Phage stumbled along the rocky path that lead to the peak of a rather large mountain in the Daggerpeak Hills. His eyes seemed glazed over and there was a dark look peaking over the edge of his pupils. He reached the top and set his staff down and got into a meditative position. His eyes closed and his breathing calmed as he slipped into a deep meditative state.
"I cannot let you free you know it...you've caused too much damage in the past and I can't allow you to do it anymore," Phage said his voice calm but determined.
Phage's voice changed to a very cold and deadly tone and his face was etched with harsh lines, "You need more than you know fool...I am you I am your core whether you accept it or not. I am our true self and I will be free, sooner or later you'll let your guard down and I'll escape. You can't keep me chained away forever.
Phage's voice changed back to it's normal tone, but a tear slid from the edge of his closed eye, "You are our true self but that does not mean you are the right self...I am the one who must exist your existence has outlived it's usefulness to the world and now I am the one who must carry our burden..." he said, his voice sad and weary.
Phage's other self laughed harshly, "You?! You are far too weak to carry our burden besides you won't even use the power for its purpose," he spat with anger, "I will make us so powerful that not even Vetis could stand against us....we could rule Zhon but no you would rather banish the power so it cannot be used," the other self said, it's voice cold and malicious.
"The power must be banished...it's far too powerful for even us. You only see the short range goal of our domination of Zhon, the power will consume us...you would end a slave to your own power. The power is controlled by a power greater than the Four Rulers...greater than the power that created the Four Blades. It must be banished, I will not allow our power to be controlled by a malignet power like that, for the good of the world..." he said, his eyes fluttering open. "Well I guess that put you in your place..." he said with a small grin, "for now at least..." he said, darkly as he started to stand, grabbing for his staff.

"Hello?" cried Sol over the Mountains. He swore he heard a voice somewhere. There had to be someone else here somewhere...

Phage looked around as he heard a voice, "Ah yes I am over...agh!!" he cried out dropping to his knees and grabbing for his head.
His staff clattered loudly to the rocky ground and he raked at his temples, "No!! You cannot be released," he cried out , tears flowing visibly from his eyes. "I WILL NOT RELEASE YOU DAMNED ONE!!!" Phage's voice grew in volume but attained a strange and frightening etheral tone.
Phage's body fell to the ground limply and it appeared as if he was dead. There was a slight blackish purple glow around his body and he lifted off the ground as if he were a puppet on strings. His arms and legs shot out suddenly and shadow energy flowed from his eyes and mouth. He landed to the ground, his head down as if he were unconcious on his feet. Suddenly his head lifted and a cold, evil smile creeped across his lips. His eyes crackled slightly with shadow energy.
"You knew when you gave a little freedom to communicate with you I would take advantage of it, you weak and foolish fool. Now I control this body...and you, you are the prisoner now." He said, laughing chillingly.

Phage now evil again walked over the crest of the peak, his hands crackling with renewed shadow energy. He lifted his hood slowly as it eclipsed his face in darkness, showing only the evil and malice that gleamed in his eyes.
"And who might you be stranger?" he asked, grinning with cold malice as he looked down at Sol.

Suddenly from the sky was filled with insects as the sky darkened under their swarms. Suddenl;y a dark figure walked in the center of the swarm, he wore a blood red cloak and his face was hidden by the hair that was covering his face. The figure then stopped and looked the Phage, his blood red eyes galring at him. "Hello Phage...been a while" Auroth said in a dakr voice as he looked at him.

Phage laughed in strange and cold manner, "Ah yes the insect-wielding mind mage...Auroth correct? It seems that I thought you were quite the skilled mage, though apparently I never saw your use of your powers..." he said, smilingly coldly.
Phage shifted his weight slightly, turning to face Auroth full on. His eyes were the only thing that could be seen from his hood, those cold, death worshipping eyes that seemed to almost drip with malice. "So what exactly are you doing around these parts, Auroth.." Phage asked, a wicked smile creeping along his lips.

"Oh you know, i need to sharpen my skills...and get some more insects to join my body" Auroth said darky, just then, a few flies flew from out of his right cheek to join the vast swarm above. Auroth looked up at those flies, then looked down upon Phage.
"But tell me....what are you doing here? You seem, a bit different, trust me on that" Auroth said with a dark smile, as he had some what leaped into Phages mind adn could sense the emotion he was feeling.

Phage's eyes narrowed, "Out of my mind, mage...I am different...this is my true self. That weakling that you met before he insults us. We are far more powerful than he lets on...I am our true self. I am, was the feared prodigy of the Ebon Wraiths of Zhon. Thanks to my other self I was banished, but I intend to retake my place in Zhon. I suggest you not try that little mind reading trick again, I may not be a mind mage but I can at least feel when someone is probing my thoughts." he said, looking at Auroth with dark, spite-filled eyes.

"Indeed...that was merely a test of your mental aptitude" Auroth said with a dark smile. "Ofcourse, mind conquers all, i can sense, i repeat SENSE, your hostility from this far away, adn your blood lust is off the scales....but i suppose one from Zhon would be no exception..." Auroth said with anotehr dark smile. He then called forth a swarm to start to buzz around him. "So tell me...what do you plan to do now, oh knight of Zhon."

Phage smiled his teeth seemed almost sharp as his bloodlust began to seep through, "I plan to kill that damned fool Vetis for even thinking of trying to banish or execute me. However how I plan to accomplish that is my own little secret. Don't even bother trying to gleen that from my thoughts, I have been taught many different ways to shield my thoughts. Because mine is a great fate, few know of it and even fewer deserve to know. You don't intend to stand in my way do you Bug warrior?" he asked, clenching his fist as shadow energy arced and crackled over them, his smile turning to a crazed grin.

"Hmm...you underestimate the power of Mental mages" Auroth said with a cold smile "The only defense against us is your inteliigence when we try to attack your mind....but from what i saw of you the otehr days, i really doubt if you have what i takes to deflect me...but whatever, do as you wish to Vetis, all i want to do is watch your defeat". Auroth then smiled evily as he stood there, the insects hovering all over his body.

Ken walked to the top of the mountain listening closely for more voices.

Phage shook his head, chucking coldly, "You think you know it all don't you...unfortunately you know nothing. I have locked away in me a power untold in any age, a power with which I could enslave gods and men alike. All I need is the means to unlock that power and I will have my revenge and the power that I crave. I think you are the one who underestimates the power of a skilled shadow mage. But I will not eliminate you for now, unless you seek out a fight against me...for now you are spared for I have other matters to attend to," he said, the wind blowing up dark storm clouds in the background giving the scene an ominous look.

"Hmm..you overestimate yourself Phage..." Auroth said with a dakr smiloe 'I can sense it now, a vast power inside yourself, but that can only come with experiece, not anythign else" He then started to float up adn began to move in the opposite direction he came from. "If you please, i have matters to attend to also, Dark warrior" Auroth said with a smile.
