The city was his finally. What he had wanted to he had achieved. The evil lord laughed. He commanded his army.
"Move into the city.Slave the men. Take the women and children alive. Slay the old. Find the prince. Bring him to me alive.I shall slay that wretch myself."
The evil army began moving into the city. They enslaved who were alive and took them the tents they had patched up in the plains and guarded unceasingly by the evil guard. The goblins pillaged everything from the houses,money gold and whatever that had been preserved. The king's cavaliers who were still fighting were outnumbered. They either fled or were killed. Thos who managed to flee fled west in search of hope. The three dragons hovered in the air.
The evil king entered the citadel.
"Ah! Mine at last! My oath of revenge is fulfilled. Now I shall rule this world till its ending.! Nah There can be no end to this world till I command it. I have the power to rule the earth,the water and the air. My old powers will be back once I sit on this throne. Nothing shall prevent me from ruling the earth." The evil lord gave a wicked laugh.
He went forward. He looked at the throne. The throne was golden. The seats were maroon. The throne was carved so gracefully and it had a gem above that shone with the power of light. The evil lord sat on the throne and as he sat a powerful shockwave passed through the very earth and came back with the power of old. The evil lord was himself jolted and he fell down from his thrown. Some houses crumbled and there was much panick unknown. The ground shook terribly but then it stopped. The goblins looked about. Everything was in debris. Except the walls and the citadel nothing stood. The city looked as ravaged as when the evil king was defeated years before.
A goblin commander came into the citadel.
"My Lord. The city is destroyed. nothing stands now as of old."
"Rebuild the city. Fast. I want a temple built atop this place. It shall be a tribute to Sauron of old and through him Melkor."
"Also my lord, There is no sign of the prince."
"He must have escaped. Poor him. He does not know his doom. Take an army after him. Send the dragons to me. He wouldnt have gone very far. Find him and slay him.You are relieved."
"As you wish my lord."
Saying this the goblin left the citadel. The evil king took to the great balcony east of the citadel and he looked about. The land was still burning. Dead bodies were piled up on the plains. Air was still. The evil breath was flowing. The mountain standing aloof erupted. Huge lava rocks burst out. Rivers of lava flowed through the lands. Trees were burnt and fell. Resources werer gathered. The city was being rebuilt. The women and the slaves were put to work. They cursed their ill fortune and wished themselves to death.
The dragons flew over the citadel and came to the balcony of the king.
"Command my lord."
"Find the prince. He has escaped. Slay him when you find him. He must have taken to the west and south. Go. Put your spells upon him and slay him as quick as possible. I dont want any one worthy of taking revenge on me alive in this wide world. Leave now and come back only after you slay him. May the evil stars shine upon you abd speed you with my blessings."
"Your command will be fulfilled. We shall return with the body of the prince., slain and burnt."
A host of goblins and the dragons set forth from the city. They moved west for many miles and turned south. They came to the place where the prince had buried his father. There they found horseprints still fresh. They followed it till they came upon the meeting of the prince and the rangers. The dragons sensing that the time had come breathed fire upon them. The dragons commanded the goblins to move south and then west as fast as they can. The goblins under their commander did as they were told. they rushed and reached the mountain. The dragons were already there.
These dragons and goblins it were that were slain at the battle of the fortress.
