1 The Beginning

Smoke clouded my vision as I woke upon the cold floor I was confused my head split with a searing headache I looked around me the walls glistening with water and the floor in contrast a stone as dark as the night dwelling upon the world, the bright stars only cementing the darkness of the sky.

I looked around and found a throne a man atop this throne he was majestic and fierce his long thick brown beard wrapped around his body like a toga he seemed like an Italian man he had a beer belly and yet he seemed to be in perfect shape his muscles seemed to glisten like a lake on a hot summer's day

I called out to him "Hello ?"

His voice seemed as loud as a waterfall as his words seared into my brain,

"Hahahaha petty human prepare to be sacrificed to a higher race of being..."

His voice echoed and he stretched out his hand a blinding light appeared from his hand and it reached me in an instant my body was lifted into the air and I felt something being drained from me then all of a sudden the man started to squeal like a piglet as I felt my body bulge and a burning hot sensation overcame me I suddenly felt the knowledge of eon's of existence flow into my brain.

The millennia of loneliness and sudden bang of life I felt enlightened as if the secrets to the world had been unlocked and it suddenly disappeared the man looked at me as if I'd murdered his whole family in front of him

I asked him "What happened?"

He muttered "It's you, your fate, it is to absorb all life in the universe you will return the universe to emptiness Ha Haha HAHAHA"

The man shattered like glass and turned to dust soon after this dust was launched into the center of my body I felt enlightenment the same sensation as before but soon it disappeared again.

An ageless voice soon echoed in my head and the head splitting headache came again

"Gian Antonio di Piombo seek the man who is saught by the Athelstan Empire he will help you..."

The voice trailed off

"What ?" Antonio asked but no response came back.

"I should probably find out where I am ?"

Gian Antonio asked himself

"You are in the Pacific Empire Master"

Gian Antonio spun around and asked

"Who the hell are you and why are you calling me master !"

"I am your faithful servant Isabel di Portoy"

A puzzled look crossed Gian Antonio's face

"Here in the Pacific Empire strength is absolute you defeated my previous master so you are now my master"

"Ok, where in the Pacific Empire am I ?"

"You are in the Sternberg Fortress in the Northwest territory of the empire"

"Soooo do I own Sternberg Fortress now ?"

"Yes you are the owner of this Fortress and all its slaves"

"That makes sense... Wait a minute! Slaves! Why?"

"It is natural for noblemen to own slaves to do all the menial tasks"

"What about you?"

"Yes I'm also your faithful servant"

"Eh whatever I never was a good guy, take me on a tour of the place"

"Of course master we are in the throne room currently, behind the throne is the treasure room it has 32 tons of gold and 32 tons of silver, it also has various Gemstones and equipment of all types"

"All right let's go there first"
