[@Thantos]
Hal knew the place that Darko wished to meet just as all the gods did. It was a place within the mortal realm, but also allowed the presence of the deities. It is the one place that the gods use to converse with each other from when they were forbidden to enter each other’s realms. The Grand Creator allowed it, and as such selected guardians to watch over it lest any mortal find it and exploit it. This place was also special as it required physical travel to get there rather than they be able to just enter the [i]in between[/i] realm. 

“Very well,” Hal announced making his way to an arch way leading out of the council room. “Darko wishes a meeting with me, and I must go alone. This meeting shall take place at Grand Table… as such I shall be gone for a short while.” Hal paused a moment as he stretched out his hand and summoned his transport, a Griffin alighted outside the stone arch doorway beautifully colored with a light brownish red body and wings and white feathers for its mane and front ankles. “Maybe, just maybe we may come to an agreement and come to a cessation of his shadows and blood before the true enemy X spoke of makes his move.” With that Hal left the heavens to the base of the Sacred Mountain and began his assent to the top. 

This mountain was special in many was as it was the meeting place of the gods, the focus point of the monks of the Grand Creator, and could overlook a vast majority or the mortal realm. On his way up the mountain Hal felt a two dark and foreboding forces, one he knew to be the armies and forces of Darko, but the other was something new. Looking out across the mortal land the he could see Hal was able to catch sight of some of Darko’s armies attacking villages and towns, and a small village near the plagued Forest was being terrorized by a group of vampires. Seeing this displeased Hal and made his heart sink.
“I guess there is no change of heart for some.” He said with a sad sigh and a turn of his head. “I am afraid this will not be a conversation Darko will enjoy.” Hal continued up the mountain finally reaching the top to find Darko already there.
 “I am here.” Hal announced. “What is it you wish to-“ It was then that Hal noticed the dead guardian that lay within the meeting place. “What is the meaning of this? Explain yourself quickly!” Hal was not pleased when he saw Darko’s forces attacking the innocent while he wanted to discuss a parley, but to see a guardian of the Grand Creator lying dead with Darko present and no context made Hal jump to the darkest of conclusions.
