THE GOLDEN REX

[!] A mandate was spread around to the people of Krugmar and their allies. Those who dwell in San’Velku could find a statue of pure gold standing atop the throne. Upon closer inspection, it could be clearly recognized as Rex Zhot’Rax - holding up both of his arms to show off his massive biceps, a proud smile plastered upon his face. The orc would have remained proud and strong till the end.

 

Up until my duel with Rex Akila’Lur, the Orcs of Krugmar struggled for self-preservation. Krug’s children were on the brink of obscurity, his legacy fading to the winds. There were new Rexes every time I dared to blink. It was my destiny to put an end to that, and to restore honor to Krug’s name. I made it my duty to solve the major issues that plagued our nation, and to pave the path for my successor’s progress. With Ublulhar watching over me, it was impossible for me to fail.

 

Blood of Krug, and those who call themselves our allies: when you read this letter I will already have immortalized myself, coated in pure gold. I had a vision where I was visited by RAX himself, the greatest warrior known to date. He explained to me that I had completed my task, and that he was proud to finally call me blood of his own. He demanded a sacrifice greater than any other I made in his name; RAX wanted me to prove that I would truly give my life for Krugmar and its people.

 

Now it is time for my legacy to be solidified in gold. As long as Zhot’Rax carries the title of Rex, there shall be no war. As long as Zhot’Rax carries the title of Rex, the struggle for survival won’t continue. Rax summons me and I must answer his call for the greater good. Many of you might curse me, you might believe that I abandoned my people at the peak of our cultural growth. To that I say: “Without pressure, coal cannot morph into diamonds.”

 

Velkumezt smiled upon my Rexdom and blessed us with a new goi; with this single act, I gave hope to Krug’s blood for the first time in ages.

 

With the help of Coin’Clekta’Raguk, the goblin-guarded vaults were filled up once more, and just like that I made reality of what no Rex could do before me... prosperity, after years of poverty.

 

Other nations learned of the restoration of The War Nation of Krugmar, some the hard way. We gained faithful allies who I would've loved to die alongside. From the sidelines, we once again became a major player upon the realm’s stage.

 

The War Nation is in a position where it can bloom once more, but it will have to be without me.  Do not grieve, but cry out my name while continuing to bring honor to Krug’s legacy.

To Durak and Clan Ka’zul :

Spoiler

My most loyal allies, you have supported me for as long as I can remember. Without you the Rexdom would lay in shambles, the mines would be filled with cobwebs, and our people would be starving. Do you remember what I told you when you lived in that smelly cave? I told you that I wouldn’t forget about what you did for me... and here I am, making sure that my legacy will live on forever, and yours with it.

 

To Rex Heinrik of Haense :

Spoiler

One day our foreheads will meet again. I will not live to see the day where we can share a side on the battlefield, but if your blows hit as hard as your head, nothing will stand between you and victory.

 

To Rex Halvar of Norland : 

Spoiler

A shipment of Grubomanca’s soup is on its way to Varhelm for you to share with your people.

 

To My Tributaries : 

Spoiler

Consider yourself free of all the chains I put on you. You have been forgiven for your crimes in the past and we can go our own separate ways once more. If the next Rex wants you as their tributaries, they’ll have to fight you for it.

 

To Kor’Garr the Clanless :

Spoiler

I have little to no words for you; you know that I praise your craftsmanship with each breath I take. I demand that you continue to make me proud. Forge weapons that I would've carried into battle; quills with which I would have written history. I promise that when you call my name and demand guidance, you will not be left unanswered.

 

To Songs The Clanless : 

Spoiler

I trust you to tell the tales of the great Zhot’Rax. You praised me at every opportunity available and for that you have my genuine appreciation. We had a very strong connection and I know the future had something prepared for us, but Rax has a different plan for me. I cared about you more than you might think; it went further than just brotherly love, but the love for my country came first, and I could not allow myself to put our people at risk.

 

To Grubomanca’Rax :

Spoiler

Make sure that before Rax calls upon you, you spread your knowledge far and wide, for the world would be a different place without your grub.

 

To Munkizh’Gorkil :

Spoiler

When I was just out of the womb I told you that I would be the best warrior in our goi one day. Now, I will only tell you that I’ve told you so. Let my teachings guide you and push you to fill the gaping hole that I left in our society. Be it not as Rex, then let it be as the protector of our people.

 

To Gusiam : 

Spoiler

You did something that I could have never done before. As a kub I was always told that I could do anything... that with enough effort I could make anything happen. I set Krugmar up for prosperity... but without you, there wouldn’t be a bridge between the ancient dark elf shamans and the new generation of orcs. You will preach about our past, and it will be used as an example as to why it is important for our peoples to stick together.

 

REX ZHOT'RAX THE GOLDEN REX

FA 1782 - SA 19 (died age 33)

 

[GoodGuyMatt 7060]

Ser Brandt Barclay expects to see the rex at the gates of the seven skies

[_pr0fit 2944]

Vane cries, He wishes he was made of gold too

[AstriaS 3679]

The High Keeper looked baffled for about three seconds before sighing and tossing the missive to the wind. "Father, give me strength if this is about to turn into another four-Rexes-in-four-years ordeal."

