Warnings: ...Ansem Creeper party :|b
Thus far, Ansem had to admit that he was not in the slightest bit impressed by the city at large. True, there were people enough, and a good deal of suitable hearts. But the light lurked here too. It was in the streets, and in the people who seemed to belong to this world. Still, there was no need to dwell on it, and no sooner had he arrived in the city proper he had left the streets and taken to the darkness. What need had he for light in any world? No, better he would stick to the shadows. It would make for a better impression when he let his presence be known.
He hadn't been expecting to find the deepest darkness in the center of the city, but he was hardly about to complain. It was a suitable stronghold. More to the point, it would be his, and he stepped out of the darkness just behind the great barrier of thorns that separated city hall from the outside world with the slightest care for who might see his arrival or what they would think of it. What should he care after all? Either they would prove useful or they would be nothing more than a hitch in his plans, and he couldn't quite keep the smile that thought brought off his face as he strode towards the front doors of City Hall proper.
Let them come, if they would.
