Ritual

The young paladin walked out of the abbey. He was close to finishing the program and would soon be on his way to Stormwind to finish his training. But as one of the older students at the abbey, he sometimes was asked to help guard the others. He’d walk around the outside of the building once or twice, and that was usually about it.

On this day, it was an early morning walk. The birds in the trees around the abbey were just beginning to wake up. The sunlight was just creeping into the skies. The area was calm and quiet, which made this kind of patrol somewhat enjoyable.

As the paladin turned the corner around the back of the abbey, he came to abrupt halt. On the ground next to the back wall, were three wide, black candles that had burned low before being snuffed out. Strange symbols had been drawn in the dirt next to the candles. And in between the candles was a dead snake that had been cut open. 

“Oh Light!” the paladin whispered before turning and running back to the entrance of the abbey.

Snakes, why'd it have to be snakes?
