The House of Death
"The only thing inevitable in Life, is Death" ~Tubsambong
Description
The House of Death worship the dark power of the great unknown. Inscribed above the door are the House words; The Only Inevitability in Life is Death. Their Essence boils with green smoke. The House itself is a cavern, which looms over the streets of Massina, and rots the nearby houses and docks. But those who have braved the House of Death and emerged with their lives speak not of horrible ghouls or dark magic - they speak of the silence, a sound so empty and lonely, that it forever sears itself into their memory. A feeling of hopeless loss. The music of Death. The House of Death also has an incredible power– both repellent and irresistible. Its members are blessed with a lack of fear. For they embrace the end of Life.[1]
