Chapitre 338: Anathema Returns to the Warp
(Anathema POV)
Location the Realspace, the Feudalworld Earth-The final days of the American Revolution; America/Ohio
Finally another unnecessary war, between humanity was finished.
America was finally being established, and was free from the monarchy of England, allowing this new land to flourish and become something greater than all other long gone, eras.
As I stand next to apple tree, overlooking the hill of the gorgeous scenery, I recall not some days ago one of those defilers of the Sea of Souls was trying to spy on me.
I push the intrusion back, and I realized that Laharl, Khorne, nor Nurgle would do that soo brash and directly, this must have been the work of the new Chaos God, Tzeentch.
That abominable horror, that makes a shame to innovation and progress for simple unnecessary schemes and betrayals, just for constant change, lies, and mistrust, despite what I've managed to learn from the Raven's minions on Earth, I still don't know enough of Chaos.
As I walked over to the tree, and plucked a apple, I started to think on what I should do next, over the years of purging Chaos and any trace of it from my world, I'm still ignorant of my mortal enemies and Chaos in general.
Eating the apple I plucked, I started to wander around the new lands being made in American soil, I think of ways to get an advantage over my enemies.
Some many days later, I've seen many wonderful things, the end of the foolishness of slavery, more brotherly unity between men, that's when I sensed another source of vile Chaos, in the new world of America, following the trails it let me to a Chaos worshipping settlement of Native Americans, Idians.
Another cult dedicated to a version of Tzeentch, aliting my sword in psychic flames I purged the entire tribe and eradicated all traces of their name or history, once again safe keeping the people from the horrid truth of Chaos.
As I left and travel some ways away from the destroyed settlement, I'd decided to rest, I sat beside a campfire, and day has turned to night, I thought of these threats to Earth, I need more knowledge, and power if I'm to fulfill my purpose of purging Chaos from the Realm of Souls, and free the hold that they have over humanity.
It was time to once again dive into the Warp, this time cause of Tzeentch's constant attempts to sow discord on my world, has earned my ire and attention.
Adjusting myself next to the fire, I closed my eye and focus my mind, power, and being to travel into the Immaterium one more time...
(General POV)
Location the Immaterium-The Realm of the Sorcerors, the Mountains of Questioning
One of Tzeentch's many landmark, a large area of mountains near the Crystal Labyrinth.
Not much is understood in this eldritch landscape, were one questions not only their direction, but their lives, their option and fate, is as the mountains paths and caverns were every choice a being has made, comes to life and question.
Trapping the intruder in a maze of endless, questions, choices, doubts, and much more.
Cause of this strange enigma that saturates the Mountains, Tzeentch has no need of stationing daemons on the area, but the fluxing eyes and the decarabia have taken the mountains as their dwelling, mostly the fluxing eyes finding themselves drawn, almost like the eyes of the mountain.
As these daemonic spirits and lesser daemons of Tzeentch, wander without risk of lost or falling to the effects of the mountains, they suddenly felt something foreign both within them which was the sense of fear, and a intruder closing onto the mountains.
The daemons scrambled in a frenzy, thinking on whether to engage the intruder or inform their higher kin of this.
But just as they were coming to a decision, a bright, burning light akin to a small Sun, shun and illuminate the entire area, not only blinding the tzeentchian daemons that look to the direction of the light...but burn them all in permanent death.
(Anathema POV)
Location the Realm of the Sorcerors, the Outside the Mountains of Questioning
I've finally was able to enter the Immaterium, I immediately recognized this horrid place as the realm of Great Deceiver.
In front of me, was a large trail of mountains, that had little interest to me, whatever was preventing me from navigating the Realm of Chaos, wasn't over the vile domain of the Changer.
I'll take full advantage to this opportunity, with the small knowledge I have of Tzeentch, he is a horder of knowledge and history.
I'll search this entire realm for any signs of a storage of information, and use it against them all, for now I believe that not one of this so called Gods of Immaterium, have noticed me, fortune seems to be shining upon me, drawing my greatsword ignited in psychic flames and started wandering around the Realm of the Sorcerors.
(General POV)
Location the Neutral Zone of Chaos, the Mount Olympus-The Palace of the Dark Gods, The Grand Banquet Hall of Olympus
While Laharl, Nurgle, and Khorne were dealing with important matters, the Daemon Goddesses and the Queens of Nethervoid, or Blood Lands, or Garden respectfully were enjoying themselves still.
