It was a cool night in Sularia, a most beautiful place indeed, as alchemists let out fireworks into the night sky in celebration as they often did, creating beautiful explosions which lit the darkness above. There were sudden screams of surprise as an old shack by the road caught fire at a moment's notice, and the demon's shadow went unseen by all but by one woman, who dismissed the briefly-present silhouette as a mere figment of her imagination

The Grand Bazaar was crowded with people of merchants and travellers and haggling customers. The roof was made of several different colours beautifully interwoven together, creating a beautiful sky of many colours that moved rhythmically as the light wind. There was a loud noise; a combination of a roar and a howl, which caused a strong feeling of great unease among the crowd even though it was distant. Some managed to see a very brief golden light of fire in the sky reflected on the ground before it was gone, turned into falling embers, one of which was carried by the wind into the bazaar and landed on a liquor stall, causing it to catch a sudden fire, and as quick as it had started, the stall blew up, 
killing its merchant and severely injuring two folks, reduced to ashes and burning remains.

Meanwhile, the demon watching from his tree, a most hideous grin on his wolf-like face, as his fur swayed rhythmically with the wind and leaves.
