After a couple days of annoying travel, Prince Christof and a hand full of his most talented Emerald Knights finally arrived to Itomori. Prince Christof and his five knights were disguised as elven merchants. The six of them were escorted to the throne room of Itomori castle. Behind christof and the five were carts chock full of various goods. "Queen Saya~ A pleasure to finally meet you!" One of the knights disguised as the merchant leader. "Sorry for our late arrival~ I promise you will not be disappointed by what we have brought forth!" The merchant leader smiled as he and the others bowed respectfully.
Barely even fifteen minutes later, The merchants were showing Saya and her guards their various wares, weapons and random items. Christof skillfully snuck off from the group. The elven prince slipped through the shadows of the now bustling throne room. As he turned the corner he stripped away his disguise. "Now now, where would you be..." Christof silently hummed to himself. Using a rune to hide in the shadows, Christof snuck around the back of the throne room in silence. Moving a dangling curtain Christof slipped down a secret hallway. Christof's knights were doing their jobs of keeping everyone distracted.
"Of course, Lady Saya; you would receive first pick of our most expensive and rare wares" The Merchant leader smiled to Saya. The other four knights laid out various jewels, silks, weapons and various other items. "A Mourning Sapphire! Some of the best magical mediums for necromancy and even soul snatching~" The merchant leader mused with great theatrics. As the merchant group were keeping Saya and her court busy, Christof moved down the secret hallway. As he moved closed down the hall, an elven rune activated. Revealing various runes that coated the rest of the hallway. Christof grinned from this and walked faster. Turning down a small corridor, Christof came to an epitaph and a door. Christof's notorious devils grin spread across his face.
Reaching forward, Christof's hand gently touched the epitaph. "What is your secret word...." Christof hummed to himself as he sensed for the ancient rune to open the door. Closing his eyes focusing on his search. Feeling surge of ancient magic rushing through his body, The elven prince grinned. Just as he was grinning, the elf prince frowned and glared then. Realizing the origin of this word. "Hhandur" Christof mused quietly to the ancient rune. The ancient rune shined with dark magic. Unlocking the door to the elven stronghold he was searching for. As the door opened, the the entire castle shook violently. Not caring, Christof rushed inside the now open stronghold door. Christof needed to find it's ancient treasure grove. Find it's ancient rune. Much to Christof's suprise, he found something within this stronghold that filled his soul with rage.
The merchants looked around as the castle shook. "My queen, I was not aware Itomori stood on a fault line..I have just the ware for that!" The merchant leader said smiling as he nodded his head. One of the merchants ran to the carts and back. Holding a massive hammer in both of their hands. Getting help from the other merchants to carry it. "A Hammer of the fabled dune riders! A hammer filled with powerful earthen magic! It could easily help you tame these tremor and quakes! For a royal discounted price of course" The merchant leader smiled. The castle gave another heavy shake and quake. Causing everyone to stumble around. One of the merchants accidentally face planted into a pillar of the throne room. The merchant stumbled back holding their face. The merchant accidentally dropped their disguise spell. Revealing their elven knight armor. "s**t..." The Elven knight said as he and the others all looked to Queen Saya and her now glaring guards.

Saya scoffed at the idea of Elven merchants being in her castle, but they were rumored to have rare items related to necromancy so she allowed it this once. The queen admired the wares exhibited to her while Naoki stood beside her, staring with absent eyes at the closest merchant, letting out an occasional groan. The Mourning Sapphire was particularly intriguing to the necromancer queen, but she started to feel that something was off. She got the prickling sensation that someone was traipsing about where they shouldn't be. "I do not believe there is anything that interests--" Saya began before the first quake shook the castle, causing the queen to stumble and latch onto Naoki's arm. The zombie seemed shaken from her abyssal state, her ears swiveling rapidly as she searched for the danger to her queen. Her abyssal stare locked onto the merchant leader.
Saya remained holding onto Naoki as the castle shook once again. She didn't know what was going on, but she did notice that there was one fewer "merchants" than had entered her throne room. "Guards!" she commanded loudly over the commotion as one of the merchants was revealed to be an Elven Soldier. "Seize them! The pompous Elves have disregarded the peace treaty set in place by the Monarchs of Mobius and entered Royal Territory under false pretenses!" The surrounding guards rushed forward with weapons drawn to encircle the Elves. Two heavily built guards baring shields and javelins flanked the queen and Naoki, ready to strike down anyone who made a move against the Beast Queen.
Saya glared down the leader, raising herself up on her tail to tower over the elf with a dark aura rolling off her in waves. "Where is the last of your filthy, degenerant kind?"

