Dragon Helm

Grem held up one finger in front of her face and faded away before their eyes. The dark chasm was perfect for her. With her black armor and abilities, the cave made her practically imperceptible. The two other knights, Fable and Diamond Sword watched as she began to make her way over toward the massive bear-like creature known as the Ursa Minor. It had a dull glow about it that was marred by corruption. It festered with a black symbiotic growth over a great deal of its body. The already ferocious beast was given a disgusting visage and obvious mental illness that drove it to madness. Both of the stallions stood at the ready as she neared the beast. Their swords wielded in a fighting stance, ready to catch the beast as he charged.

However, that’s when she began to approach even closer. Both Fable and Diamond saw at the same time, the beast’s eyes turned straight to Grem. Apparently, the bear had true-sight, an ability to see anything not completely invisible, and have perfect sight in the dark.

“Grem!” Diamond shouted. “Look out!”

As soon as Grem looked upward, the giant bear was already on her. His paw was as large as her whole body, and it came at her full force. She was knocked back hard, and skidded along the rock floor.

“Let’s go!” Fable burst into motion, as did Diamond. The two of them rushed over toward the Ursa. Their armor clanked in motion as they both raised their weapons, ready to fight. Before the bear could strike at the fallen Grem once again, Fable’s sword shined the same sickening green color as before. He fired off yet another Death Bolt into the Ursa’s flank in order to get its attention. The beast turned its attention over toward the two knights who were already well within range.

Both the knight and death knight struck at the same time, cleaving their blades into its broken flesh. The bear roared with great pain as it turned to meet them both in combat. Its attacks were especially difficult to avoid, and they were powerful! Fable was struck. He held his sword in front of him as the bear reposted, but he still slid straight back in a terrible effort to keep his balance.

Diamond’s gigantic blade struck deep into the bear’s corrupted flesh. His sword sinking deep, but it was not enough. The bear jabbed into Diamond’s armor, causing him to stumbled back, cringing in pain as the ursa’s attacks were no joke. Even as Grem reentered the fray, both injured and shaken up, the outcome looked uncertain.

As the bear turned to Diamond Sword, his jaws beard down at his body. The unicorn knight swung his large blade and sliced the monstrous maw. The giant bear was hurt, but undeterred. Even as Fable used up what remained of his mana, draining life from the bear to increase his own health, it was no use. They were too low level. Fable had heard rumors that a full group with a healer was recommended for this monstrosity, but he had no idea how overwhelmed they would become.

They were battered something fierce. Diamond, acting as their tank, could not hold on much longer. Fable was out of energy and his strikes just were not doing enough damage. Grem stabbed and sliced with both swords, but her life force was running especially low. The bear seemed to have vitality to no end, but truth was they were nearing his death, they just did not have enough to finish him.

Fable aggravated the bear once again. He had enough energy for a first level death bolt which did very little, but caught his attention all the same. He did his best to defend against the onslaught of the monstrous entity, but anyone would tell you that losing vitality of this rate was to forfeit one’s life.

“You guys go! Run! I’ll cover your escape!” Fable shouted toward them as his sword swiped and sliced into the blood matted fur and swollen black skin.

“But the bears have all respawned by now! It’s no use.” Grem said as she looked back down the long corridor. She turned her gaze over to Diamond Sword, who was equally as puzzled, tired, and enormously injured from the hopeless battle. They had done tremendous amounts of damage to the beast, but all was lost. Fable was down to his last bit of energy and with a few more bats of the giant paw, he was going to die.

“NO!” Diamond shouted as the killing blow was about to be struck. However, the bear’s exterior suddenly turned a bright shade of blue.

“Khelek!” A voice shouted from directly behind Grem, who was given a startle as she turned around. There was an azure colored unicorn at her flank. His horn glowed a bright ice blue as his hands did. He lifted them and prepared yet another spell. He wore dark navy blue robes as was customary for sorcerers of his type. He cringed as he unleashed yet another beam of icing death!

This was enough to send the bear into a retreat. Slowly, the battle ravaged ursa minor began a slow run away from them. All of them teamed back up against the beast. They jabbed and slashed with abandon as their tired bodies moved toward the glowing, corrupted bear.

Finally, the giant mammal was brought down. The quest had been completed, and all of them had ascended. That was, up until all of them hit the ground. All three of them pulled their armored helms from their heads as their heads were drenched in sweat. They gasped for breath, panted. Fable’s head was bleeding, and his armor was in desperate need of mending. His two new companions were in similar states. They tried their best to speak to their savior in the blue robe, but they were entirely too caught up in catching their breaths.

“Winter!” Grem finally said. “I can’t believe you found us! That was awesome! I thought we were done for.”

