Now... now I have you, Young OneFOOLISH ELDER... YOU HAVE FAILED YOUR MISSIONI beg to differ, childThe screams were exquisite... and they kept going on and on... endless echos in that place of decay and forgotten life... and then it finally stopped... finally the cries stopped.  It had sent that Younger back without its mission.. it would be destroyed, for its failure and death in this plane.  Little to worry of... From the shadows came its newest servant... this one would make it farther... but first, the matter of that gate...It slid across the floor soundless, and it drew back its smoke-like fist, bringing it down into the mirror surface of the gate.  It shattered, sending the gate's essence out, as the temple started to shake and pitch back and forth... its job was done... and they would find another place to go... but never to return this way again.</blockquote>
