Spectre: Eternal Eclipse: Issue 1: God’s Wrath And No Peace
The night was pure darkness, reminiscent of something like coal. An explorer chose tonight of all nights to explore a cave. This cave was not like others though, storing something valuable than the human soul and spirit: the Black Diamond, in ancient stories holds a forbidden evil upon The Wrath of The Eternal Eclipse. Rumor says that it contains Eclipso, the demon prophesied to bring the “Forever Night” amongst men and women—humanity alike.
The explorer trotted further down into the cavernous labyrinth of a cave until he saw a diamond floating in the middle of the cave, and as the explorer reached for the diamond, a ghostly, green hooded figure appeared. It was the Spirit of Vengeance— God’s Wrath. The Spectre himself.
Spectre: “Bruce Gordon, explorer. Abandon your current path, take off now and return home. Your mere prescence does not belong here.
Bruce Gordon: Who in the world are you? Who are you to determine my existence.
Spectre: Who I am is none of your concern. Heed carefully or I will have to cohere with actions that bring forth unforeseen circumstances.
Ignoring the Spectre’s warnings, the Black Diamond started to influence Bruce’s thoughts, it called out to him, manipulated him. He then raised his voice, screaming at the ghastly shadow in front of him.
Bruce Gordon: “NO, I’VE COME TOO FAR FOR YOU TO STOP ME!”
He ran through the intangible Spectre, going straight for the diamond and with no hesitation, the latter fired an unstable blast of cosmic energy. The blast caused the cave tops to collapse, as the Spectre phased through the rubble, unharmed.
Spectre: “He was foolish to follow in his endeavors.”
???: “Maybe he was, but luckily for me he followed through on it,” called a voice within the debris of the cave.
Spectre: “No….That voice. It can’t possibly be…”
???: It can be and will be, you bastard. You trapped me in that damned dank cave for centuries, so Aztar, you better believe it’s me. Eclipse is coming and there’s nothing you can do. But just in case you want to try……
Suddenly a blade dark as midnight, appeared through the ghostly apparition’s back, causing the Spectre to fall on the ground. His body became even tangible, as the figure formed from the shadows behind, with the appearance of a goblin with piercing black eyes; irises reminiscent of freshly scented blood. Its skin of the being was light blue like someone that was frostbitten. The creature wore a purple goblin hood, bandage wrappings around his arms, and a notable purple marking of a waning gibbous moon across his face.
It then begun to spoke. “You once knew me as Galid, Wrath of God’s Hand. But since we meet under a new age, I think it’s time for a new name. You can call me…..”
???: “Eclipso. And you won’t forget the name, because when I’m done with this world……. No one will.”
Eclipso took the obsidian sword of eclipse out of Spectre’s physical body. The Spectre leaves the body of his host and the host dies, leaving Spectre effectively dead until he chooses a new guardian to protect this earthly plane.
Eclipso: Farewell, Aztar. We will meet again when my revolution comes along in due time.”
Eclipso walked off, beginning his reign of eclipse.
