Lord Belmont’s life ended in Clovis, in the impenetrable darkness beneath the ground where forbidden rites were once held. Lady Gwendolyn was his love, body and soul, and the Demon in Blue Light killed her.
Every year, on the anniversary of Gwen’s death, he returned to Clovis to stand in the cold desolation, hearing the wind moan through the lonely passes, feeling her loss all over again.
On this anniversary, he wasn’t alone in Clovis. He heard the noises rustling in the brush. He smelled the raw river of Shadow tech. Then he saw it:
The claws …
The flicking tail …
The maniacal, glittering eyes fixed on him …
“I’ve been waiting for you,” it said in a grating voice as it attacked.
* * * * *
Far away, across the cosmos in a city of wondrous crystal towers, two people watch in horror as the desperate scene at Clovis unfolds. They had worked so hard, sacrificed so much, even argued for it before the gods. They convinced the gods they were right, that they knew best, and everything would go well.
But, things weren’t going well at Clovis.
If this situation went poorly, then ages worth of work would be lost, and, just possibly, the universe might come to an end.

Character Interview:
Answering as Kat, the 1st
Countess of the House of Belmont-South Tyrol
1.
What
are you most afraid of? Well, I
really don’t like being shut into confined spaces. It’s not something I like
talking about much. I just don’t like small spaces.
2.
If
you had one wish, what would it be? (Kat tears up) My Sisters … Bird, Walker, even Wheel. I’d give
anything to have them back. Really miss them. I’m sorry, I need to step away
for a moment …
3.
What
do you like best about yourself? I like my hair. Yeah. I like the color and I like my temples freshly
shaved. I like how my hair whips around when it’s windy. I could sit in the
boudoir for hours letting them comb my hair. I used to not like my hair color,
but, as few other people seem to have it, I guess it makes me stand out a
little.
4.
What
do you like least about yourself? I’m too short. When I want to kiss my G, I’ve got to stand on
something, or he’s got to stoop. I loved how tall Walker was, that’s how I’d
like to be: longer legs, way tall, my head in the clouds.
5.
What
do you think other people think of you? I have no idea. G likes me,
his sister Lyra likes me, and the other 28 sisters are coming around. I guess
that’s fine with me for now. The people I love, love me back, and that’s great.
The people in Tyrol seem cool, I don’t have issues with anybody. I know I’m
probably not what they were expecting as far as a countess and all, but, what
you see is what you get. I’m happy, and that’s all that matters.