 

Krelga let out a contemplative hum. "Da Rex wehnd agh turhn'd hizzelf intu uh gohlden ztatue? Dat'z preti zkahin' metal, azh myte blah."

[Crevel 4727]

Arthas Ruric would not smile the sun's smile.

[CaffeinatedCrow 153]

Songs looked upon the golden statue of the Rex, a smile on her face as she would hit her chest with the side of her fist. 

"May Deh zpiritz gyde lat Zhot. Agh may we peep eechothur ahgayn ihn Deh Zpirit Rehlm. Rezt eazy mi friend." A single tear rolled down her cheek as she sighed softly.

[EndCallCaesar 484]

Kaluz would hear the news and simply begin making a batch of blunts in Rex Zhotz name stating "The Rex be flat, long liv duh Rex!"

[Security_ 1073]

Barog sheds a tear for the Golden Statue that looked a lot like his favorite Rex. Preparing his klompin’ gear, the olog was ready to bring honor to the legend’s name.

[Arashiha 294]

Lunah paused in the streets of Elysium as the new was shouted by the town crier. Blinking a few times she let out a soft sigh muttering under her breath, "Now who will teach me about orc customs." she mumbles softly then blinks again, "And who will be the new Rex?"

[PrinceJose270 678]

Within the Ancient jungles of krug the ker rested his staff along his shrine of Kor. a soft bow following after he heard news of the rex's fall. though tears apparent, he had a glass of a very strong alcohol. and poured it onto the fire just bellow of the shrine in offering the flames roaring to life with such the strength of the drink. "Zhot, you yourself have turned the path to both Krugmar and it's allies from a ruinous path, My only regret is that I could not have a grand spar with you, to not be able to offer you the chance of a spirit walk to the land you now roam. But I am glad to help where i could, and proceed to do so in your honor. From orc and ker we may be different in race. But in stargûsh'stroh I can happily call you bruddah. I hope that in my next walk and those to come. That i see you in Krug's halls of eternal joy to share stories that can last eons! Goodbye my friend, and that I hope you smile down on Krugmar and the sanctum for an eternal prosper and i shall see you soon!"The ker shouted, his voice both booming and full of vigor as he raised the rest of the cup in the air before drinking the remain of the drink, though tears continued to fall for a lost friend. 

[christman 2216]

A small goblin kub pondered for a moment; her fingers going up to scratch her equally small chin. The snaggle tusk maw that adorned her face cracked into a wild grin as she digested the news. . .

 

"Mi wunt tu bi guhld wen mi flat tuu! Yub. . mi bi da skariizt ztatu tu ebar lib! . .  Err, ztand? Mi nub gruk duh tehrminholigi." Tor'Lur rattled off the cackling laugh she had gotten from her father, letting her hand drop to her side once more. Though her plans to become a horrifying statue was promptly pushed aside, as the kub returned to retrieving her lost snaga. . . for the fifth time.

 

[Willstertheking2 1101]

Levian'Tol Grandaxe smokes the fattest joint. "Ah fock...... 'ah doubt tis will be teh end ov all ov tis."

[Miss_Confined 271]

Brynaelda Grandaxe scurried through the house, juggling three gray children and loudly called, "DEAREST? Where'd we put uhm.. The smokes? Ye know, the smokes t'at Rex fella gave me? I think they're in the cabinet. Here, here. Ye take Okrikor, an' I will fetch 'em." Brynaelda passed off her chubbiest son to Grudgebeard, kissing each of them gingerly, before lighting the blunt and sitting it on the mantle respectfully. She coughed at the smoke a handful of times before mumbling, "I hope ye get lots of those uruk lassies ye were wooin', w'erever yer goin', friend."

1 hour ago, Arashiha said:

Lunah paused in the streets of Elysium as the new was shouted by the town crier. Blinking a few times she let out a soft sigh muttering under her breath, "Now who will teach me about orc customs." she mumbles softly then blinks again, "And who will be the new Rex?"

 

Eugeo, sighing gently as he receives the missive from his orcish friends and allies would sigh gently in turn. Mumbling a prayer in the soul of the deceased Rex in finding his soul cherished by the spirits. He would then glance to Lunah, informing her in turn. "Whomever it may be, Krugmar will be forever embodied by Rex Zhot’Rax contributions to his people and community. He will be missed, as he is, here in Elysium" 

[DAENGIE 468]

Halvar Edvardsson would be sitting in his office looking over the missive as it reached him, a thoughtful frown plaguing him all throughout the reading. This would change however as he read the message sent to him, causing his frown to bend into a smile then further into a laugh. The aging monarch would grab ahold of his ale mug and raise it in honor of the golden rex, drinking down it down then after in his memory. "Safe travels on yer after journey friend."
