The arms lower.
Re-appear.
The daggers that rest in the figures hands, give a simultaneous 'whoosh' and Blood flows across the altar.

"Cain....
My father....
Feast upon the Living...."

As you blink your eyes you find the figure to be gone. What rest is the remains of once bright burning candles and a gallon of Blood...
 

Why would you leave somthin you love here to die? In the cold on the grove, like a concrete rose? You the fool aint I.... Now i might wither in die on the same streets where you left me... now im yellin lord let me in! I dont know where to begin since I lost your love... then again your love was strictly caus of the drugs... I dont know wether to hug, or to fill you with slugs... Theres a hole in my heart from all the pain that you caused... With no direction, you left your first born love... give or take a few, cause my hate for you grew over the years through blood, sweat and tears...
I wanted to be just like you... my father figure
Now, i want to fight you... you prick hata
left me alone... and parts of me never outgrown the fact that left home with your ego so strong.

With nothin much to live for and daymn ready to die young, im the shadow behind the gun ... look at what i've become... The fear of many hataz the rival of many playaz.. the love that runs deepest through the hearts of street hustleraz... raised in the ghetto, by the ghetto taught young to bust the metal... thats how beef got settled...

How the hell can you sleep at night? Knowin you wronged the only thing you ever did right? Despite the loss, i stretched the lenght of the short... and got a new father, who's name is New York
love,
Your only forgotten son

The powder blows out of the open Cathedral doors. To be lost forever.

"To all who suffered a loss; you have my deepest sympathies."

"Thank you for your sacrifice.
The Gods will never forget this grateful dedication to the Powers of the Blood.
You are praised, my son.

"Are you the one they call Sima Yi...?"

It appears to be a Cainite. Or how humanity likes to call them; Vampire.
With a slight sence of Fear in his voice,
Sima Yi answers the creature...

"Then this is for you."

The creature hands you a Black Cross.
Worn downside up (or upside down) on a Silver necklace.
As you reach for the Item that will Bless your Requiem, the creature let's a terrifying Howl of Death.

Dear Lord:

I pray to you that all of those that have died in the recent attack on the United States are allowed into your kingdom. I like to think that you have your reasons for making things like this happen and that you had a reason to kill all those people. I pray that they find their rightfull places in heaven with you standing among them. I pray for all the victims' families, and survivors. Many of whom are alive only by your grace and loving nature. I pray that you can give the worlds leaders the guidance needed to do what is right in the future.

Amen

*Sprinkles auspicious signs onto Kerrick and Nethya*

*Offers a tangerine and lights three candles (Buddha, Confucious, Taoist) to Lilith*
 

In one hand, holding the Orb of All,
the other, swiftly crircling the air.

"Darker Gods of the Blood, praised be the Cainites.
Hear my wishes as I command it.
Release Crovax from his eternal slumber.
Awake the King of Cainites.
I pray to you, o Darker Gods of the Blood."

Three tiny Goblins appear on the altar.

"MAKE YOUR SACRIFICE...", echoes through the cathedral.
Lillith speaks a word and a Katana blade shines in her hand.

SWIFT...SLASH...

Three Goblin heads roll over the floor.
The altar covered in Blood green as the Goblins.

"Let my words be heared and my wishes be granted!!!", the Queen shouts.
She smashes the Orb into pieces on the altar, in the center of the BloodPool.

Next to her, a Cainite creature appears.
Weakend and covered in Blood.

"Pray the Blood", the Queen whispers as she grabs Crovax by the arm and materialize...

Nothing remains but the altar, clean and covered with a thousand candles.
Through the church a Walnut sence can be smelled.
 

From nowhere, above the altar, da RaVeNouZ RaT materializes. Pierced by an arrow he falls on the altar and Incinerates.

On that spot, the Orb of All appears...
and dematerializes....

"I still can't believe it, Why did so many innocent have to die...????"

She rises on her knees, spreading her arms like a Sacred One.

"Think this over;

Today we have higher buildings and wider highways, but
Shorter temperaments and narrower points of view.

We spent more, but enjoy less…
We have bigger houses, but smaller families…
We have more compromises, but less time…
We have more knowledge, but less judgement…
We have more medicine, but less health…

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.
We talk to much, we love only a little, and we hate to much.

We reached the Moon and came back, but we find
Troublesome to cross our own street and meet our neighbors.
We have conquered the outer space, but not our inner space.

We have higher income, but less morals…
These are times with more liberty, but less joy…
With much more food, but less nutricians…

These are days in which two salaries come home, but
divorces increase.
These are times of finer houses, but more broken homes.

That’s why I propose, as from today;

You do not keep anything for a special occasion, because every day that you live is a special occasion.
Seek for knowledge, read more, sit on your front porch and admire the view without paying attention to the needs.

Pass more time with your family, eat your favourite food, visit the place you love.

Life is a chain of moments of enjoyment; it isn’t only survival.
Use your crystal goblets. Do not save your best perfume,
And use it every time you feel you want it.

Take out from your vocabulary phrases like “One of these days”,
And “Someday”.
Let’s write that letter we thought of writing “One of these days”.

