Episode 1: AN HISTORICAL EVENT

The village of Trenthamville

Just over one week ago.

The chants of witches and warlocks alike grew louder and louder in the small farmhouse; their voices reverberating across the fields of the no longer active farm, through the still night air, and into the ears of the village beyond the unkempt fields.   The coven leader read out the words printed on the ancient parchment he held in his hands with the enthusiasm and reverence a general would read to his troops prior to the commencement of battle … the words that had been given to them by the stranger who had told them he understood their desires and ambitions.
  The words, he had told them, that would bring them their lord and master, and they had been more than willing to believe him – to believe every word he had uttered.
They had taken control of the farm.   They had stolen the sacrificial knife as instructed, but they had failed to find the statue.  ‘It mattered not,’ they had thought, ‘our master will still come.’
  And they were right, at least partially.  The hideous creature did come.   Its evil, repulsively deformed face emerging, albeit enshrouded in fire and smoke, from a dimension that existed someplace well beyond the bricks and mortar that was the farmhouse wall.
  The coven members of the Trenthamville chapter were elated at the realization of the creature’s emerging appearance: the thoughts and heartbeats of the witches and the warlocks alike were fast approaching fever pitch as they mentally wished Rangor, the Punjaniti, into the room.  To their way of thinking their lord and master could not arrive fast enough.
  But when the creature realized the statue was not in the room the response was swift … almost merciful; perhaps even a benevolent gesture, considering its mood … but never the less, the witches were made to pay for their mistake.

   Paid for – with their lives.
