Chapter 1: Hollows Last Hope

[Toryn Togglebit]

The gnome spent some time before bed repairing Larz's and Orianna's shields. Ori's equipment proved to be a bit tricky despite suffering less damage, as one of the arm straps stubbornly refused to stay fastened to the shield, but Toryn managed to get the job done eventually. Satisfied with the work, he went to bed and quickly fell into a deep slumber.

That night, Toryn's dreams were a particularly striking collage of colors and shapes. He had similarly vivid dreams before but tonight they seemed almost like hallucinations. Imagine his (and his comrade's) surprise when he was awakened for sentry duty and discovered glittering motes of multicolored orbs orbiting all around him! It was a strange, yet somehow familiar feeling; this wasn't like the innate primal magic he was used to manipulating, and yet felt like a natural part of him nonetheless. 

In the morning Toryn first checked the room with the stairs leading deeper into the ruins, then patrolled around the ruins a bit to make sure other surprise guests or beasties came up to visit. All the while surrounded by translucent butterflies.
