the Cosmic Cube. 25 But the Parentials refused them, out of fear that meddling
with the Cosmic Cube could lead to their undoing. 26 This enraged the Algotorians and led them to plot the demise of the parentials.
27 They built a near indestructible creature of immense power. One who dealt the parentials a serious blow that forced them to retreat.
28 The creature was named "Galaxia". 29 Enraged by the Algotorians' betrayal the Parentials created a small group of creatures to aid
them in their fight against Galaxia and the Algotorians. 30 These creatures were called the Trildren. 31 With the Trildren by their side,
the Parentials were able to match the combined might of Galaxia and the Algotorians. 32 To the devastating horror of the Algotorians,
Tygon unleashed the Destroyers. 33 And just like that, the Algotorians were horribly wiped from existence. 34 Galaxia had failed them and
was defeated. 35 Depleated and uncertain of her fate, Galaxia fled, swearing to avenge her creators. 36 Not too long after the war, it was
discovered that the Trildren too suffered mortality. 37 So Tygon and Majikca created a realm called "Homma", a place that would serve as home
to the Trildren. 38 A place designed to keep them alive forever until a better and more permanent solution was discovered.
CHAPTER 2
============
1 And so it was that three more realms were then created. Each located in a different corner of the universe. 2 Vendagard the first
of the three, was created within the Techno Force. 3 Volgatory the second, was created within the Magic force. 4 And lastly was Kraton,
made at the very center of the two fundamental forces. 5 Tygon and Majikca began creating more life on each planet, but none of them
possessed immortality. 6 Tygon grew tired of their failures and suddenly it became clear that the Cosmic Cube was their only hope to succeed.
7 But Majikca protested, refusing to tamper with the very source of all existence. 8 And so sparked a bitter conflict between the two that
split the Trildren in half as a result. 9 Majikca and her Trildren would defend the Cosmic Cube from Tygon and his Trildren, in a war that
seemed to last for an eternity. 10 While the gods fought over the Cosmic Cube, the three new realms were left abandoned. 11 The species of
each realm had to evolve and develop on their own. 12 They also had the ability to reproduce. And so they did. 13 As time went by the three
realms discovered each other. 14 Civilizations were built, and destroyed. Some were even lost. 15 Wars were waged and peace treaties
were signed. All of which forged the three realms as they are known today.
CHAPTER 3
===========
1 The three realms created and abandoned by the Parentials grew and evolved on their own. 2 Civilizations were built, destroyed and even
forgotten on all three realms. 3 In time Vendagardians discovered the other two realms and established relations with them.
4 The inhabitants of Kraton, the youngest realm of the three came to adore and look up to the inhabitants of the two older realms.
Some of them even went as far as to worship them. 5 In the year 104A.U.(After Unity of the Trinity Realms) The Dark Lord and High King
"Molgren" of Volgatory sort to use the submissiveness of the Kratonians to his advantage. 6 Kraton was the only realm among-st the three to
have both the Magic and Techno Force within it. The thought of harnessing such power filled Molgren's heart. 7 And so he began to establish
dominance over Kraton and it's inhabitants. 8 But God King "Razriel" of Vendagard opposed him and it sparked a long bitter war between the
three realms. A war that lasted for centuries. 9 And so it was called the "Eternal War". 10 In the year 300A.U. Molgren was slain.
11 God King Razriel forged a pact with Volgatory's new Dark Lord, High King Konarr. A treaty that forced the three realms to cut ties and
never make contact with each other again. 12 God King Razriel died soon after the treaty. A new God King, Garon was crowned and tasked with
honoring and making sure that the treaty was honored. And so it was. 13 Many Kratonians raised statues and monuments to honor the
Vendagardians and the Volgatorians. 14 Generations came and went. Adoration became worship. Guidance became doctrine. And memorial became
religion.
CHAPTER 4
===========
1 I, Arthurminator, was born to a family of Mobhans, just a regular child like most others. 2 But I was born and raised as a soldier. 3
I was thrown into a war I never asked for, and taught to hate an enemy I never even knew. 4 My father was a harsh man, he beat and shamed me
partly into the man I am now. 5 I was indoctrinated and forced to serve in God King Garon's secret army on Kraton. 6 The army were more of
an extremist group of religious fanatics. 7 For years I fought in their war, and I lost friends and comrades to the forces of Garon's sworn
enemy, "Garathon" the Dark Lord and High King of Volgatory in my time. 8 Garathon strangely was an Anjul from Vendagard, turned traitor, who
thanks to his genius and patience became ruler of the realm of Volgatory. 9 Sometime before I was born he secretly made his way to Kraton where
he had acquired powerful allies both government and criminal. 10 And when Garon had found out about this, he sent three of his trusted spies to
create a secret rebel force to aid them in assassinating Garathon and gaining his allies in other to secretly establish his own reign on Kraton
without Volgatory and the rest of Vendagard finding out about it. 11 Which would have started a full scale war, and Garon would have been
dethroned. 12 The years went by and soon our forces where depleted after a devastating ambush at a place we called "Stonefalls camp" in
Zakarr, and I found myself alone with just Darath, one of Garon's Anjul spies. 13 He was an expert weapons craftsmith who designed and upgraded
my weapons. He also gave me a device that uploaded some combat skills into my brain, completing the training I came for. At the time, that was
the most amazing technology I had ever seen. 14 Not too long after, we parted, never to see each other again. 15 As the years went by, I had
been on many missions, and I had also seen many horrors and helped stop a lot of them. Some unfortunately, only temporarily.
