Whose child are you? Which immortal’s blood do you have in your veins?
Oh, I know what you are. Though I am more and more certain that you do not. Thank you for returning this to me.
Mwa-hah-ha! No one alive can release him. He is bound by the blood of the Deathless, sealed by the abominations of his own make and safeguarded by Sentinels of the ruling four.
I’m alive again. Hell take me… I’m one of them, aren’t I?
It was once the home of the most vile evil ever to befall this world. He’s been gone for ages… slain by Raidriar on the plains of Koroth. Many Devoted believe him truly dead – yet here I study, ponder, and… question. The seal must never be broken, for he cannot be allowed to return. Poor little man. You are a fraud, and likely a pawn. I spill your blood with regret.
This can not be... Ausar...?
This world was broken.
Screaming for salvation.
Into fire and blood and treachery, you were born...
My majestic blade!
Immortal. Invincible. The Deathless came.
Caressed the throats of weak humanity.
To kill the immortal is impossible, they said.
But I, The Worker of Secrets, embraced a Deathless warlord...
And forged you!
A weapon to slay the un-slayable!
The warlord betrayed us! Stole you from me!
I was entombed! Deep in his Vault of Tears!
He was Ausar the Vile...
Consumed by your infinite light, you burnt his very soul!
Both of you, lifeless.
Tearing you from Ausar's corpse, the God King whispered...
"Sacrifice."
And death had its day after day.
A ritual slaughter... fathers and avenging sons... All doomed.
Until at last... a warrior came with a true and noble heart.
He'd slay the mighty God King...
Anoint you with immortal blood...
And so unleash your glory!
The warrior was Siris.
He unknowingly gave you life...
And foolishly gave us freedom.
I am Father of the Deathless!
Creator and Destroyer of all!
And Siris is our enemy... he is Ausar reborn!
Now, my secret vengeance...
The world shall know your name!!!
You have begun something that you cannot finish, Ausar.... This place will come crashing down… before you can unlock them all. And the Worker… will die with it!
