User:Melean/Morpheus



Morpheus is a massive fortress built by Dwarven architects of Khaz Modan in a isle slowly off the coast of Kul Tiras, many other races live there, Elves, Human, Dwarves, they all formed an alliance fourteen years ago before the First War and to search for this isle they only heard by legend, when they found it they built a fortress after Lord Dale I led the army of Lordareon with the Paladins of Azeroth (Lost Paladins) and Elves to attack the Murloc and Mur'Gul empires resided there.

After defeating them they began constructing of the fortress Morpheus which would later become a well known large alliance power very dedicated into upholding the Alliance in the world.

Finding
Not that far off from Kul Tiras to the west, lies two closly joined isles with the name of Kalast, fourteen years ago before the First War, ships of Kul Tiras carried soldiers of Lordareon, Paladins of Azeroth, Crewmen of Kul Tiras, archers and siege from Quel'Thalas, Mages of Dalaran and the architects of Khaz Modan landed on the largest shores of Kalast, while the Kul Tiras ships landed on the isle that shall soon be the mighty port side island of Jul'Dare.

When they finished settling on the newly charted island, they discovered a rather large fortifications of Murloc and Murgul Empires. Against even the smallest of racial difference the Murloc and Murgul's waged war with one another, the combined nations were smaller than the two empires but with the constant fighting they were able to triumph with the great leader Lord Dale I of the first lost paladins of Azeroth, and after chasing the remnants of the empires off they began to construct a fortress there. A year later the mighty fortress Morpheus was finally built. Its beauty was short lived..

Vengeful after losing both their armies, a mere Murloc named Gluukus formed an alliance between the murlocs and murguls and for taking revenge they destroyed the ports on Jul'Dare and the coasts of Morpheus, they were trapped on the isles which made them lose contact in the Eastern Kingdoms... they were stuck on Kalast...

Destruction
Over the years Morpheus stayed the same.

but one year before the First War, a great paladin Melean at the age of 17 was in for training, when he battled the Bandit "Empire" he chased the remnants to a trench battlefield, after defeating their emperor for good, he discovered a tower - a tower of tremense evil but was curious to know what it was, he ventured up the tower and discovered green skin creatures (Orcs) he fought his way up until he met a demon named Daxxlj he tried to battle but Daxxlj quickly grabbed Melean and infected Melean with an artifact known as the Trinities Blood of Daxxlj Roxxak and Corium. Melean began to slowly change from his human form, he then quickly becoming evil he went home to Morpheus to search for his father. At midnight he found his father pratolling the street, he ran up to Kreal and Kreal didnt recognize Melean with the cloak on, Melean quickly drew his blade and the two battled, but in the end Melean killed Kreal, in Kreal's last few moments Melean told to his father seconds before Kreal's death. "Father, in one month - Morpheus will be burned to the ground!", just like Melean said he was true to his word, a month later that event he raised an army of 2 million troops, a navy of near 1 million ships, siege of 200 thousand ballistas, demolishers and catapults put together.

From what was a beatiful day that made children run around and play turned into a day of darkness, death and despair. Melean fired his siege and blocked the sky and when plummeting to the Morpheus' wall it tore it apart and brick and rock flew everywhere, scaring the civilians and alerting the army. But when the wall was finally destroyed the army led by General Grollok charged into the fray and the troops dragged a rather large battering ram and smashed the door down, catching the army off guard which gave Melean a rather large drastic advantage. The siege kept destroying the wall and structures as the army ran rampant throughout the fortress. General Grollok made another large cry in Orc tongue and at the back of Morpheus what seemed like a earthquake was rather near 100 corrupted Orges bashing at the wall which due to Melean's corruption changed the orges size and strength.

Morpheus' army was large but could not even compare to the size of Melean's army which still fought valiantly even with such odds. But in the end Melean's stronger, brutal army slaughtered them. They sacked all they cood and pillaged the farms, charged through every barracks and place they could, no where you were in Morpheus were you safe.

When night came around the army was still fighting and with some reinforcements from the outpost of Jul'Dare which was only so little it did no good, the army was still unstoppable. Morpheus caught flame as soon the catapults and demolishers were soon lit their rocks on fire before shot, Morpheus became nothing but a large candle. But the siege wasnt over as legions of archers picked off Melean's soldiers but then one by one they were either eliminated by Melean's assassins or the siege weapons. Finally though the siege weapons of Morpheus were ready and began to fire at Melean's siege weapons, only a few catapults were destroyed as soon a giant black figure appeared out of the sky, a giant black dragon by the name of Sirithil  and blew so much fire onto the tower defences of Morpheus that you couldnt see where the towers stood.

