In the abyssal expanse of the void, where time drips like wax from eternity's candle,
Nori, the Wraith Captain, had waited.
His gaze, intense as the obsidian night, pierced through the veil of realms, fixating on the thinning line that kept him from his conquest. The rift—a gossamer fracture in the fabric of existence—whispered of a world ripe for his domination.
This was the moment, the cusp of epochs, where the patience of the ancient shepherd of darkness was to be rewarded.
With a step that trembled the boundaries of worlds, Nori entered the mortal realm. The equilibrium shattered, not with a bang, but with the silent acceptance of inevitability. The air itself recoiled from his presence. The portal, a swirling maw of cerulean and sable, reflected in his coal-fire eyes, his vision now a mosaic of both the living and the dead. He was the nexus of nightmares, the embodiment of every dark whisper that slithered through the sleeping minds of man.
A surge of power, ancient and dark as the void itself, coursed through Nori's veins. He raised his staff, the shepherd’s crook that had herded countless souls into oblivion, and watched the energy crackle at its tip. It was a beacon, a harbinger of the end for the Dream Masters.
His laughter, a chilling timbre, cascaded over the silent woods, promising ruin. Nori's ambition was as boundless as the void from which he emerged. The Dream Masters, those feeble guardians of the cosmic order, would fall before him. He would drench the Dream Master Lake in shadow, and from its depths, he would rise, sovereign and unchallenged.
The world, a canvas, awaited the dark hues of his rule. With each Dream Master's end, his legend would grow, until fear itself wore his name. Nori, the inexorable tide of doom, would not be denied.
His will was the anvil upon which reality would be reshaped.
Nothing could stop him. For he was Nori, the ancient evil, the shepherd of the void cometh—and his time, after epochs in shadow, had finally dawned.
