Necron: The Legend Of Rezar DeathWind

Chapter 193: Death From The Deep 4

The coldness of the waters wasn't a problem to Rezar, what was quickly turning out to be a problem was the pressure the deeper he went into the sea. He didn't think it was normal, and he was not as knowledgeable about this as those people who actually have obvious knowledge about the oceans, but the pressure came a lot earlier, and this time it didn't seem as if it was one caused by the water, but by something else. 25 meters down he came across a coral reef, this was low tide which meant these reefs were much deeper in the sea than the norm, but the reef itself was something of a beauty.

Multicolored and meticulously layered, it was almost as if he was looking as an underwater city, which was saying something, cause the deeper he went, the larger and more elaborate the reefs became. He would be extremely stupid if what he was looking at did not become any more obvious to him. This was a city, not a settlement not a village and not a town, but a full blow city right in front of his home, and quite literally under his nose. But then again even if it was a city, it seemed dead, maybe others would have been unable to see within the darkness of the water, but Rezar had his eyes open well enough to notice that the reefs while connected to each other had segments and sections to them that hollowed out in some corners to form houses.josei

The architectural style was something similar to a beds nest, it was like the reefs, twisted and curled into each other, maybe that's why they called them coral reefs…. or maybe not. There were layers to reefs that made then incredibly sturdy, the entrances were open, and Rezar could see enough of it to fully cement his theory. With tables, holes in the ground, light fixtures or shells hung from the walls and giving a dim light, these very much looked like someone's home. But that person was no longer here, whoever or whatever they were. He went deeper, and the reefs became more colorful and more symmetrical, in the end it became obvious that the deeper he went, the less natural the coral reefs became.

There was too much intent within the way they were arranged and spaced, and Rezar also felt that something was off with this place. Earlier he was able to see traces of a school of fish here or there, but the deeper he went and the better looking or rather more man made the reef looked, the lesser the amount of fishes he saw. To the point that he was not even seeing anything again, there was absolutely no sign of life anywhere, not even half of a fish swam past him. It was ironic, for someone so wrapped up in death to be worried about the absence of life…...it was really not what most would expect. He swam deeper until he finally came to a dead end, though it had taken him a good 35 minutes of swimming, and with his stronger than normal body, he swam faster than others.

There was a larger reef, or rather it would be better to just call this a palace built with a coral reef for materials, and maybe a couple thousand or million scales of a multicolored fish. This was probably the place where all of the important people probably lived, it looked nice if not a little gaudy for his taste, not the kind of place Rezar would fancy himself living in. honestly speaking there was nothing wrong with living in a majestic palace, he one day hopes to get one, the Mayor's House was an upgrade, from the village chief's Abode that he lived in, only it wasn't a palace, and there was much to be improved on. The building in front of him however would put most palaces to shame…. alas he's never see one, or he couldn't remember ever seeing one.

Well seeing as, the doors to the palace was wide open, he swam inside, coming up into one of the most majestic halls he's ever seen, not that he's seen lots of halls in his life, at the very least he still had some from his memories of earth, and those memories say this hall was one of the best he has seen, except of course it was in ruins. Pieces of furniture were floating about within the water, it was almost as if there was a massive fight in here, and it had to be quite severe as Rezar could actually see scorch marks on the walls, and there were broken statues of a dragon spread every which way. Rezar swam deeper moving past the hall before coming up into a passage way, it looked really weird though.

From what he could see the water seemed to come to an abrupt stop, like there was an invisible wall holding it back from entering the passageway. There were weirder things, but Rezar would not let that stop him from finding out what lay beyond, so he walked through it, coming out of the water to stand in a passageway that was completely dry. He removed the breathing apparatus from his nose, letting it hand around his neck as he took a deep breath of the stale air…...he didn't see the skeletons on the ground, he could already feel and smell death the moment he came into the hallway. Rezar was never one for subtlety, that energy that brought him down here was just ahead, and he really was impatient to see just what it was.

He rushed forwards, coming up into a massive chamber, he noticed three things. The massive dead corpse of a dragon, the egg it held tightly in its claw, and the man dressed in black that was looking at it whilst resting his back on a blood red and black spear, which had eyeballs popping out of its shaft and mouths on its blade. The energy he felt didn't come from the dragon or the egg, it came from the man!

"Well Rezar Deathwind himself! I have to say I didn't think you capable enough to take the bait I left out for you. I have to say my evaluation of you has gone up quite a bit. Well then! I guess introductions are in order. My name Is Malik Black, to others I'm known as The Grand Reaper, and in the name of the holy church of Yahweh you are to come with me to serve a purpose greater than yourself…. or I will remove your arms and legs to make you more compliable, so what's it going to be, Boy!"
