Chapter 12: Rising from the Ashes

Leithia sent forth her combined armies with 1 singular purpose; destroy all who would oppose her. The Atlantean Empire crumbled before her might and smoke consumed the skies for days and the screams of her victims eventually died out. For a time there was a calm, as her armies celebrated their victory. The vengeful queen plotted her next move, her paranoia infected her mind like a disease. The Atlantean Empire was only the beginning, soon any who opposed her rule was put to the blade.

Leithia along with Vex travelled north to where Conobar hid and Tobin had escaped with his most trusted guards. The harsh land proved extremely difficult to navigate but Tobin pushed on fearing Leithia's wrath, his efforts ended in vain when Vex finally tracked him down. He and his guards were no match to her sorcery, their screams filled the air as she executed them with all her hatred. No bards would sing of Conobar's demise, he was rendered helpless as Vex drove her blade through his heart in his secret lair.

As a final act of vengence, Leithia summoned her god Mitra to destroy every last trace of the lair. The summoned Mitra looked upon them with great pity and refused to move to Leithia's will, invoking her wrath. As powerful as she was, Mitra stood absolute. His voice bellowed "JUSTICE" as he channeled a powerful spell that destroyed everything from the frozen north to the southern oasis. The land would once again know purity and rise from the ashes once more.
