Snowflakes are frozen in motion, falling from a grey-toned sky, seemingly illuminated by the setting sun. A moment in time is captured forever as four friends stand side by side, arms linked. They seem to stand in an order, the two taller of the group on the outside, while the two shorter stand inbetween them. On the outer left stands a strong looking Troll, tall and weathered. A smile graces his face, evidence of the good time he's had with his companions, even as snowflakes accumulate on his cloak.  Opposite of him, on the right, stands the tallest of the group, a Horkval. His body is well-toned and he has a dark complexion, and little white flakes of snow are evident in his brown hair. He, too, is smiling. Next to him stands a short Rajamalan, her tail curled happily around her waist as she beams brightly, long amethyst hair swaying with the wind. To her left is a Satyr, almost half a foot taller than her, but shorter than the other two. There is a thoughtful look on his face even as he smiles, tanned skin, as well as the brown fur of his lower body, hidden beneath a cloak, as black as the horns that adorn his head. The four of them seem diverse, but they are not out of place as they stand next to each other, brought together by their Oath to forever serve nature. Behind them, to their right, is a lovely marble statue depicting Lord Scarlatti as he etches a picture of His beloved, the Goddess of Love and Beauty, Lady Selene. Closer, to their left, stands a shrine to Lady Selene, countless numbers of flower petals strewn about the area surrounding it. Directly behind them stands a town guard, tall and dashing as he watches them carefully. At their feet is a tiny flower, surviving in the snow thanks to the power of the Divine that put it there, always to regrow, no matter how many pick it, with the childish hope that it will tell them whether or not their love truly loves them.

You notice an instability in the realms - destruction appears palpably iminent

A great crashing is heard in the heavens above followed by a long silence and a concerned, "Oops."
