The Beast - The Conqueror
Story:
After so much time no one dared to speak his name any longer, it became an omen of destruction, it left a foreboding taste in the air, a tension that frightened even the bravest of men. Instead he was whispered of as the Conqueror. When he saw something he took it, and left the rest to the wind, destroying what he pleased, taking what he wished, and leaving the ashes behind.
As he led his army into the Kingdom known to house the most beautiful rose in all the land, so beautiful that the King placed it in a sphere of flawless glass and laid it to rest on a pillow of the most expensive satin.
He took the rose without a second thought and everything else that caught his fancy, heedless of those he was harming by doing so. Late that night he stared upon the rose, and as he was eclipsed in its beauty he felt nothing but rage.
In his anger he shattered the glass and reached to crush the rose, to destroy the perfection it lauded. As he did a thorn pricked into his palm and he was transformed into a beast. To be hunted by men that wished to obtain a conquest...Current WIP : Always open for critiques!
