Dawning of the Darkest Sun (Intro)

The Terror of BEAST

The voice heard in the midst of a dream, thundering terribly over a howling chorus of fire…

Beyond the eyes of men is the great flickering darkness, the Abyss of Chaos, from which my strength is drawn. No living thing can look upon the Abyss, but I – I of neither life nor death but the great Shadow between both – I sustain myself upon the whirling darkness! All things are my slaves, all slaves are my prey… I am the Carnivore from which all Carnivores proceed, the greatest of all beasts. Let flesh submit to the reign of the tooth and the claw and the unyielding shadow. Behold, by blood I break the seals of Chaos and flood the Earth with madness and foam, nothing is beyond my terror. Your old men shall never wish to wake, your young men shall never wish to sleep, your women and children shall be ever haunted by my shadow. You shall know that I am true by the woman on the water.

I am terror incarnate.

I am BEAST.

You wake…

Excerpted from a report by the International Press…

The woman, discovered by a Coast Guard cutter returning from training exercises, was unconscious when she was recovered from her makeshift raft. She was brought to a local hospital for treatment for exhaustion, dehydration, and numerous cuts, some as long as eighty centimeters. She remains in a comatose and critical - but stable - condition, according to doctors. Medical professionals diligently work to restore her to consciousness.

The woman’s identity is still a mystery, and authorities have been unable to determine her nation of origin. All efforts have failed to yield positive results, and until she awakes, it appears her name and home will remain an enigma…

Moving among the cliffside forests of Gholgoth, It stopped. Something was rumbling through the auras of the world. Even here, in the lands that It had rulled uncontested for centuries, something felt different.

"BEAST..." it muttered, as it remembered a time long ago. It had known many Beasts. One of the most powerful was just returned to a vessel of flesh. The Beast, known as Delta to the peoples of the world, had plans to make a sizable chunk of Europe transform. Now that this one had started to wake...

He sat in his cave temple. Brooding was not the word for what he did, more of deep thought. Sitting on a throne surrounded by bones, he reached out from his body and from Gholgoth to 'speak' to BEAST. "I know you... Perhaps you remember me. I am Gar. The Executioner. The Taker. You have been silent for many generations, BEAST. Why do you stir now?"
