Tarina Ezrael Curzesta Turun Gomorra -kampanjan ajalta. Pahoittelen, että on englanniksi.
The flames of funeral pyres seemed to lick the skies. The Night Lords had ravaged the nearby settlements and herded the scared Gomorrians here. The company’s sorcerers had sacrificed them all. Men, women and children alike were put under the blade. The corpses formed mountains that could be seen miles away. Ezrael watched all this from the peak of the tallest carcass mound. He could feel the daemon swirl inside his head. He looked the artifact in his hand. “Through this stone I enslave thee forever, child of warp” he hissed triumphant. He could almost feel the warp energy around him.
Suddenly, with a loud crack, a great rift opened in the sky. Red lightning bolts stroke at the peaks of the mountains of the dead. The greatest lighting bolt stroke Ezrael with a loud boom. Ezrael spoke the words of binding. The daemon inside his head screamed in agony as the spell was completed. The Bloodgem started to glow brightly as the essence of daemon was forced to take residence inside it. Ezrael raised the stone high above his head and howled arcane words of power. He thrusted the artifact through his chest and raised his hands once more. Bloodgem buried itself inside, taking residence where his heart had lied.
Ezrael could feel his hearts diminish. They stopped to beat. He felt no blood flowing inside his veins. Ezrael’s vision blurred, he felt like he was dying. He thought that he was falling. First time in his life he felt helpless. Suddenly, his sight returned. He could see more clearly than ever. He saw the mountains of dead bodies, his battlebrothers and in the distance he could see giantic figures looming over the horizon. Their shadows covered the whole landscape in unnatural darkness. Ezrael knew that he had walked through the door to the otherside. Into the immaterium. Daemons swirled and bowed him all around.
And then the warp was inside him. In his veins. The Bloodgem radiated raw warp energy through them. He could feel the power beyond power. His features grew, his eyes lashed out bright flames. He raised his voice. “Brothers!” His voice was booming and deafening. “What we have accomplished so far has been nothing compared to what is yet to come. For Hell on earth has come to Gomorra Prime!” The Night Lords held their weapons high and howled out battlecries. Ezrael watched them, pleased, as their howls turned to monotonic chant of “Warmaster! Warmaster! Warmaster!”