16 I also made many new friends and allies. One of which was Elantra. A woman I quickly fell in love with. 17 She was kind and gentle, but
yet bold and strong. She was composed and wiser than most around her. 18 She also helped me to understand more clearly the world around me
and kept me from giving in completely to the pain and horror that overwhelmed me from all that I had seen and been through throughout my life.
19 Unexpectedly she too had fallen in love with me. She saw great potential in me that I never even thought I was capable of. 20 One beautiful
night, she made love to me. What a magical night it was. 21 Afterwards she revealed to me that she was a witch, and a member of a secret cult
known as "The Darkmoon Sisterhood" that served an entity called Galaxia. 22 She told me Galaxia's story and how Garon and Garathon were far
less of a treat compared to the Trildren and the parentials. 23 Never before had I felt so afraid, so trapped that I froze for a while to
process all that I had heard. 24 Everything she told me reshaped my perception of the universe, and for the first time I truly and strangely
felt born again, into a whole new world. I had come to realize that Garon and Garathon weren't the most powerful gods in existence as I was
taught, there were others far greater that have been around long before even their existence, and we were smack in the middle of their war.
I could not suppress my hunger to know more, I had to know more, and find out if any of it was true.
25 On another night Elantra took me to a secret location where she introduced me to her other lover "Kalaia". 26 Kalaia was absolutely stunning,
I will not lie I was taken by her beauty. 27 Much to my surprise Elantra had told her earlier all about me, and she was very accepting of me
and interested in getting to know me better, up close. And I too looked forward to knowing her as well. 28 Shortly I was taken to an inner
chamber, where I was introduced to Galaxia herself. 29 Never before had I been in such awe as I was when I saw her. 30 She was made of
darkness and stars, her eyes jade green and flaming like the sun. 31 Parts of her skin were golden and they glistened so beautifully
in the dark. 32 She came to me and introduced herself, and told me I was needed to provide information on Garon and his plans, and I was also
needed to get close to Garathon in other to find out more about him. 33 At first I felt like I was being tricked and I resisted, reminding
her that Garathon had been my enemy since I was a child. 34 Elantra reminded me that the story behind the war was more complicated than I was
lead to believe, and it would be better if we all knew more. 35 Galaxia needed powerful allies that she could trust, allies that were just
and honorable. 36 She was told that I possessed such qualities and that I would be someone Garathon would be more open to, because from
what Kalaia had told her, he too shared such similarities. 37 Kalaia would have chosen Demondfist, her superior for the job but he was too full
of pride and ambition. 38 Then I realized the wisdom in hearing all sides of the story before passing judgement, and it seemed like the right
thing to do, so I agreed. As a sign of approval and acceptance, Galaxia kissed me, and welcomed me with open arms.
39 Kalaia was relieved, and most pleased. That night, we got to know each other a little better, up close. 40 It was a night to remember.
It was I, Kalaia and Elantra, three of us making sweet and intimate love like lovers who had been apart for centuries. 41 The task of being sleeper
agents made it impossible for Kalaia and Elantra to meet often, it was clear just how much they missed each other. 42 I could see it in the way they held each other. The way they kissed one another. And yet they loved me too like a lover they had searched for, for so long. It was beautiful.
43 I couldn't remember the last time I felt so loved, most of my life I spent fighting and
being taught how to kill. Love was something I didn't have much luck with, nor did I have time for. 44 Later that night, Kalaia told me their
story. 45 She told me how Elantra's mother was killed by a creature called "Witchburn", when she was a baby. 46 Elantra's father took her
and fled for their lives. Years later he met and married Kalaia's mother and was mysteriously killed years later. 47 During Kalaia and
Elantra's teen age, they were initiated into a coven after Kalaia's mother revealed to them that she was a grand witch. 48 A few years
later, their coven was attacked by Witchburn who revealed that Kalaia's mother was responsible for both her father and Elantra's father's
deaths. 49 Kalaia and Elantra ran for their lives and never looked back. 50 They had been inseparable ever since, and even became lovers.
51 Kalaia and Elantra were still apprentice witches at the time, and so they had a lot of trouble handling their powers which when used
often, drained them of energy. 52 They discovered and began draining people of their life force in other to replenish themselves, until
Galaxia found them and took them in. 52 She taught them how to use "Power Stones" which helped them tap into the magic force, and
provide them with the energy they needed to cast their own magic. 53 After Galaxia told them of the massacre of her creators, and how
they were still out to kill her as well, they vowed to stand by her and help her fight her enemies as well. And they've been with her
ever since. 54 Now that I had agreed to help them, they were one step closer to securing powerful allies to fight the Trildren and the
Parentials.
