I have a sequel to Family Feud that I hope is coming soon (beginning of March is possible). It is (much) bigger than FF1 and I hope better... I am testing now - anyone want to help test?
It has been 50 long years since the fall of the Realm of Kisomi, the now legendary battles between Father and Mother and the final defeat of their corrupted son, Prince Humperdink, in the now named, War of Betrayal.
Peace held for only two short years after the final end to the War of Betrayal and Bardia and Jasmin were reunited for this brief time. Hoping to keep the Realm together, they had a baby son and loved him for that short time. He was to be the next great hope for the Realm.
However, times have (and always will be) changed.
Lady Jasmin did not recover from the insanity of being buried alive and did not forgive Lord Bardia for the pain that she had endured. With the insanity taking full hold in her, she drove Bardia (and their son, Prince Menelaus) away and held the throne by herself for a short time - long enough though, to have a second son (father unknown) to be her sole heir when she died (again). A surrogate held the throne after her death and then turned it over to her heir when he reached maturity at the Realm's given age of 25. Thus rose the self-proclaimed Emperor - Deridius I. And the Empire of Determined Enlightenment.
In opposite thinking to his deranged mother, Deridius saught order from chaos, good over evil, and conformity in all things. He drove the evil races from the land, he forced his rule over the neutral races and even introduced enforced breeding of the good races to increase their population more rapidly than others. In other words, as his obsession grew, so did the seed of insanity that was planted in him from his mother. It grew over the next 20 years to a point where he became detached from reality and even razed his own cities to the ground to stop the spread of lawlessness and disparity. Of course, as any good leader would know, communities grow strong with disparity and the more you push any people, the more they push back.
Thus started the War of Uprising.
In the years since Bardia's banishment, his son, Prince Menelaus, grew strong and became the leader of races that the Realm should have had. After the death of Bardia and the growing insanity of the Emperor, Menelaus saught allies against Deridius and formed a resistance that grew along with Deridius's insanity.
When the War of Uprising started, Menelaus had a force strong enough to challenge Deridius on his borders and started to take back territory, gaining support as he advanced. In the final year of the War, this advance and the perceived betrayal by his people, pushed Deridius further into desperation and he called upon great forces that should not have been awoken. He called forth the Avatars from the void and used their power to strike back at Menelaus. Deridius wants him dead more than all - as he perceives Menelaus as Chaos with the only goal of wanting the throne from under his still warm corpse.
However, the Avatars are not to be controlled and caused more damage with their magics than any force could have imagined. Even the earth was split assunder, magic from the void was let loose and cities shook and fell with every passing day.
So finally, five long and bloody years after the War started, the show-down is about to happen. The mighty armies of Emperor Deridius I and Lord Menelaus face each other across the Creeping Desert. The Avatars (thankfully) seem to have forsaken Deridius for this one last fight. The winner of this battle will take all... They will take all as at the center of the battle field, lies the key to victory...
