A Galaxy of Stars
« Thread Started on Jul 7, 2009, 11:17am »

It was a large room. How large, no one knew for certain. Some said the ceiling reached all the way to the heavens, where the light of stars could barely penetrate. Today, it looked like the whole galaxy had been stolen, fitted into the room, where stars brushed against the walls, the floor, the darkness curling in at all angles.

There was no elaborate throne or crowd of courtiers. Simply a tall black chair carved of crystal and draped with dreamsilk. The dark figure on the chair had one hand out, a hand pale as starshimmer, yet flickering with black stars.

One of the pinpoints of light drifted within reach, and the ruler of Thyos reached out, cupping it in her hand. All the power of the realms, within her grasp. Those deities who ruled from their lofty thrones, they too were within her gaze.

She waited for the one she had summoned, one of her most trusted leaders. And of course, that meant that she could not trust Kaolrin. Thyos was not built on trust.

"You summoned me, Mistress?" The sultry voice arrived before the figure, a series of quietly clicking heels announcing her approach. Kaolrin stepped from the soft darkness of some indistinguishable corridor into the star-speckled chamber, a woman all business in spite of her playful tone.

The alchemist was tall and fiercely beautiful, her red-painted lips curled in the slightest of teasing smiles on a face of a pure, but unhealthy paper-white. Her eyes were set in a perpetual glare, slanted and narrow with irises as red as her high-knotted, thigh-length hair. Kaolrin was curvaceous, with an elegant body all wrapped in a short, barely knee-length dress of bright crimson. A long black vest flowed around the ankles of long, shapely legs and high-heeled boots. A pair of crisscrossed black belts hung at her hips, a pendant with a black star settling just below her bosom. This was the Crimson Alchemist, the Red Lady of the Black Star - Kaolrin Knight.

She made a gracious bow before her dark mistress, the long sleeves of her dress sweeping in dramatic effect. "I am here at your command."

"Ah, Kaolrin." A glowing galaxy drifted near to the throne, draping light across the form of a woman sitting in its crystalblack embrace. She stood and walked forward, and as she did, the darkness faded, light from different colored magelights filling the vast room.

Mistress Aonia looked as though she had stepped from that galaxy of stars into the mortal plane. Her form glimmered in silver light from polished armor closely bound to her. Tall boots, a knee-length tunic of plated silver, with matching vambraces on her bare arms. Pauldrons of bright crystal adorned her shoulders, and framing her pale, cold face was an elaborate crown of twisted silver.

"Do you like my little collection of lights?" The galaxy was still faintly to be seen, drifting around them. "Each little...pathetic light I extinguished with my own hands, and threw them into this mirage."

A pale golden light glimmered into her bare hand. "The midnight sky darkens as each star falls, but..." Her narrow, cold eyes focused on her lieutenant. "it is still out there! And my searchers are failing me. Come before me!"

Aonia snapped her fingers, and three figures, their bodies obscured by shifting plates of darkness molded to their robed figures, appeared before her. "You have returned empty handed again!" her voice growled and snapped, lashing them where they stood. "Where is it?!"

"Mistress..." One quaked, kneeling before her. "We've looked everywhere! Please!"

"Useless! I have no more use for you..."

They screamed and shrank onto the floor as her gaze fell on them, and in moments there was nothing but several pieces of cold metal on the floor.

"Kaolrin... I hope you have something better to report?"
