(PAID) The Call of the Flame, Chapter 9: The Lays of Workingar
reduxist for The Old King (Living/Dead)
(ORCISH ACCENT)
Living: A mighty, yet vicious ruler of old, as proud as he was bloodthirsty. We see him in flashbacks, in his prime as the sadistic warlord King.
Dead: A twisted and evil husk of his old self. The Deep God tortured him and tethered his husk to a rock to be eaten, mutated, and tortured into an abomination like the rest of his souls (Mohrians). Not an Orc anymore, but a humanoid creature with fish-like properties, a Deep One.
Voice (Living): Orcish Accent, inspired by modern Nordic accents such as Norwegian, Scandinavian, Danish, or Swedish. He's authoritative yet mad.
Voice (Dead): Bubbles when he speaks, filled inside with filth and water to his lungs. A husk, decrepit, and almost unrecognizable save for his anger.
"You have a boy's heart still my son, you are afraid of loss, of losing those around you. You will learn here and now that they can be taken from you, or die in glory at your command. I will have WAR!"
[Ghastly, corpsified] "You killed us, you killed us all boy. Your father, your people. I told you your heart was too soft, how fitting I should be the one to take it back!"
