With Lamlug in charge, and now a well shaped weapon. I began to fine tune him, getting him to the peak of his power. Captain after captain was silenced by his one strike kill, no matter how they fought he ended them. "Lamlug. I think you need your own little army." I whispered to myself one day as he reached his peak. So I gathered three of the strongest I could, and branded them. Latbag the Hacker, Golm the Brawler, and the Head chopper, whose true name is lost to time. Together I baptised them in the blood of a captains death, as "The Four Horsemen of Mordor." They slaughtered without prejudice, killed without thought. Then I was forced to bring it to a close. After a warchief I wanted gone was slain, the Brawler stood aside and took his place. Angered at his betrayal I ended him. As the Hacker followed suit not long after it was left to the Head Chopper and the Destroyer. I gave them my decree. "None shall join you two unless they have proved their worth." For the longest time it was just the two of them, slaughtering for me that I might find a worthy foe. Then, the dark age began. I sent Lamlug after a blood lusting warchief. As they fought i dealt with the second of his guards as the chopper dealt with one, and Lamlug took the Warchief. Killing my target I was struck down by the Choppers opponent. On my knees waiting to die I stood again and best him. As I stood however he turned and struck down the Chopper with such force he bent in half and fell to the ground. In a rage I butchered the opponent, taking his head as punishment for losing my warrior. Still blinded by rage I broke my code, and stole Lamlug kill. "Only a Head Chopper can join you now." Not hindered by this Lamlug shook it off. "I guess I need a new bodyguard, heh." For a long time he was alone, I left him, allowing him to rule the growing following he earned through his enemies deaths. Then I found a hunter and Archer, Nakra the sadistic, and another whose name I lost as well. He was a skull splitter. Despite this i pressed him into my ranks, and began the same process as Lamlug. After he ambushed a captain I was ambushed by two, at my side he defended me as the sadistic entered. Upon seeing the destructive power of his explosive shots I added him to the ranks of Lamlugs new guard. Soon however this haven came to an end. They both again betrayed him for their own titles as warchief. I killed them for their selfishness, and left Lamlug alone. I needed time, time to think.
