The sound of a gusty wind could be heard passing through the streets of Vesper and silence could be heard all around. Most people in Vesper had turned in for tonight expect for the harbor master and a few of his friends. They sat in there chairs on the docks drinking away and laughing as loud as the wind was blowing. If they werent so drunk they may have noticed in a distant a dark shadow in the distance out in the water that could only be seen for the red light coming rrom it. They also could have realized it may be a ship but then again as drunk as they were they would believe they were seeing things.


The ship slowly was approaching the docks of Vesper. There was no movement on the ship whatsoever except for the latterns buring that is. The vessel that approached was one of the largest in the land yet if most looked closely they could tell it wasnt from the land for it was made of the strangest dark wood that anyone could imagine. As the ship continued to make its way towards the dock of the city a man finally came to the deck from the cabins below. The man was dressed in dark robes and had long red hair with also a long red beard. His face was masked by his cloak and his hat that he wore though. The man held a strange light in his hand though. He slowly juggled the ligh back and forth between his hands as the ship came to a slow stop at the docks. The anchor of the ship droped into the water making a loud splash. The harbor master and his friends finally realized that someone had docked. They stood up and approached the boat slowly. They stared dumbfounded at the wood the boat was made of. While continuing to look at the boats craftsmanship they did not notice the man that had came off the boat and now stood behind them..


The man stop tossing the ball of light in his hand and started to chant. As he continued to chant the friends of the harbor master turned around just as the man threw the ball of light at them.. They screamed in horror as the ball turned into to giant balls of flame and ingulfed them. Within mintutes the harbor masters friends had been turned to ashs. The harbor master turned and being scared out of his wits began to run but the man in the black robe grabed him by this collar. " The man lifted the light weighted harbor master up on the air and drew him closer and began to speak.

"Tell the Guardians of Vesper and those who protect this City that Chaos has come the man in black said and began to smile as he let the little man go."


The harbor master went off down the street and began screaming his lungs off. Many lights came on to see what was going on but when they saw the harbor master they all shruged and went back to sleep thinking the man had drunk to much ale again and was being chased by his friends for the money he owned them in there weekly night game of bones. Meanwhile on the docks the man in the black robes turn his attention to his boat. He lowered his head and began to chant a series of ancient words..when the man looked back up his boat was gone. He knew it was to soon to let those know he was here. He then leaned down and began to sweep the ashes of the harbor masters friends into two viles he had pulled from a pouch tied around his waste.. He then put the viles back into his pouch.

"Well now that takes care of that..after all dont need to leave any clues of us being here. Let them think the harbor master is insane or drunk the man said to himself as he turned and began to walk down the street." Afterall it is a bit early for these wrecthed people to know the Disciples of Chaos have arrived the man though to himself as he continued down the road. Once he got halfway down the street the man began to chant a few words again and then he disappeared without a trace of him being there.