Let’s tell our friends and family how much we love them.
That’s why, do not delay anything adding laughter and joy to your life.
Every day, hour, and minute are special…
And you don’t know if it will be your last…

If you’re to busy to take some minutes to send this message to someone you love,
And you tell yourself you will send it ‘one of these days’, just think that ‘some of these days’ can be very far, or even that you will not be there to see it…"

The Darker Queen lowers her arms, you can hear her sniff....
She dematerializes.....

Lillith, Darker Queen of Cainites, Goddess of the Blood, materializes in front of Shadow931.

"Your words are heard and your wishes are seen. The Gods of the Blood have accepted your offer, although it was a liitle on the greedy side, don't you think...?"

She steps forward, revealing her face in the light that shines through one of the cracks. Her hand rises and a dagger lays in it.

"This is my gift. Use it wisely my friend, for there is only one, and one day, I will return to claim it back...."

She presents, what appears to be a Black-cloured dagger. Shaped out of a metal that you've never seen before.
As your eyes rise up to thank your God for hearing your words and obeying your wishes, you find the One called Lillith to be gone.
Vanished into thin air leaving nothing but burning candles and the smell of walnuts.

Let me tell you a story Shadow...

The man lights a spirit candle, the light of it shortly flickers but soon surrounds the shrine with a pale ghostly light. The man sets himself on the cold stone floor and starts to tell.

Let me introduce myself, I'm Job Spyker and I came from a far away city, Ezrealith. It was a beautiful city, but something was lacking. On my 18th birthday something went totaly wrong, the city was struck by a meteor storm, and I was the only one of my family to survive. After the storm was over I fled the cursed place and hid away in the nearby caves. It was there that I had my first vision of the White...

Job Spyker thinks for some time, clearly not sure if he is telling too much at once.

I can tell you more if you wish, but anyhow, what it is all about is that one sentence I heard in my dream: Out of darkness grew the White.

Ah. A misunderstanding on my part. I apologise.
 

You see, wihout evil, good wouldn't have excisted. Likewise, without MacDonalds, the McChicken wouldn't have excisted, they are all nessecary opposites!
 

*creates a permanent teleportation pad, forevering linking the east and west sides of the Cathedral*

There, now I can go to either side effortlessly.

*lights a two-wick candle at both the east and west shrine*
 

Thus in this cave my first vision came to me. I saw darkness at first, complete and overwhelming darkness. Somewhere in that darkness though there was life, although abomination would be a better description, it was still a spark in this dark world. The Father told me that it was like this in the beginning. The world excisted in darkness and darkness was all, but the spirit of life caught hold in this unholy landscape. The first lifeforms began scuttling about the murky swamps. As time advanced these lifeforms evolved, some grew wings, some grew fins, but all adapted to the swamp. It was here that the great White first came into the world. Life had persisted, regardless the deadly conditions of life's surroundings, life conquered death for the first time in history. The Darkness was weakened by this and grew the great White. The White, being a child of darkness, was the total opposite of his feared father though, and sought to help life in need everywhere. For ages there was sort of a balance between father and child, the feared Darkness still held most of the world in his granite grip, but the White managed to uphold some bastions of life as sacred groves and flowery plains settled themselves in between the great swamps. After a time the Darkness couldn't stand it anymore though, and he resolved to conquer his child once and for all.

Man had evolved in the meantime and in the forest of Arguth lived a druid. His name is unknown to this very day, but he is revered and remembered as the great Father of the White. It is believed that he gave his live for the White so save him from his father Darkness. His spirit guided the White from thereafter and the White accepted him as his new father.

In this harsh times Darkness and the White still battle, but the White has a stronger position nowdays and the help of his new Father.

Job Spyker sighs. He thinks for a while, his eyes wandering of, then focuses anew.

Well Shadow, that's the short story, and probably not all of it. I'm just a young mage, and this vision of history came to me in a dream, so...

The room is lit by earie light of Floating Flames that rest high up in the Cathedral.
The entire ceiling is covered with the Bats that serve the Blood most, the Sengir Bats.
In most part of Dominaria, this beutiful creature is nearly extinct. It seems that all rest here.....

"De O Brachea......
Ohm Nema Narayana....."

The hypnotising Chants of the Banshees continues and rises in a climax.
At that point, all banshees dematerialize into thin air. The statue that was standing in the center of the room, is repleaced by a beatiful looking woman. Hair as black as ash and her eyes as red as the Blood that runs through her vains.

It is Lillith herself. The Darker Queen of Cainites, Goddess of the Blood, floats in the center of the pentagram....

"Praise be to Cain.....
Praise be to Cain.....
Praise be to Cain....."

Spoken these words, the Queen lifts her arms up high, as if holding an item towards the sky.

A bolt of Lightning shoots from the very mid of the swarm that sleeps on the ceiling. It runs through the entire body of Lillith, which falls to the ground.

As you cover your ears, for the noise that suddenly rises, you fall to the ground as protection for the millions of Bats that shoot out the door.

As you rise you find the room to be empty. The only thing that is seen is the pentagram on the ground, pieced in the center by the huge marble statue of the Horned Rat.

*lights a candle for those in need*

Ohh, powers of Light and Dark, grant me strength for the coming upheaveal...
 

Gosh! I just hate extradimensional pockets.

The young mage starts to pull out something big of his robe. When you watch closer you can see what it is. It's a... it's a flowerpot!