That's when while Camilla, Valkia, and Aiikila were enjoying Scylla's music and singing, while drinking their own brewing style of Ambrossia, Aiikila and the other Queens, heard screaming and crying.
Aiikila was the first to react, immediately recognized not only the cries, but the voices calling out, "Mommy!!!" it was her cherished daughters, Limos and Eveline.
Running towards her with their eyes shut, and crying tears of black and mold, the Swarm Queen immediately tossed her cup, and rushed to them, picking them up and trying to soothe them, as they held to her neck tightly crying for her.
All the other Daemon Queens reacted, stopping everything they've were doing to tend to their nieces, even Scylla stopped singing and rush to Aiikila side, trying to find out what was wrong with her dear daughters.
She and the others noticed that they wouldn't open their eyes, immediately Valkia and several Carnage Queens, fear the worst seeing a lot similarities between what happened to them, with what is wrong with their nieces.
At that moment, Aiikila carefully tried to their eyes, making Limos and Eveline flinch, telling their mommy it hurts, she reassured them that she's just checking them, and promise to not hurt them.
When they calmed down enough to allow their mother to check their eyes, upon opening them they'll saw that their eyes weren't burn like Valkia and the others sometime ago, but they were clearly harmed, as if someone flashed a intense and powerful light into their eyes.
Aiikila was very worried and let them close their eyes, kissing them both on the forehead, begged them to tell them what happened, after sniffing and crying for bit longer they told them, what happened...while playing around the palace, they saw a shinning light that made them, very curious and drew them to check it out.
They rushed to the balcony, and look towards their uncle Tzeentch's, domain and then the light became more bigger and intense suddenly, like a huge flash it hurt them, they were blinded and stumbled on the balcony, they help each other back on their feet and they followed the sense of their mommy, back to her...it was as Valkia, and some of the Carnage Queens feared the Anathema, has dared to return to their realm.
They'd helped Aiikila in treating and soothing the poor girls, eventually they've managed to calmed them down enough, to fall asleep on Aiikila's chest.
They'd helped their sister-in-law, Aiikila, onto some cushions so she can be comfortable while tending her poor daughters, one thing is forcertain...not only has that damned, Anathema, done another sin to them, but had incurred Nurgle's wrath when he returns...
Sometime later...
(Anathema POV)
Location the Realm of the Sorcerors, within the Ninth Library
I traveled this wretched place, facing all sorts of vile Warp abominations, from a Lord of Change and all other vile servents of Tzeentch.
Eventually I came to a large structure, from one of the wretched daemons I purified and absorb it's knowledge I've learn of things that I have not expected to occur, from the Dark One marrying more vile she-daemons to add to his bed and coart, to Nurgle being wed and fathering two vile spawn to his horrid lineage, and Tzeentch has seems to grow in strength and power beyond my knowledge.
Now I'm in this eldritch library, reading through books of flesh and other living materials learning much about Chaos that I was once ignorant of...(Had to put both a reason why Nurgle, despises the Emperor soo much that will equal Laharl and Khorne's hatred to him, along with start to build animosity between him and Tzeentch. Since GW never gave a real reason why Chaos and the Emperor were enemies apart from him breaking a deal between them, as well the Emperor isn't a fleshed out enough character like Sigmar was in Fantasy, giving both forces a reason to despise each other.)
Eventually I learned no only more of four current Ruinous Powers of Chaos, but of the still existencing races of the Galaxy, the krorkz degradated to what are now bloodthirsty, warmongers know as orkz, the eldar the most ancient and dominant race were under constant assaults by Chaos, at least this weakens another possible threat before it can find the Earth.
Finishing another book, I tossed it aside and when I was about to reach for another one in this massive hall of dark books, I sensed daemons approaching many disintegrated upon flaring my power, but a couple of Greater Daemons still stood and charged at me with massive kriss like blades.
I easily blocked them with my own burning blade, and pushed them back they screamed at me, that I was "unwelcome" as well as a "abomination to nature" along with other gibberish, uninteresting to me coming from the foul mouths, tzeentchian fielt.
As ready myself for another battle, I must obtain as much knowledge, as he could before Tzeentch and the others come.
(General POV)
Location the Neutral Space-The Infinity Fountain Resting Place
The four brothers were talking, revealing everything that remained unknown to Tzeentch.
Starting from one of the most important subject of their enemy the Anathema, Laharl "mentioned" that his son and first Elder Daemon, Ba'al Allseer, scried the web of time...which Tzeentch was very interested in, Laharl knew that along with Nurgle's constant annoyance about Beelzabub, Tzeentch is going to the same with Ba'al..."Ba'al" saw every varient and possibility of a dangerous threat to Chaos, which lead him and later the other Dark Gods, learning of their collective mortal enemy.
