Rei let go enough to shoo the wisp with her fingernails, only as she does, the little light bobs happily towards her and she staggers backwards, falling flat on her backside with a pained cry. Wide eyed and staring, her thoughts swirl and swirl, a spiraling vortex of thought and memory..
That same castle, the one Meril had seen, all white marble and gleaming spires stands out starkly in Rei's mind's eye. Only something was different this time. There was no soft light, no gentle glow, only the harsh reds and oranges of fire and death. Bodies lined the floor, the perspective swooping through shattered gates to an interior room, and standing at the center of it all was a grim looking young woman, holding a deadly looking spear. When she speaks there's a hint of command there, the voice of someone ancient, powerful, and terrifying.
"I am the Harbinger of Death. I am the Endbringer, the Herald of Silence, the Guardian of Saturn. And I have come to put a stop to this."
And then, all she does? Is simply drops that spear. The weapon falls to the tile floor, and there's not a single sound as it impacts. Absolute, perfect, silence. And then the world seems to come apart at the seams, the palace and surroundings crumbling away to dust. There are screams then, the sounds of death and dying, a furious bellow from somewhere deep inside that palace. And then it was all gone. Everything. Gone. Ashes to Ashes...and Dust to Dust..
"W-What?!" she chokes back a gasp, her stomach suddenly feeling very, very unsettled. "Who...was that?!"