Yeah, that is much better. Now for something to fill it with. *smiles* Ah, now that I live at Verdy's Temple I'm sure he's willing to donate some trees.

With a poof Job Spyker dissapears, only to return a mere seconds later, one small tree in both his hands.

Stupid! Stupid! Forgot the other flowerpot! *gets another flowerpot out of his pockets* Now lets plant my two little friends here!

The man is working for a short time, but the result is beautiful. Looking at the trees you can almost imagine gow it was for the first people to see the forest of the great White, peacefull and quiet.

That's that, now just one thing. Shadow, I really appreciate your offer of protection and I will gladly accept it. Thank you.

*Waits*
 

For Jenna, Tim, and the others of Caplin

Oh God help me! I must now return to sanity and the real world
 

On the place, in the center of the pentagram, where the statue was devoured in front of your eyes, now stands the Darker Queen of Cainites....

"In times of need, I will always be there for you....", She says, while Her Blood red eyes gaze upon you.

"If I may quote:
O Mighty Crosis, immortal Lilith, bloody La-Maggra, and all other gods of death. Give me power and strength to prepare for the Final Harvest.

I will grant at least one wish in which you will be granted with my help..."

The Goddess of the Blood raises her hands into a crusefix position.
The her hands shoot towards you, while She teleports.
She touches your head and a chilling cold flows through your body.
The, from head to toe, you get the feeling as if a warm liquid is streaming through your vains.

Then She dematerializes leaving a faint smell of walnuts thrushing into your nose.

Millions of Sengir Bats that were resting at the top of the Northern parts, awake in a burst of squeeks. As you dive to the ground, evading the Blanket of the Blood, you notice that the tremendous statue stands again, in the center of the pentagram.

Then all fall silent......

Pfew, for a moment I thought my candle was out, tht the spirit of the White was fading. I see it's as strong as it ever was, the White will prevail!

The white mage prays for a little while, then rises and walks towards Shadows new shrine.

I will pray for thee!

Job Spyker fetches a virgin goat from under his robe and sacrifices it, making sure that the blooddrops don't waste his robe.

Take this as an offering o mighty Shadow!

The man prays for a while, cleans up the mess and then leaves the Cathedral again to ride on the Merry-Go-Round at Verdy's temple.
 

i grant u long life and good luck!
 

Can you sacrifice virgin males?

What about Capricorn...isn't that a goat-fish? Can you sacrifice that?

Dang sacrificial politics.

After a while something materializes before the White shrine, it's a gift from the White to Shadow931. Job Spyker walks towards Shadow's shrine, prays, sacrifices a siamese carrot-twin, cleans up the orange mess and leaves behind the gift for Shadow.

Job Spyker waves his hands and suddenly a flowery field lies before the White shrine.

I like it!

The man prays to the White and then walks to Shadow's shrine. There he starts praying again, after a while stands up, conjures a lizard king, has it executed by a conjured henchman, whereafter the king is burned as a sacrifice to Shadow931. For a last time, Job Spyker waves his hands, to clean the place, then he walks away.

Fromout the Northern pats of the Cathedral, the Unholy shrines of the Blood, an amazing chant can be heared. Hundreds of long forgotten words, penetrate your memory as the chanting reaches a climax.

"THE TIME HAS COME...
THE LONG ERA OF FORGOTTENNESS IS OVER...
THIS IS THE NEW AGE...
THE END IS NOW...!!"

A dark voice rumbles through the Cathedral

"Yes, o mighty Lords of Decay.
Send us thy prayers.
Send us thy sins.
We are thy childe.", a beatiful voice replies.

Then all fall silent.
The rain has stopped.
The wind is gone.
The clouds have been swept apart.

Throughout the Cathedral a sence of walnuts penetrates every nostril.....

*teleports away in a cloud of green smoke*

You seek the knowledge of elves? Well, I can provide some general background information on them, or I can address specific groups of elves...for now, I'll briefly describe the elven race in general:

Elves:

Primarily forest-dwelling creatures, most Dominarian elves can be identified by the following physical features: large pointed ears, pale skin, long faces, lengthy and skinny bodies. Elves consider themselves part of nature, and worship nature as a whole. Most elves worship the plant, and its spirit Gaea, the provider and sustainer of life. Other sects, however, worship other dieties, such as Freyalise. Elves are very secluded people, often xenophobic. They hide within their forest homes, diligently protecting and nuturing the forest, while keeping a watchful eye of invaders and trespassers. The weapons of choice amongst elves are the bow and arrow, as well as calling upon the forest itself to help get rid of enemies. Also, elves are known to live quite long, hundreds of years. Finally, most elven hierarchies are quite stable, I can't recall ever hearing of an elves uprising, or revolt, which says something for elves' respect for proper authority, age, and leadership.

The following is a *very* brief and *very* general description of the elven race on Dominaria. I hope this provides the answers you wanted, otherwise, please ask other questions, and I shall try to answer them.

Hope this helps!
 

I will gladly share my knowledge with you. However, it is late tonight, so you will have to wait until tomorrow.

My apologies,

Kerrick, Sleeper Agent
 

*goes to Nethya's Shrine*

My troubled Lady, I will be here watching over you for as long as necessary. I love and care for you with all my heart, I want to help you defeat your personal demons. You have but to ask, and I shall be here, ready to offer my love, support, and friendship.

