The Everfree Forest: Still Wednesday
“Now you see Dawn, this right here is the classic evil monologue. A touchstone within the villain repertoire. Watch how he convulses madly as he proclaims his vile intent.”
Luster Dawn scribbled a few lines in her notebook, before glancing back toward the necromancer. He was floating about 20 feet up in the air, a torrent of necrotic energy swirling around him like a vortex of death. The necromancer altogether wasn’t too imposing; he was kind of on the short side, and mostly just looked like a really old pony wearing a black robe. Still, he was flying, which was a little impressive.
Thunder struck in the background as the villain cackled evilly. Twilight tapped Dawn on the shoulder and told her, “This right now is the building tension phase; soon he’s going to attack with his army of the undead. Oh, and now he’s cackling again, I suppose now is as good a time as any.”
Mergalax finished cackling and shouted in his ethereal, booming voice, “AND NOW FOOLS, YOU SHALL WITNESS THE FULL, UNBRIDLED MIGHT OF MERGALAX THE ETERNAL! LORD OF SUF--” He never got to finish, as a sound akin to saw blade slicing through a speeding locomotive boomed, and a blinding light filled the sky as Twilight fired a ray of pure light, which screamed toward the necromancer with unfathomable velocity. He was completely vaporized before even having the chance to comprehend the action.
Twilight gracefully touched back down on the ground, beside her student, “Thus concludes lesson one: You decide when the monologue ends.”
