Location: Somewhere near the cathedral.
The trees trembled and shook violently as the winds blew over and through them. The moons of Evelon were preparing to line up. The winds kept the night sky busy, bringing and driving away clouds. Dark, rain-heavy clouds moved slower than their lighter counterparts. The shadows they cast below them were as dark and ominous as the clouds themselves. At certain points, one would swear the darkest parts of the shadows shifted and writhed. Tonight wasn't the ideal night for any nocturnal activity. That is, unless one were up to no good...
Many of the sane Evelonians were safe in their homes. Dens, caverns, houses and hotels were all closed for the night. Not many souls would brave this brewing storm. None of the permanent residents near the cathedral could be found. From the moment the sun had set, all creatures sprinted, flew or hopped to a hiding place. The occasional rustle of under brush could be heard but not for long as the sound would suddenly stop. It was like something muted the disturbance or the creature had found its hiding place.
One steady beat did not stop though. Someone was treading through this area with purpose. Most likely the owner of those footsteps was up to no good.....and he wasn't. He was seething inside. All of his pent-up jealousy and rage could be felt. Red eyes glowed faintly in the darkness. A break in the clouds. The moons shined on the shielupe below as he made his way up the no longer grand stairs of the cathedral. The spikes on the collar around his neck glimmered faintly. A flash of lightning and the roll of thunder seconds after signalled the rain to start. It came suddenly in pouring showers the moment D'karth entered the darkness of the cathedral. On this night, Lya Pointa definitely drew the darkness to it. As the rains poured outside and water dripped through cracks and holes in the ceiling, D'karth had already lit the first of many candles at the altar. He had to blow off dust and brush away cobwebs for each candle. The warmth of the fires gradually grew but he did not care. He was there for a purpose and that purpose would be served tonight.
