The story of Golash, the Goblin Swimmer

I will attempt to tell a far better, original story. In another world, a planet with blue waters and a shining sun, there yet lived no people. However, from the sea came the Naturis, a race of much varied people who sought closeness with nature. They learned the ways of the plants and animals, the ocean and land. Then came more races. The Ghouls, the Vampyre, the Wolf-men, the Alfya (precursor to Elves. Appear as a mix of elves and fairies) and the Draconis (dragons). The warred and fought, but Naturis became king, but the Alfya had died, leaving only their children, the Elves to inherit their legacy. And so life continued, until the other races began to appear. The Felines, the Elves, the Dwarves, the Greenskins and the Humans entered this world. Once more the world warred, scattering a great many people to all reaches of the land. It is unknown when it entered the world, but a force known as Magic came. It roamed from world to world, granting some incredible power. Eventually, in pursuit of more power, they would destroy all life, and Magic would leave and travel to the next world. The Elves were the first to detect the presence of Magic and harness it, but the Humans were the first to master it. They sought power, and so power they were given. Some gathered enourmous power and were known as the wizard-kings. They ruled the world and defeated the other races, sending them to hide in their homes, save for the Dwarves, who were great friends with the Humans. The wizard kings ruled with impunity for hundreds of years. They destroyed cities in minutes and raised new ones just as fast. A great many people died in that time. The populations were dropping steadily, and were nearing none for many of the races. But in a small tribe in the mountains to the north, lived a youth named Diometrix. He was a healer's apprentice to his tribe, and while walking in the forests searching for herbs, he negligently killed an annoying insect with his newfound minor magical abilities. He was incredibly weak, and was unable to summon the strength to do it again. However, he felt a power after he made that kill, and he realized that he could steal the power and energy from those he killed, and raise his maximum potential. So he continued taking many walks in the forests to search for herbs, all the while killing hundreds of insects to increase his own power. Soon enough, he had enough power to begin killing small animals. He continued in this pattern, gaining more and more strength. However, his dwarfed that of even the weakest of magicians. So he used his access to those near death to mercy kill them, and by it gain significantly more power. Diometrix was now a fairly competent and powerful wizard. He was not anywhere near the equal of the wizard kings, but neither was he helpless. Diometrix dueled one of the wizards of his tribe, and succeeded in killing him, nearly doubling his strength. Outcast from the tribe, he wandered the mountains increasing his strength by preying on travelers and deer. He soon began to test his power, and he traveled south, where the nearest, and weakest wizard-king ruled. When he got there, he decided to back out, and instead of trying to face the wizard king, he instead killed one of his vassals, which was no small feat. Enticed by the hope of ruling their land, the mountain tribes gave their support to Diometrix, sending him criminals and the wizard-kings soldiers to execute and gain power. After a year or so, Diometrix felt he had the power to defeat the weakest of the wizard-kings, and thus become one himself. He traveled with his apprentices to his castle, and challenged him to a duel. Many of his apprentices died, but using them as a distraction, Diometrix slashed the wizard-kings neck, and finished him off with his mind. And thus Diometrix had the might of a wizard-king. The remainder of the story shall be concluded in round 2. ] All characters, places and events were created prior to this and are original thoughts by this user. The above writing is original, though this user has written a 8 and a half, single spaced history of the world, this is a far condensed version and leaves out any descriptions of the three war of the races.
