Prologue

(UNKNOWN)'S POV

Darkness...

The eternal abyss...

The chains that bound me to the Netherrealm all those years ago remain tight around my paws.

How long...how long has it been since I've seen the light? No...I hate the light. It is a sign of weakness. The sign of peace and good in the galaxy. That is not what my heart truly desires. It is eternal darkness that I only seek.

Now the memories slowly come flooding back to me. Memories from when I once had a soul. Memories of building a peaceful civilization with my people's neighbors, the Erinis. Memories of the crystal caverns...the corruption of my heart...my burning hunger for unlimited power from beyond the stars. War. My sons slain by my enemies, their blood staining the formerly green meadows...and then...death.

The Silverfur clan...oh, how I detest them so much. If it had not been for Lord Angus' intervention, I would have been one step closer to becoming the ultimate ruler of the universe. I would have become like a god...a powerful god. But now it is all out of reach...and here I stand, in the deepest darkest bowels of the abyss, to atone for a great number of sins I committed against Ycelia's star children...

Ahh...what is this?

It appears the heavy chains on my paws have been broken by some mysterious force. But by what, exactly? And who?

A voice, distant and otherworldly, beckons to me...


"Arise, Lord Cian Lynxpaw. Your new servants await you."

Freedom. No longer bound in chains for another hundred thousand years. A portal to the world of the living opens above my flaming cell. And beyond it lies my one chance, my only chance, to lay waste to my rival's entire family line. Dare I take it?

It is done. The seeds of revenge have already been planted. What is left of the fabled blue crystal caverns now lies in the paws of one of Lord Angus' descendants
...and it will soon be mine.
This is a prologue to my official reboot of the long-awaited Pax series, which takes place fifteen years after the end of :iconmichael-goldenheart:'s Book Ten of the Galactic Guardian series. It is here, on the eve of our titular hero's 18th birthday, that the vengeful spirit of a slain J'Saari chieftain comes back from the dead and resumes his quest of destroying the Silverfur clan and stealing the legendary Crystal Amulet. Hope you enjoy it, and look forward to the epicness that's about to ensue!

An eternal abyss? Oh my! Not even the Netherealm could keep him down. I feel like the Lynxpaw's have always been at ends with the Silverfurs.
