Aftermath

“FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!” yelled Moira as she saw her father’s lifeless body laying at the feet of the monstrous John Newman. Moira’s heart dropped as her eyes shot between the man that raised her and the man that killed him. Everything around her faded away as her life with her father flashed through her eyes. Him teaching her how to fight, him bringing home a new sister for her when she mentioned how lonely she felt, him preparing her for the burdens of being a Warden.

Moira felt it. A burning desire. A desire to wipe away all those who would dare **** the Lady’s gift of magic and harm those that could not defend themselves. This righteous fervor heated her entire body, she could feel the power flowing through her, and a desire to protect all those that she could.

A bright light engulfed Moira while it pushed away any Order soldiers near her and completely disintegrated all the undead caught in its holy power. The new beam of light caught the attention of John as he gazed upon the daughter of his latest victim and watched as she disappeared in the light from the sky. Last time this happened, I gained my paladin powers. I wonder... John said as he looked back at Lord Brighton’s lifeless body and then back to Moira.

As the beam of light died down, Moira emerged from the light. A new radiance seemed to shine from her as she looked over the battlefield. She wore a stoic look on her face as her eyes darted between John, her father, and her troops as she took in all possible information. Her arm reached down and pulled her shield out of the ground. She then bent down and grabbed her warhammer from the ground.

“All troops...fall back,” a stern sounding Moira said. The remaining Order troops looked at each other in confusion.

“But, Lady Moira, aren’t we here to stop these heathens?!” asked one of the few remaining officers.

“That’s Warden Moira to you, officer. With my father’s ****, my full power of the Golden Rose has been awakened. And with that power I now see that this war was a terrible, terrible mistake. John Newman had done nothing to fault the Lady. In fact he was blessed with her power to fight against our true enemies. But my father, in his confusion and anger, mistook him for an enemy of the Order and **** Mr. Newman to become the very monster he preached John was. I will not make the same mistake. We shall retreat from not only this battle but from this continent. While in our absence it is true that many of the shadier aspects of the American Abyss will spring up, I have faith that the Lady will choose another to protect his area. Now come, let us leave,” Warden Moira said as she turned and walked away. Her troops quickly followed suit and retreated with her. John watched as she and her troops left and allowed it, willing the undead ghouls to allow them safe passage. John cast one last Observe on Moira just to see this new and improved girl.

When the Order troops were out of sight, John’s companions rushed to be by his side. Mica merely disappeared and reappeared next to John but knelt down near the lifeless body of Lord Brighton.

“John, are you ok?!” asked Miho.

“Master, is everything alright?!” cried Idena.

“My liege, do you need healing?!” questioned Gali.

“Ladies, calm down. Let John answer one question before asking another,” Mikuru pointed out.

“I’m ok, I’m alright, and I’ll be fine,” John said as he answered each girl’s question in order that they gave them. He turned his attention to Mica as she studied Lord Brighton’s body. “What is it, Mica?” John asked the **** goddess.

“While his soul would normally go to whatever afterlife he believed he would go to, mother made it quite clear that his soul was to be brought before her for judgment,” Mica said before she slowly disappeared. The girls looked around momentarily confused until Mica appeared again, this time with the ghastly spirit of Lord Brighton bound in ethereal chains and gagged. “I have claimed the prize for my mother. Now, it should be about time,” Mica said as she turned to look at John.

“What do you meaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!” John said as a sharp pain attacked his body all at once. It felt like the icy grip of **** was tearing out a part of him. You have done well, John Newman. You have completed my task given to you. As such, your rewards will be given to you, as I promised.

“L-Lady ****?!” was all John could say as he dropped Frostmourne and grabbed his head. The throbbing pain nearly drove the young man mad. He ripped off his helmet and took a deep breath as he felt claustrophobic. John did not notice that his helmet dispersed into a blue energy and got sucked into Frostmourne. The feeling of his insides seemingly being ripped apart distracted John from his armor returning to Frostmourne piece by piece. The pain only subsided when a pulse of blue light shot out of John’s mouth and eyes, straight into the sky. The last thing John saw before he passed out was a barrage of pop ups.

