[[Fan fiction Journal entry from Vorago a Fire/Fire/Fire Blaster - Pinnacle]]

I can't tell how long it's been since I arrived here from the Dark Dimension time is so different here. But I write this now to keep the memories fresh, memories of home. Memories that even now leak away like the wonderment of youth not because the memories actually fade, but because the contexts of those thoughts themselves are no longer apparent.

It is as if this reality pushes those thoughts from my mind for it will not allow even the idea of another reality to live within it, this is a jealous reality and it will suffer the thoughts of no others. But I must remember I must fulfill the plan.

The dark dimension is not infinite not like this place, the whole of reality fits in an area no larger then the solar system that holds this planet. Not that there are any planets there, such things don't exist. It is a great expanse not unlike the shard… but not as cold, or lonely. It is a place of great battles some lasting eons (again as if that term means anything here as it does there.) Civilizations and people born within it know of nothing else but that battle and live their lives and die within its grasp.

Why?? I think of these things and now I wish to know why. It is a simple sounding question now.. here.. but there it never occurred to wonder why. This reality is jealous it wants explanations and that is imprinted on all that dwell within it.

Why am I here?
Why is there death?
Why…

But there is a why.

When I became a Grand Efreeti I learned of a dark secret, Athrigoth and the other Great War demons had known of the existence of the mortal world for a long time. They had discovered that the battles in our reality impacted the realm of mortals though on a very small scale.

For all but an eternity they have conspired to increase the scale of the conflict so that a greater impact on the mortal world would be felt. I am unsure of their goal in this, but if Athrigoth wants it to happen…

I don't

I wasn't sure how to stop him until at the battle of Kvat'tor I met a Shaman from the tribe of Beth'krav. He told me of the Great Barrier, and how to enter the mortal world. He also told me that though it is true actions here impact the mortal world the opposite is also true. He also told me that for some time Athrigoth had been interfering directly in the events of the mortal world, and he was doing this without the knowledge of the other War Demons.

If I had bothered to take the time to ask why a little more often I would have know this. My father Marcus Harker was from the mortal realm, a human cursed by Athrigoth before birth. Athrigoth had forced him to leave this realm and my mother when I was young. Now I know why, my father was proof that Athrigoth was "cheating". He was altering events in the mortal realm to better position himself in the Dark Dimension.

Going through the Great Barrier is no small task however. It is the junction between all realities to enter it is to risk being unmade. But I had to do it, only here in the mortal world could I finnally hurt Athrigoth and make him pay for all he has done.