The two stallions nodded and looked up to the unicorn as he stood with his long staff at his side. He only smiled at them and held up his hand.

“Oh, it was nothing. Fable private messaged me and said you could use some help. Took me a minute though. The teleport point is a while away, I had to hoof it over here pretty damn fast. Holy crap, your health is about to wither away.”

“Uh, yeah, we just defeated an Ursa Minor. I didn’t think we would even get this close to it with just the three of us. Still, it was worth a shot.” Fable said as he got to his hooves.

“Well, I mean, I’m a sorcerer, so healing isn’t exactly my forte. However, I do have a level one spell.” He said, and took a minute to pull out his spellbook. “I didn’t think I’d need it so damn fast though.”

“Are you kidding? I’d kill to have a healing spell.” Fable said, being the one who can suck the life out of enemies. Both he and Winter had a little chuckle. “So hey, how long are you on? We’re probably gonna be riding this corruption quest for a while.”

“I’ll be on for a while.” Winter said, waving his staff forward and casting a glow over Fable as a little bit of his health was restored. The three of them sat in a circle and ate some of their rations as Winter healed them little by little.

“So, you’re saying there’s more to this corruption quest than just a bunch of evil animals?” Grem asked as they started to feel much better. Their wounds healed and their energy coming back as they rested.

“Oh, yeah, the corrupted animals is just the beginning. Apparently, there’s a castle we need to go to. It was an abandoned castle, but now a horrific pony resides there. He has something called the Life Rune and he is casting spells on it to destroy it. And stuff happened and the land got dismal and whatnot.” Fable said, seeing his life bar was now at full.

“Sounds like you just kinda gave up talking about it, Fable.” Winter said as he sat down with them to re-up his mana.

“Yeah, I figured you guys got the overall drift of it.” Fable smirked.

“Alright, well that’s cool. Sounds like a grand adventure. However, don’t we need to fight through the whole line of bears to get out of here now?” Grem said as she got to her hooves and stretched a little bit.

“Nope! I can gate us all back to my home point. Now that I’m part of your group, just stand close to me. My mana is getting to the point where I can do it.” Winter said as he looked at his spellbook.

“Wow, being a sorcerer sounds awesome. Maybe I should be a spellcaster next.” Diamond sword got up as well. “I need to buy some more rations anyway.”

“I’m heading straight for the pub for a cupper.” Fable laughed a little.

“You drink?” Diamond asked. Fable shook his head.

“No, but my character does. It stills the demons he possesses, which fuel his death magic and his sword in killing those who have done the world wrong! He is angry at the world for making him a warrior with the spellpower of necromancy. Now he skulks the land of Starling in search of those evil entities which seek to do the same to the innocent fillies and colts.” Fable’s chest was puffed up as he looked over at the three of them as they stared. “What? My character has a backstory, I’m a writer, remember?”

“Yeah yeah, either way. Come on.” Winter gathered them all around himself as he held up his hand and his staff. Little by little they began to glow bright and he closed his eyes as he started to make all of them shine with a brilliant blue light.

They made it back to the nearest town. All of them finished the quest with the old librarian, who started that quest. As Fable said, he gave them the next level of the quest, this one was in a much farther place. They would need to travel over the hills of Under Brush and cross the Seven Rivers of Drikkin in order to find a cove near the shores of Ashendale. The journey would be long, but they were willing to wait and enjoy themselves a bit in the town.

Winter stayed in the library and cultivated his magical skills through the new levels he had attained in his time outside of the town. Fable did indeed stay at the tavern and began to drink flagons of strange beverages that started to affect his senses. Diamond and Grem went to the blacksmith and had their armor repaired. After their platemail was mended, they walked out of the small building and began to walk toward the inn at the end of the road.

“We should probably log soon.” Diamond noticed how long they'd been playing Dragon Helm and it was getting a little out of hand. Then he looked over to the side, away from her as his face began to calculate.

“You really don’t want to.”

“No, I really don’t.” He admitted, making Grem laugh. “Does that make me addicted to this game?”

“No, that’s pretty normal. Once you start taking days off from work or neglecting your girlfriend for this game, then I’ll kick your ass and tell you that you’re addicted. Until then, it’s a brand new game and you’re enjoying it. That’s good. We can keep playing for a little while longer if you want.” Grem said as they entered the inn. There were actually a few players in the lobby of the inn, but the same nonplayer character stood behind the counter, looking at the two of them as they approached.

“Evening! Can I interest you in a bottle of ale?” The NPC said as Grem opened up his sales menu. She got a few items for the next journey they went on and made this city her new starting point so that she could port back to this location if she needed to.

“Alright, come on. I think there’s another quest in this inn.” Grem said, motioning and leading Diamond down the hallway, into the rooms.

