~doubt~

leap of faith
waking from a dream
nothing left to do but die

~fear~

free fall into a black hole
calm before the storm
the beast waits

~hope~

a choice
sinner or saint
the apple or the seed
embrace illusions tapestry
free will

deep in the jaws of hell will you find heaven
and to your surprise you come to realize
that they are both one in the same…

(Inscription found on Hell Tablet G, attributed to be the words of Lilith-Queen of the Hell Realms)





The Sorceress, Tessa Del Bellasuna, known by the masses as The ‘Blue Dolphin’ felt the weight of the world thrust upon her shoulders without the abbess’s wisdom and counsel to administer to her needs. Two moon cycles had past since Alucia Delecourt, The High Priestess and Abbess of the Dolphenian Order, disappeared into the Hell Gate Tapestry. Tessa was fully aware that the Tick Tick Tock of Time was a fluid thing between tapestry to tapestry and what was two monthly cycles to her could be but a minute or even a second to the Abbess. Knowing this did not alleviate the sense of foreboding that invaded her being the second Alucia stepped into that damnable tapestry contaminated by hells dust. The thought of her being lost forever in Hells Embrace constantly gnawed and chewed away at her mind. She should have never allowed it but how could one say no to the shadow ghost of the One that is She. Tessa’s meditative reverie was cut short as the Vaults alarms came to life. A tickle of hope; that the High Priestess had returned from the Tapestry Quest, tingled through her fingers. Alucia must have succeeded in her quest and found the Greenfire Tapestry. Now ultimate power and the destiny of all the Tapestry Holds would be controlled by the Dolphonic Order. She headed toward the Vault Room like a giddy school girl anticipating her lovers embrace. All of her giddiness and dreams of glory quickly evaporated as she entered the room. She found the Vault Doors askew and the chamber hall dark and unguarded. The musky scent of male sweat invaded her nostrils. In the corner of the room perched in a lotus position was her arch nemesis, former lover from a bygone time, as well as brother and kin, The Red Cockroach, also known as Jeddiah Sendalay of the Morningstorm Clan.
