The four saw a figure in the shadows, hiding inside the mouth of the Endless Caverns, to meet with Cioran, Luna's long lost older brother, yet he was completely different from how Luna had remembered him, especially now he had a black scar over his right eye, a wound of corruption. "B-Brother?" Luna shakily asked. Cioran gave her a wicked smirk, his lifeless lavender eyes sparkling with insanity as he tilted his head sadistically. "Lunarsis.." He said before softly laughing ominously. "Back off.." Severin growled, getting in front of her. Alysia and Zumirae surrounded each side of Luna, each with their own weapons ready, Alysia with her witch staff and Zumirae with her bow and arrow. "Oh, so you've made friends in this neglectful world then, sister?" Cioran asked. "Yes, I have." She answered, stepping forward, getting caught in a trap. "Ah!" Luna yelled. "Luna!" Alysia called out. "Cioran.. What are you doing?!" Luna demanded. "Over the past ten years, I've reflected how the world has treated me, it's all the same, I'm an outcast in society, I'm frowned upon, I'm seen as a cold-blooded monster Lunarsis.. But then, the spirit of a goddess reached out to me, Shar, the deity of shadows, she wants to be free, and if I summon her, I'll awaken my full dark magic and be able to take vengeance on the world that tossed me around like a rag-doll and stomped on me.." Cioran explained, "Now, here's where YOU come in sister, in order to summon Shar, I need the icon of a god, and a decent number of dark fae blood.." He revealed a blade in his palm as he continued, "You're only part dark fae, so I'd need quite a bit of blood, sorry Lu.." "Stop!" Luna interrupted. Her brother froze. "I get it, it's easier to lash out on what's around you when you are hurting, but this isn't the way, if you do this, you would prove them right, please Cioran, join me and my friends so we can prove them wrong, trust me, it's better to let someone in than to keep them out." Luna persuaded. Cioran's eyes widened, maybe he even shed a tear as he said, "Oh wow.. Lunarsis you, you've really grown up, you really think your little speech.." He paused since he was standing right in front of her, then sliced her cheek with the dagger before continuing, "..Will make me change my mind? You've become so naive and soft, Gods, I thought you were COOL." He sampled the blood in a cup as it dripped from Luna's cheek. Severin smelled her blood from the distance and went into a frenzy. "Ah!" The rogue exclaimed as his claws grew out and his eyes of scarlet began to glow. He snarled at Cioran. Luna looked back and saw Severin began running at her brother like an animal possessed. He took Cioran by the neck, grabbing him in a choke hold and absorbed his blood. "Severin, enough!" Luna cried out as Alysia cut her from the trap. Severin heard Luna say his name, which snapped him out of it. Cioran was left unconscious on the ground. He stared at his hands, shuddering fearfully. "Quickly Severin, we gotta go!" Luna exclaimed, tugging his arm as they ran behind Zumirae and Alysia. They arrived at a cliff with a river below, but there was no turning back. "We have to jump.." Luna declared. "Are you insane?!" Zumirae demanded. But Luna had already jumped into the water. "Oh my Gods, Luna!" Alysia cried out, before jumping as well. "No, Zumirae, kid, do-.." Severin ordered. Yet Zumirae jumped too. Severin groaned, muttering, "Frick, oh frick, frick frick!" before jumping in at last. Luckily, all four were able to make it to shore and began running even more, now on their way to Waterdeep.. AND THAT IS WHERE WE'LL LEAVE OFF..
