Burning thought

Things were goning well at the new fortress of the light, on the outskirts of the chaos lands. They named it princes fall, after what they had achieved on the battlefield and after the enormous mountain that loomed, reaching for the skies nearby. The soldiers and the main Averonian army had gone back to Averonia, the city of the light, their home. Aronus thought of home but he knew he had to keep the Chaos forces from breaking this line that they had fought so hard to take but he saw smoke rising to the south-east, where the Aquelon fortress was built, he sounded an alarm just as an Aquelon messanger got to him, bleeding all over, the man fell into Aronus' arms "what is it man, what has happened" the messenger struggled to say his last words while blood trickled over his lips "hes.....coming....he is coming....coming", "who is coming" Aronus said quickly but he was too late as the messanger closed his eyes.
Some men took the body away from Aronus, the General got up as he saw a Dark form in robes walking towards the Gate of the keep, the form seemed human, simply a man dressed in black robes but he could sense dark and great power within him "stay back being of Darkness, this fortress of the light stands as a bastion to stop darkness entering this realm", the dark one stood silent, then put back his hood, it revealed not a demon but a man, his face was pale and nearly white, as if there was no blood running through him, his eyes were normal until eventually they had a dark black smoke coming from them, "i am here because you have killed one of my sons, this i cannot let pass without punishment" Aronus gasped but before he could breathe in air the robed figuire moved at such speed, Aronus' eyes could not see anything but a blur, the figuire sent a fist into Aronus, the proud general was sent through the Doors of the fortress and through several walls, the walls melted at the speed the Averonians body was moving, eventually Aronus fell to the floor, burning in flames and rolling to get them off.
Aronus got up to see the dark one walk over to him, "you people cannot take this world from me, now you shall die" the Dark one raised his hand in the air, while smiling, energies came to his hand and he effortlessly touched Aronus on the chest, the Averonian's face was still, he didnt move his eyes or mouth, neither terror, anger or agony, simply sadness and seconds later, his body melted, like an ice statue would in a desert. Aronus stood for several minutes, his flesh and skin melting and dripping while his bones were black and turned to ash inside him and fell out onto the floor, he felt nothing but a feeling of hopelessness, his memories of everything leaving him, the Dark one was destroying his people, so effortlessly, like a child would play with ants and small insects, ripping off legs and body parts as if he was untouchable, they ran at him with swords but he turned the swords onto them, they sent arrows at him which disintegrated as they left the bow. Aronus shed one tear, before his face started melting away, the last thing he saw was the Dark one standing in the rubble of the fortress, the shadowed figuire laughed to itself, just before pulling up its hood and turning its back, Aronus' face dissolved, to join the steaming liquid and flesh on the grounds of the ruin that was once a proud Averonian fortress, this was the beginning of a dark time, the Dark God had betrayed the rules of the other Gods and now God,immortal and mortal alike would walk the same Earth.
