Chapter 1011 The Call.
Ragnarok experienced peace for the first time in a long while. He isn't being chased by anyone anymore, and he can rest without fear. That doesn't mean that the conflict within the plane has subsided. The giant storm that started to brew when he was born continued to brew within the plane. Only its direction has changed.
The Vampires were aggressive at first when he was born. They attacked the surface from every direction, looking for something important. But they have retreated now. It seems that they have found what they were looking for. They have gone from being active to being passive meanwhile the opposite happened to their enemies.
The retreat of the Vampires didn't make the wood elves happy. They can't be happy since the Vampires still exist and are proliferating silently below the surface. The longer they wait, the weaker the gods defending the plane become and the weaker the Will of the plane becomes due to the infiltration of the plane by the Will of the demon god.
If they want peace to return to the plane, they have to uproot the Vampires entirely. But they can't go underground to fight the Vampires on their home turf. The underground has been a safe haven for dark elves for a long time, and it continued to be so for Vampires. The fountain of life can't see down below, and the Underdark is very dark. There are also little plants for the tree elves to use to aid them in fighting.
Fighting underground is a completely bad idea for wood elves. They have made numerous attempts to test that theory and it has held true. The darkness and the small fighting spaces in the tunnels serve as an advantage to Vampires. Wood elves always return with massive losses after every excursion to the Underdark.
Fortunately, all hope is not lost. A Warrog that is a bane to all vampires has been born. This Warrog is also the child of the plane. The wood elves had to accept a truce between the two races despite their hatred. They are desperate for help so they will take any help they can get.
This truce has a lot of impact on the Warrogs. For one, their mana entities or Alphas of Alphas are allowed to become transcendents now. They won't be hunted anymore. They also won't be forced to live in different settlements without communicating with each other.
The most important change of all is the freedom granted to the two Emperors of the race. This freedom means that Emperors can create an Empire again. They can amass an army onto themselves and become the backbone of a Civilization.
An alpha needs a squad and an Alpha of Alphas needs a park to show their full strength. An Emperor needs an army too. An army is millions of Warrogs that will run with the Emperor and do the bidding of the Emperor. To create an army, an Emperor will have to put out "The Call."
Ragnarok was resting peacefully in his castle when Emperor Rinoz put out the call. He heard it deep in the earth where he was. He would have heard it no matter where he was in the plane. The Call is more of a spiritual announcement than a physical one. It uses the connection between all Warrogs to inform them that an Emperor exists and that the Emperor is calling them to battle. The Warrogs who hear the Call and answer it become part of the army of the Emperor.
The power of the Emperor determines how far their call will reach and how compelling their call will be. The existence of other Emperors will also affect the effect of the call. In the case where there has not been an Emperor for such a long time, then every Warrog alive will hear the call.
In the case where the Emperor making the call is the child of the plane, then every being in the plane will hear the call regardless of their race. The whole of the plane will know today that the Warrogs have a new Emperor and that they are on the rise once more.
And in the case where the Emperor is as powerful as Origin gods, then the call isn't just a spiritual announcement anymore. It becomes a physical phenomenon that can be felt by every living being in the plane. The physical phenomenon in this case was the appearance of a star in the sky. A bright Celestial body rose in the sky in the plane.
The light of this star shone so brightly that, for the first time in more than 100 Origin cycles, people experienced normal daylight again. Some people who had never experienced daylight didn't understand what was going on. They felt fear and trepidation for the unnatural ball of light that appeared in the sky.
This star is a phantom manifestation. It is not real, but it felt very real. It produced light and heat that felt like the light of the real sun. Then this star turned into the bright head of a fox with antlers on its head. The fox opened its mouth and roared.
"Rawrrrr!"
Ragnarok was deep in the earth, so he didn't notice the physical phenomenon. But he did notice the effect of the roar. He was lying down on the earth, so he definitely noticed the shaking of the earth. The roar of the fox caused the earth to rumble intensely all over the plane as if a large group of animals were migrating and stampeding. It caused him to wake up with a jolt.
"What's that?" He asked.
The demon god replied with a sigh. "The Child of the plane has finally been unveiled."
"Is that so?" He asked in mild surprise. "She seems very strong."
He was wondering why the unveiling of the child of the plane would cause so much ruckus when the spiritual impact of the Call hit him. It was like the aftershocks after a massive earthquake. The spiritual impact is also massive, which says a lot about how powerful the force that made the entire plane shake is.
