Into The Dark [ISG]
« on: August 26, 2016, 12:30:22 am »

There is one small bud on the branch of a little world tree.

What kind of creature grows from the bud?

The bud opens up, uncurling to reveal 8 legs.

The bright little spider falls from the tree. What does it do?

Preemptively apologising now that I realise how difficult it would be to effectively convey the destruction of the background.

The spider hungrily devours the darkness, leaving a hole into the strange fabric behind reality.

It grows in size, but diminishes in brightness.
What does it do now?

The spider expels the darkness onto the world tree. The spider brightens and shrinks, while the world tree dims and grows.

The darkness tries to close the tear in itself and expel the strangeness, but it resists, trying to give itself shape.
