Fenrir replied. "That Ragnarok is the opposite. He is not an abomination yet but he is worse in character."
The voice in his head scoffed. "Character is for mortals. Only power is important."
"I apologize then, your Lordship fountain of life."
The fountain of life said, "No offense taken. Your thoughts and opinions matters not. What matters is that my plan failed. I wanted to convert him into my champion despite his unsavory nature."
"I tried to tell him about the source of origin energy but we were interrupted before he could accept my deal," Fenrir explained.
"I know. I was there. The father of the boy came early. I am sure it must be that deranged Red fool's doing." The voice said.
Fenrir considered his words carefully before he said them. "Excuse me for saying this, but I don't think Ragnarok would have accepted the deal. He was laughing for some weird reason. Maybe his mind is already broken. Eating that many transcendents as a mana entity cannot be without its adverse effects."
"It doesn't matter if he is mentally deformed or not. He will change his mind once he senses and experiences the power of Origin energy. Origin energy is several levels above mana. Even a stupid transcendent will be able to tell the difference. Did you not also change your mind after sensing it despite being stubborn at first?" contemporary romance
Fenrir had to agree. "You're right my Lord. Power is all that matters and Origin energy is a source of power. Executioners selfishly chase after power. He would have definitely agreed to become your champion."
The fountain of life warned him. "It is too late for that now. The deranged Red fool has made his move. It will be difficult to stop him now. You are not safe either. If I know him, he will come after you too. Follow the plan and move to the next step of it."
Fenrir acknowledged. "Your will is my command."
Fenrir is a representative of the fountain of life. The fountain of life speaks to his mind directly like the demon god speaks to Xigger's mind. The fountain of life also advises Fenrir like the demon god does.
Xigger met his fellow pawn in this grand game and didn't recognize that Fenrir was working for another master, specifically the opposition to the conquest of CARNAGE. Even the demon god didn't know.
On Xigger's part, he couldn't imagine that a great hero of his and the entire race of Warrogs could be in the same situation as him. As for the demon god, there is just very little that it knows about the history of the plane. It came recently to the plane, meanwhile, the fountain of life has been here for a very long time.
Fenrir heeded the advice of the fountain of life and ran across the north based on the directions dictated to him. He didn't think at all about how it feels to follow orders like some good soldier. He has been a pawn for too long. He was a pawn even before Xigger was born. Obedience, while strange to an Alpha and a great Alpha such as him, has become ingrained in him over the millions of years of servitude.
Fenrir was very unwilling to bow his head to another at first. He didn't submit when he was asked to bow his head when the fountain of life first entered the plane. The fountain of life was many times stronger than him but he would rather die than serve.
He felt envy and longing for origin energy when he was captured by the other representatives of the fountain of life. It was then that he was exposed to origin energy and felt the difference in power. But he still didn't capitulate then because of his pride.
He remained stubborn in captivity. That changed when all the Warrogs in the plane were slaughtered until very few remained. The population of Warrogs stopped being enough to sustain the Emperors. All the Emperors died. He would have died too if he hadn't begged for another chance. The fountain of life heard his pleas and saved him.
It turned out that he wasn't strong enough to face death with pride when he could live as a servant. He took the alternative and became a representative. He gained limited freedom but he wasn't allowed to come out in the open. A Warrog representative would have created quite an uproar and outcry amongst the wood elves. It would have caused another round of conflicts.
A lot of wood elves would have surely defected and become dark elves. So his existence became a secret. He wasn't allowed to leave the prison where he was jailed. He became the warden while the ice golems acted as the prison guards.
That was his situation until Ragnarok came to the North. He was only allowed to move recently and that too in secret. This time, he moved specifically for Ragnarok. The fountain of life wanted to use a hero of the race for the recruitment mission.
The Fountain of Life has always been aware of Ragnarok's movements. It was the one that directed the wood elves to surround the mountain range where the Iron Fur Pack used to live. It gave them directions such that the perimeter was secure except for a little gap that a Warrog on the run could sneak through. That gap didn't happen to lead to the north of the plane by chance.
It knew when he reached the mountain and allowed him to enter it because of its interest in Ragnarok. It knows that Ragnarok will definitely eat those other Executioners. Ragnarok killed members of his pack for power. What do some weakened old paragons count for?
Ragnarok was to eat them and then be convinced by a respected paragon of his race to join the light side of this conflict. He would have had his fill and therefore be open to the idea of more power.
