The Convent of the Weeping Lady
The Bishop called upon all the convents in the diocese to send their most capable Brides of the Lightbringer. Few were dispatched to the remote convent - so very few. One of the individuals was Sister Mercy, the broad-shouldered, blonde-haired daughter given to the convent as a baby.  Another was the always-ill Sister Narcissa, who walked slowly and looked as though she might be too pale to be living. The third was Sister Temperance, the Cantor of a distant Convent House who was the only available body they could send.

And so, all three were assembled before the aged Sister Supieror.
"Sisters, Brides to the Lightbringer, we have an issue I need your assistance with.

"Nine and Ninety years ago, on this very spot before the convent itself stood on this spot, a shepherdess was watching her flock. From the heavens, a star fell - and it hit the earth and created a deep pit before the girl's eyes.

"A month later, the first of the formorian horrors escaped the pit and attacked the village, miles away. The bishop established this Convent house to protect the village. And so we have done so, for ninety-nine years.

"And then the last of the Sisterhood here did not return. You are all who have answered the call since the last full moon. Tonight is the night when the horrors rise. I need you to enter the pit and put down the horror... and if you can, find out what happened to our sisters."


The old woman shuffled aside, revealing a spiral stairway leading down into darkness...
