Excerpt from mah story...

So... Yeah. I like to write stories in my free time, when I'm not reading or drawing... :) This is a little teaser from my story "The Fallen Tyrant". I actually haven't been working on it for a while, and the writing probably isn't the best, but... here it is. Hope ya like it. :)


The Fallen Tyrant was ruler of the entire land of Dakkor. He was more commonly known by his self-proclaimed title, "Thantor Manmuten", which, in his language, meant "Magnificent Ruler". Many simply called him "The Thantor".

He ruled, ageless, protecting his lands from the devilish beasts and evil creatures lurking beyond the boundaries of his world. He created schools and educated the children of Dakkor. He made peace among the warring cities. He was practically a god.

So why did the Alliance hate him? Why did they work against him?

The revolutionaries hated him because of his "protection". No one had every seen beyond the boundaries of Dakkor; no one had ever seen the supposed "evil beasts".

They hated him because of his eductation. It numbed the children's minds, indoctrinating them to believe that he, Thantor Manmuten was geat, good, and all-powerful.

They hated him because he forced peace, sending in soldiers to lay siege to warring cities, to murder, plunder, and frighten the innocent until the citites gave up on war.

They hated him because he did not listen. They hated him because of the Skanti. They hated how cruel he was. But most, oh, most of all, they hated that he deemed himself to be their god.

"Magnificent Ruler" he called himself. HAH! He was not magnificent. He was not their god. He had fallen from their graces, that tyrant. He had fallen, and he needed to be gotten rid of...
