Just Outside Uther's Tomb
-----------------------------------

Having drained his blood to forge the spell, a dark shadow is cast over the beautiful and dazzling Light that encompassed the final resting place of that holy man. Mocking the Pia Presidium it swirled as a dark cloud that had been filled with the screams of the Elf's victims. Dark magics had wrenched the souls of a Wailing Mother, a Drowning Father, and a Scared and lonely child to cast their anguish as a warning to all members of the Order that there is much to fear of the looming darkness. Much to fear, indeed.

Meanwhile, at the Sanctum of the Modas Il Toralar
--------------------------------------------------------------

Kael'amand smiled, heavily bandaged as he crushed the three crystal gems, forged from his own blood and catalysts for his more darker magics. Soon, soon the High Karcist and the Modasi would aid him in his revenge. Let them know fear...let them know the suffering of loss. The elf had thought sadistically. How loathe was he of this Order, how he had been driven to madness, driven to the Modas to thrive on chaos and power.

Soon....soon my Grand Puzzle will come to Fruition...

As he wrote down his "wisdom" to share with his congregation back in Tarren Mill, Sekhesmet of Stratholme observed Kael'amand's work out the corner of one eye. It interested him to see how a living creature - and a sin'dorei, no less! - could be so similar to himself. Dark magic was no problem, and the weak and feeble-minded considered them both insane. Insanity is a matter of perspective, he thought.

Sekhesmet had heard snippets about this "Pia Presidium", mostly about how Saavedro condemned their overzealous nature. Ironic, then, he mused, that his own overzealous nature is leading him to me. I wonder if I should provide him with a gift when he decides to drop in on me back in Tarren Mill? He gazed at the blood elf directly, curious to see him wrapped in blood-soaked bandages and practically giggling like an idiot. Such displays made the High Priest wary...nonetheless, Kael'amand had asked his assistance in a Modasi plan against the Presidium, and Sekhesmet had agreed.

Perhaps it would be a first move against Hearthglen? That would be most satisfying - and prove that he (and the Forsaken as a whole, for that matter) were not bluffing...Lordaeron belonged to them.
