((I may be off and on the next few days, so if I disappear or delay posting, advanced apologies.))<br/><br/>The Beast God eyed his follower, the last devoted one to save this old god. Yes. He would reward him well.<br/><br/>"Devotion. Swear your loyalty to me, give me your spirit. For too long have I suffered, tormented by near death because of my betrayal. Abandoned by my own people, faithful followers slain or cast out, while I am forced to retreat to my forgotten home only to suffer a much-wanted death. However, Diran, you have saved me. You, child, have become my savior and I shall reward you. And you, Linai, are lucky this day. Swear fealty to me, in mind body and soul, do as I ask and I shall spare even your greedy soul, and you shall be rich with treasure!"<br/><br/>The Beast God stood, slowly, as he shimmered into near solidity. Only a small shimmer here and there showed him only Celestial, and not of flesh. He looked proud, eager to be alive! Eying Diran and Linai, he spoke again.<br/><br/>"Join me, children, and I shall gain back my power. I shall have my vengeance, the people shall know fear! I shall consume this world from the god who stole my life!"<br/><br/>The god raised his hands as if to show the world gripped in them.<br/><br/>"Yes. They shall know me as the Beast God once more, and know my wrath in its true form! Yes and Diran, son of Murex, YOU SHALL BE MY BODY!!" he screamed as he clenched his fists, a strange red glow about them.<br/><br/>The Beast God laughed maniacally, his rage so clear in his eyes, and the torches' flames blowing up as he did so.
