Armageddon, following his screwing with the timeline and reviving the entire Aparoid army under his sole command, made a portal into this layer of Hell, following a strange feeling he got.
"Alright, I know someone's here, some one who wants to see me... So I hope he/she show his/herself soon... I'd make a comment about not liking to be put on hold, but with the kind of beings that can show up here, I'll wise up and keep my mouth shut." Armageddon grumbled, waiting.

Very good choice. A horrendous voice commented.
Suddenly, hundreds of tendrils burst from the ground and ensnared Armageddon's every limb. The ground itself trembled as a soul-chilling shriek emanated from it. Hundreds of tooth-filled maws opened in the ground as the tendrils drew Armageddon closer to them.
"BY THE WILL OF THE DARK ECHELON, I COMMAND YOU TO STOP!" A hissing voice echoed across the plane itself.
The tendrils and maws withdrew back into the ground as a shape landed before Armageddon. It apeared to be a gargoyle, but was covered in thick plates of dark-green chitin. Its eyes seemed to burn with a purple light.
"My apologies, but the plane has been... adversly affected since my master's coming." The being stated.
It stood up, only about 10 feet tall at the most. It stared up at Armageddon and hissed,
"My master has seen what you can do, and is impressed. You do well, for a demon."
The creature swept its arms to the side, and stated,
"He wishes to ask of you a favor, if you have the time."

"A favor? Hmm... Well, if it doesn't involve doing something... nice..." The demon shuddered when he spoke the word, as if it were poisonous to him, "...for some one, I'm listening. I don't have to worry about time, because I can keep most of my enemies occupied by my newly acquired army, and I don't have to move to send the command." The demon lowered his head to the gargoyle.
"So you can tell your master that I'll listen to his favor, unless he can already hear us speaking." Armageddon finished with his evil smirk.

Oh, but I'm already here. A thunderous voice echoed across the land.
The messenger smirked and spread his arms to the side as he stated,
"May I introduce my lord and master, the Dark Echelon, the Lord Cthulu, the Corruptor, Dogolas!"
A shadow fell over the entire land, sprouting from the black city in the distance. The shape seemed to be solidifying as it detached from the city, hovering about half a mile from Armageddon. It finally took shape, and a horrid one at that...
Its chitin-covered body was triangular, sloping into a thick, sinuous tail at the bottom. The sides of the 'triangle' had multiple tendrils sprouting from them, running up their length and eventually getting larger at the top. It had varying shades of green covering its entire body, darker at the edges and lighter near the middle. It had a few small tendrils placed here and there on the front of its torso, and its chitin seemed to converge at a central point on its chest. Its tail was tipped by an organic bulb of light, like an angler fish, except this light seemed to haunt the darkest corners of one's mind with its soft, dim white light. Its back had three rows of thick, katana-like spines running down it, one down the middle of the back, and another on either area where the shoulder blades would be.
But the head was the worst.
It was vaguely bullet-shaped, the top bearing slightly uplfited rows of chitin that ended at the base of the 'neck'. The front of the head ended in a pair of interlocking, forest-green mandibles that opened vertically instead of horizantally. It bore a pair of violet, soulless eyes positioned 'normall'y, forward. A yellow, oval-oid, gem-like structure emerged from its forehead, and was slightly covered by the chitin. Three small, wriggling tendrils were placed on either side of the maw.
As it floated in the air before the demon, 'standing' (it was actually floating, for it had no legs) at a full 300 meters tall. The abberation stared down at Armageddon, and the demon could feel this deity smirk mentally.
[glow=green,2,300]So, the fabled Armageddon, the one who survived five strikes from individual gods and survived. My my, what an honor. As my messenger previously stated, I am Dogolas. It's a pleasure to meet you.[/glow]
The messenger had all but dissapeared. Dogolas then continued,
[glow=green,2,300]"I have a small favor to ask of you, since it seems you accept. A few months ago, one of my best agents arrived to Earth in order to do me a favor. Sadly, he got caught up fighting some bothersome hedgehog and super-cyborg before he could fufill his mission. Now, I can't have that."[/glow]
His eyes narrowed as he continued,
"Now, somewhere where he was slain, downtown Nightshade I do believe, there should be a sentient piece of his mass lurking around somewhere. I need to to find it and bring it back to Nessus so I may restore it, for his soul is still trapped within another deity's body. All I ask of you is to retreive it and bring it back."
The abberation's eyes flared open, and the plane shook beneath him.
[glow=green,2,300]"You will be rewarded for your service, with whatever you please. Except for the death of another god. But anything else, I can do. Do you accept this mission?"[/glow]

"I accept. As a matter of fact, my army is already searching for them mass, now that I have imbuned them with the abilities required to sense the mass you have requested for me to collect. Assuming all goes well, you should have it by tommorrow or the day after. As for the reward...
In another dimension, there is a young black dragon, her name being Cynder. She was possessed, and forced to do great evil, but she was freed from that control. I see potential in her power as an adult, even without my improvements, As soon as I give you what you have asked me to retrieve, I want to see her body, dead or alive, in my grasp, that I may use her for my own schemes. That is all I ask, certainly that is not beyond your power, Dogolas." Armageddon replied smirking.
"Well, I must be leaving, I must make sure that the search goes well." With that, Armageddon opened another portal and, with a curt nod to Dogolas, left the plain.

Dogolas mentally smirked.
[glow=green,2,300]It shall be done.[/glow] He muttered to himself.
The messenger appeared nearby, and asked,
"Lord, it is not my place to question you, but... why not just send someone else to retrieve the crystal?"
Dogolas's eyes shifted over to the gargoyle, who began quaking under that glare.
[glow=green,2,300]Because Draethik was my most powerful minion to date, and only he can carry the crystal without its power consuming him. Now, if you don't mind, I have a dragon to find...[/glow] The abberation lord replied.
The gargoyle clenched his fists as Dogolas dissapated.
"I understand, my leige." He hissed before dissapating himself.
