Description:

V:TES Columbia.

Prince Fleurdumal declared Miami Art Museum Elysium for the duration of her lavish party. With much of kindred society aflutter with talk of Gehenna, she couldn't resist the chance to host a, tongue-in-cheek, "End of the World" party. Her invited guests, of course, were like-minded cynics and it was unlikely that any of attendees were prepared to deal with the events the evening would bring.

Fleurdumal outdid herself with an ostentatious display of wealth and decadence as was appropriate for kindred society's final soiree. One by one, her guests broke free of their gossip and back-handed compliments to congratulate her on the party's success. Adelaide Davis, neared the front of the receiving line but stood motionless upon reaching Fleurdumal. Adelaide stared blankly and then bellowed, "Hearken to the prophet's words." However, the sounds were that of two voices--one male and one female. "Hearken to the words of the oracle," yelled the male voice.

The second voice belonged to Paulo, a well-liked local artist whose Malkavian sensibilities seemed to rub off on the canvas. Paulo and Adelaide spoke in unison. They continued, addressing the entire room:

Hearken to the diviner's prophecies
Of blood-filled dreams and shortened nights
Of hunger risen to claim its own
Of arrogance turned to ash.

Within the get of Caine there is a hunger stirring
Once, twice, thrice the call to power and death
Will rend the souls of the Thirteen
This is the death without bloodshed
This is the grave that has no ghosts.

Initially, some of the guests believed this was arranged by Fleurdumal to add to the theme of the party. The laughter and smiles were replaced first by concern and then horror as the truth settled in...Malkavians everywhere were simultaneously broadcasting the message. Paulo and Adelaide continued:

There will come a time
when an Elder Darkness will stir
deep below a city which has forgotten
and will surprise the Elder, its children

There will come a time
when an ancient hunger will awaken
deep in the northern woods
and consume her childer

On these signs, you must know,
that Gehenna waits, even at the door,
as an actor waits in the wings
It is coming! It is near!

The speakers raised their arms in unison as they spoke their final proclamation, "Shine black the sun! Shine blood the moon! Gehenna is coming soon."
