Unending: Part Six
by Dana E BrossardThe House of Tic
Also known as the House of Night to many. It is the home of the most influencial clan on the borderlands. The clan house resides in the trade town of Novgorod. The walls are of cold, hard stone, with mounted spikes and ballista one every tower. The grounds speak of honor, as well as hard times and hard folk.
Paladins of Death stand guard at every gate, with the most skilled archers in the land patrolling the walls. Priests of Darkness wander the grounds, watching for those who do not belong. Even the House Wizards patrol the inner house, ever watchful of intruders. The heads of the house are at conference, and none are allowed to interefere.
Yet, a flicker of darkness moves among them, unseen and unbelonging. Dodging all the guard, and evading all magical wards, silently slipping into the clan conference. Listening quietly to them speak of alliances with Drow, and ties with demons, after a moment he steps into sight.
