After all, you Red were the main reason she got to join us in the first place all those402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eHOPhj2dW
years ago. Do you remember? Anyway, one day she just decided to leave without a402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuybIz30idz
word to anyone and we have never heard from her since.”402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBm6To7xDK
The clouds and everything below them are yet again flashed with white, as another402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXsxZFy66O
thunderous scream echoes way up above their heads. Red lowered his brow and would402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOO8J3m4WX
take a deep breath before he would dare raise it back up again... slightly...402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwE3i3BkpzU
“She disappeared?”402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AJAyd7jwI
“It is not your fault Red,” replied Harigar Rhim.402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBH0XQIlBi5
“Yes, she has always made her own choices,” added Deena.402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgOEqjn891
“It was just like that huh?” Red insisted while staring back at them.402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSJZDR0quW
“She was gone?” he asked again, this time facing Deena, and although he may have402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevhzeYxHT9
been staring at one or the other, the truth in its rawest form, was that his questions402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXhjxpXUFw
confronted everyone here “What really happened. Can any of you at least tell me402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk0hI3Ce95
that much? Marce?” It was obvious that the captain did not want to continue with402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9I4UgQsLe
this subject and so he immediately decided to bring this to an abrupt conclusion, as402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDGTB8zSB6
his final words on the matter began around the same time as his newfound footsteps402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7xyRfRKbU
brought everyone starting to follow him...402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxPVa4oosk
“One morning we all woke up to her disappearance. She was just gone. We had402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIA6BfM4PZc
decided to spend the night in an inn amidst the frozen lands, way up to the far north402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUzZQ0Bq9H
as we were, of course, yet on another mission. We were forced to seek refuge from a402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUkaJD2WN3
sudden storm, and what a storm it was; the flying snow raging, the howling winds alone402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMoWvF84dG
seemed like they could cut any part of you left uncovered if you dared to promenade402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObb1iyK7ra
outside, you remember the aggressiveness of the north don’t you Red?402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5WlpIe8jH
Anyway, conditions were met that forced us to a stop and so we did. I won’t vouch402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1cZTmZGt5
for anyone else, but I am certain that few, if any of us, had any sleep that night.402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyFjR6wNgm
Not in that cold, not with those raging and screaming winds outside every window.402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYi0GP9EFS
The storm came to pass, and a warm morning took its place, but besides the relief of402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNC0i7HqfAU
a sunnier vista, that rising sun also brought us breakfast and its carrier, the innkeeper402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjXykqQoAD
who approached us with dire news. Such a sweet old lady she was. She approached us402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHDvI4GkVJ
with the news that the woman in our party, the tall and pierced one - I’ll never forget402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7q83a4iIM
the way she described her - had left during the night and had instructed her not to say402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0NXXyznQ8
a word to any of us. We were to be left unaware of her departure till it was too late to402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBppV03YfeT
try and stop her...”
“That tall woman in yer party captain, the one with her skin pierced all402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5aiXqaNtf
over and a big spear behind her back, she just wandered into the night. Why,402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgMynF9FI8
she disappeared as if absorbed by the storm. Off she went into those raging402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ752qJvnAGM
white blizzards, the likes which I’ve never seen in all my years living here.402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTGlEjNHtj
She left behind only the coin to pay your bill and the instructions for my silence. Not to say402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEivSQ78Ej
a word I was, not until morning came.”
“The innkeeper did as she was told Red, and so only by morning time, did we learn402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GneOIJZIo
of what had transpired during the night.402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijt0ZfOQxO
We were all so very exhausted from the hardships we had faced up to that point, that402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaT3kl8CkJZ
none of us were in any condition to notice someone as skilled as Elistia taking leave.402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZhwV0E5iJ
We were too tired to notice most of the things we usually do, too tired to keep our402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcmfuIxMRB
eyes open whilst at the same time too tired to sleep as well. It was a strange night for402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54J2xgWJMl
all of us. We were left behind, speechless around that small table, while Deena went402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsXhzrmFzb
out after any signs, but no tracker would have been able to find a clue. Not after that402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdCJhu26Pj
storm. Elistia was one of us after all, and one of the Wurad, so no one would ever be402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRXsnA91BH
able to pick up her trail; not unless she wanted them to.402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXF0rO04Rq
So, what else was there for us to do, rather than mourn?402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGf0vHV7FZM
We had our time of silence for the loss of one of our own, one that left us by her own402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPTrzkfARN
accord, and then shortly after we got back to our duties. I guess we all deep down felt402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0rD0NedCb
or at least hoped that being one of the Wurad, she had just gone back to her tribe but402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrap6YoG1QY
in all honesty, to this day, none of us can claim to know for sure where she was headed402Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCH5TjmTcv
and what intentions drove her.