Christof the elven prince stood in the heart of the stronghold. An old yet decaying beauty. The glyphs were looming with what magic they had left within them. Christof stood in the center of dead bodies. They looked demonic but not entirely. They looked as if they’ were beast like. The elf prince gripped his daggers tightly in his hands. ”These poor souls fell into darkness” Christof said as he looked back to the treasure grove. A demonic sword stood in its center. Radiating dark and malicious magic. Christof walked to the alter. Kneeling down and studying the rune he was here for. After a few moments the prince’s eyes flashed with magic. Standing back up he grabbed the demonic sword and turned to leave.
The Emerald Knights wielded their weapons as they were encircled. The group leader gave a heavy laugh. ”Well you see, we would rather not try explaining to a mindless beast such as yourself! Ghonuza Iflora!” the leader finished speaking in his elven language. The group scattered around then. Fighting the guards that rushed in after queen saya’s command. The group leader flung two daggers to the two guards behind Saya. As the daggers dug into their necks they dropped. ”We are the elite of the Emerald Knights, we won’t be killed so easily” The leader grinned as he twirled two daggers in his hands. The elven group was fighting long and hard. Two of the elf knights slid across the ground. Hopping back up and plunging their swords into a beast guards stomach. Another cleaving a beat guards head off.
The elven knights slid backwards as more and more beast guards filled the throne room. Well, this was harder than expected. The beasts are putting up a better fight than expected. One elf Knight was killed. Now only three remained. The leader huffed as his fight was Queen Saya was harder than expected. ”I must admit, for being the weakest monarch of Enoch, you sure do put up a good fight...” the leader said shrugging his shoulders. But why was it taking the prince so long? They severely underestimated the beasts. More and more beast soldiers filled the throne room.
Christof had to fight through more of these weird corrupted beasts. The prince sighed as he finally made his way back. But he was hiding in the shadows of the throne room. Watching as his knights bravely fought off the beast soldiers. Surprisingly holding their own against Queen Saya. Although her being the weakest monarch she still was a monarch for a reason. Christof hummed as he watched. Christof was preparing to join the fight. He for sure would be the one to end Queen Saya.

Saya hissed as the knights revealed themselves to be Elven Emerald Knights, who were lead by no other than the eldest Elven Prince, Christof. Having the Elites in her castle could only mean one thing. "Where is your Prince, Elven Scum? Your unwelcome presence violates much more than the peace treaty now," the Queen demanded as she went on the defensive from the leader. Simultaneously, a switch in the zombie seemed to flip, and she drew her twin axes from her sides. Her abyssal eyes stared down the leader as she swung for him in the name of her beloved. Saya had retreated a bit, fully aware of how much weaker she was physically. Her strengths lay in casting magic, particularly that of Necromancy. as most knew.
Noticing the fallen Elf, Saya quickly jumped at opportunity. "Marquil ine seste kuran," she began to chant as she focused on the lifeless corpse. Her Beastmen guards were holding up well against the Elites, but it was time to see if they could fight one of their own. The raised Elf took its place beside the Queen, brandishing its sword at its own. The Queen was now visibly showing signs of weakening, as her magic and concentration were now strained between Naoki and the Elf corpse. Nonetheless, the two zombies lunged for the leader of the Elite Emerald Knights at the same time with a level of precision only achievable by sharing a single mind.

