[Day 2, Night - A House South of Town]

[Written into the ground alongside one of the houses to the south of town tonight are a series of strange letters, forming a rough circle near the wall. A figure of approximately Loki's build, not there during the day's exploration, leans against the wall at the corner. The door to the house is open.]

[Some hours after the sudden switch from day to night, Loki stands in front of the door, a candle before him, a kitchen knife in one hand and a spoon in the other. He checks the mirror set carefully in the darkness, nothing yet visible in its surface. Then he strikes the knife with the spoon's handle, and he holds his breath - and he waits.]

[The luminescence of the summoning begins to roll out and upward from the inside of the circle, boiling up into the eerie, eldritch form of one of the oldest terrors. The strange, sloped face gazes around the area, some measure of suspicion, surprise and uncanny, feral interest twisting the ancient features.

But almost immediately, it's long, clawed hands clutch it's own form. Something pitch begins to roil up in it.. making the edges of its form insubstantial... the quill like whiskers on its face lengthen, scraping the ground.]

[It's enormous stooped form reaches forward, towards a suggestion of a figure, as if blind. Its back hunches and distorts under its robes.]

You dare... you dare twice and thrice again, you dare!

[Something dark dribbles down from its fangs.]

Is it, a lie? Or are you-[A shudder wracks its form, plumes of black ripple over its features and fingers that stretched out pull back, clawing furrows in its own neck.] You seek

[At that it loses all semblance of the being summoned and simple races forward, lips baring to great fangs.]

[It stands again, something strange, glowing blue and sprouting blue whiskers from every imaginable shambles, stumbles a few steps.

It presses into a suit of broken doll parts, wearing them in not quite the right order... walking without quite acknowledging joints...]

[It stops and sniffs the air, round doll head whipping this way and then that...]

[It roars.

The sound is a scream, ugly rough and bubbling, like some horrific frustration, liquified into noise and vibration.

It echoes off of all the buildings, shuddering in the chests of people in the inns and square to the north. This wretched noise the first truly organic thing anyone had heard beyond each other.]

The beast turns, one wooden leg clicking the cobblestone delicately.]
