Dark Carnage

Dark is the gatekeeper for The Nether. He brought Netherized’s body to life.

## Creation of Netherized - 0067

Dark is the Gatekeeper. He was visiting the nether in hopes of creating a more powerful blaze. He took blaze rods, a wither skeleton skull, and obsidian. He lit them on fire and chanted and ancient spell he had created. An entity appeared where the materials had been. He bore resemblance to a nether portal. He was garbed in obsidian clothing. He screamed the sounds of a ghast and snorted like a piglin. He hit dark and gave him the wither effect instantly. Dark quickly drank milk and knocked out the strange figure.

He brought him back to the overworld where he conducted some experiments. He put water on the figure and the figure was not hurt. The figure woke up and started speaking in an unintelligible accent. The figures speech slowly improved.

The figure spoke his first word, “Why. WHY DID YOU DO THIS!” Dark was confused, “You we’re not supposed to come out this way. You were supposed to be a blaze with a wither skull.” The figure still did not seem satisfied. Then the figure got up and punched Dark in the face. Dark staggered. He had been given the wither effect again. He drank some milk and then went over to the figure and said, “Who are you?”

The figure hit dark again. Dark drank milk. The figure said, “I am the Nether.” Dark was confused, “You can’t be the nether. I just came from there.” The Nether said, “I am the soul of the nether. You took me and trapped me in this, thing.” “I did not try to.” Dark said. Dark could sense that The Nether was debating whether or not to fight him.

Dark decided appeasing The Nether was the best route. “Should I call you The Nether or would you prefer to be called something else?” “Call me Netherized” Netherized said.

## The Creation of The Withers - 0089

Dark was sitting in a circle of stones when he got the idea. The Nether needed population. He knew that it would be difficult to create any type of being after he had created Netherized’s body. Netherized would not let him enter the nether. Netherized had been very strict on who entered the nether ever since Dark had created him. Netherized was a force to be reckoned with. Not due to his combat abilities but to that fact that he inflicted withering on people he attacked. There had been rumours though that Netherized was starting to become more and more relaxed as he started forging his sword. Dark knew that Netherized would not take kindly to him after he had been brought to life.

Dark decided he would create a being to stall Netherized. He took his jar of souls that he could use to create beings and his wither skulls. He would create a more powerful wither skeleton using three of their heads and a few souls. Dark walked to the nearest nether portal that was reasonably close and he stepped through.

Netherized was standing on the other side. “You should leave while you can.” He said in a tone that said he was not kidding. “I want to create sentient beings for the nether.” Dark said. Netherized looked at Dark with an expression that clearly said no. “Please” Dark pleaded. “I will not let you create more life in the nether Dark. You did enough harm creating me.” “I did not try to create you netherized. It was an accident.” “An accident is what I am afraid of.” Netherized said.

Dark said, “Then I have no choice but to fight you.” “I do not want more violence in my domain” Netherized said. Dark lunged at Netherized. Netherized dodged and punched Dark. Dark drank milk and placed sand in a T shape. Then he put a soul in each skull and put them all on top of the sand. There was a massive explosion. A floating rib cage with three skulls appeared. It was a wither.

Netherized lunged at the wither but the wither knocked Netherized away. Dark punched the wither but it did nothing. The wither flew away to live in the nether. “How could you” Netherized said. Dark hung his head in shame and went to go and kill the wither.

Dark ran through the nether. He needed to kill the monster he had unleashed. He stumbled, tripped, and fell. He knew that the monster he created would reak havoc.

Over the next few days Dark searched for the wither. He eventually found it and he was horrified at what he saw. He saw a massive area of the nether covered in what looked like sand. When he walked on it he sunk in slightly. Then the wither saw him. Dark attacked. Eventually Dark killed the wither and then it exploded and everything went dark.

## 1 Death - 0090

Dark was dead. He could not see, he could not hear but then SNAP. He was back. Then he saw a number in front of him. It changed from 100 to 99. Little did he know this was his life count. He felt odd. He had just died. How was he here? He needed answers. But who could he ask? He could ask Netherized but he doubted he would have an answer.

It hit him. He could ask Light Carnage. Light Carnage was another gatekeeper that Dark seldom spoke with. Light Carnage might not take kindly to Darks presence as Dark had made Netherized keep all Gatekeepers out of the Nether.

Dark got out of the bed he had come back to life in. He would go to light carnage.
