Chapter Twelve - Raziel Defies The Elder
Raziel revisits the subterranean Pillars grotto after having been propelled over a century into Nosgoth’s ghastly future. He is shocked to discover how the Elder God has encroached into the chamber - its tentacles wind chokingly around the shattered Pillars, and the room’s murals have been nearly obliterated by the passage of its grasping limbs.
The Elder God greets Raziel disdainfully -Elder God:
Raziel, the failed assassin.
You had Kain at your mercy but lacked the courage to fulfill the act.
And now you see the wasteland wrought by the tyrant’s hand. By his selfish decision to preserve his own life, even when it meant sacrificing the whole world.
This is the fate of Nosgoth, as long as Kain remains alive.Raziel:
An ironic condemnation, given this guilty scene.
One would think you’d torn down the Pillars single-handedly.
What are you trying to obliterate as you drag your loathsome body through this chamber?
And why, as Nosgoth descends into madness and misery, do you appear to thrive?
Things in this world, I am learning, are rarely what they seem.
You, apparently, are no exception.Elder God: (angrily)
I am the Engine of Life, the source of Nosgoth’s very existence.
I am the hub of the Wheel, the origin of all Life, the devourer of Death.Raziel:
… or maybe you’re just hungry - could it be as simple as that?
Wouldn’t that be poetic irony? The great adversary of the vampires turns out to be the biggest parasite of them all.Elder God:
Do not test my patience, Raziel.
I made you, and I will unmake you if I become so inclined.Raziel: (mocking)
As your agent, I am beyond death.Elder God:
There are fates worse than death, Raziel.Raziel responds with disgust -
Raziel:
Oh, I see you now as you truly are.
A cancer - a spooling parasite burrowed deep in the heart of this world.Elder God: (ominously)
Go now.
Play out your pitiful rebellion, and take your place among the destroyed, the used and the damned.
But know this - you are mine for eternity.
You have always been, and will always be, my soul reaver…(Transcript by http://www.dark-chronicle.co.uk/sr2/script/script11.php)
