To look upon the gates of the castle of Kaos, is to see something no one ever thought possible. Over the last month, the people of outland had grew restless. Then revolt begun. And now. An army. Though what puzzled the Storm Wraith most. Was how little resistance they had met. The black cloud of Tempest had grown from a storm, into a mighty hurricane. The first of Kaos's battallion encampents fell with only the deaths of but a handful of Kaos's soldiers. For the rest of them, were not there.
The second, had no deaths at all. No one was watching the training grounds of Kaos's armies. No one was there. Tempest believes that Kaos has drawn all of his forces in to protect his castle. He had brought the entire vast army to his home to quell his Stormwraiths plans in one fell swoop. So. He commanded his Wraith to build up an army of his own. The Wraith spread the word of tempest, and the fall of Kaos. Until finally. Thousands were at the entrance to Kaos's castle. Waiting of the wraiths word to storm it. And destroy it. They had destroyed encampent after encampment. But nothing was there. No troops, no food, no supplies. As if Kaos had picked up and left. But the castle. The Castle was still here.
The wraith rose his hands... and the Hurricane was unleashed. The wind blew trees into the walls, to knock them over and create holes. A tornado ripped through the gates. The guards stood little chance against the fury of the storm. Without protection, they were nothing before the wrath of Tempest. It must have been less than twenty guards. There was no fight. Or was it all a trap? Was Kaos pulling them all in close to wipe them out with a single blow? He had done it before in numerous occasions.
But, by the end of it all. The Wraith, Asuna and Methusela stood before Kaos's throne. Empty. There was a dark crystal floating near by. Pulsing. The Wraith looked to Asuna*
Do you know how Kaos came to banish the gods of this world? In the war of the ancients, Kaos was on the loosing side. The Gods were repelling him. The Storm Wraiths making short work of his armies. But Kaos cast a spell... a spell that could have only been created by divinity. A spell that came from his home realm. This spell, or in all truth a counter spell. That any god, who used their powers would entrap themselves. Tempest told his breathren to stop. To still their wrath. As he ended all storms on the planet. Tis why there have been no storms in outworld for so long. But his brothers would not listen. They continued to exume their wrath. But without the storm wraiths using tempests powers.... they entrapped themselves, and lost the war. For all to see.
*The Wraith looked to Kaos's throne. Adorned with magnificent jewels. Then Asuna may get it.. those jewels. They had been on Kaos's throne ever since she could remember. And at times, when you looked at them long enough. You could see something inside them. They were binding gems. Much like the one that pulsed in the room, the one that contained Jason. The wraith lifted his hands*
NO LONGER!...
*lightning spilled forth from his hands. Shattering the jewels atop the throne of kaos. And the one that seemed to be channeling Kaos's power in a corner? He decided to shatter that one too. Not knowing what lie inside. Jason's body fell to the ground. Seemingly lifeless. And the shadows began to rush to him. And encircle him. And as the other crystals shattered. Asuna would feel something she had not felt in a long time. The gods themselves. Broken free of their prison. Spreading back into outworld. The wraith stepped out upon a balcony. Looking over the people of outworld*
People of Outworld, OUR Land is FREE from the Tryanny of Kaos and his Magic! The Gods RETURN to spread their mercy over our wounded land. And we will put up barriers to ensure that Kaos can NEVER RETURN!

*But where was the dark mage? He was engulfed by his own fury. Unable to find his beloved. She had left him for good. She would rather keep that bastard child than be with him. Rather keep her vampiric love than be with him. And so he returned. He recoiled into what he was. He was a conquerer. Without his beloved Kattorea, he would do what he did best. And It was long over due. Before he had left, he had refilled his ranks. He had opened portals to a forward assault post. And he had moved Outworld's army. He had launched an attack upon another realm. Even now he sat upon one of his beasts of war. Watching as his tide of minions swarmed out over this new land. Armed with blades of magical light, to cut through the shadows and demons that stood against him. Magical shields to reflect the powers of htose that would face him. He watched as the invasion began.
Hellsgate.
His powers were godlike within the realms of earth and outworld. But here, they were increased 10 fold. His powers of evil and shadow kept his warriors cloaked in darkness. And even allowed him to snare within his power some of the very demons within Hellsgate. He knew who ruled here. Or at least, who stewarded here in her kings place. Kain had not been seen in ages now. Innocent ruled Hellsgate now.
And now Kaos would take it as his own. As for the Queen. Should could either remain Queen, while he ruled as king. Or she would fall, and a new queen would take her place. Perhaps he would use her to recreated his beloved Kattorea. Without Asuna once more. His eyes burned with dark power as he extended his hand. Ready to throw power unlike any Hells gate had ever seen before. A dark shadow that extended over walls, and gates... to melt them away into darkness. The Armies of Kaos were here. And with each battle, Kaos was remember what it was to conquer. He was remember how good it felt to bend others to his will, instead of allowing Kattorea to manipulate his obession.
The tidal wave of Kaos's army washed over Hellsgate, filling the landscape with the sounds of battle. Siege machines atop the back of battle beasts stepped forward. And here, attop his battle beast the next battle would soon begin. As Kaos looked on towards the castle of Hellsgate. He looked on to the home of Darkkiss. The time had come to take this new world. The mage was ready to wage war. The castle looked nearly defeated all ready. It was in need of repairs and there were all ready signs of damage upon it. Kaos stood. And gathered power within his palms. Raising them to the air he sent forth a blast wave with the intent of leveling the castle's defenses. But admidst its travel, the blast wave dissipated.
Kaos fell to one knee, as he felt something draining him. The power of the first evil was leaving him. How could this be.. unless. No. He tried to open a portal back to Outworld. Only to find he could not. Something would not let him. Something had happened. Something important. He would find out soon enough. But first. He grit his teeth. And looked to Innocents castle. First things first. He called forth his magic, instead of his powers of shadow. And blew a hole in the gate. To allow his legions to set forth. His siege machines came forth and began to rain down steel upon the castle itself. He looked up at the firey skys of Hellsgate. Then stood once more. Prepared for what ever may come *
