‘YOU WISH TO KNOW MY PLANS?’ The words cut through Mannfred like hallowed blades, their burning intensity drowning out all other thoughts but hatred. But Nagash at last withdrew his transfixing stare.

‘THIS ONCE,’ Nagash continued. ‘I WILL INDULGE YOUR CURIOSITIES. THE MAGIC OF AN ENTIRE REALM HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO ME. THE ENDING OF ALL THINGS WILL SOON BE MINE TO SHAPE.’ He spoke with oppressive finality, every word delivered as an inescapable certainty.

‘WITH THE POWER OF SHYISH AT MY COMMAND, THE DEAD OF THE MORTAL REALMS WILL RISE AS ONE. THE LIVING WILL BE SLAIN BY THE UNDEAD, AND THEIR SOULS WILL DESCEND TO SHYISH – NO LONGER TO MYRIAD UNDERWORLDS, BUT ALL TO NAGASHIZZAR.’

Mannfred listened to his master’s words, his hate replaced by awe at the scope of Nagash’s design.

‘WITH THEIR FOLLOWERS GONE, THE SO-CALLED GODS WILL ALSO FALL. ONE BY ONE THEY WILL SUBMIT TO MY DOMINION, OR ELSE I WILL TURN THEM TO ASH.’

The Mortarch winced at Nagash’s words. It was this choice between eternal service and annihilation that had seen him bound to the Great Necromancer for uncounted centuries.

‘THROUGH DEATH I WILL ACHIEVE WHAT SIGMAR THE SOUL-THIEF NEVER COULD. I WILL HAVE ORDER. UNQUESTIONED. UNENDING. AND WITH THAT ORDER, I WILL PURGE CHAOS FROM THE MORTAL REALMS.’

With his last words still resonating in Mannfred’s mind, Nagash turned and floated away. But as he passed into darkness through the archway, the Great Necromancer uttered one last thing to his Mortarch.

‘DO NOT DECEIVE YOURSELF, SERVANT. MY VICTORY IS INEVITABLE.’

Mannfred looked up at the Great Black Pyramid that scarred the sky, and beheld the construction for what it truly was. Nagash was right – the end of life would soon come. Mannfred knew he could not subvert his master’s will. Not now.

Not yet.
