[QUOTE="megamania, post: 851868, member: 9255"] UNDER A DARKSUN SEGMENT 052 “All Hell Breaks Lose” The Leetrah family was not having fun on this, the 5th day of The Kings during Ral’s Contemplation of 190KA. They were preparing the body of the eldest son for his funeral. He had been washed up and made to look as clean and presentable as possible. Each member of the family would walk up to his body and place a personal item into a basket that would be buried with him in the family tomb. The item given was representative of one final promise between the deceased and the living. If the promise were broken, the deceased would use it to curse the family member from the grave. So far, 10 of the 40+ family members had given the same promise. The death of the Dree family. Suddenly the soft sobs and murmurs deaden. There is not even a sound when little Gracey (out of town with the Aunt until now) knocks over a tray with water and fruit. The family elders knowing what was happening tried to reach the doorways but it was too late. Two windows silently break apart (Shatter Spell) and in comes three green glowing beads of energy that then hesitate then sharply explode. No sound comes from within the building but the entire block hears the explosion of the Fireballs erupting within a constricted space. It is two hours later that enough Templars arrive to caste spells to stop the fire. It would have been a mere hour if the Fire Clerics weren’t there trying to maintain it for a ritual. The few survivors all are all burnt and injured. Of the 43 family members and ten slaves within the building, only 6 make it out alive. By the day’s end, it will be only 5. The Templars place them under city arrest then go to get the Dree family. Not surprised, the templars find only a few slaves within the house. The rest are “out”. The new Hi-Templar of War, Arru arrives demands the house arrest of them and a citywide search made for the rest. Suddenly- Arru and three other templars turn as they hear the words- “Freedom”. Arru escapes through the front door. The others scream and die horribly by what spoke the word. Arru trys to gather himself as a familiar figure stands before him. Dhojakt. “Slavery” he clicks back. “No freedom in Nibenay for Infernal creatures like yourselves.” Before him, within the building still, are three winged dark shapes. Each has horns and claws. Sharp teeth that drip thick spittle. Someone has allowed hell to break lose in here. [/QUOTE]
