from hereArithon opens the door and shadows spill out. His clothing reverts from the changed items of cloth that Tom made for him into the tatters and rags of his original clothing. Even as lightning flashes outside, tables and chairs are knocked over by shadows spilling from the once-again tormented Master of Shadows. The long-Healed burn on his hand returns to the just-wounded state that it had been in when he arrived.
Thrown into the same instant as he left, Arithon's face shifts from resistance and pain back to the pure hatred that abjures all redemption. In purest, bloody hearted passion, he howls and once more casts shadow in answer to Lysaer's betrayal.
The shadows wrap around Joe and Svava, ready with their baggage, and sweep them through the door. It also grabs
Tom Riddle and Andrew Wells, unprepared and unready for the storm.
Arithon, too, is dragged out by his own power...and the door slams
closed behind them with a bang.
It opens again immediately, and the five who left enter one by one, with bundles and trunks. They look like they've been through a war. Arithon turns, sane again, and closes the door quietly but firmly behind himself.
