IN THE PREVIOUS CHAPTERS:
A Messenger of Night, an evil spirit magically evoked by the Night Lord, penetrated into the erotic dreams of Queen Artemis of Troygrove, assuming the shape of her most desired object of lust...herself.
After having successfully seduced the Queen, the Messenger opened a portal through the huge mirror located in the Queen's bedchamber, through which the Night Lord had manifested Himself to Artemis and enslaved her with His powers of mind control.
And now, after a night of profound brainwashing and indoctrination, Artemis is ready to wake up to begin her new life as slave of the Darkness...

Note from the Author: this chapter as well as the next were originally intended to be a single one. However, as I found it was taking much longer than expected to me to complete the work, I have decided to split it in two, so I could publish at least a part sooner than later. Hope you will enjoy it, comments and feedbacks are always welcome.

When Artemis started to regain her senses, dawn had already began to rise. The first, tenuous rays of the morning sun were filtering through the open glass door leading to the wide terrace, illuminating her bedchamber with a soft, warm, amber aura, as the distant sound of the seagulls was brought to her ears by the fresh morning breeze.
She found herself to be still laying on the cold and hard floor of the room, her bare back leaning against the glassy surface of the broad wall mirror, every muscle of her body feeling painfully stiff and sore from the long hours she had passed there, completely immobile, unconscious in that uncomfortable position.
The memories of the night just passed were nothing more than a messy tangle of confused images within her head. Vaguely, she remembered fragments of a totally immersive erotic dream, the naked shapes of a woman in the depths of a luscious forest, and a great, dark face, so horrible and threatening at first sight, but also so strangely, so incredibly charming and attractive at the same time.
Slowly, with a considerable effort for her sore muscles, she struggled to get on her feet. Feeling weak and unsecure on her legs like a newborn fawn, she attempted to move a first step away from the mirror. A sudden sense of dizziness blurred her vision as she did so, almost causing her to fall unconscious on the floor once again, forcing her to stop and to put a hand on the wall in order to avoid losing her balance. Her head was spinning terribly, as if she had spent the whole night drinking strong alcoholics in some dirty tavern in the city's slums.
"I feel so damn weak..." she thought in frustration, as the memories of the incredible events of the night before slowly started to surface into her conscious mind, like bubbles emerging from below the surface of deep water. A flush of excitement spread through her body, as she began to remember that beautiful woman, that perfect copy of herself, how she had emerged from the mirror just to seduce her so irresistibly, to overcome her resistances with the immeasurable pleasure she had been able to bring her, before eventually presenting her...to Him.
Some moments passed as Artemis stood still, her eyes closed, breathing deeply in the attempt to regain the control over her body and over her mental faculties. Once she started to feel more secure on her legs, her eyes began to wander around the room, searching with aroused hope for any sign of the presence of her other self, the memory of her soft lips, of her delicate touches on the naked skin so vividly impressed in her mind.
She desperately needed her. Again.
"Are you here?" she murmured insecurely, hesitantly, as afraid that someone outside the room might hear her.
Nobody answered her. The Queen's ample bedchamber was totally desert and silent as it was the night before. Only the sounds coming from the open window and the flowing of the curtains moved by the breeze were giving to the room any semblance of life.
For a moment, Artemis wondered if everything she had experienced could have been merely a dream, just an unusual, intense, deep dream which caused her to wander unconsciously across the chamber like a sleepwalker. But, a moment later, the profound awareness of the transformation she had undergone during that night became fully clear to her mind and senses.
In a sudden wave of realization, she discovered how she was not perceiving herself anymore as Artemis, the Queen of Troygrove. That voluptuous body of hers may have remained the same, but a new personality, a new identity dwelt now into that flesh. Now, only Artemis the slave was existing, the devoted and obedient servant of the true and only King of the world: M'laal Azul...the Night Lord.
Her lips curved in a luscious smile, as the thought of her Master awoke in her a compelling desire of total obedience and submission. With a tremor of thrilled excitement she looked back at the mirror. The imposing image of the supreme, supernatural Being who had manifested Himself to her during the night to claim her and to ruthlessly subjugate her to His will was gone. At its place, her simple, nude reflection seemed to smile back at her, more provocative and desirable than ever.
Her eyes fixated on her naked forms, Artemis moved a step closer, admiring herself once more in the clear reflection of the mirror; she was the gorgeous woman as she always have been, but at a closer look, she spotted on that morning something different in her, a little, barely perceivable, however significant change; a sort of new, evil light was reflecting in her deep blue eyes, a spark which donated to her beautiful traits an expression which looked both sensual and perverse at the same time.
"The seducing face and the alluring eyes of a true servant of the Darkness" she thought pleased, feeling a sense of deep satisfaction mounting within herself, spreading and invading her whole being.
Once again she began to feel intensely aroused, as the desire for the pleasure of her senses arose strongly at the sight of her own nudity. But there was something different even about the nature her arousal now. It wasn't anymore the vision of her own flesh to trigger her desire, as before; rather, it was the new, full awareness about how her body, as well as her own pleasure and relief, were now absolute property and under the control of the Master; from now on, Him and only Him would have decided if and when she would have been deserving and worthy to experience the peak of the pleasure, as a reward of her loyal servitude and devotion.
"This too is a consequence of Master's work" she realized, noticing with with amazed astonishment how deep and invasive the transformation that Night Lord had operated over her had been, another unmistakable proof how the totality of His superior power over her weaker, human mind.
Turning her back to the mirror, Artemis slowly walked toward the large open glass door and stepped outside over the broad terrace of the Royal Palace, in her glorious nudity, enjoying freely on her bare skin the cool caress of the morning breeze blowing from the ocean on the west, and the first kisses of the tepid sun above.
It was an elevated terrace, from where it was possible to enjoy a wonderful sight of the city of Troygrove without any possibility of being spotted by any undesired eyes from below. It was in this private place that, during the warm summer nights, the Queen was used to held her orgies together with her slave girls, in those rare times in which she desired of the contact of other naked feminine bodies on her skin.
"Those useless sluts" she thought almost with disgust. Artemis would have had no further need of them now. They too would have been part of the massive offering of women that she would have made to her Master, once the proper time would had come. And at that point, He would have decided of their destiny.
While she was laying unconscious during the night, Artemis's mind had been deeply indoctrinated, as a continuous stream of images and the gurgling voice of the Master had flown into her brain, invading it completely and instilling within concepts, desires and commands. His voice, deep and authoritative, had spoken to her in an obscure language, something that Artemis haven't heard before in her life; however, for some unnatural reason, she had found the sense of His words to be absolutely clear to her.
All of the women of Mur must have in the end belonged to Him. The worthless ones, women of low lineage and those capable to provide only the basic level of sexual energy, would have joined the ranks of His invincible armies, fighting for Him to subdue new lands and to further expand the boundaries of His dominion. Others would have used as labor slaves in the dark depths of mines of Gloomdor, working hardly to extract metals and minerals which would then be used to forge weapons of destruction and other evil artifacts of power. And, eventually, other ones would have served as sacrificial victims for His occult rituals and for His secrets experiments of black magic.
