This is the story of Laven and his imps coming from a medieval world to Earth in the 1940s. It is an altered history story and will be somewhat violent. It is a story of magic and madness of a lovecraftian nature, with some sex later once he assembles his crew.

Prologue

I followed the shadow imp; at about 3 feet tall, it was kind of cute. It has wings and a long tail, black in color of body and no mouth or nose. It came to me talking of magic and learning so I followed.

I walked to an abandoned temple, a shadow temple. People from the local cult come here to worship shadow Gods. I am some what nervous but interested. The imp is walking past the outer gate towards the temple entrance so I continue walking with it. Walking up to the temple, I hear voices from inside. They are low speaking in a strange tongue. A soft voice to my side talks to me as I walk in the temple door, “Hi, I'm Valkyrai. I'd like to teach you magic,” said the imp.

“Okay,” I said in a soft ten year old voice, “Is it shadow magic?”

“Yes! We teach shadow magic! You will learn, yes?” asked an imp to my front. It then scampered off as if uninterested in pursuing the conversation. The imp that brought me kept walking away while I talked to Valkyrai. He kept asking me strange questions about if I knew magic or not already.

Valkyrai walks away a bit and beckons me to follow. “Here, we have a demon dragon for you.” Valkyrai walks down a small set of stairs off to the side and I walk down them as well.

“There, it is in you now; the others will be sealed in time,”Valkyrai stated.

“Okay,” I say, feeling a little madness creeping in. I hear a voice think to me, we are watching you! “I think someone is watching me, Valkyrai.”

“No, it is the madness from the demon; it is a madness dragon! A Void dragon!” Valkyrai reveals to me. “What is your name master?”

“Laven, my name is Laven,” I say. I look around the cavern-like area with other void dragons. They are small, and decidedly odd looking. Three heads on most, mine had three heads, a long tail with about eight tendrils coming off it, and four wings. It had small legs and mostly just levitated in place. It had spoke to me a bit about not liking being bound but now it lays inside my belly; sealed by Valkyrai.

“Now we will take you, orphan, away from this world. We will take you to a new world via the shadow world plane. Be careful to not wander off while walking with us!” Valkyrai exlcaimed.

We walk out of the temple to the courtyard, barren of a garden now, yet some old weeds and dead bushes remain. “Now to take you to the shadow world!” Valkyrai said as the world seemed to fade behind to a darkness in the sky. It had been daylight out still, though later in the evening in summer. Now I see only darkness and dark fog as my legs begin moving on their own. “Walk, just relax.”

As I walk, the world falls away and I am enveloped by fog. We traverse the shadow world for about ten minutes in silence and I am overwhelmed by a sense of awe for the shadow imps. They are taking care of me and helping me get magic. I like them even if a bit odd acting.

“Where are we now,” I ask Valkyrai. We arrived to a snowy, yet not cold, region of the shadow world.

“We are on Earth, a different world far away. It is an advanced world, you will learn of horseless carriages and airships that sail across the sky called airplanes,” Valkyrai stated. He moves off to the side while holding up a hand to have me not follow. Other imps start arriving and moving around excitedly. They talk of building for me. “They will labor for you, master.”

The imps start waving hands around and wood-like structures start rising up from the ground. They begin chanting a little in their language of Shadow Speak. “ I will teach you our speak in time, master, and magic. We will begin with that while they build.”

“Okay, what are they building?” I asked while watching the buildings slowly form to a farmhouse. “Is that a farm?”

“Yes, they will provide food here. They will also build housing; we will invite others for master to have fun with!” Valkyrai laughs.
