[@Cuccoruler] I've used his influence so many times now. You don't sell your soul to a god and get to betray him, but if suitably corrupted who knows what disrupted magic is stifling what can and can't be done? And Occus, one of the eldest of the mixed blooded merged and steeped so deep in arcane lore he could turn a god into a goldfish, slain by a mere sword? Wiping out magic and turning his most trusted friends on him was exactly the best option to take. Then, a whole floor of Fae turn traitor exactly as magic is nullified? Better believe corruption played it's hand there too. And every single one of the old gods were hell bent on wiping out the merged when they revived? Potentially some would have run like hell, or tried to find a solution that didn't end in a second death, nope they had to be corrupted too, just to be sure! The aliens, a trillion souls dedicated to a peace God, and the instant he goes missing the leaders are all about blasting those humans to dust and ash? Something fishy there. The ground invasion was reluctant, but once the war was ignited did they really have a choice but to fight back? And still so much more deceit and trickery to come! Not all the evil is caused by Zeltrax, but so much of it is he might as well just be dubbed 'The Cause of Everything Gone Wrong'. I had so very much fun spreading havoc in his name. <3
