It started when the first dice was rolled, the role throu up a 17 a green flame flickered to life, the second rolled was a 20 red flame flickered on, 14 rolled a blue flame and a 2 lite a white flame, each flame suspended a foot above the floor, flickering gently. Four flames four points of a diamond. 3 drops of blood willingly given into each flame, a sizzle followed by silence. Then came the unfelt breath of life as the flames merged into a walled diamond in the centre of the room, now burning a vivid purple.
To look under the flame you see the dust covered floor of the old Miller home, a glance above the flame you see bare walls and a lone window showing the dark of night outside.
As you breath out your breath forms like mist in the air, as it passes the flame to the centre of the diamond it freezes and falls to shatter on the ceiling, intrigued you blow across the flames and as before frozen breath falls up and smashes.
As you look on in aw of what you have created a sound comes to your ear no no its not just sound its yes its music, you think it familiar, you can hear it yet it seems far away, you sit down and focus just listening, the sound doesn’t strictly get louder but closer clearer……
Ring a ring of roses a pocket full of posses
A-tishoo! A-Tishri! we all fall dow Ahhhhhhhhh
A old nursery rhyme sang by angelic children unfinished ending in the scream of babes chills you to the bone.. you stand sharply stepping back to the welcomed cold stone wall, giving you Center again, now able to calm yourself you see, all is still all is silent. Your courage returned you step forward to the flame, feeling no heat you step closer , in fact you feel niever heat nor cold, at that moment you hear a cackle, a clash of metal (maybe swords clashing) a roar and then a below of heat from the Center of the diamond. Curiosity grabs you like a long missed loved one, you step up to the point where the flame laps at your clothes, you don’t notice the colour change at contact with you, no longer calm purple now a odd blackness forms. You lean forward and see another place , not just a place but another world, dragons fly around a distant mountain, a battle between a knight and is that a, yes a minotaur with a great sword, something flashes green and red across the distant sky.
Before you can step forward or even back a giant scaled claw reaches up graves your head and pulls you in to ?????
The flame blinks out!
