The Chronicles of Dome-Wyrd: 0

Ghloth_AO: Entry #0

To whom the fate of a once prosperous land may concern.
Year: 1700, 
The end of the Third Age.

 What lies before you, is a universe, you have never known, I write to you, lucky mortal. You might even find yourself curious, alas my reader, I know you already have questions, I detect these things like bright balls of tiny light. 

It matters not, who I am, but what I am, although, I will share with you my name. Ghloth, The Astral Observer. As for what my dear human, that will come.. one day.

 The universe I speak of, it’s name, is Dome-Wyrd. All things beautiful come with a heavy-burden. While I could tell you of many things. For example, the great inferno that not only ended, but viciously incinerated the second age. 

 As i have learned from mortals such as, Manis Furin! The miniature-king-of-madness! A boy-of-a-king, but i digress, he was fierce, relentless, and a ravishingly good story-teller. 

And as he was a grand story-teller, he always knew great stories, always have gloriously promising beginnings. 

 even if a miasmic evil swallowed the dark existence of the first moments of creation, coloring the origin of reality. 

In a vile toxin that proved far, far too powerful for even The Gods. The things the mortals were led to worship, were even weaker than they were, throughout the endless horror of the Second Age.

The Chronicles of Domewyrd: 4

Chapter III: Manis's Escape. Once Manis began running, he didn’t look back. He sprinted faster and faster, kicking up dirt and sand behind him, heaving from being out of shape, but none of that mattered as he dove into the stretching sea.  He paddled one arm in front of the other, thrashing for air every twenty-seconds, kicking his legs like a spastic dolphin. All that mattered was his survival, and Manis still couldn’t stop laughing. Every breath he took, poking his head out of the water as his paddles were graced and surrounded by monstrous cackles that only seemed to escalate. After what seemed like hours of swimming Manis’s strokes and kicks, halted to a minimum, to conserve his dwindling energy. He can make out an island miles ahead of him, barely able to make out the landscape as it is encased in a dreary mist with towering trees peering down on the sandy beach. There was much Manis couldn’t see but he can most definitely see a shore in the distance. And so he picked up his k...

Chapter VI:  The Bubbling-Bogs. “So the Bubbling-Bogs eh?” Grimace called the swamps, the destinations the rumors have decidedly lead them to.  She came to a slow, tilting her body downwards as Manis hopped off. Springing his knees as dust puffed around him.  “I can take you as far as the path in the forest, just follow it, you won’t be able to miss the bogs. When you’re ready my dear, say my name! and you will find my shadow over you, no matter what I have to trample to get to you! Now! Run along, there’s a kingdom waiting for you!” She pauses with a bubbling cackle… “And Manis… lest you forget I’m always watching; They’ll never be able to stop you… just trust in me... trust in the darkness...follow it unto the sea of Oblivion…Follow destruction can only mean rebirth…” Her voice hums, vibrates, lulling Manis into a haze that paralyzes him and his visions begins to shake. Before Manis can readjust his vision, her ruby eyes glistening against the torches light, making them...

Chapter V The Ripper & The Slasher. As time passes, boys can only grow, and like their passions will flourish, so will their demons and vices. The dreadful beasts that we always manage to  find in the most cataclysmic of moments. Manis & Grimace wandered the lands for a years’ time, even in the late hours under the moonless sky. Grimace would never let Manis sleep, when they would happen to find themselves in a safe haven for the dark hours. Grimace only instigated Manis, pushing him further amidst the glow of a camp fire, further away from reality. Picking his buttons, teasing him for losing Jaykob to the demanding claws of death, only fueling the fire that was beginning to grow wild. Grief, without a father, is a tragedy all on its own, Day-by-terrible-haunting-day that passed caused Manis’s mind to break more-and-more.  The longer time went on the longer Manis was being driven absolutely mad. Irrefutably mad. Eventually, Manis rambled to himself, having bouts of hys...
