    Familiarity.

    It can be comforting and soothing.

    Or it can be menacing and terrifying.

    At the moment, Robin has no way to know which way to feel.

    He sits in the gloom pondering his current situation and feeling very much like a fool.
    It all seemed so palpable. Real danger. Actual wounds with places now occupied by actual scars.
    Memories held and skills learned while trapped in The Stone House. He’s had dreams before. Of course he has.
    And although it’s not always easy to distinguish experience from fantasy, he felt like he had a pretty good handle on the difference.
    Now…not so much.

    The boundaries of this place cannot be seen as yet.
    But the sounds of his own breath belie the approximate size of the space.
    Not much light here, but what there is, is dim and bluish.
    At the edges of his perception there are frames defining the boundaries fading into view.
    As the smoke loiters, the paintings are more visible than before.
    Walls obscured by heavy curtains are dominated by enormous old frames enclosing a number of vivid paintings.

    They are gathered here as if to a wake - watching him. Waiting for Robin to view them.
    The overriding desire of all paintings is to be experienced. To be appreciated. To be seen.
    Each possesses the essence of the one who created it.
    Imbued with the passion, the anger, the lust, the drive that compelled the hand which brushed them into life.
    They have hung here for an eternity. Waiting. Waiting to fulfill their purpose.

    They have dark gifts to give. And they can sense that he is ready.

about

William had made a mistake.
A very serious mistake indeed.

So many of his years had been spent bridging his two worlds.
Here, in our world he was a man of respect and power over others.
A figure of vast wealth and means to do whatever he wished.
He was accustomed to luxury and pampering.
Protected by forces both human and otherwise.
His followers were unshakable in their belief.
There in that other place, he was a servant to the dark.
Charged with feeding a horrible presence possessed of an unrelenting hunger for flesh and spirit.
William had served his master well and fooled his neighbors for decades.

Now all that was coming to a crashing finish.

The doctors had told him it was terminal and nothing could be done for him.
William began to put his earthly affairs in order.
He tried to put on a despondent front to fool his supporters.
But in truth he was elated. He never really felt comfortable in this life. In this skin.
He was going to die. And finally receive the rewards he had worked so hard for all this time.
He was going to take one more life before his own time ran out.
He didn’t know it Immediately although he certainly felt there was something different about her.
He had watched her for some time and had decided that she would be his last.
And after that he would return home to the void.

Lydia also lived her life across two very different worlds.
Her friends always thought of her as a sweet, unaffected person.
Always willing to help and support all those around her.
Her mother, Joy, had always taught her to keep her true nature hidden.
“Don’t make the same mistakes I made. You’ll go very far indeed”.
Both women had gifts of extraordinary insight and incantation.
There had been a few incidents in childhood that Joy had been able to keep quiet.
But nothing more than hysterical children believing they had seen something impossible.
Lydia grew to become very powerful in her twenties.
But, surprisingly had shown incredible self control as she became stronger.
The power had grown, but failed to corrupt her soul or spirit.
Joy could sense that Lydia was ready to care for a terrible spell that all of her line had passed down.
Once cast it would place the victim in their own personal Hell, in complete opposition of all their desires.
However, it comes with a terrible price. Whoever casts the Hex shall suffer the same fate.

And the day came that Joy disappeared.
Lydia knew in her heart that she was dead.
More than this she knew who had taken her.
He is coming for her. She will allow him to take her. And their fates were bound together.

lyrics

The Lazarus Hex

They believed him a gentle man
With a smile and a guiding hand
Too blind to know that they were blind
Living for the shadows in his mind
Feeding the monster all of the time

Holding the demons down
In the black light dimension he found
Too proud to care about the price
Nothing here could satisfy his vice
Burning alive under the ice

No embers alive
No cowards survive here
Imprisoned against their will
The phantoms that fell
Invited to dwell here
Resisting their tormentor still
The righteous move in for the kill

She believed him a gentle man
And she smiled as she took his hand
Too young to know he was insane
The monster didn’t even know her name
Pleading for time struck down the same

She whispered the words
Destroying the doorway
Aware of the price to her soul
The spirits that heard
Would judge him their own way
And take back the lives that he stole
The inferno would spit him back whole

------------------------------------------------+

He isn’t reborn
He’s not resurrected
He never had left this place
The ones that he knew
Had never suspected
The beast that was wearing his face

His secret is known
He’s stranded forever
And no one remembers his name
The spell that she cast
Would cost her forever
But he would be paying the same
A pawn in the damnation game
