The Silver Night passed by in a blur. Ishiki practiced with his sword a little, his body went through familiar forms while his mind was elsewhere. Afterwards, he had an almost hefty meal, of some monster meat that Nina brought for him.
Now he laid in the same, old rags that had served as his bed for quite some time now.
He scowled. 'Bed my ass, its like sleeping in a pile of garbage.'
It was scratchy fabric that smelled faintly of mildew. But it was better than freezing to death on bare floor, so he didn't complain.
Outside.
In the eternal starless sky, the Silver celestial body was suddenly consumed by shadows. Darkness spread across its surface like ink and then it was set aflame at the edges.
The oppressive darkness of the night was chased away by the strange crimson luminance that bathed the world in a ghastly illumination. Everything took on the color of old blood.
