Perfect World: Gauntlet of the Soulless

I.Story

There was an uneasy wind blowing in Pan Gu. The Wingkind soar through the skies as if to observe those below. The Beastkind proud and noble tend to their rituals and weapons, and the usual denizens of Dragon city go about their normal routine.

It was an uneasy period. It was probably because amidst all these notions of “peace” there is something going on…something monumental.

Town messengers cry the same messages throughout the land: “Our general has returned! Wan Luan is safe

The news wasn’t as morale boosting as it was intended to be. Even Wan Luan knew this. He could still remember the voice of the shining figure that abducted him echoing in the halls of his home:

“These people are mere sheep, easily thrown into chaos when you eliminate the shepherd!” Sam Hok uttered to him perhaps as an insult.

“He was right….” Wan Luan said. “But still…I have to see this through…”

Wan Luan, still wounded from his abduction sat at his villa’s terrace, contemplating his recent failures, restless and anxious. He knew that he still had something to do. All of his experiences as a general were telling him to take action. He knew in his mind that something is going horribly wrong, and in his absence, the people had unknowingly stood by without noticing it.

The silence of the terrace was broken when 3 guards rushed to Wan Luan. They were carrying a wounded messenger. Bloodied and beaten within an inch of his life.

“General! Forgive our intrusion but this man….!” The guard spoke.

“Slowly soldier….breathe…now what happened here?” Wan Luan calmly ordered.

The wounded man barely had voice, but the words were clear. Wan Luan stood in disbelief. It is as if the entire world’s grand design was revealed to him.

Suddenly, the events that happened started to make sense.

“The Soulless…our territories….all of it…gone... the Soulless are coming…”

On the other side of Pan Gu, two figures hover ominously atop a mountain peak. Their eyes shining and staring off in space, but at the same time it is as if they are “watching” something taking place.

“You did that on purpose didn’t you? How cruel…..” one of the figures spoke. It was none other the omnipotent Lady FelMaiden.

“Cruel? It would’ve been more cruel if no one told him don’t you agree?” The other figure spoke. It was Sam Hok, the one responsible for Wan Luan’s capture.

“But still…having a wounded soldier tell him those cryptic words? That’s classic…a bit unnecessary, but classic nonetheless.” FelMaiden spoke sarcastically to Sam Hok.

“Well. “He” started it.” Sam Hok answered. “He was but only rescued and already he goes about announcing a declaration of war? How impudent! ”

“Persistent is the correct term I believe.” FelMaiden replied. “He’s a fascinating man; he still thinks he has the will to choose his own path, and that others should follow his vision for them to succeed. We could still use him for our purposes.”

“What do you propose we do then my lady?” Sam Hok asked.

“Nothing spectacular, all the clans are in disarray since the Soulless now control all the territories.” FelMaiden said. “These people are still waiting for us to guide them out of their misery, so I guess it’s time we did so don’t you agree?”

“Certainly my lady” Sam Hok replied. A flash of light followed and FelMaiden was gone. Sam Hok stood alone smiling; suddenly there was an aura of light surrounding his body.

“The fate of Pan Gu should not rest solely on one man’s vision” Sam Hok thought. “I hope you understand that one day Wan Luan.”

“The Soulless are coming….yes indeed.” Sam Hok said. He jumped from atop the mountain and came crashing to the ground. As he stood up, legions of Soulless began to materialize around him. He raised his hand and he pointed to the horizon. The legions of the Soulless followed his hand.

“If these people truly are fated to glory then first we must forge their will and strengthen their souls. Only then will they be worthy to choose a path of their own.”

With that, the monsters roared. Driven by bloodlust they started rampaging, destroying everything that stood in their way. The Gauntlet of the Soulless has begun.

Back at the camps, Wan Luan’s war council was filled with numerous skirmishes with the Soulless but to his surprise, the morale of the people was high, one could actually go so far as to say that the clans “cooperating” with each other with no one actually in command.

“A flock of sheep without the shepherd…so that’s what he meant by it.” Wan Luan said. Finally he realized the message that Sam Hok was trying to convey.

As he drew his sword, preparing for battle, Wan Luan looked at the last remaining troops of the Jade Army.

“All right Sam Hok, let’s see where this goes…”