General Malan another prodigy of Lord General Kreal.. son of Lord Dale I getting vengeful after Melean killed his trainer who treated Malan like a son, wanted to get back at Melean so bad but still put his duty as the King's body guard first that he took all elite soldiers into the Throne Room, but while they waited for the intruders, Malan channeled some of the holiest ressurection powers imaginable. He was able to rekindle the spirits of the fallen souls in the statues especially the one of Lord Dale I of the Lost Paladins of Azeroth. The priests would take a little piece of their spirit and put it in a statue in their honor. But even with the fallen ones aid it wouldnt do much. Melean had more power than all of the paladins and more power than half the Demons in the Burning Legion.

Melean destroyed all the statues except for one, the fallen statue of Lord Dale I, Lord Dale I alone destroyed half of the orges and threw a bunch of the troops into the fire. But Sirithil made Lord Dale's end. Sirithil was grabbed by the throat and Lord Dale stuck his sword down the throat in Sirithil, but Lord Dale didnt survive the fight, when Sirithil of such fire exploded after his death, Lord Dale was blew apart and defeated along with the entrance blow sky high into Morpheus. The army kept going on forward against the remaining troops of Morpheus.

Melean finally entered Morpheus and made his way with his elite guards to the Kings Throne Room, and after he bashed the door down he made his way down the hall as his elite guards fought the remaining guards of the King. Malan cursed Melean for his betrayel and engaged in an one on one duel between each other. The battle ensued of not just blade to blade but to magic to magic. When Melean finally got Malan into a corner, out of the palm of his hand a large sphere like blade came out as he ran it into Malan's chest, once in Malan fire enimated from the blade as it burned his internal organs and as Malan slowly died away... Melean laughed at him. Now Melean challenged King Halad but it was ended real quick, the King was killed by Melean and chopped his head clean off.

Melean went to the top of the highest pillar in Morpheus yelled out to the remaining citizens and soldiers with King Halad's head raised up high - "Citizens of Morpheus I give you this ample oppurtinity to surrender, lay down your weapons and join my army!" the soldiers and citizens keeping their honor declined and continue to fight. Melean spoke again "So be it, know this that your entire tradition of Morpheus will end! Darkness has claimed the fortress of Morpheus!" (Similar to the speech Arthas gave to the remaining citizens of Silvermoon) he then dropped the head of King Halad and walked down. The army retreated leaving the wounded and alive to stand and wait except for a few to retreat to the mountains.

Melean gave the order for one last fire of the siege at once. When this happened, the fortress of Morpheus was no longer a fortress but instead just a heaping pile of rubble to stand there and serve as a reminder that no one shall challenge Melean and live to see tomorrow. And at the end of the night and as dawn broke out Melean moved in to make his home at the ruined city of Morpheus.

When finding that Morpheus was destroyed the Morpheus navy was sent to the coast to lend aid but Melean's navy stood their waiting for their arrival and in one large naval battle the entire navy of Morpheus was completley decimated. All that the people of Morpheus controlled was the small island of Jul'Dare.

Rebuilding
Morpheus a year after the First War was still in rubble but a new army known as The Resistance challenged Melean's power. Their army grew large over the years and they sent a scout to enlsit the aid of Kul Tiras in so they sent their entire navy against this known large evil power. They crushed most of Melean's navy but the navy still force Kul Tiras to retreat, instead of doing so they stood and fought until they had only two or three ships left they retreated which made Melean follow them into a trap, the true part of the Kul Tiras navy was waiting for them, and ended up slaughtering Melean's entire navy.

With the death of King Halad and after the navy of Kul Tiras lent its aid, they built a water keep known as Haladian in honor of their old friend that helped Kul Tiras even in the dark times of Melean. But Melean attacked the keep and took it from Kul Tiras, but after Melean's navy used it as a staging point they followed Kul Tiras' ships as they retreated and fell into the trap, Haladian was abandoned and Kul Tiras after destroyed Melean's navy they took it back.

A large gryphon scout patrol estimating to 150 gryphon riders from Aerie Peak came also to help the Resistance.

