Editorial: Lamentation For The Silverhides

On the evening of Sunday, June 10th, at approximately 10 pm EST, the Silverhide clan fell while defending their ancestral fortress of Skyruler, against an imperial army led by Daniel Plainview. The only survivor of the attack was Daimyon Silverhide, who was sent away at the last minute, so that the tale of their heroic deaths would not be lost.

Skyruler fortress had held out against the rule of Daniel Plainview ever since his coronation as dictator and then god of the planet. Using secret Silverhide magics the location was kept secret, as a base of operations for the Silverhides and rebels, as well as one of the last safe locations for refugees anywhere on the planet Hellifyno.

The location of the fortress was discovered when the Silverhide clan leaders mate, Erica E-D60, was tricked into a one on one battle against regime general Alexander Equinox, who then used his powers to strip the information from her mind. Once the fortress was found, it only took Daniel Plainview a single day to muster his forces.

The army that Plainview gathered was enormous. Nearly a million creatures including demons, Tyroids, and vile monstrosities born of his mad experiments. They came upon the fortress like an endless storm, using advanced technologies and magics to break through every defense that the Silverhides mounted.


The Silverhides, along with allied Elves held out bravely against impossible odds. They made the regime pay in gallons of blood for every drop they spilled. The fighting was ruthless and savage, but in the end, every last Silverhide warrior fell by the sword.


Luckily, Titus Silverhide had been prepared for this. Before the attack he had all refugees evacuated from the fortress and sent to the safety of the Tavern shanty town, protected by the power of Wyrd. He also formed a plan with Tye Sampson, the leader of the rebels, to exploit the fact that Plainview would be concentrating on Skyruler that night.


So while Titus and the Silverhides fought and died, and Daniel Plainview's army bloodied themselves against the walls of Skyruler, the rebel forces streamed over the walls of Consequence, the capital city of the entire world. With most of the defenders drawn away to the battle against Skyruler, the rebels were easily able to over run their army, ad recapture the most important and powerful city on the planet.

But to achieve this victory, every Silverhide of warring age gave their lives, nobly, in the defense of freedom, and their home world. They battled against impossible odds, and though they fell, they did not fail. Their memory lives on, burning like a fire in the hearts of all those who love the planet Hellifyno.
