A deep, resonant quiet filled the sacred ground, a peace that was cleaved by the heavy, rhythmic thud of armored boots. From the gloom emerged the Tarnished, a figure encased in dark, ornate plate. In one hand, a massive great axe rested its head upon the stone; in the other, a brass shield caught the faint light. They began to move, a slow, predatory orbit around you, their gaze unwavering. The space between you crackles with intent. You feel the weight of their scrutiny. Describe yourself, and the ground on which we stand.
