He walked forward towards the man, his steps small and laborious. "Allow me to be the first to welcome you to the Sixth Umbral Era, which has just begun. You are in the Black Shroud, outside of Gridania. What is left of it. Your coming, Thal aspect of death, is very well-timed. I should not be surprised."
He gestured to the darkness and said, "The Shroud is possessed of vicious spirits, maddened now. They seek to harm you. If you trust me, we can get you out of here in one piece."
