The Meranthe Chronicle

[Zilly]

The Grand Spectacle



A Mystery had come to Meranthe, Darkness had spread throughout the land and divine power had waned. Leaving many devout
and Nephilim alike weakened in it's wake. The wards upon the Tower were slowly losing their strength until today they opened and a
strange figure invited all to participate in a tourney for great prizes and fame.






And so it began innocently enough. The Fighters taking part in restrained contests of skill. But then things changed...





What came next was a series of intense but still seemingly sporting fights. Even I competed and managed to capture some on this page
for you to watch.

Abomination
Loki VS Raithe
Tempie Vs Edward

But then the mood shifted even darker than before. The energy sapped from the combatants and the mysterious Hosts
intentions made a bit more clear.






And so everyone was trapped. Each time a magi fell their power was drained and we were taken further and further into the void.
Left with no choice the contest went on, though the mood had turned grim.











We were now inside of it. The void. All it's horror and beauty before us. But the tournament went on.

Na'Ria VS Cynder
Xarxes VS Elvyn
Kyria VS Rin
Keku VS Xarxes




With all the combatants whittled down to two we braced ourselves for whatever the end might be.
This was not a sight that Mankind had wished for either as we looked up the finalists.
















Before the Arena descended into chaos the Champion had a meager few words for the people of Meranthe.







With that the story ends.
A mystery turned tragedy for some, even as others reveled in the chaos wrought.
Nearly every non-magi is thought to be dead, it was without a doubt a massacre.
But what does this mean for the future?
