Crimson Seeps Into The Cobbles

[The Illuminus Obscura 15]

The stench of sulfur rots your nose, coupled with the terrible sight of crimson on grey. It seeps into the cobblestones, causing a clear contrast in the dark.Death was common, in this world. It happened daily, of any situation or naught. Though not of normal happenstance, a body was strung along the roads. In garb most akin to that of a preacher, with gold and silver adorning him, though a question was of who would harm a preacher? With the majority of world in religious frenzy, it was a curious question. His face was mangled to avoid recognition, but one could see he was quite simply, a Human.

 

If one were to observe further, an odd symbol was thrown unto his corpse, engraved with a soldering iron. A pentagram, an eclipse, and an open eye. Beyond this, it was standard form for mutilation. All but his tounge was left un-manipulated, with the words "THOU SHALT NOT LIE." Burnt unto it within his mouth, without identification, the man forms a John Doe.

 

The rot festers.

WHEN THE MANY MEET THE LORD OF THE DEAD

WILL THEY HATE HIM?

WILL THEIR HATRED BLOT THEIR SYMPATHY OF A FALLEN DAEMON

WILL THEY COUNT HIM IN THEIR PRAYERS?

People died every day in the dangerous back alleys of Abresi. The City Watch generally paid little heed to the dead: nine times out of ten they were content to stay that way and didn't cause any trouble.

 

It was the people that were still alive that the Watch was worried about.

Amuel Sano shakes his head sadly "Why... Why these murders? Why do they feel the need? Is there not enough evil in this world already?"

Jared walks by, seeing this. "Oh ****." walks away.
