Subject: Love and Flesh

Cold was the darkest island that lay in the mists of the Dark Ocean. The ebony clouds, produced by the evaporating inky water below now blocking away the Dragon sun and it�s warmth. Large bugs with massive glowing eyes scurried across the dead grass to another black rock. A lizard caught them in massive black jaws, chewing them and swallowing in speed. Then peers through two black pools of oil it had for eyes, looking for another bug to eat.

This land was purely untouched by the Dracans. No technology, or civilization for that matter was on this tiny island. It was too dark� too creepy for the Dracans to inhabit it. Instead, the Dark Dracans made it a natural preserve for the natural flora and fauna. It only made sense. So here the creatures flourished, no worries.

Well, they had no worries. Something made all the creatures turn and scurry off in a great hurry. A glowing pool of darkness appeared. In it�s black depths, a horrible wilted face was projected on it. It calmly stared into nothingness with eye-less sockets.

It screeched a horrifying roar, more monster then anything. A great caped form exploded out of the black well. Splashing black at everything around it. What the dark fluid touched disappeared into nothing, erased from existence.

Flesh Mage was his name. Flesh was his game.

His gruesome talons, slashed at the air. Three glowing slash marks were left in the sky, until it quickly healed. Flesh Mage released another enraged snarl, his face slightly moving to show his angry expression. He flung his cape to his side, and shouted. �Cursed.. LIGHT! His hissing wasn�t as interfering when he yelled like this. But his temper was short lived.

His cape settled to the ground he hovered over legless-ly. Flesh Mage knew of this place.. It�s darkness.. �Ssssoo.. Perfect�� He hissed to his terrifying self. He hovered around, and watched the creatures scurry away from his shadow. So much like his scavengers.. He saw them flee into the nearby shrubbery. �My children��

When he softly growled these words, his hand slowly raised with a slight purple aura to it. The creatures gained a similar aura, and hovered above the ground, and were all drawn around Flesh Mage. He gently waved his hand, and the creatures all circled him. The undead monster�s body took on the same glow. He reached out with a second hand, and the spinning bugs and lizards all circled faster, becoming nothing but silhouettes. He conducted them gently with his grotesque hands, neither smiling, nor frowning as he did.

�Become� perfect.. with me�� His opened palms closed suddenly, the creatures turned into the familiar forms; Scavengers. They were all dropped with a heavy �thud!�

The clumsy large armed creatures hissed and roared at each other, snapping at any nearby animal, some even catching and eating them. They all made an awful lot of noise, there were only about fifteen of them.

Flesh Mage formulated a plan while he watched the newly birthed Scavengers. �Yesss� It� It issss� perfect..� He formed a portal big enough for the Scavengers to fit. Them stared at them all. �Bring me� the.. ssssservant�. of Darknessss� Kill.. the otherssss... Essspecially� the ssssservant of.. LIGHT!� A soft growl overcame the Flesh Mage, and he sounded like one of the Scavengers himself.

The blue and pink creatures raised their arms and roared in unison, then ran to the bright portal. They would obey their master.. their creator.. They will bring his bride!
