NWoD: Confluence Zoo
"Darkness comes.
In the middle of it, the future looks blank.
The temptation to quit is huge.
Don't. You are in good company."
-John Piper
A gilded invitation to an auction, items that should not exist, but are being offered. Yet portents say, things exist in the darkness. The answer may lie in the auction… but what are you willing to pay? What are you willing to sacrifice?
In the darkness of the forest, he calls out to you all with words of warning. A tree long dead stirs to life. A tree that should not be… is.
His call goes unanswered as the cracks slowly begin to show. An ending is beginning.
