[QUOTE="Ferrix, post: 1701213, member: 6115"] The rattle of chains sends a whisper of fear through the crowd, from behind one of the wagons the crack of a hard-soled footfall pushes the children farther back. Then silence and the wind carries a voice like cold stones grating together to the crowd, "and those many days in the dark hills had left a graven chill in our souls, so we drank spirits to warm our bodies and reveled with buxom young lasses to warm our hearts." A hush falls over the crowd but eager Deryn nudged his compatriot Fend at the mention of young ladies, the two boys just now growing into that welcoming age, and was met with a grunt and quickly the crowd turned on them shushing their antics. And then the chains started rattling again, the footfalls drew nearer and those gathered darted their eyes nervously about. And from the shadows did a tall figure slip into the firelight, a spiked chain of some dark burnt metal hung about his shoulders and the affair of clothing he wore twisted and turned with the flickering shadows. He began again slowly advancing upon the crowd, "[B]surrounded by[/B] our companions we felt no fear in that small inn that night," taking another step forward, this drawing the crowds attention mercifully before him, "but we should have," another step, "for that night the merciless shadow of the Nightlord fell across the town of Killith," drawing himself up to his full dark height, "and we were there to see it."
