The Master of the Torch watched from afar as he saw various ships and members fly away from where he knew the Torch was located. With a serene smile, he turned and hobbled down the stone steps. While the Coalition was here in strength, it didn't mean they knew everything about this world and even then, they were still discovering more each day. But this? Ah, these ruins were little more then a combat operation training area. Used to simulate urban warfare which made him laugh, despite the fact it was his machinates that ensured it so.
After all, the best hiding place was where no one ever expected it and down into the lower levels of the Ruins did he go. Into catacombs dripping with water and luminous fungus that gave off an eerie, green glow. It was enough to light his way, though considering his true nature, a useless gesture regardless. It did ensure though that nobody could ever trace him to this point though as touching a random stone with a flicker of his personal darkness, a void opened and into it he descended once more.
The room was a part of the ruins, more like a chapel in its size. Statues of dinosaurs in repose and etched on the walls dominated this ancient place, as an altar in the middle awaited him. Xeanhort smiled....Walking over to stroke it once with the tip of his finger, its surface dry and free of plants after all these centuries. Casually, he spoke aloud.
"Are you aware of the nature of darkness? Its a concept every world seems to grasp, with good reason. Light is good, Dark is bad and many never seem to get over this childish assumption. But they are correct, to an extent. Darkness comes in many forms, often used by those with the will to act. They channel their rage, their frustrations at a world gone mad...Wondering why, is this happening? That they deserved something more, something...New."
A smile curled on the lips of the ancient figure as he peered out into the shadows.
"I sense, much darkness in you."