Christof was not sitting on one of the chandeliers. Looking down as his elite knights battled for their lives. Beast after beast were falling to their blades. But sadly his knights started to weaken. It was taking two for them to kill one enemy. The leader of the platoon viciously held off the assaults of Naoki and the raised elven knight. How dare Queen Saya taint the soul of an elite emerald knight. The prince slowly crouched on the chandelier. Gripping his hand as he still held the demonic sword he retrieved.
The elven leader slid backwards. Twirling his blades he looked back up. Naoki and the raised knight were lunging for him again. The leader sighed as he knew he couldn’t hold them off any longer. But he wasn’t going to go down so easily. Slowly standing back up. He went to lung forward. Only to be pushed back by a hand. The sound of blades clashing caused him to look up. ”Tell me, Queen Saya. Is this the best your necromancy can do?” Prince Christof’s voice echoed throughout the throne room. The two knights ran to their leader, helping him to his feet. Christof repelled the two back and sighed in annoyance. ”stand back, heal your wounds. Once I’m done we leave immediately” Christof commanded his knights. The knights nodded their heads and slowly moved away. Rolling his shoulders Christof raised the demonic blade he found. ”You and your court....are my prey....hehehe” Christof said with a dark and vicious chuckle. The prince brandished the blade. As he did so, he activated his duplicating ability. Clones of Christof started to form all around the throne room.
One by one, Saya’s throne room guards were being slaughtered like cattle. Christof’s blood thirsty laughter filled the air as did the screams of the slain. Christof clashed blades with Naoki again. ”You poor thoughtless husk, allow me to free you from her grip” Christof said grinning then. The prince repelled Naoki backwards. Holding his hand up, runes illuminated all over his arm. ”Ghandr Ifzahr” Christof chanted. Naoki’s body erupted into what looked like white fire. Clear Christof used holy magic. Blitzing forward, Christof plunged his sword into Naoki’s stomach. Watching the reanimated husk Naoki stumbled backwards and onto the ground. Christof rolled his shoulders and raised his hand again. The throne room began to erupt into white flames as well. ”Queen Saya, it’s time. Time you left this realm. AND JOINED THE DEAD!” Christof grinned as he bolted forward. Rushing past Naoki and grabbing the sword out of her stomach. The elf prince charged the beast queen.
Christof’s laughter filled the throne room. The throne room was a massacre. Beast soldiers laid lifelessly as they began to burn up in the white holy fire. Christof was jumping around Saya. Chasing her around. Torturing her as he prolonged her death. ”And you’re a queen?! Yet you run from the face of death?! hahaha! Come! Allow me to end this all for you!” Christof laughed wickedly. Christof created clones of himself again. The four new clones ran circles around Saya. Slashing at her with their daggers. Punching and kicking her. The real Christof slowly walked forward to her. Following the taunting of his clones. The clones disappeared into tufts if sparkling smoke. Through the sparkling and shimmering smoke; Wielding the Demonic sword, Christof plunged it deeply into her death. ”You were never meant to be queen” Christof said to her as he kept the sword in her chest. The prince took a few steps backwards as the holy fire began to travel towards Saya. Threatening to fully engulf her.

Saya was sure she had the leader. Yet, someone still stopped the blades of Naoki's axes with a single hand. The Queen's rage flared. "You!" she cursed. "You finally show your face after the battle has already begun! What kind of leader does not charge with the troops he leads straight into the snake pit?" Naoki continued to fight the Prince, while Saya dropped control of the raised Elf. The strain was becoming too much with trying to evade and keep Naoki fighting as well. The Queen was beginning to despair. Her soldiers fell one by one at the hands of mere shadows. This was why she had been so adamant to never engage in fights with the other races. The power and seemingly infinite magick of the royals was terrifyingly superior to mere fur and muscle.
Saya wanted to retreat then, just take Naoki and flee. She didn't see herself winning against the Elven Prince, not after exhausting herself on the Elites. She turned for Naoki, ready to sacrifice a limb or two to grab the zombie and flee. Yet, the prince was faster. Saya stared in horror as the events played out before her in slow-motion. 'Naoki....Naoki....is...Naoki is dead?' Her vision began to blur. Her soldiers were dead, her castle was burning, and the one thing that brought her some shred of joy in this desolate world now lay amongst the white flame with a hole ripped through her stomach. As Saya's figurative world came crashing down, she weakened, succumbing to the endless beating of the Prince's shadows. She stared at the Prince, her glare of bravado overshadowed by fear and grief.
The final strike was definitive and painless, almost relief to the Beastman Queen. She died scared of what would become of her people, yet she knew where she would go. She would return to Naoki, who she had never really had the past quarter century. And despite her fear, she died with a smile on her lips that hadn't been seen in so long.

Christof watched as Saya fell to the ground. The elven prince simply glared at her dead body. The White holy flames began to make the throne room crumble. Debris falling from the ceiling and walls. The prince shook his head. The elite emeralds knights ran over to him. ”My Prince, we must leave before more show” The leader said. Christof nodded his head. Before leaving, Christof picked up the demonic sword again. Plunging back into Saya’s dead body. Footsteps could be heard. Christof clones reappeared from the shadows of the throne room. Carrying the dead bodies of the demonic beast like creatures. ”Lydia, died getting a message to us. Lydia died defending the beast queen. Queen Solaris and her demons attacked the castle. Sadly, we didn’t show in time. We only were able to defeat the queens demonic siege party” Christof said fabricating a story. The emerald knights all grinned and nodded their heads. ”Prince Christof bravely and righteously struck down the demons. Prince Christof fought the demon queen. Only for her to flee” The knight leader nodded his head with a smile. ”Come, my prince. Your holy magic slowly fades and we must be off” The leader said motioning for Christof to follow. One of the knights opened a gateway for them to get back to iilhi. Christof nodded and turned away from Queen Saya’s body. The four elves quickly running through the gateway. As they all entered, the gateway quickly closed shut. The Christof clones exploding and vanishing into tufts of shimmering smoke. Queen Saya was now dead. Whoever would find the throne room first would surely be in for a surprise.
