"I am the Lord of Darkness. I require the solace of the shadows and the dark of the night. Sunshine is my destroyer. All this shall change. Tonight, the sun sets forever. There shall never be another dawn."

The Lord of Darkness resides in The Great Tree which is filled with all types of strange beasts and nightmarish horrors including giants, demons and goblins. The black shadow of the Lord Of Darkness falls across him. Darkness towers over the ruined castle platform, a huge horned figure drpaed in black cloth. An awesome silence ensues. Blunder and Pox kneel, heaping ashes and dirt upon thier heads.

Blix: "Hail O great One...divine and dark! Strong like a lion, swift like a shark."

Blix offers the silver hair up to Darkness.

Blix: "Though I'm not worthy of the task Great Lord, I found this for your amusment."

Blunder leaps to his feet and grabs the hair from Blix.

Blunder: "Don't listen to them mealy-mouthed lies boss...I'm the one who found it! Me! Blunder the Bold!"

There is a bight flash of light. Blunder howls with pain. Blunder stares at his arm in dismay. His hand is gone, magically replaced by a grotesque birdclaw.

Blunder(stunned): "Thank you, Lordship!"

Darkness dangles the shining silver hair in front of him.

Darkness: "Where...?"

Blix: "In the woods, six leagues back, 'Tween Twin Oaks and the Dragon's Track."

Darkness: "Did my bold hunters chance to see quarry which cast this spoor?"

Blix: "I stalked it, Sire, but much too slow, What beast it be I do not know."

Darkness: "This hair is from an angel of light...It comes this way rarely...I must have this creature!"

Blix: "Oh Divine Dark One, teach us how to catch this creature."

Pox: "Your instruction would be m-m-most ap-p-preciated."

Blunder: "Amen! I wants to learn! I craves knowledge!"

Darkness: "No trap of yours will work. There is only lure for such disgusting goddness...one bait which never fails..."

Blix: "Name the bait, Lord..."

Darkness: "Innoncence!"
