Editing Legion of Everblight (section)

==Pride goeth before the fall, also [[Elf]] Armies==
All good things must come to an end, because the narrative demands it.

In time, Everblight's influence grew steadily over the kingdom of Morrdh, and he became ever more brazen.  This culminated in sending dragonspawn to openly assassinate several lords who had displeased him (in the middle of their own armies, no less), and was probably a poor idea even assuming that one of Toruk's servants hadn't spotted the act and tattled to the Dragonfather.  Toruk sent one of his vassals to the Lords of Morrdh to deliver an ultimatum: give up Everblight or [[Exterminatus|be destroyed]].

Everblight barely survived the subsequent betrayal and his father's wrath, escaping only because he [[troll|led Toruk to the lair of one of his siblings]], [[Just As Planned|finding a place to hide while his father fought with and consumed the unwitting fall <s>guy</s> dragon]].  Everblight had survived, but the terrible wounds he suffered would take centuries to heal as he hid from the world.

Meanwhile--deprived of the strength of its greatest ally--[[Grimdark|Morrdh fell into ruin as its vengeful neighbors turned upon it.]]  Also around this time it occurred to the other surviving dragons that there were a lot more of them than there were of Toruk, and they called a truce and banded together to drive the Dragonfather from the mainland.  Toruk--overwhelmed and probably unable to comprehend the fact that his children had actually put aside their animosity to get shit done--retreated after a lengthy stalemate.  While some believed Toruk to be defeated, Everblight had an idea about [[Cryx|what the fuck was coming]], and knew that he would need to be prepared.

And so, Everblight went to Ios to hang out with the elves, although it wasn't so much "hang out" as it was "watch your society fall into despair as it comes to grip with the death of its gods, decide to become your god to fill the void, experiment on your race like a middle schooler dissects frogs, and maybe consume your last living god to see if I can eat her power too."  This went well enough until one of his science experiments got loose, spreading panic and bringing the entire military might of Ios down on his head: the ensuing battle resulted in the near-total destruction of the city of Issyrah and the loss of an entire generation of Iosan troops, but in the end Everblight's body was destroyed and his athanc torn loose.  For Ios, this was yet another great tragedy that marked the slow decline of their race: for the other dragons this was evidence that Everblight was <B>"THE BIGGEST BITCH PUSSY THAT EVER HAD THE CAJONES TO THINK TO CALL ITSELF A DRAGON."</B>
