@ternarium @gunb1rd [When it opens she rushes the door, trying to sprint past you with scrabbling fingers to push you aside and nearly falling in her panic]

[DM @yourturntorole]

@gunb1rd [It's late and the feeling of sickness in the pit of your stomach just won't go away]

[DM @yourturntorole]

@ternarium @gunb1rd [She stands slowly, pushing herself up the glass wall with one hand. A stream flows along the rock floor from one side of the cell to the other, trickling through another few cells and then into the dark.]

[DM @yourturntorole]

@ternarium @gunb1rd [Inside the cell, Prairie is huddled against a far wall. The others in their cages watch you with suspicion or outright hostility, but she remains distant. Listening to the muffled voice outside, analyzing the meaning of what little she can make out.]

[DM @yourturntorole]

@gunb1rd [You move down the hallways, mercifully dark at this late hour. You know that at times Ghul's work consumes him and that he could be IN his lab, even now. But he's often called away on business, or wears disguises and prowls the city.]

[DM @yourturntorole]

@gunb1rd [They stiffen at your approach, but you’re known so they nod and let pass]

[DM @yourturntorole]

@gunb1rd [It's easy to move in the darkness in this city, when darkness so often IS the city. Arriving at the League's Gotham headquarters is simple, getting in a little less so. You know there are guards and where they are, but you'll have to decide how much you want your presence known]

@drjcrane_ @letthem_eatlead [And with that and a sucking, popping rush, she vanishes into a cloud of gently floating sparks]

[DM @yourturntorole]

@drjcrane_ [A searing pain in the middle of your evening informs you that the Lady of Darkness wants you- and is not willing to wait for you to find time for her. Come now, while her inspiration is peaked, or feel her wrath.]

[DM @yourturntorole]

@letthem_eatlead @drjcrane_ <{(((she’ll have her back soon enough (and she cares about that more than she’s ever cared about you))))}> [The smoke solidifies to show red, burning eyes, boring into your soul] <Go… help (the doctor (that miserable creature) and prepare…to do as (you have been asked (told)))>

[DM @yourturntorole]

@letthem_eatlead @drjcrane_ <{Carmilla could have done it} you disappoint me Rachel… playing with your toys (thinking you understand the game)>

[DM @yourturntorole]

@letthem_eatlead @drjcrane_ <and effort {she thinks you have been much distracted}>

[DM @yourturntorole]

@letthem_eatlead @drjcrane_ <{supremely uninterested in your excuses} Work faster…. I want him in place before (the end (this world falls (I return)))>

[DM @yourturntorole]

@letthem_eatlead @drjcrane_ <{and she’s supposed to care?} Did you turn the boy? (As you were instructed… (the rest is meaningless))>

[DM @yourturntorole]

@drjcrane_ @letthem_eatlead [With the air of someone who has absolutely no intention of hurrying] <{patient, insufferably patient} you need to begin your preparations (to leave (the city is not of importance to her))>

[DM @yourturntorole]

@drjcrane_ <wait (outside…(sending my daughter with you… {after she talks to her (a flicker of anger)}))> [In the dark corners of the cave, @letthem_eatlead has also been summoned]

[DM @yourturntorole]

@drjcrane_ <{((it becomes very clear to you that the possibility of resistance only excites her))} when the time is right… everything will fall into place>

[DM @yourturntorole]

@drjcrane_ <{your tone isn’t lost on her (and she’ll get hers when she has a chance) but,}[flashes of the gate crackling closed at Eleven’s command] she has… unusual power>

[DM @yourturntorole]

@drjcrane_ <Preparing the way… (for [flashes of Eleven but younger, facing the mind flayer and bleeding from the nose])>
