Salvation Chronicles: In the Beginning

language ( Nov. 30, 2014)
Salvation Chronicles - In The Beginning is the start of a series of short stories that is filled with Love, War, Betrayal, Gods, Demons, Magic, Starships and Dragons. As the title suggests it lays out the beginnings of a war which began long before mankind could remember between two advanced races. The first of the races was the Demons of Duat. The second was the Guardians of Avalon. For the next two thousand years these races warred between one another led by their great Immortal leaders. Standing for the Guardians was Tethra. For the Demon legions though was the great Demon Lord Blackfire. To end the war Tethra gave his soul in a desperate last act and the Demon leader Blackfire was imprisoned in the Black Hole Tartarus with his armies to spend the rest of his days in the madness of his own demise. Three and a half thousand years later Tartarus is opened by a force of Demons who quickly get to work with restoring the war that once stood with the Guardians by attacking Earth. As a portion of the Guardian forces resided upon the planet along with the Lost Immortal it would make sense only to destroy them. After a failed attempt to wipe out both Human and Guardian leadership on the Planet becomes apparent, Immortal Michael Saint begins to form his commanders and prepares to fight a war larger than any that had been fought in the last three thousand years. Standing with him includes his most loyalist friends and young Guardian Warriors K-Bell and Jason Parker, his lover Julianna and Veterans of the last war Gabriel, Constantine and the Lion Brothers Peter and Thomas. Between them they carry the strength of the Guardians in its entirety and with swords, magic, bullets and pure brute force they strike down Demons in defence of Earth and in the name of sacred Avalon.
As the blood of Humanity, Guardians and Demons is spread across the Earth; Blackfire with his most trusted Summoner, Nyx return home to Duat to find much has changed. Nyx soon explains the destruction which had befallen his world after his imprisonment and soon Blackfire learns that he has more to fear than another Immortal upon meeting the Wraithmaster Mortis. As Blackfire soon finds himself at the mercy of the mysterious Wraiths he soon realizes that for now their goals were aligned. Whilst reluctant to be the puppet as opposed to being the puppet master Blackfire agrees to assist the Wraiths in destroying Michael Saint. To enable his plan Blackfire orders Interron the Great Betrayer to begin the war. The real question all are asking themselves though is what side will Interron be on when the war comes. Interron's past creates great conflict within him and those around him. As Interron's time to decide comes smaller and smaller it becomes apparent that not all is as it seems.
