"Thorn in our proverbial bike tire?"

The Lord of Destruction mused upon his brother's words silently. Most of what was said he knew already, having been there himself. The real question was the significance of such a reminder; perhaps he could follow the sense behind Diablo's message if he considered it.

The realm of dreams. Dah'Li. It was not a banishment that gnawed at Anubis too much; he found more pleasure in the nightmares and death visions of his Egyptian worshippers than that particular one-trick dream dimension could ever offer. The being who had banished them though, be he of godlike or angelic power or whatever classification suited his level of ability, he was a different story. It was not the particular realm the brothers were kept out of that bothered Anubis; it was the very fact that someone had the audacity to keep him from going whereever he wanted, whether it was a place he would want to go or not. The very fact that this being had the means to destroy them and did not use it perturbed him as well. Why hide away anything that could destroy your enemies? Anubis growled, his hatred of creation growing. An enemy that did not even attempt to destroy you, only allow you to exist elsewhere in peace, was more loathsome to him. If the situation were reversed and he or either of his brothers held the gem, their foe would not last long. Diablo had not answered his question completely, but in recounting their origin, he may very well have. Whomever was sent to retrieve the gem must be agents of their enemy, pawns, just as Diablo's minions were theirs.

"Ringwraiths...perhaps this gem is part of some bit of jewelry, and perhaps these particular wraiths have expertise in retrieving such items. Pray they do more than instill terror and fear brother...if they can deliver this gem to us, we will do what our foe has always been too weak to do.

Such destruction...such delicious, delicious destruction..."

The ebon, godlike being licked his chops in anticipation of the destruction soon to come...
