Disclaimer: I claim not ownership except to the words which I myself wrote. If this seems overly dramatic or over-the-top, then good (that's intentional).
Reasonable enough?
Okay, Let's do this.

THE LOOKING GLASS:
THE EMPOWERED CHRONICLES(an ongoing work)
Book I: The Tales of Nefarious Lord of the Tunnels
by Metal Dawn
I Genesis First there was a mission.
It appeared suddenly. People played it; liked it it even. It had it's flaws, but it had potential as well. The thread was thronged with praisea and good critisicm.
But all was not well. A dark cloud hung over the soul of the mission's creator, slowly seeding.
Or perhaps that was an illusion perhaps the darkness had already seeded itself and the creator had planned the conspiracy all along.
No matter, the story shall continue as it was observed.
II AdventThe Lord of the Tunnels became darkly twisted. On a simple wandering in the trophy halls of his fellows' stronghold, he discovered works far superior to that of his. Jealously took hold. His swollen pride willing, he created many demons from his own flesh.
And the Tunnel Lord shouted unto his demon commanders,
"Arise, Salvador.
Arise, Marcogiotto.
Arise, Butakutaya.
Arise, Southred.
Arise, Motleycat.
Arise, all."
When the leaders stood at ready, he issued the order for the total ruin of his enemies.
III BetrayalThe dark agents' attack was fast and un expected. Overabundant and undeserved favor was swung towards the Tunnel Lord and chaos run amok.
The dark ones swarmed the domains of the Taffers, betraying trust, flagrantly spreading lies and confusion, and attempting to rob honest mortals of their livelihoods and work.
IV RetaliationSensing all was not well, the enforcers of light quickly set for investigations and fought back, striking down the wicked demon lords.
The fight was difficult and testing. The evil lords had many weapons on their side and often resort to hide the webbing of lies they wove.
When one blasphemous lord was vanquished, a new one would rise to renew the fight.
V Aftermath...and the Continuing StruggleWhile the dust seems to have settle for the moment, the battle may very well still continue on. The Tunnel Lord is likely to be hiding in his secret, cavernous domain while his many dark agents watch from the shadows for the next chance to strike.
Still the Warriors of Light must be praised for their continuing effort to vanquish this lethal and mysterious foe. May the Soul of the Looking Glass watch over them eternally.
The names of heroes in this affair are too numerous.
However, if you want to name heroes, please feel free to nominate at will.
