The Fall of the Ruin: A Demon’s Wrath
In the vast and untamed world, where ancient forces clash and mighty empires rise and fall, there was one place that even the bravest adventurers dared not tread—a crumbling fortress of forgotten power, locked deep in the heart of a barren wasteland. Its walls, steeped in eldritch magic, had withstood centuries of siege and conflict, its once-glorious halls now occupied only by the vengeful remnants of the dark forces it had housed.
For many, the Ruin was a symbol of defeat, a place where countless armies had marched, only to be consumed by traps, illusions, and unspeakable horrors. It had been a long-standing fixture in the world—a beacon of death to those who were foolish enough to challenge its defenses.

But that was before the demonic forces arrived.
The Summoning
It began in the deepest hells, where the demon lords convened in their burning citadels, plotting new conquests to expand their dominion. Their eyes turned to the Ruin, its dark powers drawing their interest. The demons had long been masters of destruction, and they saw the Ruin as an opportunity to seize power over the forgotten magics that lay dormant within its crumbling walls.
One of the demon lords, a powerful warlord of the infernal realms, commanded his generals to prepare the forces for an invasion. His army would be the harbinger of death for those who still clung to hope.
A vast portal was opened in the underworld, its fiery maw ripping through the very fabric of reality. From its depths, the demonic legions poured forth—horrific, bloodthirsty creatures with glowing red eyes, their sharp claws and barbed tails gleaming in the infernal light. The ground trembled as they marched, the air itself growing heavier with the scent of sulfur and brimstone.
The March to the Ruin
As the demon forces advanced, the world trembled. The legions moved quickly across the desolate lands, leaving nothing but scorched earth in their wake. The undead guardians of the Ruin had no chance against the overwhelming force of the demons. The legions tore through them like a firestorm, their fiery weapons incinerating the last vestiges of resistance.

With each fallen guardian, the Ruin’s dark secrets began to awaken, calling out to the invaders, offering them forbidden knowledge in exchange for their allegiance. But the demons had no need for promises or ancient powers; their lust for destruction was their only goal.
By the time the demons reached the outer walls of the Ruin, the air was thick with the acrid stench of blood and fire. The towering spires of the fortress reached into the blackened sky, but they were nothing compared to the fury of the infernal legions.
“We shall see if these ancient walls can withstand the heat of hell itself,” the demon lord muttered to himself.
The Siege
The demons wasted no time. The ground cracked open as their siege engines—giant war machines powered by the very essence of the infernal realms—began to unleash hellfire upon the walls. Each strike from the massive trebuchets sent tremors through the earth, cracking stone and sending dust and debris into the air.
Inside the Ruin, the last defenders—mortals, cursed spirits, and remnants of long-dead warriors—gathered in a final, futile defense. The ancient magics of the fortress flared in a desperate attempt to repel the invaders. Arcane energy crackled through the air as the undead sorcerers summoned dark shields and summoned minions to fight for their doomed cause.
But the demons were relentless.
The warlord, wielding his sword of burning brimstone, led the charge against the gates of the Ruin. His forces surged forward, tearing apart the last line of defense. Demonic horrors surged through the broken walls, their fiery talons slashing through the ruins, leaving nothing but ashes and shattered bones in their wake.
The Fall of the Ruin
With a final roar, the demon forces breached the inner sanctum of the Ruin, where the last remnants of the ancient power lay hidden. The heart of the Ruin, a pulsing, cursed crystal embedded in the ground, glowed with dark magic. But before the defenders could muster one final strike, the demon lord raised his sword high, and the crystal shattered with a deafening explosion of infernal energy.
The world seemed to hold its breath as the Ruin collapsed in on itself, consumed by fire and darkness. The air turned to smoke, and the very land seemed to buckle beneath the weight of the destruction. The demons had triumphed, the Ruin's ancient power now theirs to command.
The demon forces raised their weapons in victory, the sky above them filled with the scent of burning embers and sulfur.
"Let the world tremble," the warlord declared, his voice booming like thunder. "The infernal realms have returned, and none shall stand in our way."

And so, the Ruin was no more—its secrets lost to the flames, its legacy of destruction now in the hands of the demons. The demons' reign had begun, and the world would never be the same.