*kneels down, and begins silent vigil to his glorious love Nethya*
 

Oh Gaea, my mistress, please bless this potion so that my Temple may grow and further bask in your glory.

::feels that the potion is properly blessed and leaves through the gate to his temple::
 

It makes my heart leap, to hear that you are doing better, my love!!

*lights a double-wicked candle, and lays to roses before the shrine*
 

Dear Ephemeron,

The arms for your Avatar are as good as ready. But they will be my masterpiece. As soon as all the preparations are ready, I will bring them to you.

*he walks over to one of the benches and sits down, and watches all the other deities being worshiped.

: Rudetski walks into the research and medical center of Spykerpleister, supreme healer. He is carrying what seems to be enormous limbs of some kind, with a huge claw at one end. Green-white scales cover the arms, and over the whole length a beautiful silvery line can be seen that splits up at the wrists in five separate lines that end at the sharp nails on the claws. :
"Ah, just the man I was looking for" Rudetski says to Spykerpleister.
"I made this bionic arms for Ephemeron, owner of the Cathedral of All.
These are the limbs of an Avatar. I could of course use magic to meld the arms with that creature, but there are too many ways to disenchant them in this plane of reality.
Could you hand me some ointment or something to really make the arms part of that creature?
It would really mean a lot to me. I can pay in cash or, if you are in need of some hard-to-find artifacts you can come over to my shop to take a look. I'm pretty sure we can make a deal of some kind......

. . . . . . . . . .

Very well Rudetski, I've got two options for you one is an ointment for those arms made of the DNA of the Avatar of Woe so It's destructive force is immense and the other is an ointment made of the DNA of Kamal, Pit fighter wich will increase both strength and dexterity. Just put the ointment on the arms before attaching and they'll become mentally controllable like if they were your own.
These ointments cost me years of experimenting, as a reward I would take a scroll-rack for my Hall of Treatments so people can read the newspaper and book of treatments easier.

. . . . . . . . . .

"Thank you, Spykerpleister, for your contribution to this effort. I think I can help you right here and now....."
: Rudetski takes the Index Finger of Knowledge from one pocket and something that looks like a black stone tablet with very fine white printing on it. He says, seemingly to no one in particular :
"Scroll Rack"
: The fine print on the tablet changes rapidly and after a few seconds one line blinks in yellow print: Scroll Rack; 16.
Rudetski puts away the tablet and the Index Finger of Knowledge and makes some mystic gestures. In the middle of the room a Scroll Rack appears in a flash of bright blue light. :
"Here you are, my friend. A pleasure doing business with you. And if you would excuse me, I need to go and see Ephemeron."
: Rudetski takes the Avatar of Woe-ointment from Spykerpleister, heaves the arms over his left shoulder and leaves for the Cathedral of All. :

---

The arms are covered with reflective scaling and I made sure that they are excellently suited for the use of magic. See the silver lining? It is mana-metal, forged by a friendly Dwarven Armorer to withstand the most brutal magical forces.
And with the help of Spykerpleister they will be real arms, not just artificial.

For this I ask not for money.
I will come to your wish shop soon. We will talk more about it there....."

This is the time...
The Seven Seals of Darkness have apeared...
Come to me, oh Great Lords of Decay...
Cast thy Wrath upon me and feed my everlasting need for Blood..."

the sky above the Northern Parts, begin to crack.
A bolt of red Lightning shoots out fromout the cloud, through the top of the Shrines of the Blood.
There, in the center of the Pearled Pentagram, Lillith holds Her arms in the air, forming a crusified position.

The bolt shoots towards Her head at which it halts and forms a Ball.
Two smaller strokes of energy emerge from the Ball and enter the Goddess' body through Her hands.

Then Darkness falls...

The entire Shrines of the Blood, are cloacked in a thick black fog...

Elves of the forest of Llanowar could be considered the extreme of introverted, xenophobic elves. They worshipped the Freyalise as a Goddess, rather than Gaea. Similarly, the maro-sorcerer of Llanowar, Molimo, also believed Freyalise is the true Goddess. In terms of government, the forest was divided into seven elfhames, each one independent of the other, yet all were subordinate to the forest as a whole (perhaps Lord Magnus was one a ruler of one of the elfhames). They shun all intruders that trespass into the forest (remember their penalty for trespassing? "One bone broken for every twig snapped underfoot"). However, they weren't always this wary of strangers. As I'm sure you recall, Rofellos, an Llanowar elf, was sent to Yavimaya as an emissary between the two forests. While their, he learn about the forest's rapid evolution, as well as taught the elves some things of his own (Llanowar profanities for one). In spite of their secrecy and distrust of outsiders, they banded together with the Coalition, under Eladamri, who was considered by the Llanowar elves to be a scion of Freyalise, sent to lead them to victory. Unfortunately, a majority of Llanowar, including its inhabitants, was destroyed during the Phyrexian Invasion, especially by plague bombs. However, Eladamri continued to lead an elite group of Llanowar elves, the Steel Leaf Elves, throughout the Coalition. It is unclear how many Llanowar elves survived the Apocalypse, yet if Odyssey is any indication, the entire elven race may be severally diminished, if it hasn't become extinct.

