Thank You for the votes. This story is just that, a story, however much is based on historical fact, some legends, current myths and my own supposition. It is or soon will be an open universe so feel free to add to it. This story will tell of Rasney and the thing, whatever it is a bit longer as he battles,(Ha, decimates really) her foes. It had been summoned before and even though Rasney did not get all the words and the ritual exactly right, it was like horseshoes and hand grenades, close enough. She was cute too, even a thing could see that. After all, if it had a heart, her sacrifice and fervor was commendable, even if she used Avenge rather than revenge.
After Rasney, we will tell the story that many do not care to hear. How Xinn Lo Ha, gained then lost the power of an Empire.
A Revenant is always a Demon and can look like most any real or mythical being. It was first documented in the city of Thebes, formerly Wasat, later stories were told that it came to Earth from another world, summoned here by Sorcery. The actual form is as varied as pigs in a poke, but they all are demons. You know what those are, right. I'll spell that big word out for one of you. D E M O N S Can you count that out, slowly now, one more time.
Seriously, all that is right there in books,(If you read Sumerian) or on the Internet, type R E V E N A N T(One word, no Spaces) in your search engine. You will find that outside of actually facing one, in the flesh, they can take many forms and majority of pain and suffering will be in your mind. The higher the IQ the more damage. One of you need not worry, IQ needs to be 32 or over so your safe, for now.
Thanks for reading, by the way, one of those poets was S. T. Coleridge, but Hell, that was long after Rasney.