This also lead to the discovery of many things that the Anathema aka the future Emperor of Mankind, being responsible for.
Laharl suspected even when he was just a human, from the Lore that the Emperor must have something to do with Humanity, expanding to the stars but with the rise of Techno Barbarians and the decay of Earth that was soon renamed Terra, he rouse to power and created the predecessors of the semi-current Space Marine, the Thunder Warriors...as the Dark One thought of the new stage of Astartes, "Let's be real the Primarius Marines, was just a stunt to sell more space marine models, while I like their bigger and "easier" to paint, I felt insulted that they wasted time on that, when I could have new Chaos and Daemon model, damn it!!!"
Returning to current conversation, they needed mankind to expand and reproduce into billions across the galaxy, cause that meant more followers, servents, and worshippers for them both from normal humans, to future Space Marines, hence why they...the Blood God and the Dark Harbinger haven't destroyed him yet, especially after what he did to their wives...
Taking a moment to calm down, they spoke next of what is highly important place and artifact within the Realm of Chaos, which is Malafex Temple, that houses the core of the greatest protection of their domains, the Ochain Shield, which prevents any powerful or otherworldly entities from entering and infiltrating their realms, it was the main reason why the Anathema, has been unable to cause trouble to Laharl, Khorne, and Nurgle, so in turn Tzeentch as well.
They've explained or more like Laharl explained every function that the Ochain Shield, has and what is needed to active it's invisible, self-sustaining and empowering barrier over their respective realm.
That's when, as they finished talking of the Ochain Shield and they threats that might come from other worlds, outside their own, they felt a disturbance in the Warp.
A growing, irritating power...that immediately made both Laharl and Khorne, very angry, as Khorne growled out, "The damn Anathema!!! HAS RETURN TO THE IMMATERIUM!!!!" Laharl corrected him, "No. His in Tzeentch's realm." making the Architech of Fate yell, "WHAT DID YOU SAY!!!!?"
Seeing the issue and threat at the moment, they decided to end things there and deal with the problem, helping Tzeentch to banish the Anathema from their domain in the Immaterium.
With that they'll started to fade back to their main bodies...
Location the Realm of the Sorcerors, the Impossible Fortress/Study of the Architech
Tzeentch returned to his body, thrashing and moving around in his study, while still bound to the eldritch tendrils that was helping with his healing.
As he thrashed, his Lords of Change, and heralds/high-daemons came rushing towards telling them of the unnatural intruder in his realm, who was currently in the Ninth Library at the edge between his territory and Nurgle's.
Before Tzeentch could yell and rage, at his daemons he felt a massive source of power, anger, and decay, surging across the Realm of Chaos...originating from his brother, Nurgle...the only though on the Changer's mind at that moment was, "What could possibly, made Nurgle soo mad?"
FLASHBACK, A FEW MOMENTS AGO...
Location the Neutral Zone of Chaos, the Mount Olympus-The Palace of the Dark Gods, The Grand Banquet Hall of Olympus
The three elder Chaos Gods, have returned from the Neutral Space and back into their bodies, they were about to rush directly to Tzeentch's domain, but some servents came kneeling before the three, informing them that both ladies Limos and Eveline, were injured and currently being attended to by their wives.
This obviously shocked them, but at much as Nurgle, who for the first time ran at speed, that should be impossible for his size, both Laharl and Khorne, would have been impressed if not for the urgency of the situation.
Both Khorne and Laharl were the last to arrive at the Banquet Hall, to see Nurgle sitting next to Aiikila, tending to their nieces with Scalpel providing any help she could.
Which were calling to him, and crying, this will not be left unpunished...Valkia and Bellona went to Khorne, while Cassandra and Camilla went to Laharl telling them what happened to Limos and Eveline...
Of course they were all furious to what happened to their young nieces, but then the stench of Decay, Rot, and Death filled the room along with thick, green miasma.
Nurgle was ballistic, nothing of his usual joyliness and grandfatherly persona remained, he asked Scalpel to help his daughters, as best she could, stun for a moment by Nurgle's cold demeanor, she nodded and went back to treating the two Godlings.
He stomped out the room, really unleashing his aura and power, Laharl and Khorne, instructed their wives to remain with Aiikila and the girls, they'll help Nurgle...and quite possibly have to stop him, before he mutilates the Anathema...leaving the room as well...
