FIRST CONQUEST | VIDEO | UN: KINGOFCONQUERORS

[conquester]

 [A thunderous roar of laughter is all that can be heard from the recording device set up somewhere across from the couch in his appointed apartment, Iskandar out of view for the time being ready to make his grand entrance upon the network.]

 

Greetings citizens of Lunatia it is I, Iskandar, King of Conquerors here on this most auspicious of days!

 

[Sashaying into the feed now the burly king is seen wearing his signature attire though an extremely noticeable difference will be blatantly obvious on this day, first eve of the Sanguis moonlight. Elongated, curled horns of an obsidian color protrude from Rider's forehead, plopping himself down unceremoniously on the couch. 

Poking one of the tips of said horns playfully with a devious grin, Iskandar looks toward the feed with a renewed vigor, Chroma exuding from him radiantly due to the effects of his transformation.]

 

Now this is power unlike any other I have felt in both life and death as a heroic spirit!

 

[A burst of laughter bellowing out in his proclamation, grin fiendishly plastered over his features. Sprawling out more comfortably on the couch as if a dragon would racked over its horde of treasures, Rider made himself more comfortable as he addressed the masses.]

{OOC: Hey all! This is backdated to the first night of the Sanguis moon. DRAGANDAR MODE ENGAGED!}

I would never think to destroy one's culture but rather embrace my defeated enemies as brothers in arms and absorb them into my fold!

[A wicked grin forms over his lips, chuckling modestly once more with a bold nod.]

From Macedonia to the furthest reaches of Asia leading all the way to the jungles of India! My lands reach beyond that of any others and for that I am the one, true King of Conquerors!

Action!

[conquester]

Indeed! I shall meet you at the acquired destination, Titus! I shan't be long.

[After taking a moment to better identify the location in question sent to him via the handheld device, Iskandar uses the abilities of his Noble Phantasm, Gordius Wheel to fly across the sky to land mere feet from Titus' standing in front of this 'BevMoon'.]

Hail, Titus! It is I, Iskandar, King of Conquerors!

[wearingguess]

[ titus is...
astonished

(but in a good way) ]

Hail, Iskandar!! Wow, amazing!! Do the chariot and oxen both fly, or only the oxen? They are so majestic!! May I pet them?? —Also, may I give them baklava, or is that unhealthy for oxen?

Action!

[conquester]

I shall not disappoint you this is my solemn vow, Shar!

[Grin wide from ear to ear with intrigue as he receives the location in question. A beach? Riveting! Though it would not be the first time he's done battle in the sand Rider was sure this would be met with far less bloodshed and violence.

Hastily Iskandar made his way to the spot along the beach provided by Shar, a hidden spot covered by a treeline as to not arouse suspicions or curious onlookers alike.]

Greetings, Shar!

I hope you are ready for this glorious battle, I must reiterate that I will not hold back on you as promised.

Unusual. Typically conquerers seek to amalgamate the conquered so they can shapen the world into their own ideal?

[It was more common in that regard, the strong overtaking the weak and repurposing the weak to suit their needs, he's skeptical.]

You'll have to forgive me [Dorian began raising an eyebrow] though I'm sure it is an impressive empire, I've no idea where any of those places are.

[galatining]

Thorough, huh?

[This has escalated much faster than anticipated. Not that he can complain. In fact he's feeling estatic.]

I have the endurance to handle it, you need not fear.

[subjugate]

Of course. Why summon me here if not for my wise and inspirational leadership to guide the wayward Prismals forward on their evolution?

[ He recognizes a cry for help when he sees one. Never mind that they literally asked him for his help when he arrived. ]

As though I would greet you with anything but the finest of wines! A guest of mine will be treated well, royal or not. You will find yourself unwilling to leave my chambers after you have been pampered well by my servant.

[soulburningfights]

[Oh? Another blessed Sangius! A bit small, but hey!]

I'll play with you little pup.

[Says the dragon-looking girl.]

[conquester]

Well put my newfound friend! I have absorbed my conquered foes armies and turned them into allies of my glorious empire!

[Dividing and conquering was in his bloodline having followed in his father's footsteps though his accomplishments far out shined that of his predecessor. A chuckle falls from parted lips as Alibaba tries to grasp what exactly a 'Heroic Spirit' entails, shaking head as he crossed his arms half amusedly.]

I shall have to introduce you! Though he is far less charismatic than I assure you! A Heroic Spirit is one who is summoned by a master to serve and protect in the Grail Wars. It is a taxing affair to explain over this device, a conversation better suited for my young master, Waver Velvet.

[flamebearer]

[ Alibaba blinks in surprise for a moment. And then in sudden interest. ] Wait, you are summoned to serve and protect someone in a great war?

[ That sounds... suspiciously like what they do with their Djinn? ]

Your master... did he have to prove himself worthy to do it?

[conquester]

I am unlike any ruler set out before me, for I, Iskandar, King of Conquerors ruled over my subjects with divine grace and equivalence no matter their race or religion!

[Unlike that of his predecessors Iskandar thought to reign over his vast empires by bestowing the lands conquered back to their rightful people to make of them allies in his noble conquest to rule the known world.]

Truly? That is a veritable shame! And what lands do you hail from stranger?

[conquester]

[Now you are truly tempting him, a devious grin from ear to ear returning with a cross of his arms amusedly.]

You have but to reveal your station and I shall make haste to remedy our ever growing desires.

[Your move, Gawain!]

[conquester]

Perhaps to better serve the one true King of Conquerors in his noble quest to rule over this strange new land beloved by all!

