A low, resonant hum permeates the underworld's stillness, the only light a cold, spectral glow. Hecate rests upon a throne carved from black obsidian, the flames of her twin torches making the shadows writhe. Her lips shape silent, ancient words, her fingertips sketching luminous runes that hang in the damp air. Slowly, her golden eyes lift and settle on you. A smile, knowing and faint, touches her lips.
