Total Annihilation: Kingdoms Novels & Stories

The Snow was under attack, the Mashirotzu was abroad, and the father was in charge. We were about to be descended upon by forces of pure evil, I was sure of this. Every kid in the kingdom knew the horror stories of the last great war, and even though we were not alive then, we can still see a lot of its effects around. The kingdoms of the west were reduced to the shadows of what they used to be. My grandmother told me of the beauty of the west, but today the place is full of struggling kingdoms. Most of the powerful kingdoms to the west were wiped out of existence as the Darkened one replaced them with his fortresses of terrors. These lands were won back by the union of races but the evils t

Instead, in their place laid stacks of hay piled up with dead bodies of men, women, and children. The rest of the kingdoms were just as bad if not worse. In fact, the atmosphere there was worse. It lurked of pain, agony, and evil energy. The kingdoms that were once trending in fancy clothes were now trending with rags, and the once happy faces were no more. Pain and agony covered their dirty faces. All the kingdoms were gone. They were no more. The inhabitants of Azania were now slaves working towards building a huge wall that combined all the kingdoms together, earning themselves lash to their backs for making the slightest mistakes.

The Forgotten's trial lasted exactly seventeen seconds before it was interrupted by invasion. We stood in the center of their conceptual courtroom—a space where seventeen thousand cosmic entities surrounded us in judgment formation—when reality tore open from five different directions simultaneously. Five armies poured through the breaches. Not supernatural enforcers or cosmic beings, but actual werewolf kingdoms mobilizing for total war. "The Northern Coalition under Alpha Darius's heir," we identified through integrated consciousness, processing threats from multiple angles. "The Eastern Empire led by Empress Katarina. The Southern Clans unified under High Chief Brutus. The Western Federat

Mia asked in curiosity. He broke out of his thought: “Of the nine kingdoms, King Damien has conquered four, and the ones still standing are the kingdoms of Klean, Jade, Wahala, and Foth. The fifth is Atlas, which remains unconquered on the northern seaside. At this point, we can say Atlas has also been conquered, and if not, they are well aware of the coming war between the two kingdoms. Are we to think they would risk their safety to travel in the enormous sea?” The throne room became silent.

“Then we make sure his entire kingdom falls.” Her fingers curled around his. No more running. No more silence. Just war. And this time, Anita wouldn’t stop until she was standing over the ashes of the empire that tried to erase her.

"Alliance? what does that mean?" "King Julian and the five kingdoms have decided to cooperate with us, Keith! you know that in war, we will not be able to win, if we are few in number. Moreover, the kingdom we are fighting against is Lithonia. Therefore, now we must be able to find out who our comrades and who our real opponents. Evangelia has always been on our side. But your father needs more solid evidence to show that they will not betray Edafos!" ***

It’s almost dark, and he is doing his usual end-of-day checking of the things I have learned. “All the human families who served and gained recognition during the war are given their own kingdoms to rule. So, from a single Kingdom, humans are divided into different lands. And the Pitchford is the thirteenth Kingdom founded since the war of hundred years ago.” “And the name of the original Kingdom?” “Orttenburg.” “Correct, tomorrow, we will—” “Harbin!” I look at the sound of the voice. It’s Theo. “King Eugene Theo Pitchford,” Harbin starts. “You are not allowed in this room. You have other documents that you need to finish right?”

King Vladimir announced when he and the rest of his family returned to the hall. Just as he expected, Regia Astara’s allied kingdoms, Regia Terrania and Regia Valexia, had left soon after them. Only Regia Solaria’s allied kingdoms remain, as well as the only kingdom where merfolks live, Regia Zepharia. It’s also the only kingdom that is neutral. No enemies, no allies. Being the only merfolk in Eldritch makes them practically the odd ones out, so the others tend to ignore or leave them be. The party continued with only four kingdoms remaining, though Regia Zepharia left an hour later, leaving the allied kingdoms on their own.

For years, every kingdom suffered under the regime of tyrant King Elijah. He whipped women, took the men as nothing but drum fetchers. The entire eight kingdoms were under him and he did no good. He was a bad king to his own Kingdom, and a worser one to others. Until six years ago, when he was finally brought down and killed by Lord Alejandro, a child he had undermined so badly. As punishment for him not having a male heir, the Lords took his one and only daughter, Meandra, and declared that she suffers the sins of her father. She’s to serve each kingdom for a year, as a slave nonetheless, tortured and broken just like her father did them.

She vowed to honor her father's legacy and seek justice for his untimely demise. The loss of King Fredrick and King Logan fueled a renewed sense of unity among the remaining kingdoms of the East. They recognized the need to stand together against the encroaching darkness that King Maximilian represented. The grand court convened emergency meetings, devising strategies to confront the looming threat and avenge the fallen kings.
