[QUOTE="stonegod, post: 3372954, member: 36973"] [size=3][b]The Telling: [i]Holy Symbol of Ravenkind[/i][/b][/size] Madam Ewa adroitly gathers up the cards, shuffling them once again. She presents them once again to Ashlyn, and once cut, clasps them tight, eyes closes. She concentrates hard a moment, as if struggling with something, then whispers, [COLOR=YellowGreen]"This symbol is a powerful force for good and protection against the forces of darkness." [/COLOR]Gingerly, she places the first card. [center][img]http://www.enworld.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=28000[/img][/center] As before, she pulls forth another card to cover the first. [center][img]http://www.enworld.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=28001[/img][/center] Scales flicker in the lamp light, seeming more purple than blue. The color forces Marot to shiver---it is the color of Khyber, the Dragon Below. Now looking at the cards, Madam Eva's eyes narrow, and she casts a scrutinizing glance at the party.[COLOR=YellowGreen] "Seek it in the place of blasphemy, where humans plumb their darkest nature."[/COLOR] She skewers the card's eye with a long nail, as if trying to prevent it from seeing her. [COLOR=YellowGreen]"This is a card of debasement and debauchery, my pet. The symbol has been brought low, to the hill where the witches gather."[/COLOR] Madam Eva sneers at the card, then closes her eyes to concentrate on the desk. Unbidden from her mouth, more whispers. [COLOR=YellowGreen]"The holiness in this item waits for hands of holiness to touch it once more, but that is not enough to bring its power back to life." [/COLOR]Quick as a flash, another card is drawn, crossing the foul dragon with one of metal and light. [center][img]http://www.enworld.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=28002[/img][/center] The soothsayer opens her eye, but does not seem surprised at the result. [COLOR=YellowGreen]"You must bring the symbol home, to he last reaming shred of sacred ground in the defiled castle."[/COLOR] Each scale of the silver dragon seems to burn with its own argent fire, and Madam Eva seems loathe to touch it.