Winter and Fable met in the tavern, both of them had been drinking their fair share of alcohol, but neither of them cared. They were so glad they revamped their accounts for Dragon Hell, it was worth every bit. The two of them reminisced about old times in playing their other MMO’s, and remembered the frustrations and the hardships they had gone through. Then they drank until they saw that enough time had passed by.

Using their world maps, they found that their two companions were in the Leaping Stag Inn.

“I hope they set their waypoints here, Knights and Black Knights are a long ways away from here. If they die on the journey, it’ll be one hell of a hike back.” Winter said as they crossed the inn.

“I’m pretty sure Grem knows what she’s doing in the game. I mean, she was killing us both that game night.” Fable opened the door to the room they were in, and both of them were on the bed. Winter and Fable’s eyes went very wide.

Grem was on top of Diamond, bouncing up and down on his cock. As she did, her gigantic tits flopped up and down. Her gray fur outlining her pink nipples as they bobbed at an extensive rate. The white unicorn laid on the bed and looked over at the other two as they entered. His face scrunched a little in worry as they gazed at the two love birds. Grem, however, looked at them with her eyes half open. She smiled wide and kept riding her stallion boyfriend.

“Well, if it isn’t our noble companions.” Grem slowed down a bit, but she never stopped pushing down on the very large member as it went very deep into her soaked quim. “I could use a few more cocks, if you don’t mind.” She asked the lot of them.

Grem was devoted to Diamond Sword with both mind and body. However, she did explain to him how she had had a night of ecstasy with the two of them some months ago. The bat pony let them have every hole they could fuck. They filled her up once each and then some. Grem had explained this to him while he was ever so deep inside of her. After a little convincing, Diamond Sword told her that he was okay with them. She had kissed him deep and long, assuring him that he would not regret it.

It only took a few minutes, but she was bouncing up and down on a large prick while she held a blue cock and a red cock in both hands, licking and sucking on both of them. Grem moaned in absolute glee as Diamond started fucking her upward as she came down on his long, thick shaft. Then she licked all the way down to Fable’s dark red shaft and gazed up at him as she smirked. Her hand wanked Winter’s cock as she pointed to to her cheek. Her head turned, and she deep throated Winter’s spotted blue prick.

“Shouldn’t we--nnnn!--be healing a corrupted world or something like that?” Fable asked as she had him deep into her muzzle. She smirked and pulled him out, jerking him off.

“I’m sure the world can wait.” Grem remarked as she shoved his large dick back into her mouth. The gray bat pony gave a surprised yelp as Diamond Sword used his position to push her onto her back. His gigantic, dark skinned manhood slipped out of her and pointed straight up as she landed with her back on the mattress. She bounced a little bit, her tits wobbling to and fro.

Before she could even say anything, he was already setting his cock between her massive mammaries. Grem licked her lips as his cock neared her mouth. She latched onto his glans penis as he started pushing his horse cock back and forth between her breasts. He used his thumbs over her nipples to tighten his hold over them.

Winter was the first to get behind Diamond and push his very ready, saliva wet cock into her pussy lips. The azure colored unicorn worked her cunt with his nice thick cock and held her legs wide open with both hands as she moaned against Diamond’s hot rod. His precum lubricated her bust as she gazed at him with longing eyes. Even as Winter filled her with cum, he had no question that she loved him. Even when Fable took his turn on her and she moaned against his fat cock squeezing into her. Diamond merely pushed harder and farther into her mouth as his balls pressed against the underside of her tits.

It was the first time Diamond Sword had ever seen Grem show her true slut side to him. What struck him, however, was how polite the two stallions were. Both Fable and Winter were gentle with her at first before pushing deeper and faster into her, just how she liked it.

When all was said and done, she stayed on her knees as the three stallions all stood around her. Their cocks were out and jerking off in front of her as she smiled.

“Who’s first?” Grem asked, gazing at all of them as they rushed to wank their cocks harder and faster. That was when Diamond started breathing harder and making more noise. She leaned toward him with her mouth open as he got closer and grabbed the back of her mane.

He made an urgent noise of relief as his cock head burst with white, sticky jizz as it splashed her face. She sighed and moaned as she felt his hot liquid cover her muzzle and her snout. Her hand came up underneath him and began to massage his balls, soothing them as they emptied spunk on to her snout.

“Beautiful, next?” She looked at Fable and Winter as they both seemed like they were just about ready to pop! Before she could say anything more, both young stallions shot their loads. She felt their love juice splatter across her face as she relished every moment of it. They covered her. Thick hot cum dripped off of her chin onto her huge tits. Shot after shot drenched her lips as she licked it off and put their cock heads into her mouth. Grem tasted fresh sperm and drank it as it came to her.

