The black worgen groaned slightly and opened his eyes to see Rhey standing over him.
Character: Marilk Shadowreaver
Location: Light's Hope Chapel, Eastern Plaguelands
The shadows regrew after Kassanzi's attempt to dispell them and lashed out at her, Ashepta, Grakasha, and Dansha, striking them all and knocking them all back. Ahanu alone managed to enter the realm throught the shadows, but the Light that had empowered him quickly faded while inside. The same thing happened to Tyreal's Light.
"You should not be here," Marilk said, looking at the tauren. "But I suppose this makes the battle all the more interesting." The shadows around the feet of the tauren and two elfs warped up around the feet of all three and pulled them to individual ends of the... room - for lack of a better word.
"Tell me," Marilk said, looking between Ahanu and Tyreal, "out of curiosity; what do each of you know about the Aqir?"

"Insects to squish," Ahanu stated simply, bringing up his axe. The Light that had brought him here could have faded - but the far more important one, the Light inside him still shone into the darkness.

Kishkumaen rolled with the blow and jumped back to his feet, slipping his assault rifle from his shoulder. Sighting, he opened fire.

The worgen chuckled. "What are you going to do?" he growled low and menacing. "Deliver me to the Royal Guard? The moment I stand up the worst you'll be able to do it crack my kneecaps, and your human friend wont get much more done." He looked into Rhey's eyes, his own almost fully blood-red. "Do you know what's coming? How soon it's coming? I lost track myself, but I'm sure it's at least less then two weeks away. Soon, very soon, it'll be
our
time of the month. Then, I will gut you like the
pig
you are."
He barked at her, baring his teeth.
Character: Marilk Shadowreaver
Location: Light's Hope Chapel, Eastern Plaguelands
The shadows only dissipated briefly, then reformed and thrust Ashepta out. She was sent flying through the air. The bullet from Kishkumaen's gun hit the wall of shadows and came out the complete other side of the area, hitting whoever it was that was unfortunate enough to be standing there.
"The Aqir were an ancient and powerful race," Marilk explained. "They had little in the ways of magic, but what they did have in such things were dark. Evil. Demonic, almost, but drawning power from a very non-demonic source. They were games, of sorts, played among the highest of the high in Aqir society. The prize of victory was the losers power. The cost of defeat; one's soul.
"When the empires split these magics were all but lost. The Nerubians to the north decided that these "games" were too evil, and did their best to destroy all trace. Some survived, however, through the workings and subtlety of cults within their society. The games were continued to be played in secret untill their civilization was crushed by the Scourge, at which point they were lost again."
He looked up at them. "Lost, but not forgotten." He held up a second stone card. "Answer me this, weaklings; what price can you put on a man's soul?"

"If you even scratch her I will--" Richard started, but Isabel called him off before he could finish.
"Let us find out what Isabel Price knows, shall we?" Isabel laid down on to the operating table, readying herself for what was to come.

"Soul," Ahanu stated, "Is the
greatest
treasure we possess, and all riches of Azeroth shall
not
outweigh it.
Unless it is a soul of a
wicked
one. Tarnished, twisted and cripple
mockery
of the original. Such shades cost less than a dented
copper
."

Wilhelm nodded and closed the enchanted circle that had lit up the moment Isabel was on the table. He inhaled and reached carefully - gently, even - to her mind.

Isabel instantly felt drowsy, and closed her eyes in a peaceful trance. She felt a presence in her mind, it was soft, yet soothing; it seemed determined. Her mind danced around the presence, she sent it happy messages and almost taunted it.
"What might you be?" was the message she sent it.

A friend.
I look for things lost.
Little help?

"You look for things lost?" she asked curiously. She danced around the presence, and skipped away from it. "There are no lost things here silly, only me."

I'm afraid you're mistaken
.
The presence Isabel felt slowly put upon Wilhelm's form - only this Wilhelm was a lot less pale and frail than his real-life counterpart.
Don't you see?
Wilhelm's illusion pointed at a black, sucking void that was cunningly hidden by re-arranged remnants and fractures.

"Oh,
that
," she said with slight annoyance. Her younger self recognized the figure of Wilhelm, but chose not to acknowledge it. "That's been there for as long as I can remember. He said that if I ever look in that hole, it may suck me in whole!"

The black worgen chuckled again. "I'm afraid not," he said. "I am merely a person who is playing the cards dealt to me by fate. They made me a monster, so I play the role of a monster." He grinned. "And it feels
amazing
.
"You have no idea what it is like to be me, the beast inside hungering for a kill - a hunger that only strengthens beyond control during this time. And so I let it kill, and the thrill of the kill always urges me to do it again." He laughed a single "ha." "So what will it be, dwarf? Kill me for vengeance? Or hand me over to the guard for justice?"
Character: Marilk Shadowreaver
Location: Light's Hope Chapel, Eastern Plaguelands
Once more the shadows forced out those that tried to enter, repairing what little damage they had managed to do and lashing out to strike those outside of its perimeter.
"Wrong!" Marilk replied, looking at the tauren. "A soul has no value. It is a mere representation of ones conciousness and the vessel through which one reaches the afterlife. You cannot buy a soul, you cannot use a soul as a weapon. You can, however, steal a soul, leaving those that would fight against you out of your way and their body nothing more than a shell."
He then looked at Tyreal. "It matters little what you think. You have no choice but to participate in this game." He pulled out a handful of stone cards, then set three of them in a line face-down. Those three then floated to somewhere in the middle of the three.
"At first I thought your friend would be a nuisance, then I realized exactly how I could use this to my advantage." He chuckled. "In this game we each pick a tile; left, right, or center. Each one has the power to summon one of the unholy creatures that the Aqir either created or pulled from the dark underworld, and out of each three only one can emerge strongest."
He grinned. "Only one person can win this game. Only one person will leave here alive."

Ahanu grinned. He had - with little help, but still - banished a forgotten one from Moonglade, so he reckoned that dealing with weakened monstrosities after they ripped Marilk apart was a good plan. He nodded at Tyreal.
Lisciel shook off the torpor and pointed at the shadows, letting out a conical jet of flame from his palm.

He? By any chance, is his name Locke?
Ignoring the warning, Meyer slowly and carefully began to discard the fragments around the hole.
