déodat,

Déodat was a proud lord, not a cowering fool; yet, this darkness was beginning to fill him with sheer terror. Monsters had leapt from the welcoming forest of Helovia. How long would it take for them to come north? What if they already had? Worry churned in his stomach and there was nothing he could do to tame it. Over and over images of the Basin’s destruction played out through his mind. It was only a matter of time before the undead turned their attention to the north and start feeding on the crowned. Standing around and waiting for them to come left him feeling useless, and his lack of sleep was driving him deeper and deeper into the hands of delusions and hysteria.

Several days had passed since he had left the north to scout out a place that they could potentially take shelter in at least, and at best he hoped to find the nest of the undead. Sleep had been a luxury the Blood Prince hadn’t allowed himself to take in over twenty four hours. Exhaustion was written all over his body and he knew if something were to attack he wouldn’t stand a chance. The sun was beginning to set and Déodat could see the streaks of red beginning to cross the sky. Night was oncoming and he had absolutely no desire to face the monsters in the dark when he was so close to collapsing. Out of the corner of his eye he thought he could see a shadow shift, his head whipped around and he blindly swung his horn. There was nothing, or maybe that was what the monster wanted him to think. Panic seized hold of him and he began to gallop to get away from his imaginary zombie.

After several moments, he stopped and looked about. It appeared as though he had out run the monster. Déodat gave out a sigh of relief. As he started to walk he stumbled and a loud shout escaped from his mouth as he felt himself slide several inches. His eyes widened and he looked at the darkness in front of him. Was that a cave? Recklessly he wandered down into the darkness. For a moment he wondered if he had found the nest of the monsters, but the scents around him didn’t reek of death, no, what he smelled was very much alive. “Who would live in a hole like this?” He mused to himself. “Desperation can lead many to do foolish things.”

As he headed deeper into the caverns, the Blood Prince wondered who and how many individuals had wandered into this place, and whether they still lingered. “Hello?” He called, his voice oozing weariness. Finally he stepped into a room that could fit almost every individual in Helovia. The Blood Prince studied every rock and crevice. Whatever he had found, this place was truly spectacular.

"Speech speech speech"

[Open to anyone.]
Is that an angel which flew down from the twilight sky?
Is that a fiend which crawled out from a crevice?.
