the lich lord leaves with him telling the skeletons make sure nothing happens to our newest member
The room falls silent, and the only thing that can be heard as you leave is the cackling of the two skeletons.
A few hours pass. Inside of the cell, the man is sitting huddled in one corner, while his wife and daughter sit across the cell in the opposite corner. “I’m sorry.” he mutters. The wife and daughter remain silent.
As this happens, Commander Serkos arrives at the cell. “No, I’m sorry.” he speaks up. “You are a victim of circumstance. But I cannot help you, nor can you help yourself. And let me warn you; If you refuse to give in to your urges and fall to your hunger…” he looks to the woman and child. “They will not be spared.” Serkos turns and leaves, woefully silent.
The daily bumble of the city ensues. Kaito opened his eyes, squinting at the bright sun. He gets up, dusting himself off the cold night. He reaches for his gourd, but a light shake reveals that he has a lack of remaining wine. Shucks, he was out of ingredients for wine too. He took his bag and looked at the remaining money, and sighs. He wearily trudges towards the nearest Churo bank. As he walked towards the VIP area, the employees watched in disbelief as a rugged vagabond entered the sacred area, and even more so after they see the manager bring up scores of notes into a roughed-up sling bag. Kai bowed as he took his leave.
As he walked out of the bank, he took note of a poster claiming need for meta humans. An unusual request, and he walked to take a closer look. Ah, another of those underground mafias… He thought. I have my life easy now, why would I…
The Nexus? He gasped as he saw the advocation. This may prove interesting… But first, a bottle of rice wine…
the next day the lich lord prepares all of his generals and commanders in the war room
Dragon, with his mood ruined after the spilled wine stains his shoes (though he did that himself, no one dared to point that out), gives a visit to the wine shop that had sold him the wine.
As he walks through the door, a tense atmosphere decends into the room. His face and identity are no secret to public. And he likes it exactly as it is. The pale faced somelier is a perfect target for his irritation.
Dragon: …the wine you sold is unsatisfying. I think you remember what I said before buying it?
“P-please spare me! That was the best wine we owned! Please, have mercy!”
Hearing the man’s pathetic plead, Dragon remains impassive. In truth, the wine is nothing but excellent. He only wants a reason to justify what he would do next.
“I’m in a sour mood today, so be glad I’m granting you a quick death,” he says in a flat tone as he draws a pistol from his pocket and shoots the man at his head.
He doesn’t have time to shout. His corpse is frozen in an expression of fear, of terror knowing the coming of death without being able to stop it.
A gunshot explodes. Screaming can be heard outside. Dragon can see one of the would-be visitor outside trembling, dialling the police.
“At least I won’t be bored,” he mutters to himself, among the employees and guests laying flat on their stomach.
Serkos is seen waiting in the war room. Next to him, you find two people who look relatively human. You know both of these men; Sergent Rey and General Zarin.
Rey is a scruffy looking man with long grey hair and a beard. General Zarin is much more eloquent. Both of these men are vampires, as most skeletons raised aren’t intelligent, Serkos being the exception.
As you enter, you hear “Ugh, I am not a morning person.” Rey yawns. “Why are we up so late for?” As you enter, all 3 men fall silent and salute you.
A nervous looking man is gathering moss under a huge tree. The air seems to glitter around him.
The girl Edgey mc edgeson sees walks off to the Nexus ( I legit forgot his name so i called him edgey mc edgeson)
Callinety Falls
E: Wierd girl.
Takes out a sandwich
E:Then eat it. Dunno what you guys eat.
The creature purrs and rapidly devours half the sandwich. She nuzzles Edgeshadow’s leg and the purring intensifies.
E: Thank freaking god.
E: Now do I kill it or…
shrugs
I’ll let it be.
E: Now wheres that damn woman.
Edgeshadow runs back into the Nexus.
