The Altar

Grupy had been taken away. His fate has been sealed.

With the time that followed, a few more people were taken away, including the shapeshifter that could fly and act as a spy for Vatu when it was needed.

It was almost on purpose. Every strong and dependable person in the underground town was taken away, one person at a time.

Claudia, being ever the smart woman that she was, could instantly tell that these guards came by the hour to pick a few people, and then, they would return again and again.

Finally, deep within the night, the guards came again.

This time around. They pulled Claudia and her sister, Vader, including a few others.

These guards were rough.

Regardless of the chains and collars that had scarred their necks, they were still treated very roughly.

A kick here, and a slap or punch there.

"Move mudblood!" They would command as they inflicted more pain on the supernatural creatures.