“Wow, looks like you guys needed that pretty badly.” The bat pony sat there and breathed in the wonderful scent of their pure hormones as she basked in her layered facial. She felt like they got every inch of her face, even having to close her left eye as it was covered entirely. All three stallions smiled up until all three of them turned their heads to an opening door.

There stood Voltage, the ironclad unicorn mare standing at the door. The orange furred paladin pony looked down at the cum-covered bat pony, then looked up at the three stallions with their hard dicks out. She blinked a few times, then started to grin a little bit. She carried a huge sword on her back and was dressed in the finest white platemail armor that her level could wear.

“Are they in there Volt--Ohhhh.” Spark said as he got to the door. The mare and stallion twins took a moment to take in the situation and suddenly their lives seemed to be rather normal with this bunch.

“Spark!” Gream gasped, the spunk on her face still beading down. “Hey! How’s it going?”

Voltage turned her head to look at her brother. The two orange unicorns shared that same glance, and Spark shrugged and gave a nervous chuckle. It was a look that just screamed “Yes, I definitely fucked her.”

Voltage rolled her eyes.

Their travels took them far across the land. The deeper they came through the quest, the higher their levels rose through the teens and into the twenties. Spark and Voltage became a valued addition to their party. The land’s corruption became more apparent the closer they came to the valley that would take them to the end of their voyage.

“See? It's right here.” Voltage said as they came to the valley’s edge. The earth had been destroyed and the land looked as if it had been burned to ash. Flecks of ember glowed in small pieces of the black soil. There was a dark haze all through the sky above and over the horizon, giving their vision a brown tinge. Trees had been withered to black stumps, giving the air ashy qualities.

“Could they have picked a more depressing spot?” Spark said as they started to tread the path. “This place reminds me of death’s vacation spot.”

“I like it.” Fable said in a brooding, grim voice behind his black plate helm. They all glanced at him to see he had taken on his Death Knight persona in full swing, rolling their eyes.
“Okay, from what I've heard, we should be just high enough level to survive in this zone. We just need to watch out for orcs and ogr--" Diamond Sword was cut short in his speaking as a giant boulder slammed nearby. It bounced and rolled past them. The shock wave knocking him, Grem and Voltage straight back on their asses. The dust kicked up around them and as it cleared, they all saw the giant figure in the distance.

An ogre, around nine feet tall, tan and fat stood in the distance. A roar came from in front of him as orcs began their charge. They were rather large, muscular, green creatures. Fangs pointed up from their lower lips. All of them were clad in black cloth and war painted dark red in different patterns all over their faces. They charges with ferocity as their ogre began to pick up another boulder the size of its own very large head, twice as heavy.

“Winter! Take out the ogre! All of you! Form a line!” Diamond wielded his large sword as he stepped forward and his companions did the same. Voltage and Grem stood at either side of him.

Fable’s hands and eyes began to glow his sickening green. With his hands thrusting forward, his much larger death bolt shot forward into one of the orcs’ chest.

The five orcs charged in and were met with the band of warriors. Electric Spark unleashed his first wizard spell, eliminating the already wounded orc as Fable met him with his sword. Grem struck the next one before his axe could reach her. With her opponent's dazed expression, she knew her disorienting attack was pulled off with flawless precision. She rolled off of his arm and spun around and jabbed one of her black bladed swords through his back, impaling him as it stuck from his chest.

Before the ogre could unleash yet another boulder into the group, Winter cast a light blue beam of energy into the distance. The ogre was taken by surprise as his whole body turned bitter cold. His joints moved slow and he recoiled at the raw pain that engulfed his body. Before he could come back for yet another boulder attack, the blast of freezing light was followed by a ray of green death. The sickening beam of necromancy shook the ogre to his core as Fable charged in. His two-handed long blade clutched in his grasp. The ogre had no chance of catching the blow. Fable’s blade struck with a great force. The red pegasus was taken by surprise, however, as the ogre came forth with a precise kick that sent him sprawling. Fable stayed on his hooves but just barely.

As the ogre regained his bearings, he felt a sharp pain in his back. He was stabbed deep by Grem’s short bladed swords and before he could turn, there came a great burning in his chest. Spark enacted a powerful flame spell that caused the ogre to roar with great pain. Unable to retreat, and his band of orcs demolished, the ogre fell, evaporating as the group gained their experience.

The party took a small breather, gathering themselves back up before they continued through the wastelands. As they did, the ash only kicked up harder with the winds. The sun beamed down in a haze over the corrupted tar on the ground. It was so unbearably hot that they were cooking inside of their armor. Winter had the worst time of it, who thrived in the cold, but the heat weakened him a great deal. As they walked, they held their arms in front of their faces to protect their eyes. The harsh terrain only grew more perilous.
