Equinox
Publisher: Daneen McDermott

Introduction: There are fleeting places in this world, places that are no more lasting than a shadow.
Legend holds that the most fleeting among those eldritch places is a building that exists
for only 12 hours on two days of the year: the spring and fall equinoxes. Reports about
what the building contains vary greatly: Some say it’s a monastery; others, a library; still
others are convinced it’s a temple. But all these different reports agree on one item: On
the equinox, the building appears on a high hill when the first rays of dawn strike the tip of
a tall white tower (twin to a black tower opposite it), and it disappears the same day at
sunset when the last light leaves the twin black tower.
