[QUOTE="Kaodi, post: 3613443, member: 1231"] [COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][I]Did you think to announce yourself to me before spinning fire upon my body? I could have denied your creation of the stars and world, but I had the grace not to be so petty. And yet, when I take this one thing from you, you accuse me of being the transgressor? I, that allowed my perfection to be marred by your creations? The wyrm is mine, Empyrean. You are right, that I would not have her had you not created her, but you would not have anywhere to create her were I so selfish as you. I have demanded from you a small portion of your creation, and of yourself, just as I give to you a small piece of myself in which to play. Do not think for an instant that the presence of stars and light to me is not the same as the dragon devouring one of your avatars. I am dimished by your actions, and now you are diminished by mine. Do you not see that your light again falls upon the face of the world, through my action? I could do the same to all that you have created, but I do not. I do not wish you to beg and grovel for the continued existence of your playground, and I will not apologize for claiming a piece of it for my own. You do not appreciate what can be done with space and place, you do not conceive of it. You do have a choice, though. In time, you will be thankful for what I can do. But do not try to take from me what I have claimed as my own, or I swear you will suffer, and you will never be able to realize the full potential of what you can do. If the death of your stars bothers you, then create a hundred more, and I will place them among the others you have already made. Your power and substance, like mine, is of infinite nature. Malchygara could devour every star you have made, and yet you could make as many to the hundredth power, and more. As you gave her life, she yet requires a part of you to sustain her strength. To the little creatures of the world, it seems a great part, but to us its amount is ultimately only a tiny amount. Your fire will keep her strong for a very long time, but it is I that gave her the power to thrive in the dark places, in stretches of nothing so vast that no other creature could even live long enough or move quickly enough to traverse.
