The pharaoh and his servants were renowned for their powerful summoning magic. The secret resided inside mystical items that could control these beasts of darkness, sealed into massive stone tablets. These beasts were actually the materialization of a person’s evil locked deep into their heart.On one night, a thief broke into the elder’s tomb to steal its treasure and then broke into the throne room, pulling and pushing the disrupted pharaoh tomb up to the new pharaoh throne. In response to this disgraceful act, the servants summoned monsters in order to fight the thief, but the thief had learn how to summon such creatures, surprising the court and taking the upper hand in the battle. The pharaoh then stepped in and summoned a creature with god-like powers and repelled back the thief.One of the pharaoh’s servants was Mahad, a childhood friend of the pharaoh. Devout and determined to bring this thief to justice, he settled an ambush inside a catacomb in order to lure the thief in and trap him inside. The thief arrived at the catacomb with a lust for treasure, but found only Mahad. The servant blocked the entry the catacomb and challenged the thief to a duel, and making the winner the only survivor of the match. Both summoned their beasts, a snake demon and an armored mage, and battled fiercely, but the thief had the upper hand and took Mahad down to his knees.In a last ditched effort, Mahad stood up and activated his summoning tool to merge with his mage and launched a final assault, so hard that it caused a cave-in, destroying the catacomb and the demon. Unfortunately, the thief had been able to escape the cave-in, and in the sunrise, he laughed at his victory and clenched Mahad’s summoning tool in his hand.Mahad, however, became one of the summoned beasts of darkness when he merged with his mage, so when the cave-in occurred, he was pulled back into the stone tablet. While he was still alive as a summoned beast, he was not dead either and his soul could not pass to the other world. Mahad’s spirit now awaits his command as a vestige, dedicated to his lord.Manifestation: The seal starts to glow with a bright yellow light and the middle of the seal become vaporous.
