Moodmark Ceremony
A few days have passed since your excursion in the tunnels. Deep blow the surface of Ravnica an important ceremony was taking place in the Necrose Network . Three women are officially initiated into the swarm properly. Mother Nightsilk has taken the purple gland that you retrieved from the beetles and combined it with other elements to create a pigment known to the Golgari as Moodmark. Now, in Orval's shattered amphitheater you three are presented to the elders of the nest: Nightsilk, Deathgrasp , Shardspear and Slate Eyes .
The final part of the ceremony arrives, and each of you kneels before Nightsilk as she approaches you with the shimmering pigment and a brush made from bone and insect filaments. The thick black tincture is lightly applied to your face first Thana, as Nightsilk adds what look like additional eyes to your brow. You remember speaking to your mentor Caznia. How did you answer the following question: What do you think of the Izzet and their ability to function in the Undercity?
Kallan you are approached next. You rarely take off your mask, but you understand for this important moment, you must do so. Nightsilk begins to add the liquid to your face, using the contours to create an almost snake like appearance. You recall your mentor Orval asking you a single question about your mission. How did you answer when he asked, What did you learn from seeing the Izzet fight?
Marine you are the last to be adorned with the Moodmark pigment. Nightsilk applies it to your face, giving you six more eyes, bestowing a more spiderlike visage. You recall the question she seemed most interested in when you returned from your mission, Nature was always with you upon your path. Now that you have time to reflect, what whisper did you hear upon the path?
With the ceremony completed Nesiss quiet voice speaks, "Rise as truly embraced by the swarm. The path before you is opened, and your guides are prepared to help you on your way. In time may you contribute to the rebirth of all Ravnica." You turn and face the nest assembled around you, now feeling like a part of the swarm.
