Twilight Comes Upon Nosgoth

They stepped out of the portal and gazed at the corrupted land. They were years upon years in the future. The brethren had been raised and had their respective clans. It was only a few years before the fall of Raziel. Just years before the failure of an empire to endure Raziel's absence. Decay would soon follow, with the lieutenants hideous de-evolution. The lieutenants were not the only ones who would decay, their offspring would change as well.

All was not as ominously peaceful as it seemed. The silence was shattered by the cries of sentinels. Kain and Umah were quickly surrounded by a horde of Dumahim. The Dumahim parted to let their leader through. They grinned with malevolent glee while their commander's eyes widened. The leader glared at his warriors.

"You idiots, this is our lord Kain" he screamed

"So what, he's trespassin'" yelled a stupid Dumahim

"He's the emperor you fool. He can go wherever he damn well pleases" shouted the commander "Sorry about the new recruits my lord. They still don't seem to know their place."

"It would be wise to teach them that fledglings should be subservient." Kain growled

Kain grabbed Umah and left the circle of warriors. They walked in silence for the rest of the night. At dawns first light they beheld a cave. Umah observed some branches and twigs as she entered and quickly started a fire. Kain stretched out at the northern end of the cave by the fire. He gazed at the flames thoughtfully. Umah lay next to him and kissed him. He stroked her face as he deepened the kiss. He removed her tabard and spread it over them while pulling her close.
