The fifty-fifth dusk draped Kael El's Ashen Empire in a sultry glow, golden veins threading the 10,906 square kilometers of his dominion. The major city thrummed, 150 buildings of bone steel and Mist Core pulsing as 2,688,000 subjects forged the day's gains. Kael lounged in the Lord's Estate's grand chamber, Stormforged Blade propped against a golden throne, EX: Dragonflame Reaver casting a warm flicker, Stormhide Armor shed to reveal his scarred, chiseled frame. His flirty smirk played across his lips, a cool dominance radiating as he surveyed his harem, twenty-eight beauties gathered in silks and armor. Rynne's shadow loomed 1,300 kilometers east, but tonight, Kael burned for his girls.
