We were the first to swear fealty to the newborn Empire, and my forefather the Elf-Bane was the one who led it's armies across the continent. That means our claim to the throne, was second only to two. The family of the late Emperor Vito, and the kin of that bitch Kurenai.

Unfortunately, we supported Vito's father before he was overthrown by the False Emperor. As such my family was slain, and my home besieged. My lover's Stigma flared up after she saw what had become of her family. She burnt half my face off, with the fire she started. I swore revenge, but groveled before the False Emperor for years, nursing my strength, letting the tyranny, and cruelty of both he, and his sons turn most of the Empire against him.

Ten years passed, and Vito came to me, clad as a beggar, an exile within the realm he loved so much. Then, I raised the flag of revolt, and three quarters of the Empire's nobility flocked to my banner. I laid waste, massacring every last noble family who refused my summons. When we reached the imperial City, the False Emperor had no troops left save the garrison. Who opened the gates, rather than face my fury. I tortured the 'Emperor' to death, cutting his limbs off joint, by joint. First castrating him, and then cutting off his ears, nose, lips, and gouging his eyes out. I made sure the last things he saw, was his sons being set alight.

When that was done, I killed all the servants that refused to repent. Let my men throw his youngest son out a window to be dashed against the cobblestones below, and gave them his wife, and younger daughter as a present. The eldest, I considered torturing until she was broken, and I tried that... unfortunately, she was a Stigma."

He smiles, a hideous smile, as if reliving it in his mind. "Do you wish to hear about after Vito was emperor?
