Night toys with the contours of the land, picketing shadows darkly about the earth. The clouds are sparse, but the few, black strands band away the stars. There is a brief moment of sheer silence, a smooth, polished feeling. The shadow pressed against the ground swings away into the thinning air, as a clangor erupts, a pealing siren in the wind, pursued by harsh static. Without shadow, the land seems one dimensional.
A dark figure steps out from a pocket-like fold in midair. His ribs extend from his abdomen, and his fur peels away to reveal skin and bone. The black feline is hooded in a sickly red, and the only shadow masking his body conceals his emptied face.
The words drain softly from his mouth. "Friends," he greets. "What a pleasure, I'm charmed. I go by Discord." The land is silent again. The nighttime thrum evidently lacks, and the air seems acrid and weighted. "You don't know how pleased I am to inform you of tonight's entertainment." An sharp smell of bile and rancid meat seems to surface from under the earth.
"It is with great honor that I introduce to you my darling children: the plagues."
