Story Synopsis
A lone request for help echos through space and time
For ever and ever and ever and ever...
It is Ruiz the Retributor who, in a last ditch attempt to alter the fate of mankind, has sent out this haunting plea. He has divined the terror awaiting mankind on Earths companion. He is labeled a fool by his peers. They laugh at his paintings of calamity, they taunt him for his warnings of the darkness awaiting the world of men, they know not that he speaks the truth in his prophecies...
From before the dawning of the age of man, on the cold, airless moon evil has lurked. He has many names, but he is truly Moonbeast. Banished to the Moon by the Celestial Serpents (aka The Goodness) he has watched, endlessly circling on Earth's silver companion. He gathers his strength, he bides his time, he must conquer the Earth and reclaim what is rightfully his. Moonbeast sees his chance
All around earth are Iron Leviathans, created by the Celestial Serpents in their own image to fight evil. Time is not linear, it bends and twists. Sent through a fold in space-time they arrive before the age of man. They tower many stories high. And they wait! The people of Earth worship the statues for their greatness. They know not where they come from, nor who hast built them, or for what purpose, They are marked by nearly indecipherable runes. The only clear writing says "Become us and be victorious." And thusly the story unfolds
And it came to pass that the moon felt ominous. "It is just as Ruiz the Retributor has foreseen!" sayeth the people. "The clouds will take the shape of skulls, the moon will rise by day soaked with blood. This marks the coming of the beast and the people begin to suspect that the ravings of Ruiz may be true after all. In anguish they turn to Ruiz and plead for his help "So now you believe me? Well, all righty then." Ruiz said. "Any-who... I have just the man. He is named Judas. But don’t worry, he can be trusted. And it came to pass that Judas set out to find The Goodness in the Garden af the Lost so they may strike down the Evil. And it came to pass that Ruiz the Retributor said to the people as they gathered "Now we must prepare ourselves, my brethren. In my paintings it is foretold what will come to pass. The Evil will soon be here and will raise the dead to battle our armies and it ain't gonna be pretty. The King must gather his men and our champion!"
And the people did rejoice, for the King was a great leader and the army made up of the most heroic. They knew the Champion would not fail them. Meanwhile, the Moonbeast watches. Though he has been struck dead by The Goodness, Evil is never truly gone. The Moonbeast has a dastardly plan. Unbeknownst to the men below, the very person they are counting on... Judas... will betray them. And it came to pass that Judas did his vile deed. Moonbeast rises! Ruiz the Retributor did further prophesies: "Hear ye, hear ye! I have foreseen a great weapon! It is a spear forged by a man of Caesar the blood of a martyr. It is in another place and time, yet we must find it! Only the most worthy of us all may wield it." The King's champion did find the ancient weapon. It’s so powerful the King's forces are multiplied tenfold
The vile treachery of Judas is revealed as the sound of thunder announces the coming of the Moonbeast. Then... a message from The Goodness! The people do not understand this is but a twist of time. It is a reply to Ruiz the Retributor sent aeons ago. But the King takes it as a good omen and rallies his men. The King warned the people to be brave and not be tempered by a false church, Church of Succubus. The priests (who are really demons) speak the lies of the Evil and feed on the weak. The battle commenced, leading straight to the mouth of Hell. "Steady, brace yourselves! Do not flinch!" the King yelled
Yet the tide turns as the Moonbeast arrives. As the battle raged the Champion climbed onto the shoulders of a Leviathan. With a mighty throw he cast the Spear. The Moonbeast is skewered and falls dead. In the victory celebration that follows no one notices the Moonbeast's essence leave the husk that was his body and enter the Leviathans, Judas knows. He skulks, watching the celebration next to the feet of the giants. Even as the robots feet stir and crush him, he rejoices his master's victory
And still a lone request for help echoes through space and time
For ever and ever pleading for The Goodness to strike down the Evil...
