The wind blew in its circular, never monotones motion. “The wind can blow you away.” Was the saying of a once wise mage? He is still living today, just not in plain sight. The wind is always on a travel, but now, we must dock down towards “Devil’s Plains”. The wind stopped suddenly. The eyes of the sky zoom in on none other than the sinister Chaos Mage. Who else to control the forces of wind travel? Who else to deliberately stop the wind and burden the ships relying on wind travel? The burden of mankind walked the murky dirt like a plague. Villages long destroyed thought of him as a epidemic that couldn’t be wiped out, a bug that can’t be smashed, wood that can’t be broken. CM’s eyes rolled over the field, quickly scanning for life. The grass became devoid of life wherever he stepped. He, now standing in the center of the plain, the fighting area, was now in full view. His eyes were like a thousand daggers, pointing into your flesh and drawing blood the minute he laid them on you. What they landed on never saw anything besides him. His face was paler than that of a ghost, yet slightly green. Two long black streaks ran down the side of his face. His hair was wild yet strangely deadly to the look. Men had spoken before they too had died that his smile was that of one meaning you too are to die at his hands. His arms were very powerful and versatile, as flexible as those who are double jointed. They looked as if they had jammed many sharp, powerful things into men’s abdomens, ripping out their intestines and liver. He spat on the ground, his saliva burning a hold through it. He sat on a rock staring to the sky, thinking; How did it ever come to this? How did I ever come to hold a thirst for bloodshed and destruction? Is my existence just the purpose of slaying a man to drink his blood and bask in its warmth? Am I nothing more than a leech? Must I continue to feed off souls that have passed on to a dark realm of shadows that will never come to pass? Am I nothing more than what they[\b] wanted me to become; a weapon? My power is what made me what I am now, a power hungry madman. But I must say, my heart is colder than the atlantic ridges. I dream for the perfect fight, for one to test true endurance and intellect. Has that fight come to pass for me? Have I been living in a dream world?
CM laid his backside over the rock giving off a sigh. He no longer seemed as violent as people believed him to be. He looked as if he was at peace in the world. He chortled to himself as he, for once with no evil intent, smiled carelessly. His eyes brimmed with consent for the world around him. This was a truly remarkable feat for one with so much inner conflict, or was it? He hoisted himself to an upright postion on the rock. He scanned the horizon and, filling him with inner torment and remorse, saw no life around. It was been brewing with life and the sounds of joy….before he came in. He caused great pain to the forest by spreading his evil aura and burning the grass of the area. His ears perked suddenly with the sound of footsteps; blood was in the air. He lept off his rock and his expression changed suddenly, back to a violent, sadistical man. It was a hiker making his way through the forest trail. CM grinned and picked up a broken tree branch. Quite thick, should be enough to kill him. CM dissipated with the log in hand into the air. The hiker had walked into the field and sat down on the rock to rest himself. An ice cold voice paralyzed him; You know, you really shouldn’t be in the woods…..all alone. CM swung the branch at the back of the man’s skull. They collided and the branch broke, and the man’s skull cracked. He fell to the ground like a dead man. CM took the man’s hiking stick and jammed it into a hole in a nearby log. He sharpened it thoroughly and went back to the man. He lifted the man with two hands and tossed him in front of himself. He tossed the sharpened stick at the man’s skull, impaling the man and killing him instantly.
