[QUOTE="gideonpepys, post: 7469844, member: 79141"] [b]Session 63, Part One - Before the Riot[/b] [LIST] [*]King Baldrey ordained sleep. Rest was needed if they were to be able to face the challenges ahead. While the others slumbered, Uru sat like a spider at the centre of a web, sensing the city around him. He could feel negative energy slowly spiralling and draining inward to Cauldron Hill, like dishwater down a plughole.
