Twilight of Vellore: The Knight Commander's Presence
The city of Vellore lay out before them like a living gemstone, lit up by the violet light of twilight. The sun had dipped completely below the horizon, leaving streaks of red and gold that gradually seeped into the richening purple of the evening heavens. Above, there were two moons suspended precariously like remote lanterns, but one had apparently disappeared, consumed by creeping darknesses of night as if the very heavens had decided to toy with the city below.