[Laughing hysterically at the very notion of the King of Kings as his retainer, serving Rider in his efforts to divide and conquer this world.]

A servant here? Truly you are the King of Kings, Ozymandias! I would very much enjoy such a gathering betwixt two esteemed rulers, we shall drink and laugh until our hearts content!

[demifin]

[Sorry he's not in the mood for THAT type of battle but the smile he gives him has a bit of an understanding to it.]

It's okay. I can understand that...I hope you get what you are looking.

[demifin]

[Excuse you just because he is 5'10" doesn't make him small whoever you are. She seems interesting. Little pup huh?]

Sure. Do you have a place in mind?

[galatining]

How could I ever say no to such generosity?

[He quickly glances around until he's satisfied that Gwenhwyfar hasn't some how just curled up asleep in some random corner before sending him an address.]

[liberaltus]

I'll grant you that, but conquering suggests you did go in with military force to trounce and annex, that's what conquering is, yes? Not that it's a problem, that's half of history: someone shows up, tears the place apart, declares himself king.

[It's practical to look at history in this light anyway.]

The Tevinter Imperium, my ancestors were conquerors as well and they rather mucked things up a bit.

[conquester]

[Dismounting from the Gordius Wheel, Iskandar grins wide from ear to ear as he moves to pat one of the divine bull's on the back before turning attention back towards Titus.]

The Gordius wheel and oxen are both capable of flight such is the esteem of my Noble Phantasm!

[In regards to the question puzzled about feeding said oxen the King of Conquerors cannot help but chuckle modestly as he nods solemnly.]

Of course! They will thoroughly enjoy the hearty meal most assuredly, feed them at your hearts content, Titus!

[conquester]

[Iskandar simply nods in regard to the first question.]

Indeed, the fourth Holy Grail War which took place in the city of Fuyuki.

[Though to the latter a brow is cocked, stroking chin thoughtfully for a moment before merely shrugging somewhat.]

In a manner of fashion I suppose the boy has proven himself worthy of my noble esteem, but I have always believed in my young master.

Anyone capable of summoning the King of Conquerors must be strong willed with a relentless passion for victory in turn!

[subjugate]

Are you suggesting my purpose is to help you achieve glory and not myself? Have you not used my name and the name of my gods enough time to further your ambitions?

[ It is obvious who should be serving who out of the two of them. Iskandar owes him quite a lot. ]

No, you will learn as you always have and every king who followed. By my example. Come experience your first true taste of royal hospitality for you will find no one more hospitable than I!

[wearingguess]

[ titus is already leaning against and petting the one closer to him... which iskandar didn't technically say he could, but he definitely never said he couldn't. without taking his eyes off the heavenly bull's face, he fishes around in his pocket and withdraws a small paper-wrapped package, which he carefully unwraps one-handed (like he's going to stop petting!!) and then holds up to the bull's snout. ]

There you go...
My goodness, you're so amazing... you're enormous! I'm so glad I got to meet you!

[ ...he's talking to the bull, but he could just as easily address this to iskandar himself. ]

ACTION! I returnnnnnn

[conquester]

[Once the whereabouts of Gawain's location was revealed to the King of Conquerors he made short work to sashay out the door with a pep in his step. Bedding yet another knight of the round would be quite a feat indeed, starting a collection of sorts seemingly!

A wicked grin forms over his features in wild amusement as the dragon finds himself upon the others doorstep now, promptly knocking loud enough for Gawain to hear without question. He was just a little impatient thanks in part to the transformation at hand, yearning for his counterpart's whimsical touch, sculpted muscle pressed to one another's own as wanton moans echoed through the household.]

\o/

[galatining]

[It's a short wait, which is perhaps fortunate, so that his eagerness doesn't turn to frustration.

Instead Iskander is there looking delightfully eager and... huge. More so than Gawain remembers.]

My my, don't tell me you just rushed over like that. Such a thing will give me a big head.

[He jokes as he steps aside to let him in, eyeing him as he does.]

so late expect a parade ;;

[soulburningfights]

[That was her intention, while spectators are quite alright, it would be troublesome if one was in the way of their duel.

She wore her armor this time, felt it was needed. Rider was a giant, taller than most Roegadyns from her world. You know what they say, bigger they are, the better...

Shar's armor was dark with some hint of red. The axe strapped on her back was black and had some dark stones embedded on the head, her pride weapon. She rotated one shoulder, and then the other while her face beamed with excitement. How long she wanted this combat. Shar had faced many foes, from legends to monsters then false gods, she would gladly take on the challenge.]

Aye, I am. [A solemn nod as she tilted her head back lightly.] This realm was beginning to bore me. So please, strike me as if I am your enemy and obstacle as I will.

For I am Shar! [She roared her name, grinning once more until her teeth bared fangs, ember eyes lit with excitement.] Daughter of Nhaama! Sister of Dothals!

Eikon Slayer. [She talked softly in the end, audible enough to reach his ears, confident. Slowly, she reached her hand behind her neck, retrieving her blade.]

Conqueror, show me. Show me your soul burning its brightest!

Gosh I suck sorry about the lateness on this. ;;

[conquester]

[Gawain is no slouch himself to be sure, a mammoth of a man in turn, one of the many reasons the King of Conqueror's admired him so. A delighted grin quickly forms over his lips when provoked by the knight's sentiment, chuckling as the dragon closes what little distance was between them now.]

Is that not the point of this endeavor, Sir Gawain?

[Digits moving whimsically to brush thick tendrils of Gawain's golden locks behind an ear, intimately holding the other's chin in the palm of his hand.]