55 In time and in the right setting, Kalaia introduced me to Garathon. 40 In other to gain his trust I was sent on multiple missions that
actually took me by surprise. 41 They were peace keeping missions and dangerous criminal gang busts. 42 During some of those missions I
witnessed horrific acts of violence against innocents by some of the criminals we were sent to "neutralize". 43 I felt played, because the
Garathon I was taught to fear all my life was nothing like the one I was working for. 44 So one day I asked him why he was doing all
he was doing, and he told me that the universe was a cruel and harsh place, so much injustice and chaos spread unchecked and not enough
was being done to stop it all. 45 So he made it his life's mission to bring harmony, peace and justice to the three realms by bringing them
together and ruling over them all. 46 He went on to reveal that Garon originally had the idea of ruling Kraton in other to take advantage
of it's position between the Magic force and the Techno force, but Garathon's wife refused to be a part in breaking the treaty that her
ancestors made, and so she was killed and Garathon framed for her murder in other to get rid of him, in anticipation that he would want
revenge. 47 Garathon swore to take everything away from Garon before finally killing him. 48 In the process of seeking his revenge, he
discovered the necessity to unite the three realms in other to prevent any future realm wars. And so he began his mission in other to save the
three realms and honor his dead wife. 48 Never before had I felt so betrayed and deceived. Everything I was forced to do, all the years I
sacrificed, all the people I had killed, and those I had lost, it was all for a lie. 49 I felt lost, but I knew I had to pick a side in other
to survive. In other to stop the blood shed and lies, so that other children wouldn't have to share my fate. 50 So I chose Garathon.
And before too long, we became friends.
CHAPTER 5
===========
1 The Knights of Vendagard were formed to fight the forces of Garathon and help Garon's spies to finish their ultimate mission. 2 In time
the team fell apart, after the death of one of their members, "Greentone". 2 Her death drove her lover, my little brother "Hammerage" into
severe depression, and he became obsessed with finding a way to bring her back to life. 3 And so his mission led him in another direction,
leaving the team weakened. In time, the team lost faith and went their separate ways. 4 Razrak, a member of the team and one of Garon's spies
sent word to Garon, reporting that the mission was a failure. 5 Left with no other choice Garon spread word of Garathon's presence on Kraton
and launched a full scale invasion. 6 War broke out on Kraton between the Vendagardians and the Kratonians. 7 Both sides fought fiercely and
suffered heavy losses. 8 Superheroes and some super villains united to fight off the invading force and rescue as many innocents as they could.
9 The Vendagardians were fought to a stand still but were difficult to overcome due to their superior fire power and technology. 10 But the
Vendagardians were at a disadvantage. As long as they remained on Kraton, their technology worked at medium power due to the interference
of the magic force. 11 A week later during a battle in "Metanon", Garathon's army from Volgatory finally arrived with Queen Vulaaya
(Lord Garathon's wife and queen of Volgatory) leading the charge. With their help Kraton's forces were able to crush the remaining
forces of Vendagard. The surviving superiors surrendered and the war was over. 12 By this time, I, Garathon and his Legion of Doom
were already in Vendagard trying to capture Garon before he made an attempt to escape or regroup. 13 We arrived in "Yolden" the city of kings,
and I and some of the other members of Garathon's Legion of Doom were held stiff in awe of how grand, huge and beautiful it was. 14 We
quickly hurried to move into position, then we split into three teams and went in three different directions. 15 One to destabilize the
palace's defense system, the other to broadcast a message to expose Garon and urge the Vendagardians to end the war, while the rest
moved in to capture Garon. 16 We found him and his loyal companions in the throne room and a fierce battle began. 14 Never before had
I fought beings of such incredible power and skill. And never before had I ever seen Garathon fight, but he fought with skill no warrior
I had ever seen possessed. 15 He quickly cleared through Garon's guards and the rest of us held off the other guards within the palace
with orders not to kill them. 16 Garathon ordered Garon to surrender but Garon refused and instead, filled with pride and anger he
revealed that he should have killed Garathon when he had the chance, just like his wife. 17 Garathon became blinded with pain and rage,
so he lashed out at Garon. Out from a corner came charging "Aldohim" (Garon's son and Prince) to strike Garathon from behind and I
quickly jumped in to protect Garathon. 18 Suddenly there was a moment of silence, and I felt a severe sharp pain in my lower torso.
19 l looked down and saw Aldohim's blade in me, then I looked back up at him and in that moment I realized my situation. 20 He removed
his sword and I fell to the floor. 21 Garathon ran to me and held me in his arms with pain and regret in his eyes. 22 I was so weak and
in a lot of pain. He held my hand and apologized to me, but I told him not to be sorry, I was honored to fight and die for him.
23 And he said to me; "The honor is mine brother!". My heart filled with pride and joy, and I smiled, then my eyes closed shut.