Yavimayan Elves:

Similar to their Llanowar counterparts, the elves of Yavimaya are reclusive. On theory that I just had is that the Yavimaya elves are actually the descendants of the Fyndhorn elves, since Yavimaya was where the Fyndorn elves fled after their forest was flooded during the Ice Age. Perhaps, throughout the years, the elves changed from worshipping Freyalise to worshipping Gaea, maybe because Freyalise's World Spell caused Fyndhorn to flood. There a few key differences between the two groups. First, Yavimayan elves worship Gaea as the Goddess of Earth, not Freyalise. Next, Yavimaya elves are a higher-evolved form of elven life, thanks to Multani's acceleration of the forest's evolution (in order to combat the Phyrexian invasion). In my opinion, Llanowar elves seem to be the outcasts of elven society, while Yavimaya elves appear to be more gentle and nurturing of their forest, not to say that Llanowar elves don't protect Llanowar, it just seems to me that Llanowar elves are more hardened, while Yavimaya elves seem more gentle. Another key difference is that the Yavimaya elves did far better in the invasion than Llanowar elves. The accelerated evolution of the forest, combined with Multani's power and the kavus, was able to defeat the Phyrexian attack on Yavimaya. However, the forest still suffered greatly, especially after Multani transplanted it next to Urborg during the Apocalypse. Whether forest survived after the Apocalypse, I can't say.

I hope this answers the questions you had, please feel free to ask other questions. However, be warned that you may have to wait for those answers as well.

Hope this helps!

I'm sorry if my description seemed confusing, but yes, Rofellos died before Eladamri even was introduced.

As far as mating rituals...I really can't say...I could offer some personal opinion/guesses, but they are just that, my opinions, lacking in strong evidence. My suggestion is to study the relationship between Eladamri and Lin Sivvi, while they didn't mate, its the closest example of elvish affection that I can think of.

As far as my opinions, I would think elvish mating rituals be would resevered, ceremonial, and nature-worshipping. I sacrifice, or prayer to Gaea/Freyalise might be appropriate. I sense that the male would be the dominate party, while the female would be submissive. A big part of the emotional aspect of the entire experience maybe directed towards the idea that mating is from improvement of the whole tribe/clan/village/elfhame and that is a duty beyond just two mortal elves, something that must be done the assure the future of the elven race. To be frank, elves very reserved people, who don't display emotion outwardly that much, so I have a hard time imagining how the mating rituals would work.

I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help, hopefully, my ramblings have given you something to think about.

Hope this helps!
 

which one would you chose?
I know crossbreeding is bad, but, they are all so beatiful..
who would you chose?

The best advice I can give is to follow your heart, and pick the one you love the most, assuming the feeling is mutual. Personally, I wouldn't make the decision on physical beauty alone. I prefer my women to have something of substance underneath their exteriors, which is why I care for Nethya so much. I can't make the choice for you, I'm a afraid. Assuming they all love you the same, I would pick the one that you care for most and that your heart *truly* desires, no one else can make that decision for you.

Hope this helps!

I said that I want substance in addition to beauty, they're not mutually exclusive concepts. However, if I had to choose one aspect, I would prefer substance to beauty. Besides, Nethya knows how I feel, so I shouldn't have to defend myself.

If Lillith loves you the most, and you love her the most, then in my eyes, regardless of the breeding issues, the choice is clear.

Wise and Prudent Edit: *hands Rofellos a tissue, you dry his tear-stained eyes and cheeks.*

The Nothern Part of the Cathedral is surrounded by a blanket of Sengir Bats.
Thousands...
Millions...
Even more...

Beneath the Swarm of the Night, an even greater number of Rats, is skirmishing around the floor. Squeeking their way through the Maze of Rats, they run around in all directions, without bumping in to each other.

Above the squeeking frenzy of the Blanket of Death, the voice of the darker Queen of Cainites can be heared.

"This is it...
This is the time...
The Seven Seals of Darkness have apeared...
Come to me, oh Great Lords of Decay...
Cast thy Wrath upon me and feed my everlasting need for Blood..."

the sky above the Northern Parts, begin to crack.
A bolt of red Lightning shoots out fromout the cloud, through the top of the Shrines of the Blood.
There, in the center of the Pearled Pentagram, Lillith holds Her arms in the air, forming a crusified position.

The bolt shoots towards Her head at which it halts and forms a Ball.
Two smaller strokes of energy emerge from the Ball and enter the Goddess' body through Her hands.

Then Darkness falls...

The entire Shrines of the Blood, are cloacked in a thick black fog...

And the scary darkness. Never forget the scary darkness.
 

In the Northern Parts of the Cathedral, a shatter can be heared. The breaking sound of glass echoes through the Greater Halls. Torches hanging on either side of the Hall of the Damned, lit simultanious by an unseen power.

Inside the Shrines of the Blood, Lillith stands in front of the huge statue, that resembles the Horned Rat, Darker God of Rats, Harbinger of Disease. Her arms are risen high up in the air and Her eyes are closed. On the Higher Platter, on the Northside of the shrines, 13 banshees float about 3 feet of the ground. They are chanting long Forgotten Words of the Damned, and pray to the Lords of Decay.

