[QUOTE="Airwolf, post: 588842, member: 2905"] [B]Fiction[/B] The rain ceases just after sunset. The three settle in for a cheerless night. In a few hours the clouds have broken. The cold chill of the night falls upon the weary travelers. In the hours before the dawn, the fog begins to roll in. Not the thin wispy stuff of ghost stories but the heavy banks of mist so thick that a hand in front of a face is but a dim outline. Restless they awake. One says, “I hate this stuff.” Another, “It makes me feel cold and damp all over.” “Soon.” A low voice rumbles from the third, a figure wrapped tight in its cloak against the chill of the fog. It’s knees pulled to its chest and the hood of its cloak pulled low over its face. “The sun will awake from her slumber and this mist of despair and gloom will pass. The others settle back in and try to find a way to keep the soggy air from reaching them. As promised a glow in the distance, a faint and pale light turns into a luminescence that could mean only one thing. The sun peaks over the distant mountains. The view is almost otherworldly. The sun, normally a fiery yellow at first light, turning to a blazing white ball is subdued and red. The fog, in bands does it lay, giving the sun the appearance of cloudbanks of its own. The impression grows that the three are not on a planet but on a moon orbiting a colossal gas giant of a planet. The fog remains. The third, “What foul magic brings omens such as these?” Slowly the peril draws ever closer. It thinks “Ah, the fog is a blessing from the our demongod.
