Sometime during the night, something begins to light up the darkness.
Whenever you wake due to the growing light likely mistaken for the sun rising, you feel far too warm. Opening a door or a window quickly proves to be a bad idea though as it feels like opening a hot oven. Strong, hot gusts of wind rattle windows and doors, tear any clothes from their drying lines, and knock over anything that isn’t tethered down. Plant life begins to wither on their vines from the sudden increased heat.
Charlie and Dimitri are already awake and standing in the middle of Town, eyes locked on the strangely colored sky. Everything seems washed in a pale light. If you follow their gaze, they are fixated on the brightest point of light in the sky that appears directly positioned above Town itself. It is a slowly widening, disk that is almost too bright to look at for long.
The pair of natives seem not just fixated... but there is a clear look of fear there.
It isn't long before that disk widens more, almost like a hole being torn into the sky itself, and something begins to emerge.
It's a... hand? Not just one, it seems, as another reaches out from beyond the veil. Then another, and
another still. Countless human-looking arms reach out from the open hole in the sky, grasping the edge of it as if to gain purchase and pull itself forth.
At last, something larger emerges. A long snout is seen first and then a head of bright, blindingly white fur with perfectly sloped winged ears and glassy curved antlers.
A halo of light surrounds
Her.
She is the most beautiful thing you have ever seen.
The eyes also scatter down her impossibly long form, all as radiant as her own. Shining with colors you cannot describe and have not seen before but are hypnotic all the same.
The heat outside intensifies.
You hear Charlie scream something, but the buzzing in your brain is too loud to make it out.
Those eyes show you everything you've ever wanted. Everything you need. They make silent promises. Comply and be rewarded richly for She has the power to make it happen for you. You are certain She does.
But then they show you what will happen to those who decline. Your greatest insecurities, traumas, and dreads are all exposed. The deepest, most painful corners of your mind are laid bare.
She can deliver that, too.
( Make a Constitution check and add your modifier, if you total below a 15, you feel nauseous, fearful, weak and small. )
"𝒴𝑜𝓊 𝓅𝑜𝑜𝓇, 𝒾𝓃𝓃𝑜𝒸𝑒𝓃𝓉 𝓈𝑜𝓊𝓁𝓈. 𝒯𝓇𝒶𝓅𝓅𝑒𝒹 𝒽𝑒𝓇𝑒 𝒷𝓎 𝓂𝓎 𝒹𝑒𝒶𝓇, 𝓂𝒾𝓈𝑔𝓊𝒾𝒹𝑒𝒹 𝓈𝑜𝓃. 𝐼 𝒸𝒶𝓃 𝒻𝒾𝓍 𝒽𝒾𝓈 𝒻𝑜𝓁𝓁𝒾𝑒𝓈. 𝐻𝒶𝓇𝓀𝑒𝓃 𝓉𝑜 𝓂𝑒 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝒷𝑒 𝓈𝓅𝒶𝓇𝑒𝒹. 𝒴𝑜𝓊𝓇 𝒻𝒶𝒾𝓉𝒽 𝒾𝓃 𝓂𝑒 𝓌𝒾𝓁𝓁 𝓈𝒽𝒾𝑒𝓁𝒹 𝓎𝑜𝓊.

Then, the the sky begins to weep fire. The white-hot comets come raining down, smashing into buildings and people alike without prejudice. They explode and send chunks of debris flying everywhere. Many of the locals scream, some will die, and most will run.
⁂ Ice-breathing dragons will find their breath weapon very useful here.
Along with the weeping sky, creatures
start to pour from that portal She opened.
They are dragons- or were. Now they are nothing but animated bones of dragons. Still, they fly by some magic. They fly and come to attack anyone who tries to flee, viciously ripping people apart. They advance on Town, coming to finish what the fire did not.
⁂ Acid-breathing dragons will find that they are quite effective at melting bone.
Suddenly, a defiant roar cracks the chaos, and where once Charlie stood, a massive, spiraling torrent of golden light shoots up to meet the assailant in the sky.
He looks quite similar in form, though lacking eyes and endless hands.
