Azgul Fortress - The Gloom

Solana dismissively opens a black portal with a wave of her hand.
Go then, my children will meet you there...

Her business with the lich is finished for now.
The Nightshade had more interesting matters to attend to.

Rabbit...I am Solana the Nightwalker, and I have given up potential size and physical might for magical prowess.
Become my student, my acolyte, and I will teach you my ways.

As she speaks, a thin bar of darkness fades into existence, held between her hands as if it had always been here.
While Solana explains that Rabbit need not stay at all times, the bar transforms into a shortsword of solidshade. She hands it to the human, perfectly balanced for Rabbit.
