{The doors to the Cabaret Room come flying open. All activity within the room ceases and all eyes fall on the doorway. A light fog forms at the entrance and a shadowy figure appears. The fog starts to glow a deep redish color, and instantly ignites into flames. As the flames slowly die off the figure in the shadows walks through and is revealed to be Xeros. He looks around the room at all the new faces, and sees some familiar faces from days past.}
Xeros: And just when you thought it was safe in the Pen, I have come back.
{He bows politely and smiles an evil grin, before walking fully into the Cabaret Room and with a flick of his hand, the doors close hard behind him. Xeros walks up to one of the few empty tables and takes a seat.}
