The Dark Codex

Ryan

Volume One - Exodus

Merlin of old looked at the Codex. The Codex for many years was studied and forgotten had one last prophecy the ancient wizard could now read it read;

The Lord of Mordor watches for the time to strike,

To kill and destroy a realm.

The time for a dark age is upon us all.

The Daughters of the Founder Queen all, but will one is destined to die.

A river of blood and pain, that is the curse of Mordor.

The price in blood to keep the Lord of Mordor from the One Ring.

The Ring of Darkness, the one that can rule all.

Yet the Amazons and Bacchae resist the power of the Dark Lord of Mordor

Written on the sword of Queen is the words 

''No ring may rule my mistress, now or forever!'

I daughter Rachel, daughter of Oracle, have written what the fevered Amazon Queen, as spoken of, for the last six weeks.

I can payer only that the visions can be broken, or many will die.

My own visions, say the girl child will have the strength of something called Numenor. I know not what that means. I know it will not be in this reality were the final conflict will take place.

The old book turned to dust. The last prophecy read its task complete.

"So it begins." Merlin vanished ever to be seen again in that reality.

Angelus, once known as Angel son of Willow and Angelus. Held a small bundle in his arms. "Lord Angelus, we must find the Queen." A member of the royal guard called out.

"She's here Sarah." Angelus spoke. The Amazon warrior looked at the bundle.

"That's the princess Hermione." The Amazon gasped. "Then . . ."

"Gone." He looked at his sleeping niece.
