There was screaming. Bodies running. Distant sounds of unearthly wailing as shadows blurred past. Some had ghastly faces, some had none. Their limbs -- one, two, five, ten -- flailed and writhed as they reached out to their victims. Blood drenched the walls, the streets, bits of flesh strewn about.
It was Somarium, ravaged, destroyed, bloody. Thorn like claws writhed all over the desert, piercing anything that strayed too close. The world was broken, skewed, slanted, shattered. It was a nightmare. A nightmare she had tried to prevent.
And failed.
Above in the sky the Overlord hovered above the city's burning buildings, a look of horror on her pale face. Her clothes were torn, her flesh clawed and bloody. As the battle between others of her kind and the beasts continued around her, both below and in the sky, she could only stare, her hands now over her mouth.
She watched as one of her kind was ripped in half, his screams still ringing in her ears as his torso was ravaged and the other fell.
You were supposed to save us! You were created for that only purpose!
Voices echoed through her mind as she clutched her arms, writhing in pain.
No...NO! she screamed.
And then everything shattered like glass, dark shadowy chains enveloping the ghostly woman before dragging her deep into the darkness.
[ooc: :3...Nightmare event is soon upon us and this is part of it. Everyone is able to see this and can discuss wtf is going on in this post if they so desire. The lady ghost herself will not answer however, and all lines are open (as in, it's possible for someone to jump into a "call", which is similar to thread hopping). So...muse away :O]
