	A fire that is burning the very fabric of the universe was laid before me. I donned it, becoming a grand villain unlike any of my past lives, and was finally able to beat him. My king and I fought in that town, but it was unlike any other fight. This fight was internal, within me, for it was not only I who donned the title, but my lord.

"The power is mine!" I screamed out loud, fires enveloping everything and everyone around me.

My lordship would not budge from the assault on my mind, my body. I cried flaming tears, fighting my liege, but something happened. We both noticed it, for it was unlike anything before. The King and his Rook fought against a third entity within their shared mind that was unknown until now, and that third entity was terrifying.
That one entity was a child, about the age of six or seven, and was, himself, terrified. Once he gained hold of the body, he began to commit atrocities amongst the land, but we found a way to destroy him. We had to destroy the real him.
Unlike us, he was not meant for this body. His self collided with our self on accident, but that changed things drastically. We killed his body, dying at around the same time, but, again, something had to go wrong. He was still there, and is still there, but I do not know where. All I know is that the kid, whatever he is now, is within my mind...


But, if my friend could escape, then what about the kid?

This realization horrified me as I sat on my porcelain throne, and I quickly finished up and cleaned myself, continuing to think about this. In my dream, Anaxmoros and I both were in our most strongest state, the state of the Burning Man, but we were both incomplete. Could it be that the kid, too, has a piece of our power? Does that mean that the kid is as strong, or stronger, than us? I cannot accept that.

I cannot play around anymore. I need an army to fight both my liege and that kid, before he uses his cunning to get the kid to attack me first...

Now, where is that necromancer... ?
