Durriken sat at a small table in Ninth Heaven with books all around him. He got them all from the library when he asked for any books about powers used in the dark arts. She gave him a large number to say the least. After getting him up to Ninth Heaven he pulled out his “Wheel of Fortune” card once more. It would give him an edge to know which element the Dark Knight would use, so he could study up on it. When he called upon his power, oddly, the card did not move as it usually would, North for Water, South for Fire, East for Earth, and West of Air, it stood still. From his deck a second card rose, this one, “Death” and went with the Wheel. Perplexed he decided to look in the books for any reference to Death. He found it in an old volume of powers that people could control.
...most arcane scholars do not know the vagaries of Darkness nor its origin, though, those who seek the roots of all know the secret arts of Death. Death is not magic, there are no words to express it. Death is a power, a power that takes a toll on the body as well as the mind when used...
...this Power is from the most ancient of times, and used by races who have died off long ago. Death itself is something not vaguely used. This "power" can commit the most morbid of actions beyond your wildest dreams...
...however, there are separate Death spells though none are more powerful than the strength of Niram'hiru. In fact, Death is very versatile, but be wary of its use for the more power you use, the more years are taken off your life...
Durriken read the book with awe. So this is what his cards wanted to tell him. This person could call upon the force of death himself. Pure power that would be near unstoppable by Durriken’s cards. Pulling another book he read more about the subject.
Though Death is one of the strongest forces on the planet. There are several things that can stop it. Many are from the Immortal creatures. One said item would be the scales from a Black Dragon. Its scales will ward off a small amount of Death energy.
This small passage brought Durriken’s hopes up. If he could get some scales he could probably attach them to his shield cards and give them the ability to hold of ‘Death.’ His shield cards were normally aligned with the mortal elements of magic, so they would have almost no chance against the power the Dark Knight held, but, with the scales, he should be able to do it.
