(It's Zayin, and describes how Zayin is developing. Plus, even when it's not mentioned, it's still happening. So might as well mention it. Like how Alpha fought her supposed dad that one time. No one needed to hear about it, since we could simply say it happened off screen, but we still get it anyways, so deal with it.)
(Meanwhile, somewhere far away from Zayin, in a jungle temple. Because I have an idea for a villain and stuff.)
"...Here it is, my lord."
"Finally. Means to spread despair across the world. The ancient temple is quite stocked with weapons despite being so old. Surprise it wasn't ransacked a long time ago."
"Well, my lord, it was because we were guarding it for your return."
"Return? Even with your clone of yourself, there's something missing from you, Draedon. Your brain! Without it, you're a mere scrap of metal. Can you even see what I am?"
"Er... Yharim?"
"Storytime for you hunk of metal. Make sure you embed this in your circuits. After The Jungle Tyrant Yharim cursed Calamitas for her betrayal, he then experimented with clones, like with Calamitas before, and with Yharon, one was injected with the souls and spirits of the strongest creature that could be found. That clone became more unstable and unpredictable, it's eyes grew larger and it infused itself with a tablet, that it only says "NO U" only. After some time passed, because of rust, it stopped working correctly and started to say Syntax Error. This was THE LORDE. The other clone was almost exact replica of The Jungle Tyrant. Injected with a few mysterious experimental chemicals, the clone could absorb energy from any attack and become immune to it immediately and duplicate the same attack, to certain extents. After Yharim's disappearance, THE LORDE was sealed in the temple and the other clone was expelled from the temple. As he made his way through the world, most of the other townspeople attack him for the Yharim's reputation, however, the clone was kinder than Yharim because, even though he was a clone of Yharim, he did not share the same memories so he still treated all with kindness."
"So, you are YC001?"
"And you think I'm kind, compassionate, and all that pathetic emotions. No. I am his Phantom, of course. While my other decide to spend meaningless time with helping others, now, we are going to spread the despair he always feared."
*The Phantom sits into the once abandoned throne of Yharim, and begins pressing a sequence of buttons on the arm rest.*
"And if we want to do that, then let's first repeat what my predecessor tried so many eons ago, and rebuild this army. But, the way we are going to rebuild this once glorious empire is with this. Behold!"
A vial of dark substance rises from the floor of the temple.
"The Petrified Despair! By feeding it magic and any powerful fuels, it will make my powers as a Phantom more stronger than ever before. And once that is done, nothing will be able to stop me from spreading the despair so everyone will fall to it! But... There is a problem."
"And that is...?"
"The other worlds, of course. Do you think we are alone? Cryogen in this world may have been defeated and Permafrost may have been freed, but in another world, or a few hundred, he may still be stuck in that prison. So, I say we are going to have to step up our game. We aren't just going global, we are going interdimensional with our conquest of despair. But first, to make sure the seams of this world is unstable enough for us to draw more power to the Petrified Despair, we are going to pay the Cultist a visit. Apparently, no one has decided it's time to mess with magic to the extent he has in this world and break the seal to summon the dark lord. Once he is defeated and the world is tearing at its seams, we'll be able to harness its celestial powers to fuel the Petrified Despair and make my power multiply a thousandfold! Then we will make the world fill with despair as it consumes all with no discrimination! Now, let the chaos, begin!"
