(Synn)<br/><br/>A large ominous man entered the room where the ritual was taking place. His robes were black with a glowing blue trim. His shoulders were covered in the skulls of a large predator. His neck was adorned with the teeth of a bear, and his hood shrouded his face. Strips of gray cloth flowed out beneath his chest line that had ancient hieroglyphics imprinted on the fabric. He stood off to the far left corner while the dark mage did her worst. The dark mage spoke in a foreign tongue calling on the devils of the darkness to appear and do her bidding. The candle flames shot up about three feet as she rose her hands into the air, and then, she dropped to her knees in pain, screaming.<br/><br/>“Ahhhh what is this!” she yelled as she clawed at her head.<br/><br/>“That my dear is the Goddess Neema waging war against you” he spoke in a deep and guttural voice as he leaned against the wall watching her, “Get up and try again Azurine,” he said as he lifted his hand upwards and made her stand.<br/><br/>She nodded her head at him and then continued to speak. You could hear thunder and lightning outside of the walls of the castle. The sky had grown an eerie blackish green as it swirled above the north tower. People from across the kingdom looked up to the hellish skies and observed winged things descending from the heavens, breathing fire and roaring their descent. She finished her summoning spell and closed the circle, dousing out each candle with the tips of her fingers as she heard her skin sizzle each time. The dragons would wait in the courtyard patiently for their Mistress.<br/><br/>“They are here,” she said as she looked to Maddox for approval.<br/><br/>He pushed himself off the wall and walked towards her. She instinctually took a few steps back in fear as he came forward. He placed his hand on her pale cheek and bore into her emerald eyes with his own blackened orbs. “Excellent,” he said, and then in one blow, he had backhanded her to the floor. She turned to look up at him, blood trickling out of the side of her mouth where his ring hit her face. “You fuck up like that again, and I will have your head girl!” he growled as he turned to walk out of the room. A tear fell from her eye as she picked herself up off the floor. She wiped the blood from her mouth and then proceeded outside to the courtyard to meet her new pets.
