An old woman, hair grey and unkempt with a tattered up brown jacket, walks down the half light street, the chilling air prodding her weak knees. She looks up grimly through the high iron gate of an abandoned mansion. The wrinkles around her face go into a deep frown, her pale eyes; despite her appearance, remarkably focused. She breaths in with difficulty and whispers “There is a hush over the city tonight, one that wasn’t here before. A pressing feeling in the air, ready to tear apart at any moment…something is coming or is already here. Lurking just beyond...”
There is a heavy feeling in the air, something not right in the city of Atkins. Every day more and more people are feeling it, and being pressured into moving away. The city itself seems to be affected by it, the plant life not looking as vibrant and green as it had previously in years before. Slowly everyone watches as the city becomes less and less populated…but though the sky gets darker with each day and the air thinner, the people of Atkins continue to live. Few people have tried to explain and find the source of the darkening of the city, and fewer have started to notice, that the darkness has been spreading outside of the city. Who would believe the cries of a single old woman wandering the city crying warnings of ancient evils engulfing the city?
“Stop ignoring the signs!” She cries. “Our city is being draining of all life and you walk ‘round as if nothing is happening! The demon’s minions are all around us! You know them, you do!!!” She stumbles and recedes into a shadow in an ally way. “The demon, The Wanderer, has come…and his power is spreading.”
What will you do?
Will you walk by the old woman, thinking she mad? Or will you find her and listen?
One thing's for sure, the darkness is spreading..
