The Call for a Hero

Unfortunately for every evil creature that his armies slayed, Korr summoned 2 more to take its place. He was going to loose the battle eventually, at the cost of every one of his people.

....Nicodemus came to Parker's side with some positive news. He had been experimenting with a new substance he had found called Black Crystal. It seemed to have powers of time travel and he thought that perhaps they could use this crystal to open a portal to another world and send a message for help. Parker, usually cautious about trying new wacky ideas of Nicodemus was open to any chance of getting help and winning this war. So they went out to the courtyard of Parker's castle where Nicodemus placed the Black Crystal on the ground. He focused his powers on the crystal and a blue beam shot into the sky.

....After what seemed to be hours of waiting, the blue beam came down from the sky and formed a blue portal which are now known as "MysticalPortals". Out of the portal stepped a humanoid figure, tall and powerful. Parker approached the stranger introducing himself as Parker, ruler of Spilknor and Nicodemus, his faithful wizard. The stranger replied he was Rameus from Earth. They led the stranger back to Parker's castle where they were greeted by his wife, Beatrik. Nicodemus and Parker filled the stranger in on the state of Spilknor, who the enemy was, what he had done and formulated a plan of attack.

....Parker and Rameus formed a party consisting of some of the strongest most experienced fighters still alive. It consisted of Gork and wife Liz, Nigel and Nicodemus. This mighty party of 6 planned on confronting Korr in his castle of evil on Fire Isle. The trip to the island was rough but nothing the might 6 couldn't handle until they reached the island. Immediately they came face to face with the great Earth Snake summoned to guard Korr's castle. Nicodemus was prepared, using the Black Gem he was able to cast a containment spell to hold the giant snake for a few minutes. The Earth Snake was able to break free but by then the party had already made it across the molten lava and into the castle with the help of Nicodemus and his arsenal of spells.

....The 6 were attacked by many of Korr's minions lurking around in the castle. Rameous and Parker were able to break free while the other 4 stayed back to fight. Rameous and Parker headed up the winding stairs that led to the tower, this is where they expected to find Korr. They burst through the door to the tower room and were instantly bombarded with numerous magical attacks by the mighty wizard. Parker ran to one side of the room drawing Korr's fire while Rameous went around the other for an attack. The plan worked, Rameous ran behind Korr, sword held high for a strike when Korr turned around and dodged the downward slash of the blade. The blade missed Korr, but it did not miss the Gem of Immortality hanging around his neck, which fell to the floor breaking into 3 shards.

....The wizard hit Rameous with a powerful stun spell sending him flying into the surrounding wall where he hit hard and laid unconscious on the floor. Parker taking advantage of the wizards attention on Rameous slashes at the wizard but misses. Korr instantly casts a stun spell sending Parker stumbling back and casts a fireball spell creating a ring of fire around Parker trapping him. As Korr chuckles at how easily he had defeated these two challengers, Nicodemus walks through the door. The two mighty wizards exchange magical blows in a fury of destructive power. Rameous comes too and stands on his wobbling legs trying to focus on what's going on. Rameous is looking at Korr's back who is right in front of him exchanging magical blows with Nicodemus. He raises his sword and hits the base of Korr's neck with the handle of his sword. The wizard stumbles a little and turns as Nicodemus takes advantage of Korr's broken attention and hits Korr in the midsection with a fireball spell. Korr drops to his knees and in blind fury Rameous raises his sword and strikes straight down across Korr's neck and his head rolls to the floor. Rameous picks up the head and throws it out of the towers window where it lands in the molten lava of fire isle.

....The magical release of Korr's death was great. The Earth Serpent was released from its binds to this land and returned to the Ethereal Void and the fire around Parker disappeared. A red wind swept through the room picking up the 3 shards of the Gem of Immortality as well as the Codex. The shards were dropped to the lava of Fire Isle but it is unknown what happened to the codex. The great magical release also caused major geological upheaval. The continent shook for what seemed like endless amounts of time. When the land stopped shaking and the hero's looked out of the window of the upper chamber of the castle they couldn't believe what they saw. The land was 3/4 missing, everything they knew looked like it had disappeared.

....Eager to get back to what was left of their homes, Rameous gathered up the Book of Truth, Candle of Love and Bell of Courage, all that was left of Korr's power items and they headed back to the mainland. They didn't find much left that they remembered but they did see the minions of evil still remained. Rameous formed the order of the Dragons and built formed a training facility called Dragons Claw to train the remaining population of Spilknor for combating the remains of evil creatures polluting the land. It took what seemed like forever to scouts to find and tell all the survivors about the order and to train everyone as mighty fighters. The order marched to what is known today as the Ghostly Plains, killing everything in their path. They confronted the remaining evil on the Ghostly Plains in a great bloody good vs evil battle that would go down in history. Many many deaths happened that day but Rameous's Dragons were victorious and the evil had been eliminated.
