Defeat had come for her at last, on the eve of ultimate victory, as the god lay bleeding at her feet and his divine essence flowed into her body to ascend her, the other gods and goddesses came.
She tasted it at last, she had already given herself immortality ten thousand years ago but failed to ascend as her slaves had revolted and cast her down, disrupting the ritual and ripping her body apart, turned into a creature of living goo. Now, as she neared divinity at last, the power was stolen away and her goo body obliterated by true divine power...but not before she managed to feign an attack at them that was in truth her ejecting her living solid core far into the dark alleys of the city they fought in, her mind surviving but no body left for it to inhabit.
Cracked by the impact, her core would not last long, but after two days her high priest and lead scientist, Ezekiel, had heard her desperate cries and had found her, and taken her to his hidden laboratory to transfer her consciousness to a temporary synthetic prototype. He saved his Empress' life, though divinity was now out of her reach in a false body, she could never harness it again...but Ezekiel assured her, he could build her a better synthetic body, capable of harnessing immense power through other means, she would just need to be patient while he designed and fabricated it. It was all experimental, it would take years...
...but she could be patient for her vengeance...
Lore aside now! This is The Dark Empress, reborn as a synthetic lifeform in a prototype body! I have another...far more intricate and full ref coming of her final form, but this form serves her for several years and I felt I should get it commissioned as well! The story of The Dark Empress is still unfolding, and I still hope to eventually get a comic of her story commissioned when I've got the spare funds for it!
For now, enjoy this little taste, and expect something...marvelous to come along in the future from a well known artist~