John awoke a few minutes later with the faces of every woman on the battlefield surrounding him as they looked down on him to see if he was alright. John did not see their worried faces, however, because he was too engrossed in all the mammaries of various sizes that now swung in front of him. A smile crept across his faces as this first sight was clearly the best sight he could have asked for. Well, if I died and went to heaven, at least I’m surrounded by boobs!

“I think I see his eyes opening!” Idena said as her worried face looked even more closely at John.

“He’s fine,” Mikuru said in a rather drab tone. “Just look at his smile on his face and rock hard dick in his pants,” she said as she gave John a light kick.

“Ow! Hey! I just died, you know!” John said in an attempt to get some sympathy out of the girls he lecherously looked over.

“Yeah, and then you came back with a **** goddess as the fucking Lich King!” Miho shouted excitedly.

“Is that why some of my beloved kin have such mutilated bodies?!” asked a very weak Princess Sylva as she and Uratha used each other as support to make their way to the rest of the girls and John.

“Yes. It seems when Lord Brighton killed John, **** herself summoned him to her side and gave him that immense power to kill Lord Brighton,” Gali explained to the two girls who had missed the final fight.

“Heh. It seems that the old witch did bet on the right horse after all,” Uratha said as a small smile spread across her face. “Either way, thanks to you, I’m now free of my debt to her!” she said happily.

“Would you like to stay with us? I’m sure we could find some room. Plus we could use your help-” John was cut off before he could finish speaking.

“Noooooooo. Nope. Nada. I already ended up indebted to one human and I have no plans to become indebted to another one right when I get free. Thanks but no thanks,” Uratha said as she stepped away from the Princess, closed her eyes, and began to concentrate.

“Uzombec rath naltru!” she spoke as a pentagram appeared under her feet and a wall of hellfire shot up from the design before it quickly subsided, leaving only the burnt pentagram in the ground.

“Not surprising. I’d probably not wanna become indebted so fast after becoming free either,” John said as he got back to his feet. John’s knees buckled a bit as he attempted to support his own weight. Luckily, Idena and Mikuru were able to catch John before he tumbled back down to the ground. “Thanks,” was all John could say as he saw the blinking of minimized pop-ups waiting for him.

“Are you alright, master?” The worry in Idena’s voice could easily be made out by John but he gave her a smile and pulled her in for a hug.

“It’s ok, Idena. I’m fine now, thanks to you. To all of you. I’m proud to have you all by my side. Thank you all,” was all John could say at the moment before the rest of the girls piled on and gave him a hug. Once they all broke off the group hug John hit the button to bring up the pop-ups he must have received during the battle.

“Well that’s a lot of new information. Also, another powers update? Really? Can’t you just add it now?” John asked to both Gaia and Lady **** since he himself wasn’t sure who exactly controls his powers now.

We both do.

Yes, it seems she had a back door that allowed her access again but cannot block me access.

For now.

“Oh man, this is gonna be annoying,” John groaned as he and the girls walked towards his now ruined castle.

“What is, my lord?” asked Gali as every girl’s eyes were on him.

“So, turns out Gaia and Lady **** now can communicate with me and alter my powers. So yay me!” John said sarcastically. The girls couldn’t help but giggle at the news.

“Compared to what we just went through, I don’t think that is all that bad,” Miho pointed out.

I like her.

“Oh no, please don’t comment on things other people say too. It’ll drive me insane!” John pleaded with Lady ****. After a few seconds of silence John received a reply.

Very well. Gaia and I both agree to reserve the right to interject whenever we see fit, however.

“Of course you do. Either way, what are we going to do about this?” John said as he motioned to the castle.

“Good question. Perhaps we can make some upgrades as we rebuild it?” asked Mikuru.
“What do you have in mind?” he asked.

“A few things. But perhaps we should get an architect to assist us?” she asked.

“That’s a very good idea. Once we do that, we can focus on rebuilding," John told his companions as they gathered around him to stare at the destroyed home they had all just gotten used to.

"We can help with that!" Mimi and Yatina yelled as they ran towards the group while Brenda briskly walked behind the two.

“And how will you do that?" Asked Miho as she gave pats to the two young derps. The two derps looked at each other and smiled.

"DERPTIME!" They shouted as they raised their hands in the air proudly.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" yelled John with outstretched hands that slowly turned to plastic as everything around him turned into Lego pieces.
