he has scaled the sheer cliffs & unassailable mountains of this remote area on a wish to flee humanity. to be outside of it’s purview once & for all after facing nothing but the cruelty of mankind since creation. there was only so much rejection even an ill-gained heart could take, the creature was sure of it, & it would be better to find solace in the desolation of sheer peaks than to face anymore of the lonely reality offered by the wider world.
& so it is in complete surprise that he stumbles across the keep, storm raging overhead & illuminating the night sky in great flashes of light. each sending sharp relief across the architecture & creating clawing hands and demonic forms in the shadows cast. it seemed ancient even among the desolation of the mountain range he had been scaling.
but it would be shelter.
even with a body untouchable by illness or age, the creature still felt the pervasive cold of the driving rain & sleet. this alone was enough to drive him towards the structure, loping with incredible speed across the bridge spanning near-bottomless gap & into a courtyard that offered only a little more cover from the elements than he had known previously. quick inspection saw the addition of a stable area and he rushed towards it; though he drew nothing but contempt from humans, animals shared not so much of their terror & he hoped he could find respite among whatever animals resided here, if any, before the night ended and whoever owned such a remote location could discover him to know anger over it.
