A Wrathful Summons

We all gathered around the center, and drew the seven pointed star needed to summon an Eternal. With our doom steel blades, we focused his dark gift into a single point. We all placed our beams of green, smoking magic at the northernmost point of the star, to call upon Wrath himself. Wrath is the most powerful of our seven deadly patrons, and as such, he demanded payment for his arrival. His demand was the life of one who is pure. We gathered for him a feast we believe will be most satisfying. A blue draconin woman. Not only is she strong, as a draconin, but she is with child. Purity unbridaled with an unborn child. This will surely grab his attention.   We bound the woman in the center of the room, and I was given the honor of summoning Wrath with this offering. I was given a long, jagged dagger of the purest doom steel to perform the rite. I drove it through her chest, and the jaggedness of the blade caught on bone, which its acid quickly burned through. Off behind me, through the woman's screams, I could hear a man screaming. The father perhaps? He should consider himself lucky, as he's about to see a sight that no outsiders ever get to see. After the blade left her body, her entire physical form was replaced with raw doom steel.   Above it all, stood a massive figure, clad in thick, jagged, midnight black armor, and a sword of pure green flame. Wrath had been summoned. He said the sacrifice was adequate to aquire an audience, but he was dissapointed at the fact that we had a witness. we all collapsed to the floor, fearful of his wrath, but almost hoping he'd unleash it upon us. Show us his name's true meaning. A high ranking brother dispatched a couple more brothers to deal with this witness. Meanwhile, Wrath looked down upon me. I had never felt a greater feeling of fulfilment than when he looked upon me.   He said the lapse in attention required a token to make it right. He never turned his gaze away from me. I stood, and said, "I accept this blessing!" With burning green magic, he freed me from my physical bonds, and now I live every day in sweet agony, knowing, I now live my true purpose. Because of my willingness, my brothers, and sisters are able to fulfill their purpose on Eternity. Blessed be the flames that bring purpose. And, blessed be the Wrathful being that brings it.