The time for The Resistance has come...

On the opening of the mountain the army stood waiting for the right moment to charge. General Sessh a secret elf son to Melean's deceased mother Melinda gave the order to charge, gryphons flew out of the mountain and charged into the air and the army followed towards the blown out gate. When Melean saw they were coming he prepared the defences, with some of the Great Black Dragon Sirithil's younglings, and large wooden spikes sticking out of the ground on the entrance, the army stood their ground at the entrance of Morpheus.

When they finally engaged in a full out war a unknown knight appeared out from the mountains and from what they say a legend or the incarnation of Lord Dale I. The Holy Knight charged into battle with The Resistance, he rode his way into the Throne Room to encounter Melean, the two waged battle for an hour. They were both tied in blade to blade and magic to magic. The winner was undetermined until the final moment when the Holy Knight grabbed Melean's blade and hit him straight in the nose, with a small but powerful holy incantation in his own blade, he stabbed Melean. Melean became to go crazy with his near death, the woman he loved Christenee ran to see what happened as she was in horror to see Melean begin to die, or so they thought...

Melean's two forms became to become seperate, the human side raged war inside again with the demon side. The holy kngiht got a rope and as they dark part of Melean was being ripped off the knight through the rope at Melean's human form and pulled him away and freed the true Melean from the dark coma he was in.

When Melean was free a parasite stood in front of them, the dark side of Melean, with fire for eyes, blades for finger nails, a blade between his middle two knuckes and spikes appearing everywhere from waist up and fire for hair. Melean challenged the dark side of him and with so much power in the light he was able to push him back while the Holy Knight chained him to the wall and Melean stabbed him ending the parasites life the battle ended abruptly.

The humans and orcs corrupted by Melean slowly were un-corrupted. The damned souls vanished and the corpses just fell apart without their true master. The only part that remaied a war was the orcs continuing to fight the larger army. Large footsteps banged the ground and earthquakes were formed and the ground cracked, as the mighty Demon Daxxlj appeared. He challenged Melean alone for this betrayel. Melean agreed to the challenge, the battle was long and hard, especially against a demon of such power, but Melean was more aware and after being corrupted he had the mind of Daxxlj and knew his ways. Melean went straight for the demons legs, a demon such as a Doom Guard is weaker in the legs since their so thin. After Daxxlj fell to the ground from his legs being hacked, Melean stabbed him in the eyes and corrupted Daxxlj with healing powers which hit Daxxlj's tiny brain, which in turn destroyed the darkness and made his brain implode with all the power going in his head. Daxxlj made a final roar and spit fire at Melean but it did no good... Daxxlj was put to rest and the curse was broken. The Dark Times of Melean were now over...

They finally began to rebuild Morpheus, the Holy Knight stayed with Melean to teach him about power, honor, valor and magic. They promised to rebuild Morpheus to new standards, they erected it to be a reminder of the power that hit the land, and the greed and honor there is in the human race. Melean was that sole reminder with now the nickname of... Melean - The Redeemed Knight of Morpheus. Who became the military general, sponsor for Morpheus with the Holy Knight at his side as a tutor... Morpheus would grow into once again a known power for the Human race... but this time keep in touch with their other countries.

Wars
During the Second War they were fully rebuilt and helped the alliance secretly but tried to remain neutrality until when fighting orcs, Melean's garrison is all defeated until Lothar and a battallion of Knights saves Melean, Melean honored by Lord Lothar's actions fully joins the Alliance for Morpheus.

In the Third War they pull out of the war like the Gnomes did because of naga, murloc and murguls returning and attacking Morpheus along with remnants of the Bandit "Empire". They send little aid secretly but none are sent to aid Jaina because of naga attacking ships. They havent been touched by the Legion like Kul Tiras, they are still a strong power it just the recent attacks spread their army and navy thin.

Of course they wont be introduced in WOW because its not a real place its a fan-fictional place. It seems real. Its a campaign I am creating so contact me and I'll be finished soon.

If it was introduced in WOW (hypothetical) it would be a alliance territory, Melean as supreme general, Holy Knight as General of Morpheus' defence, and Prince Sessh as ruler of Morpheus. And a raid dungeon of a 15-20 raid team at the Tower of Mael'ros but now known as Tower of Daxxlj with a level 65 demon elite known as the Shade of Daxxlj. But that was all hypothetical.
