Man, been busy with loads of things.
Sixth Form Night, especially. Man, what a load of stuff to do!
But in the end, it's all worth the effort. =)

The Consuming Shadow
There is no telling what lies hidden in the depths of the cold Void. Perhaps an unknown entity calls it home, devouring the stars through black holes that murkily wander the Universe. Perhaps there exists a world inhabited by creatures who shun the dark. These are only old myths, passed down for generations by the millions of races that now fill the Universe. No one dares to uncover the real truth behind the veil of that shadowy realm. All that may change, though, with the reemergence of the Darksun. With the Multiverse now embroiled in a bitter war that threatens the fragile balance of existence, the Darksun may just tip the scales in Disorder's favour. And that would mean the end of all things...A little introduction to an all new series I'll be starting. Don't worry, as I will update on the previous story I have posted here on my blog.
Cheers for now!

Salvation
No, I'm not quoting that Terminator movie.
Salvation: what does it mean to all of you? Is it something that God will deliver unto His flock? Something only fellow humans can give each other? A blessing from nature? What is it?
Give me your feedback. There is so much we can learn from this.
Cheers!

Tomorrow Today
With the advent of new technologies in development and those already developed, one can only wonder if the future is close in our grasps. Me, I'd say it's coming pretty soon and pretty fast.
3D TVs, robotic assistants, first-generation holographs, electric cars, and so much more to come. And even some I may have missed out.
Surely, Mankind is getting close to building a new world? One based on the foundations of science? Perhaps it may help us prevent the continued decay of our home planet?
Who can say? The future is clouded and uncertain.

A reason for living.
A deeper meaning.
I want to stand with you on a mountain,
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...
Oh can't you see it baby?

Until the sky falls down on me...
And when the stars are shining brightly
In the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish
Send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry..
The tears of joy
For all the pleasure and the certainty.
That we're surrounded
By the comfort and protection of..
The highest power.
In lonely hours.
The tears devour you...
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever.

I Have An Idea!
A new short story will be up soon. Need to work on a draft first.
Hope you'll find it illuminating. Or... whatever. I don't know how you'll react to it.
Cheers!

Blogging Is Dying - Long Live Facebook!
The title says it all.
It's sad, really, to see blogs die out 'cause of FB. So many bloggers have flocked to the social networking site to fill their profiles with loads of spam - much like a blog, but simpler.
I guess it's because you don't have to cram your brain with so much crap and stuff to put up a post, unlike on FB where you can just type anything you want without a second thought. Well, most of the time.
Oh well, I'll make sure I stay true to my blog. =)
In spite of the fact I too have a FB account, I'll be updating my blog with whatever I think should be written.
Till my next post, cheers.

There Is Only Chaos
(continuing from Into Hell And Beyond)
"Come, you foolish mortals!" Daemon Lord Hazzrakiel bellowed mockingly, swiping its blade into the path of hapless Guardsmen, cutting them down and into pieces. "Your lives end here today, and I will bathe in your lifeblood!"
The Champion of Khorne let out a hellish warcry that killed several mortally wounded Guardsmen who were unfortuantely too close to it, before the daemon launched himself at a lumbering Vanquisher Leman Russ that was trying its best not to be targeted by it. With one smite from Hazzrakiel's massive battle axe, the tank was instantly crushed - its ammunition detonating a split second after the axe hit home.
Several feet behind him, the sorceror Rakarian solemnly watched the bloodbath ensue. As much as he disliked the fact he had to take orders from the Daemon Lord, he knew had to. His master - the Lord Of Change - had plans in motion that involved this planet and all those who were to come here. If this was part of the plan, then so be it. But Rakarian did wish he could do more than what he was tasked with.
Without even turning, Rakarian hurled several bolts of unholy fire in the direction of a squad of Guardsmen, hidden behind an overturned Chimera - yet another victim of Hazzrakiel's fury. They screamed in agony as they were instantly engulfed in a blaze of warp fire, turned into nothing but ash. Hazzrakiel turned to look, and saw the charred remains of the unfortunate Guardsmen.
"They couldn't have harmed me, sorceror," it hissed at Rakarian, a tinge of distaste in his voice. "You waste your energy to slay them."
"It would be an insult for them to hide from your glorious wrath, Great One," Rakarian replied, lying as best as he could. "Know that I have killed them for you, and their death cries to sate your thirst for blood and war."
Hazzrakiel glared hard at the sorceror before he grunted in acknowledgement.
"A fitting death for cowards," it finally said, turning his attention back at the other Guardsmen now running away from him. "But no more of that! All of them will taste my steel and perish!"
Rakarian sighed as Hazzrakiel strode away, out for more blood that can never sate his thirst. All of Khorne's instruments are just like him - nothing but fools who yearn for constant bloodshed, with no idea what was in store for their fates. And they don't care - so long as they die in the heat of battle, surrounded by thousands of corpse slain at their hand, they believe Khorne will smile upon their victory.
But Khorne's soldiers still need a war to call theirs. A war may start with violence, but it takes more than madness to start one and keep it going. The whispers of Tzeentch have the capability to begin a conflict of epic proportions - all that was needed was the right situation. Like this planet Rakarian was now on.
Indeed, there had been strains between the ruling Houses that presided over the planet's government. All the internal politicking had prevented a war from breaking out many years ago, but still the hostilities remained - hidden in the dark corners of the people's minds. All Rakarian had to do was unravel this, and implant Tzeentch's dark knowledge and truths into their heads.
From then on, it was only a matter of weeks before a majority of the Houses and the populace rose up against the ruling caste - all in the name of Chaos, of course. Only then did the minions of the Blood God unleash their fury upon the mortals.
Rakarian was proud of his achievements here. It was very easy to entice the Houses to come into Chaos' embrace, and talking the people into worshiping the Ruinous Powers needed only a little encouragement in the right words. Now that all those plans have come to fruition, he felt like he had no more purpose here. But that is only according to him.
What else lies ins store, only his master knows. For now, however...
Rakarian sighed again. He turned to face his Chosen Champions, signalling them to press onwards. The three Thousand Sons veterans silently followed him as he walked in the direction of the daemon's bloodshedding, staff held firmly.
In times like these, there is only chaos. Nothing more.

StarCraft II Beta: An Amateur's Game
I played the Beta through a cracked version, so whatever. Here I have some pics of me playing Protoss versus AI Zerg in the map Twilight Fortress. It's mostly a random mish mash, but it's in order. Enjoy. XD
More pics coming soon.
 |
| At the beginning, this was the start of my Protoss army. Yeah, it's small. But wait till it grows in size. XD |
 |
| This is much much later. The Zerg are trying to stomp me with loads of Hydralisks, Roaches and a couple of Ultralisks to boot. Me, I've got some Zealots ( I think) backed up by many Stalkers and two Immortals. Oh, and Sentries. Must have Sentries. |
 |
| Still thrashing the Zerg offensive. |
 |
| Chased those bastards all the way to the middle! Take that! |
 |
| Another Ultralisk smashed. |
 |
| Much MUCH later, I've got my Mothership up and running, and have taken the fight to the Zerg - FINALLY! With Carriers to boot, too! |
 |
| Victory is close at hand. XD |
 |
| The final moments of the Zerg's existence. Purge them, brothers! |
