Private The Muun of Manaan: Ripples in the Void

The chain is swallowed by the moving sand, consumed underneath. The black ooze climbs up the Gargoyles' limbs in the forms of multiple grim tendrils, making their way up until they form an external system resembling veins, as the Gargoyles quake and shake and struggle.

"Thirteen of Tartarus, And those yet to join the Hoard, for the Death's feast in the River's depth, in exchange for the path and keys and gates, of the Bronze Hollows of Tartarus, and for Death's claimed be, those beyond Thirteen..."

In a violent blast of ooze and stone, the Gargoyles crack and break and collapse, until beneath the bogs are vanished... And then, before the sandy shore, a limb stretches out, covered in the black ooze in its skeletal form. In its grasp, a double-edged dagger of Black crystal blade was held, without a handle...

"Signed... In Blood..."
 
As 'signed in blood' is said, the circling of the beast ceases…
A growl of sand is heard slowly building up, and a tsunami of sand is released from each side of Nodafar.
Two demons of molten gold, black claws, eyes pitch red covered in a layer of gold jump out as the sand falls all over,
some into the bog disintegrating or being absorbed by tones of mist escaping as the sand enters.
The two growl and it echoes as if in a room….
They slowly approach the bog and place their hands where the gargoyles were last seen….
Their hands and claws slowly smoke, and they both release a screech….
In the meantime, Nodafar slowly approaches the dagger.
He looks at it for a moment and is taken aback….
He slowly places his left hand where his zabrak heart would be on his chest,
and his right palm embraces the dagger covering it entirely.
He takes a breath and speaks.
"For in time and once discovered,
I will provide you…. YOU DEATH….
with the keys to the doorway and take you into Tartarus.
In return, I will receive the Shards of the guardians, excluding myself and death.
Additionally thirteen of Tartarus who were part of the sixty-six….
With each step of progress, a shard shall be given…."
As he finishes, he clunches into the dagger,
blood begins dripping,
and he slowly pulls his right hand away, letting the blade cut his hand clean

Drip Drip Drip

As the tinny black blobs of blood fall into the bogs, long skeletal tendril-like claws blast out from the bogs, latching against the demon beasts, in a violent near-bending manner around their limbs, while their other side remains deep in the bogs

As the claws cave in, with their miscreated skeletal fingers cracking in the process, the bogs boil once more, as the once waters under the black mist turn crimson, with the metallic scent of blood usurping every inch of this nightmarish dimension...

"I... Death..."

The once holder of the dagger shatters, as the bones fracture in myriad pieces, all lost in the blood's ocean, before the sand...
 
The golden demons screech in vain as they let the transaction unfold and once done they slowly turn into sand....
"I await your timely arrival to Kethess V and so all can begin....
For Tartarus to be no more what it is and once was...."


Slowly the sand the endless dessert begins storming around him slowly covering and taking him in.

The engines roar the hulking warship forth, into the void, as the many turbolaser batteries rotate into life... The following warships accelerate, as the hyperdrive's bleeding radiation explodes, casting one after the other the ships of the armada into hyperspace...

And so, the war for Kethess V...

Had begun...
