OOC: Been two days since I updated it, so now, it's going to be an extra long comment. Yay.

Orcus, Chemical Research Bay

James Bloodridge soon woke up, after drinking the veil. The room he was in was dark, and desolate. The door was locked.

"Head to Korhal...Enter the monolith...Heed my commands..."

Soon afterwards, a massive laser blast soon shook the facility. Scientists and engineers started to run about, panicked over something. Soon, a massive explosion happens further down the hallway, as a room is instantly depressurized and eradicated. It was a familiar sound...

"Sir, someone is firing a Yamato cannon at us," said one of the scientists.

Soon, another eruption happens, shaking the chemical research facility. James Bloodridge soon gets to his senses, and starts to run.

"Intrusion alert. Unknown drop pods detected landing on the ceiling exit!"

Bloodridge soon runs into one of the more hidden rooms, which has a path that leads to the Weapons Testing facility. As he was running through, he heard the intel reports.

"Sir, it's the Hyperion! It's firing drop pods on the chemical research labs! It must be trying to claim th-"

There was nothing. Static. Soon, Bloodridge grunted in pain, as a searing pain soon envelops in his brain. The voice is calling again.

"Go...hurry...for time is short. Do not fail me."

"I...will...obey," said Bloodridge, "I WILL OBEY!"

Bloodridge soon gets up, and starts to dash towards the docking facility. Along the way, he saw people running for help, Dominion marines trying to rush in and help repulse the attackers. James didn't stop for any of that, and soon, he enters the docking bay, boards his Python, and takes off. As he exits, the exterior camera view shows the TDAV Hyperion, along with 2 TDAV Minotaurs initiating warp. Nearly 10 second later, the entire might of the Terran Dominion fleet came in, and all they saw was three wake trails left behind from the ships that just left.

"You will have you revenge later...now...hurry...for time is short..."

"Indeed," responded James Bloodridge, in a unusually deranged matter, "Indeed."

Korhal, Unknown Location

The Python soon touches down, near a massive, natural-made monolith. Storm clouds have already started to gather, and James Bloodridge saw what he had to cross, a 100 meter long unstable bridge. As far as Bloodridge can see, there is no other way to cross through to the structure. The voice soon calls out.

"Cross the bridge...Find the entrance..."

Bloodridge soon sets off, and starts to cross the bridge. It creaked and moaned as he walked across it. Soon, as soon as he crossed the bridge, the supports gave in, and the bridge soon collapsed, with Bloodridge barely walking out in time. He notices the entrance, and starts off towards it.

"The entrance is upon you...but now...there is no escape..."

Bloodridge soon opens the door, and soon, it swings through. Almost immediately, he is met by a massive blast of cold air. Bloodridge looks up, and sees a long, long spiral up the massive monolith, soon stretching from the top. He also finds a sword, gleaming in the forgotten destination like a frozen crystal.

"Grab the blade...Climb the steps..."

Bloodridge impulsively grabs the sword, and sets off up the stairs. As he is climbing up, he hears flashbacks of his past life...

-You have much potential...you can be a great leader...- -Damn it, James.- -Forget this business, and leave!- -You lied to your men, and betrayed the colleagues that you worked for...what has happened to you, Bloodridge...- -Become an admiral, and death awaits...-

As he walks up the stairs, he soon has flashbacks of him talking to Mona Whitman, one of the Rear Admirals employed in the Prometheus Corporation.

"Did you realize what you done," Mona said, "sending the whole fleet in?" - "You are not my authority, I am my own! Now get out of my office if you still want your skull intact! Get out," replied Bloodridge.

Soon, Bloodridge finally reaches the top of the spire, with his sword packed along. As far as Bloodridge can see, there was several tendrils, and a massive, frozen trap, leading towards a hidden secret...

"Return...the blade..."

"Complete...the circle..."

"Release me...from this prison..."

With a massive cry of anguish, anger, and strength, Bloodridge soon runs up to the massive, icy "prison", primed his blade, and brought it down towards the prison. Soon, it breaks apart, and a massive wind-blast fires out, forcing him to drop the blade. Soon, a massive burst of darkness and shadow, seemingly flies right out of the prison,me shrouding James. A pyramid-shaped artifact can be spotted.

"Grab the artifact...combine...our souls!"

Bloodridge, struggling with the wind pushing him back, soon grabs the artifact. He presses a tab, and it pops off. A final veil can be seen from within. James soon grabs it, opens it, and drinks it. Soon, like before, he loses complete muscular control. However, this time, he didn't fall down.

"We...are now one...with the shadows..."

Soon, James Bloodridge blacks out, and faints, on the icy floor on top of the spire. Before he gives in, and falls asleep, he hears one last order.

"Our journey has only began, Bloodridge..."

OOC: There we go.
