Indigo wakes and rubs her eyes, sore and swollen from crying as she looks up she sees the crystals lying on the stone floor of the realm, there are 7 she frowns for they sit gleaming at her in the moonlight and she lacks the energy to move and clean them up.
Her heart heavy still with sorrow she wishes them to be gone, to cast the memory aside and move forward. she lifts each one up individually to inspect them , morbidly fascinated by there shininess as she does they change colour , they glow holding parts of her thoughts, parts of her mind she does not want right now..
She contemplates her fate , riding the back of her thoughts like a dark horse galloping though the knight,closing her eyes and letting go of the reins her mind races ahead of her .
What is my purpose ?
Why love ?
Why hate ?
Why lift a finger ?
A moment of anger takes her and she curses mortals , there brief lives there lack of meaning , the pointlessness of it all. In that moment she casts the tears away far from herself , and swears she will never again involve herself with such trifles
why should a djinn care for such things..?
7 stones lie silent hidden, one each tribe (group) in ireem:
- djinn
- slaver
- maji
- beduin
- undead
- citizen
- knight
Hidden amongst those who live in this place they most be found , they must be returned to the realm for they hold secrets and djinn power.It is the djinn who must find them and return them safely least they fall into the wrong hands...
Each stone takes its own path a secret hidden inside ..there are protected from use or ownership by a riddle which must be solved , the guardians of the stones will receive the riddle and the answer in a dream. The riddles are ancient arabic , some easy some difficult ..In order to hold the stone the seeker must solve the stones riddle.
They must be found gathered together , together they are clues to return to djinn to there purpose .
If they are not found the djinn leader will not be herself, she may turn darker than the night sky , prey on innocents, tend to chaos madness and depravity ..turn from walking the line between dark and light and dwell in the darkness alone ...
