*Enter High Ruler Syrus and Iten* Iten - "High Ruler Syrus, it's come to my understanding that you plan on sending General Rutis Papenitus and General Ferque to the cities of Okuul and Version in an attempt to to expel the Jarin from the city." Syrus - "Yes, indeed I am. Do you wish to ask something of it, Iten?" Iten - "Why are you taking so many Jarin cities, Sir Royal? Do you not own enough already? They only have three cities left in their possession, and they are a big part of our economy. If the Jarin fall, we'll eventually come to an inevitable fall as well. Not to mention there are Hebrov living in those cities. If we engage in battle with them, their entire race will come at us with everything they've got. We won't stand a chance." Syrus - "The treaty means nothing to me anymore. If me and my army are the only magic-wielding men on the continent, we'll be unstoppable. The Menarin's will be the most powerful and influential force in all of Basin and Cretia. Falls will soon follow, but the Celestians can be quite difficult to "persuade". You see, Iten, the reason I have such a prejudice against many people having magical abilities, is that if it falls into the wrong hands, there could be total destruction. Magic has already led to five Movements, and more are likely to follow if we do not keep it under supreme control. I will cleanse this world of its impurity. And in it's rebirth, I will be the ultimate ruler of it all. Iten - "But isn't that what you're doing right now, Sir Royal? Creating a Movement caused by magic to try and prevent people from using magic?" Syrus - "Right now, Iten, you are questioning my motives, and in the event that you weren't one of my advisors, your head would be rolling for such talk. What I'm doing to cleanse the world has a purpose. Even if it involves me using magic. It has a purpose. I highly suggest you correct yourself, and go check on General Ferque and General Rutis to see if they're ready for their assault before I lose my nerve. Don't allow such words to slip from your mouth again." Iten - "Yes, High Ruler Syrus. It will be done." *Exit Iten and enter General K and Miss Madresi* Miss Madresi - "Are the invading parties almost ready, Sir?" Syrus - "Yes, they are finishing their final preparations as we speak." General K - "Yet another glorious novel to go down in history, where we are it's authors. If I may ask, Sir, why are you not attempting to take their city of Anthem as well? Wouldn't it be better to just knock them out completely in one Movement, rather than take it after Okuul and Version?" "I have a special plan for Anthem, K. You need not worry about it for the moment. Right now, I need both you and Miss Madresi to prepare for the arrival of Causher. He will sense that a magic uprising is occurring and will surely rise to strike is down. The thing is, once he falls for the bait that you two will create, he will be the one getting struck down." *All three begin chuckling and the two Generals exit* Syrus - *Looking at a representation of God* "I will soon be coming for you, Vanta. I will strike you down, and take your place as the new God. This world, and your world will be mine. And you're hopeless to stop me. [i]Prepare for the Ninth Movement[/i]