"De O Bracheas....", the Hymns of the Banshees ends.
"Ohm Nema Narayana....", the Darker continues.

"I am the Goddess of the Blood and the time has come to rise the Chosen One..."

A Black_Red whirlpool apears at the ceiling. It looks like some kind of Dimensional Portal.

"Choose thy being...", a dark voice speaks fromout the Portal. Actually it are multiple dark voices that are speaking simultanious.

"As the being, is chosen the one that calles himself sir Kenneth.
The Prophecy has forfilled, he has seen his destiny...", the Goddess replies.

The statue in front of Lillith starts to shake and tremble. In an instant it is dematerialized, and sir Kenneth materializes in the center of the Unholy Pentagram, the former place of the Horned Rat.
Uncertain of what just has occured, sir Kenneth gazes upon the Darker Queen.
Her eyes are opened and the BloodRed gaze of Death gazes back upon sir Kenneth.

"Hell...", before sir kenneth could even finish his greetings, the Goddess cries out a terrifying howl and leaps towards his being. Her hands are replaced by claw-like images, which grab him at the chest. Her mouth opens as She bring Her blood-dripping teeth towards his neck. The soft sound of penetrated flesh brings the Blood Goddess in a total frenzy. She smashes one of Her claws into sir kenneth's chest and retrieves a bumping heart. She brings the heart to Her mouth and bites....

Sir Kenneth cries out in pain, before he realizes he is not in torture. He does not feel the action of his Darker Queen. Than the Blood that runs through his vains starts doing its work.

A terrible sence penetrates his thoughts.
He is thirsty...
As he gazes upon the Goddess' beautiful appearance, his mind becomes clear.

"Take it...", the Goddess whispers, and sir Kenneth lets his teeth sink into Her wrist. Blood runs alongst his chin, across his neck, over his chest...
The frenzy that he so staticly feels, brings him in a euphoric trance.

As he opens his eyes again, he finds the Shrines to be dark. Two candles are burning brightly on the Southern Altar, which is dedicated to Lillith Herself.
Sir Kenneth crowls towards the shrine and starts praying words, he never had in his mind before. The native tongue of the Cainites.

(transl.)"Darker Queen, thank you for your blessing, thank you for your love.
We will make the perfect couple...", sir Kenneth prays.
A soft whisper of His love returns..."
"You have taken the first step towards the Blood Oath...Go with my love, my Dark Prince..."

Then all fall silent again...

(dedicated to sir Kenneth, Chosen One of the Blood. Praise be to you, Almighty Lord of Death)

Lilith: Congratulations, I guess.......

Kenneth: how could you? You were one of the mayor forces of Good. The remark that you were born evil is nonsense. And although I have a special place for Lilith in my hart I find it hard to see you gang up with the forces of the dark.
I am sorry, but I can no longer visit your Monastery."

: Rudetski bows gracefully and leaves for his shop to see if something has come up in the last few days. :

Well ok, perhaps peace and harmony aren't the right words, but can you at least keep from killing each other till you get outside?

Dangit. I was good. I said I was born evil and I meant in that last chapter I was re-born.

And I was the LIGHT God of Flames since the last chapter. Then I became the Lord of Cainites. So I guess now I'm evil. If you still want to have the good ol'Monastery you now own it.

If I truly want to live a Cainite I have I have to change my name. Hero's Honor is a little to good...

And Rudestki, you spelled heart wrong.
 

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

"Mwah, hah,hah,ha...."

As you walk further to investigate the origin of this wicked laughter, you find yourself entering the Northern Parts of the Cathedral.

From behind a door, at the end of the Hall of terror, which leads to the Shrines of the Blood, a conversation takes place.
As you place your ear against the door, you hear a Darker voice mumble an unspoken language.
The reply that follows is made by a person you know, and recognize as Lillith, Goddess of the Blood.

"You really mean that....?
Thanks..."

Curious as you are, you open the door, to this 'public' shrine.
In the corner stands the Darker Queen of Cainites. In front of Her some being dematerializes as you enter the room.

"Behold my latest creation!!", the Goddess speaks towards you and points towards the southern wall.

There you see 5 marble tables placed against the wall. Three on the right, and one on the left, hold a statue. One is empty.

When you come closer, you recognize the personal images of the statues.
(from right, to left; )
WizO_Jedi, Tredain, Goddess of the Gods; WizO_Mel, one empty, and the statue of Kerrick, the Sleeper Agent.

Above the tables, floats a marble plaque, which says;
Shrine of the Mod Gods

Immediately you fall down to your knees, and pray. Pray to the Mod Gods.
Silently, the Darker Queen of Cainites dematerializes, whispering Ancient Dark Words.

"Praise the Mod Gods, Hail to the Goddess of the Gods, WizO_Mel...."

My family, my friends. My mother, my father. I have long turned my back on the Dark, on the Blood. But I ask that you remember your daughter and kin. I ask that you remember one who once served you faithfully. I ask that you remember the deeds I once did so willingly in your name.

I stand before you now, the woman who has grown from the child you nourished.

She opens her arms wide to the Night, as if challenging the watching hoardes to recognise her for what she now is.

