West, Palace
Haley is distraught that he has not summoned her since the time she fought with Elijah over the Dark Wizard.
Elijah had confined her to her room, and he had cut her off from the world. The door to the room was guarded, and Haley never saw any one but the maid who brought her food every day.
The closed door, like an impassable chasm, cut her off from the outside world. She tried to communicate with the guards, but they simply stood impassive and deaf to her pleas, and Haley wondered how much longer she would have to go on like this, feeling alone and helpless.
Haley stood by the window, looking at the dark night sky. The moon was enveloped in clouds, and not a ray of light could penetrate the dense masses to reach the earth. The stars seemed to be hidden in the infinite darkness, and the night sky was like a great black curtain, heavy and depressing.
