Lighting flashes over the sky in the old walk way out side of Neraka though a path long forgotten in time where scatter parts of old rubble older then the city its self. A lone shadow follow's the path only now and again when lighting flashes can the shadow be seen. The wind howls though the tree's like the scream's of the dead. The shadow keeps its course not even stoping when sound or movement flitters along the path. Slowly the lighting stops and the night stands pitched back. Slowly the the shadow moves back and a masked face stares out into the night at the old ruble. Slowly the sound of a whisper voice begins to chant words of prayer and slowly pieces of the ruble begin to glow a faint glow. The form stands still as if hearing words no other can hear. Slowly it nods and kneels before a group of ruble that still glows. a prayer begins to fill the air in a soft sexless voice. Slowly the ruble lose's its glow and a simple medallion lays on part of the ruble. A blacked glove hand reaches down and pick's up the medallion and places it over its head. slowly the shadow is pulled over the masked face and begins it path away from the rumble.