You took a little girl, lost and alone, and turned her to your ways. Accept me now as the product of your actions. Accept me now as the sucessor to your beliefs. Accept me now as what I am.

She can't help but sneak a glance around her to see if anyone saw her prayer to the Dark, to the Blood. Though whether she wanted people to notice or not is something she hasn't yet decided.

No, not 'me'. I just found it on one of my trawls through an images site I like and I felt that it summed up the mood I feel at the moment with all that is happening in the 'real' world.

BTW - from now on, prayers posted by me in ((...)) are Out Of Character. Those not, are in. ))
 

Ephemeron,

I'm sorry to hear that all is not well for you.
I hope to see you back on the board soon.

I did however accomplish the enormous feat of creating the perfect arms for your Avatar.
I would like to hear (when you're good and ready, there is no hurry) what you think of them...
I'm sure you'll visit my shop when that time comes.

Bye for now and good luck, friend.
 

*Sends 'hell money' to his master*
 

She concentrates hard, and out of a spire of Sapphire and Black, an altar appears. On the altar is a single statue. It's form is nebulous, seeming to shift as soon as you concentrate on one aspect of its shape. All you can be certain of, is that to see it's true form, is to experience death first hand.

Father of my Childhood, Brother of my Teens, Child of my Life, you guided me when there was no one else to turn to. You shaped my life when I was left alone. To you I owe the thanks of my existence.

She draws a knife from its sheath her belt and uses it to score a long gash down her inner left forearm. The blood seeps from the wound to fall on the statue, causing a bluish-black smoke to surround her and the altar.

When it clears, the wound on her arm is healed to a blue-black scar and the statue seems, happier, if such a thing can be said for a stone carving.

All debts are now paid.

On that cryptic remark, Tocasia vanishes, but the altar remains.
 

My love murdered, his body stolen... yes, I doubted. But something of Kerrick survives... or so I have been told.

she looks around that cathedral, taking in the sight of so many shrines, the power instilled in each by the worshipers

While some part of Kerrick remains there is hope, I believe he can be restored to life. It will not be easy, drawing his spirit from the realm it now wanders back into the physical world... I do not know that I can do it but I shall try. I owe him that and so very much more.
I will be reunited with my love. Somehow.
 

i knew kerrcik, i never talked to him personally much, but i have a lot of respect for him. the stealing of his body, was the biggest slap in the face we could get over his death. i will do anything within my powers as a dual god to resurect Kerrick, and bring the shadow to justice for the desecration of kerrick's grave, and memory.

i will not take any part in the punishment of shadow266. i would like to say though, that the closing of his bar is not punishment for him. it is punishment for the rest of us.

all i can say now is that i am with you nethya and everyone else who wishes to bring justice to the menace: the shadow.

i offer up my powers to the quest to bring back kerrick.

*a flicker of red light can be seen in a dark corner. nethya can feel warmth flood her body. she gets up and leaves, inbued by a portion of shadow931's power.*

i only hope that others will give up some of their power as well.
 

I still don't see why me. Well that's no reason.

she moves to the center of the cathedral and stops suddenly

Here? Fine. Look, I don't ask much but can you explain again...

she stands in silence for a moment before setting down the items she carries. A glass, an Unglued card, a double-wick candle, a rose, a Crusade and Stream of Life

I hope you know what you're doing. And this had better not call for any of my blood.
Well it might.
What's wrong with my blood?!?!?

Chenndra leaves, still muttering to herself
 

These tokens of my love for Kerrick, the glass I saved from our date in Shadows bar, our cards from thewildeman's reading of our future, a candle lit for our worship and a rose for our love.... These are the things which kept me sane during my captivity, the things that linked me to my love.

*Nethya offers a quick prayer to every god represented in the cathedral*

Thank you....
 

Dearest Love,

Let our bonds of love and devotion prove strong and determined, during the coming absence between us. Although I may not speak with you for a while, my heart and mind are content, knowing how much we love and care for each other.

*places two roses and lites and candle with two wicks*

May this symbols of our love guide our thoughts towards each other, while our bodies are apart

*leaves*
 

...a frown creases her forehead as she tries to understand this shift in his character. Whatever the Orb had done to him, it had done a good job...
 

It has been too long since I've done that. The time has com..... Ceres stops as he sees Tocasia watching him.

Tocasia...
 

I would like to offer my gratitude to all the beings and entities that helped me survive this horrible week, if any helped me, that is.

*goes to Nethya's shrine*

*sits and calmly meditates on the wonder that is lady Nethya and his love for her*
 

*places three Balms of Restoration in a triangle and sits in the center*

May these balms and my kind thoughts speed your recovery Nethya, Tredain, and thewildeman. I hope you feel better soon, my friends.

*Offers a short pray at Nethya's shrine and leaves*
 

"Finally, You have chosen..."

A Dark, but womanly voice terrors the pathways of the Cathedral.

Dark clouds start to gather above the Doomned Tower, that highly rises above the Northern parts.
Squeeking and quirming, the Sengir Blanket drops down in a frenzied flight.

"Yes!! I can feel it!!"

Beside the Blood Altar, a temporal wave rifts open. Out steps Lillith, Dark Queen of Cainites. The Goddess of the Blood.

