Chapter 22: getting used to his own power
As Mairon followed Zabel, he kept quiet the rest of the journey.
They went deeper and deeper and deeper in into the mines of Moria until they came to the workplace Mairon requested.
"Here we are my lord your personal workplace."
"The requested specimen are locked up beside your place."
"Including elves, humans, dwarfs, hobbits, trolls and different kinds the of orcs."
"We also found the remains of the Balrog and Beorn the skinchanger."
"Good you found the Balrog, that means Oroen doesn't have to lose his life."
"Have you started searching for Smaug's remains."
"No we received no such orders my lord."
"You have now, he should lay on the bottom of lake town."
"Go and retrieve him, in pieces if you must."
"Now leave me, I have things to research."
"As you command my lord."
Bang step step step.
Mairon could hear her walk away.
He now had time and opportunity to start researching immortality and create a new and better Species.
One bred for war, but capable of being a normal population.
He would reform the orcs from fast bred fodder to longlived elite soldiers.
The priority's are different than they used to be.
When Morgoth made the orcs he had to create a army fast.
Now Mairon had all the time in the world, so I stead of a all consuming and destroying race, like the orcs.
He would create something alike elves but stronger faster, and bred for war.
He would brand them the Zi elveuk, the black elves.
Now he had a week, to make headway into his research.
But first he would try to get control over his space time ability.
So he started training in it.
Sitting down in the middle of the room his thoughts turned inwards.
'so now I need to feel the time space in my body.'
'hmm what is this, it feels a lot like the people i absorbed.'
'it should be the soul energy that is stored in my body.'
'i still can't make use of it, but I will worry about that once I break trough this barrier keeping me from expanding my power.'
'now where is the space time anomaly.'
'ah here it is'
As he said that his eyes dilated, the sheer magnificence of this power awed even a 50000 year old god.
It was more powerful than even the greatest Valar.
As he touched this power with his energy, they connected as never before.
It was like he put fuel in a car.
You can still push a car without driving it, but that defeats it whole purpose.
The same was true for his space time power.
The functionality was totally different.
Now he only needed to know the coordinates, to get somewhere.
And he could open portals allowing whole army's to move instantaneous.
"Haha this is great."
"Now let's first get that dragon carcass out of the cave before I continue into my research."
So he walked into a open area before opening a giant portal into the cave he found in planetos.
Out fell the corpse of a dragon.
Right after he fell, he flared back to life as a frost dragon.
His eyes opend his reptilian eyes open, and it eyed Mairon with malice.
Mairon was intrigued, far from the fear most would feel he was almost impressed by the power of his fellow necromancer.
"As soon as the suppressive power of that cave is gone these beings become active again."
"Now let's put you down before you destroy anything around you."
mairon flared his power cracking the floor around him, as his armoured hand gently touched the dragons snout.
As soon as he touched the dragon its eyes milked over, and his soul got absorbed by Mairon.
After Mairon took it's energy and the soul was sent unto jugement.
Now the body lay once again dead before him, ready to be studied and dissected.
"Good now let's go see my old friend."
As Mairon moved past the dragon corpse he eyed a dark corner, before ignoring it and moving into the cell area.
Out of the shadows came Zabel, sweat drenched her forehead her eyes followed her lord as he walked off.
Before turning to the giant dead creature.
'i have to report this to father, the lord's power I'd far greater than any of us ever imagined.'
She turned before disappearing back into the shadows.
Mairon walked slowly trough the cell blocks, before stopping in front of a cell holding two corpses.
One of a giant warrior, that if alive would still tower over Mairon's true form.
And another of the same nature as him.
A maiar sent down to help develop the planet only to end up destroying and polluting it.
Something no one is able to see however, is the soul floating above the Balrog.
No one exept Mairon who was granted the ability to see souls, by his father.
Mairon looked at the twisted soul shouting profenity's about his father, and the hate he held for creation.
Everything about it was equally great, as was his hate for Mairon.
Or in his words Sauron the lapdog of Morgoth.
"Hello, long time not seen durin's bane."
"Do not call me with that title, it is a absolute mockery of my prowess to be know as a Slayer of a mere dwarf."
"You are right Fedorron it is unreasonable of me, but how did you end up in this state?"
"Because of Olòrin,(Gandalf) he slew my physical body as I slew his."
"But he was sent back by Eru, Fedorron said with great venom in his voice."
Olòrin was a Maiar of greater power, and standing than Fedorron even before his fall into depravity.
So as soon as Olòrin was sent back with more of his power released, Fedorron would never be able to stand up against him again.
"I see well I will have to thank Olòrin one of these days."
"He has given me a great gift."
Fedorron started to shiver in his soul form.
The eyes of Arda's greatest Maiar greatly unsettled him.
And how right he was
