《She-What and the Tiara of Tyranny》Understanding
Advertisement
The flames crackle around them
like mobbish insects.
“Where,”
She-What asks the sages,
“Is the boy?”
By now, Chys has arrived
in her super robot,
and as she approaches,
the two ends of her laser whip
clack together
like angry dogs.
“I’m not here
to waste my time,”
says She-What.
“And I am not to be
trifled with. Tell me —
or die.”
The men are silent.
These are weak men.
But She-What is bored,
and she’s hoping one of them
will entertain her.
One of them does.
“They’re gone!”
a young sage blurts.
“You’ll never find them!”
She-What goes to the man
and snickers in his face.
She grabs him by the throat
and lifts him
two inches off the ground.
“Tell me where they’ve gone,”
She-What commands.
The sage gasps for air.
His eyes widen in terror.
“I don’t know!”
the sage rasps.
“They didn’t tell us!
They knew... we’d talk....”
She-What drops the man
to the glass on the ground.
“That’s because you are
sniveling fools.”
She turns to Chys.
“They knew we were coming,”
she says to her friend.
“Looks like it,” says Chys.
“So...”
She-What says to the sages.
“None of you
has any information?”
She scans their faces,
and can see them calculating.
“Who wants to live?”
she asks.
“I can tell you where they went,”
speaks one of the sages,
a frumpy, balding man
with red hair.
“Shut up, Domas Mant!”
cries the young sage from before,
“I knew you’d talk!”
“Go to the Hells, Arat,”
says Mant.
“I’m going to live.”
She-What smiles.
“Tell me where they are.”
Mant steps forward.
“They went to the Underforest.
They left three days ago.”

“Three days ago!”
exclaims Chys.
“We didn’t know about this mission
until yesterday!”
Yes,
thinks She-What.
They knew we were coming.
What does the Supreme Executive
want
with this boy?
What enemies
stand between them?
“There is something else,”
says Mant.
“The man travelling with the boy,
he is sick,
dying.”
“What do you mean?”
She-What asks.
“The old wizard doesn’t
have long to live.
A stomach cancer.
He is in great pain.”
“Who is he?”
She-What asks.
“I don’t know.
Not really.
He showed up a month ago,
looking for the boy.”
“What is his name?”
She-What demands.
“Phantos. Phantos Geist.”
She-What takes a long breath.
“This trail is cold,”
she says to Chys.
“Tell Commander Veetman
to have these men skinned alive,
and to turn this place
into a hole in the ground.”
She points a finger at
Mant the Sage.
“Except this one.
He may go.”
“No!”
cries the young sage, Arat.
“You can’t just destroy
all this knowledge!
Don’t you understand how long
it took to assemble these books?
How old some of them are?
For the sake of humanity...
please don’t!”
She-What climbs into the cockpit
of her super robot.
“All of this knowledge,”
she tells the sage,
“And you don’t understand
anything.”

Welcome to Devos
Welcome to a world where humor, drama, and action clash in epic tales spanning a vast continent....Welcome to Devos An anime styled medieval fantasy world featuring heroes, gods, and demons in a grounded and story/character focused series. A world where the gods of power bestow elemental abilities on those they find worthy. Welcome to Devos is broken up into parts, each part is more or less a complete story that expands the world, characters, and kingdoms of Devos. It plays out a lot like Game of Thrones where instead of a lead character you have an entire cast, each one getting plenty of time to develop over the course of the series. It is a relatively grounded, character and story-driven adventure that focuses on people of interest and their relationships with each other, their nations, and the eight gods of power. While the story features a good blend of light and dark themes it can get really grim at times. The continent of Devos is comprised of 5 territories, they include the three kingdoms of Verdun, Ashmir, and Vespa along with the territories of two demon lords to the north and south. The time period and setting are basically what you would find in a fantasy anime. There are eight gods of power which wield eight different elements and have the ability to "bless" individuals with certain abilities. Monsters roam the wilderness and the ruins/dungeons that are scattered throughout the landscape. Adventurers complete quests, hunt monsters, and explore the vast continent. We've got heroes, demon lords, gods, spys, special operations assault teams, phantom eagles, kings & queens, cursed chickens, talking goblins, and a whole shit ton more already in with plenty more coming soon.
