[Spawn]

---

Spawn stood on the stairwell leading into his Sanctus office which was empty. There was no a person in sight since he ordered all the workers to head to his residence within the Malas mountains after hearing the Lich Lord's orders to execute members of Skyfire household and take all the land within Sanctus. He just paced around the top of the stairway looking out to the front of his office with his kryss, "The Bringer of Justice", in his hand. If the Lich Lord would come or send any of his henchmen, Spawn would be ready to fight them with every ounce of strength he had in his aging body. Everything seemed quiet to Head Constable of Moonglow until he caught a glimpse of a figure approaching from the distance. Since it was night, it was hard for Spawn to see who or what the figure was. He brought his kryss and his body into a combative stance as he watched the figure get closer towards the stairs.

"Hold! Identify yourself now!" Spawn shouted pointing his kryss at the approching figure. When the figure got to the foot of the stairs, the light from Spawn's home revealed it to be a man wearing a blue uniform of the Moonglow Town Council.

"Apologizes Constable for starling you but I'm with the council sir and I was sent here to give you something sire" The councilmember said reaching into his pocket as if going to grab something. Spawn slowly walked down the stairs towards the man with his kryss still out. He was under the impression that this might have been a trick from the Lich Lord, therefore Spawn would not lower his guard. "A messenger came to Moonglow a few days ago with this sire, he said it was for you" said the councilmember slowly taking out a sealed letter holding it out in front of him towards Spawn.

"I see..." said Spawn taking the letter from the man with his free hand. "What is your name?" Spawn asked glancing up towards the man from the letter.

"My name is Mitchell and I am a private in the Moonglow Council sire" The man said with a respectful bow. Spawn nodded slowly before placing his kryss back into its sheath. The Moonglow Constable then broke the seal of the letter and began to read it over. Spawn let out a long deep sigh shaking his head after reading the letter which was from Malic M'real's wife, Catalana. It seemed that Malic was nowhere to be find and his wife was worried for his safety which any wife would be under similiar circumstances. The Moonglow private watched with some concern as Spawn slowly walked up the stairs with Catalana's letter in hand. "Is everything alright sire? Is there something I can assist you with Constable?" asked the private.

"No thank you private... You should head back to Moonglow for it is not safe here at the moment" Spawn said leaning against the archway on top of the stairs as he continued to look over the letter. The private just bowed respectfully and just went the way he came from realizing that the Head Constable of Moonglow was in some sort of distress. Spawn glanced over his shoulder at the Sanctus streets which were suspiciously empty. A new concern had arisen to Spawn which was the fate of Malic M'real Skyfire, the Governor Regent of Sanctus. Malic was a loyal friend and student of Spawn's during his time within the Order of Sanctus. There were moments where Malic helped Spawn in times of dire need such as when Spawn's body was taken by the demon god Oggaroth. Now it seemed that Malic might need him especially with the Lich Lord's apparent threat to Sanctus. Spawn turned around and began to walk down the stairs since now he had to find Malic and make sure that the Lich Lord had not taken him or worse.

"Worry not Catalana... I shall find your husband and bring him home to you" Spawn said to himself as he walked down the Sanctus streets to begin his search for Malic M'real Skyfire. Spawn's search had to begin now and fast before Malic would fall into the grip of the evil Lich Lord Darrien Church. Time was against the Moonglow Constable and he knew it.
