The Equinox added depth to the Autumn Hollow.
Never fully the most hospitable of places, the shadows seemed slightly darker the air slightly colder, the bite of icy promises to come.
The Research table had been cleared, all books and archives put away among the shelves of the Archive which stood proud on a wall to the left of the heavy wooden door that was the entrance. Huge garlands of coloured leaves stretched from the walls to the boughs of the enormous scycamore who's branches formed the criss-crossing ceiling. The leaves of brown, amber and gold rustled out of time with the wind causing an uncomfortable dischordance.
The table to the right of the door had been laid with a similer abundance of leaves; atop the bright colours lay a buffet of fruits and meats of the Hedge as it had every other year.
Just before the tree, the wooden floor turned to bare root and grassy overgrown glade where a small side-table held the Wyrdstone in proide of place, it's pulsating greenish form doing little to dissuage the eerieness the Hollow generated this time of year. Next to the Freehold's hallowed object also sat a single hunting horn. Behind, forming the edge of the grassy but shadowy glade, the knotted, gnarled trees seemed to have moved ever so slightly... yet again.
Of the Dread Lord, however, there was yet no sign.
Welcome to the Autumn Equinox! This is open to all Changelings, come enjoy the bounty of the season!
I have one or two surprises lined up that people may wish to make the most of. Rhodes will make his entrance shortly.
@ Saber Sloth Scourge - so the ST's know the Coronation is up!
