「只有人類會在森林騎馬，他們的身形也不可能是矮人，」好不容易跑到躲藏處，黑琴喘著氣、又繼續說：「人類只有和矮人結盟才可能取得矮人的技術，否則，人類的甲冑憑我們精靈的箭矢應該射得穿。」36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zfyjjHFYW

「那那那……該怎麼辦？」36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSHhwL9adJ

啊——36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtdXCLoCPD

一道破蹄的尖叫，是黑琴的媽媽。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeGjx36YSK
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoTisPUgxH
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEIrgvWqyO
黑琴想衝出去，但薩斯奇亞拉住他，他們沒有探頭看發生了什麼事，但那聲尖叫將永遠烙印在他們的記憶裡，尾音未盡地斷掉。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDmhWvzPDk
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWXtqLgf3j
那是黑琴的媽媽、扶養他們的女人，但黑琴和薩斯奇亞卻沒有去救她。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOx5zGsFyO
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99lCTeTVER
他們躲在陰影裡，選擇了彼此的性命。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTPn7I50Ej
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVuPJofNot
顫抖，已經來不及。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPWSLuHUe5
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSosO1LWYY
事後，薩斯奇亞回想，如果自己沒有拉住黑琴，兩人的命運將大大不同，黑琴會為母親、為部落奮戰，但他會死。沒有黑琴的保護，薩斯奇亞逃不過此劫，也就沒有接下來的故事發展，女長老所說「撼動精靈族歷史」的對象，將不存在。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlomDqht3ps
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PXgrQf5vo
命運，或許就是在每一個決定的交織中，影響未來。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52OMR8VR6e
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhFlWm2N7Q
他們後悔嗎？害怕嗎？36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwclrE6fNMh
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rrMiyW8l5
決定已經開始發酵了。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3vzP55oij
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsqUb4fUsE
「那邊！」36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPtuKKrZhO
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjSPvlDCui
人類是從谷口攻進來的，分為左右兩翼包圍部落，進攻的時間點「剛好」是部落守備最弱的一刻，守衛隊結束訓練、外出打獵採集的精靈們也剛回來，警衛交班，家家戶戶正在炊飯，大家都累了一天，等著飽餐，哪有多餘的力氣應戰？36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLc8tfsiRS
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtj1j33henP
再說，丹旭部落長期遠離市鎮、城堡，即使精靈和矮人處於敵對狀態，部落裡的精靈卻從沒傷害過一個人類。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXII68quClH
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVrj4tAZrs
如詩如畫的山谷水草地，頓時成了血流成河的地獄。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwCE59DdQC
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggXSyYb9Wh
受害者，卻還不知道自己做錯了什麼。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yIr3DFbu1
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLCZmp575l
就從此沈默下去。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxeO8bAn7f
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6P9q8IU6Bk
黑琴和薩斯奇亞跑到溪邊的老樹下，發現一群人類和矮人在談話，證實了黑琴的推測是正確的。黑琴握著弓、沈著氣、瞪著那群人，薩斯奇亞從沒見過這樣的黑琴，宛如一頭獵豹，等待最佳的攻擊時機。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJ0Iyfzgls
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu18Zjmls6T
黑琴從不莽撞。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkJwN5RNKP

「薩奇你聽好，要離開山谷，最快的方法就是騎人類的馬。」36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFwX6z041z
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkViVfqAdT
「怎麼騎？」36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhq80MKfLd
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHJn1JvhFM
黑琴掌心發汗，清澈的綠眸似乎不再清澈，他認真地看著薩斯奇亞，心裡起了一股罪惡感，即使知道部落無法禦敵，以他的立場應該挺身奮戰，但他的行為做的是最有效益的選擇——逃命。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzn0GqXOf09
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeixgiF9nlI
他不是部落裡的偶像，他知道自己一直都不是。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkW0vlphft
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAj6cR4QLbj
他們沒有回頭路可走，但他有機會送唯一生還者的精靈離開。36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUW6NklZqu

「人類講話時，把頭盔拿掉了，」黑琴一指溪邊的人，「我會射下人類的腦袋，趁他跌落馬匹時，你去騎他的馬，沿著溪流跑，不要回頭！」36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeiNYPh6Y1
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oHe4LoOaS
「好，」薩斯奇亞學黑琴緊盯溪邊，「那邊有三個人類、一個矮人……你想騎哪匹？」36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL44MftJVLE
36Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcjmgQ6xgH