Several Shadows, lurking in the Hall, immediately become visable and drop to the floor.
On the altar, the Green Blood forms a ditinquished look on the main tablet.

Lillith strikes Her finger across the surface of the altar. The slimish blood drips acroos Her wrist, as She brings Her hand to Her mouth...

"Ah.......
Are you here to tell me that you have chosen, my Childe??"

Lillith gazes down upon Ceres, that is still on his knees. The BloodRed fury of the Damned is a sight that delivers rest inside his mind...

--------------------
"Sweet Child in Time,
you have seen the Light.
The Lion strong between,
the Good of us and the Bad of us..."

"See the blind man?
He is shooting at the World.
The bullets are flying...
Their killing everyone..."

-Deep Purple-
 

Ahh.

. o O (Now I remember one reason I turned from these powers. So messy...)

She remains in the shadows, watching, waiting, unsure if she likes this turn of events...
 

Only if I must make a choice at this moment.
 

I still don't understand about this insistance on choices. Or whether to be one or the other, as if Light and Dark, the Life or Death are so mutually exculsive. They aren't. There are infinite variations in between. You should choose your own, settle for the blend that best suits you at that particular moment.

Tocasia holds her arms open wide and shrugs her acceptance, but there is something immensly powerful behind the simple gesture.

Any way, it should be up to you Ceres. Think not what Lillith thinks - she should have enough followers to keep her happy. And worry not about my thoughts. I will be happy no matter what your decision.
 

Thank you, Tocasia. I have yet to make my choice, and I shall not decide until I must. But I am a member of the Grey Council, and I agree with Tocasia.
 

The Countdown to The Return has started. Soon, I shall once again walk this land...

The whisper fades to nothing...
 

*places a copy of Wayward Angel at Nethya's Shrine*

*places a copy of Healing Salve at Lillith's Shrine*
 

*goes to his shrine*

*meditates and ponders on the events he has just seen, the range of emotions he has faced, anger, hate, sorrow, sympathy, and hopefully a resolution to improve*

Take care, my friend, I shall be hear if you need to speak with me, always.

*places a copy of Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary in the shrine, blessing it*

*leaves*
 

*goes to his shrine, sits, and begins to meditate on how he'll accomplish all the school assignments he has yet to complete*

*leaves*
 

Pulling her cloak back around her, she slips out of the Cathedral, closing the massive door quietly behind her, so as not to disturb the sleeping spirits.
 

*lights a candle in the name of harmony*

To who or whatever may be listening, let me learn, help me to understand and please, teach me patience. Show me my failings and give me the strength to surpass them. If the path must be long, let me fill it with love and let hope keep the hurt from cutting too deep. Give me peace in the face of my problems and the power to return the love I have been so honoured to recieve.

*lights a candle for brown packages*

Thank you.

*he looks into her eyes, and holds her close, tears welling in his eyes.*

Oh, Nethya, I love you and am so sorry for what happened*

*he continues to embrace her, rocking her in his arms, softly crying tears of sorrow, tears of hope, and tears of joy.
 

*kneels*

My love, may your words, actions, and feelings convince those who would doubt the sincerity and strength of our love. I care for you deeply and want to meet quite badly, I wantthat time comes soon.

I hope one of us will need this soon, my love.

Thank you. For an idea concieved in something of a drunken haze, it was quite a good one.

*goes to the shrine of Mel*

Please restore to me what has taken, I feel empty without it...

*places a copy of Redeem at the shrines*
 

Roads go ever ever on,
Over rock and under tree,
By caves where the sun has never shone,
By streams that never find the sea;
Over snow by winter sown,
And through the merry flowers of June,
Over grass and over stone,
And under mountains in the moon.

Roads go ever ever on,
Under cloud and under star,
Yet feet that wandering have gone
Turn at last to home afar.
Eyes that fire and sword have seen
And horror in the halls of stone
Look at last on meadows green
And trees and hills they long have known.

By J.R.R. Tolkien

Dedicated to my best friend and my guiding light through the tough times of my life, both physical and spiritual.
 

*goes to Mel's shrine*

I have come again today to ask that my powers be returned to me, please!

*kneels and bows to the shrine, hoping his prays are being received*
 

*goes to Mel's shrine*

Thank you for restoring me to my place of power, I am truly grateful.

Then turns and lights a candle to John Cusack.
 

For my poor sick love.

*lights a candle at the shine of unknown gods*

To whatever power it is that brings serendipitous occurances into our lives.

*lights a candle for all her freinds (and relative) who are facing the evil of exams*
 

Feeling ashamed about her self obsessed outlook on life, quickly lights more candles for everyone else she knows who is taking exams. Including Nethya's relative

Lights several candles in an attempt to combat the stress of booking traintickets online.
 

Prays for delieverance from the nasty evil exam she has just had. Perhaps some inspiration for a timemachine would come in handy so I can go back and do it properly this time? Please?
 

Lights candles for several people.
 

*Lights a candle for all those who have never been in love*

*Lights a candle those who feel alone - please take heart in knowing that you are not*

Nothing is the matter Kerrick, at least not now.

I was a little... miffed... at the time I said that.

I feel better now.

My love, I feel bad after our recent talk. Regardless of what your feelings may be, I do love you and will continue to worship you, even if you don't think you deserve it...I think you do.
