When the Rain Sings
The rain fell in unison, as if the entire town of Cascadia was a single, great instrument played by an invisible hand. Santiago hunched over the piano, his fingers tapping the keys hesitantly, as though each note was a drop of rain that would join the symphony outside. The house groaned around him, its wooden beams aching with the weight of the endless downpour. The scent of damp wood and the faint musk of mold filled the air.

Shadows of the Lithilium
Frengton had always had an unsavory reputation, known to be the home of more than one rouge and outlaw trying to evade the grasp of justice even before the Lithilium came out of hiding and started systematically disabling human governments. Frengton had been one of the first regimes to fall, though no one was really sure why it was targeted since it wasn't really a hot bed of political power. With the loss of centralized leadership to enforce and make laws all kinds of petty slum lords rose up to take their place. Within a few weeks it became risky to even walk around the town without some kind of protection. There were muggings, kidnappings, and every other kind of unspeakably evil acts that you could imagine. In fact, if Tealith's business in the town wasn't so important she would have never come within a hundred miles of the place.
