A palace arises

You take several drops of blood from you forehead and toss them in the field. You focus. The ground begins to shake. The earth cracks and black toxic gases pour forth. Then a spire pierces the surface from below the ground and begins to rise toward the sky.

It is black and crystalline, with many sharp shards. Several more towers burst forth from the ground. Once they reach several stories the main portion of the palace emerges from the ground. The massive entrance looms before you. Shiny black stalactites hang down, like the teeth of some beautiful horrific beast.

You walk into the darkness of the entrance. You give your toy's leash a tug, drawing blood. She whimpers and follows you.

As you walk in you wave you hand. Flames burst forth from sconces on the walls. The whole room is bathed in an eerie glow. You smile at the obsidian throne before you, your throne.

As you sit in it you smile. You feel it's magic drawing lost souls to you. Soon you will play. To your right Melody silently cries.
