The stone city of Athia lay beneath a pall of thick, dark clouds, a fitting backdrop for the heavy hearts dwelling within its walls. The city's ancient architecture, once a marvel of artistry and craftsmanship, now seemed to sag under the weight of if's history. Towering spires and intricate stonework were veiled in shadows, the carvings of mythical creatures appearing more like grim specters in the dim light. Narrow, winding streets crisscrossed through the city, their cobblestones slick with a drizzle that added to the city's somber mood.
The once-magnificent Duskwood Estate, a beacon of healing and hope, now stood as a grim testament to despair. Its grand facade, adorned with ivy and ornate windows, had grown eerie and forlorn, the once-vibrant gardens now choked with overgrowth and decay. Beyond its iron gates, a throng of desperate citizens cried out, their voices mingling in a discordant plea for salvation. Faces twisted in fear and anger peeked through the crowd, the eerie glow of blue veins marking the afflicted.
One woman clutched her arm, the veins pulsating painfully as she screamed, scratching at her skin in a futile attempt to rid herself of the blight's torment. Nearby, a man muttered incoherently, his eyes wild with the madness that followed the blight's progression. The pungent scent of desperation and decay lingered palpably in the atmosphere, enveloping the once-thriving metropolis of Athia, now a desolate shell of its former self, with its streets hauntingly deserted despite being the abode of countless souls.

Amidst the grandeur of his home, Eamon Duskwood, just seventeen, felt the weight of his legacy pressing down upon him. Tall and lean, he wore finely tailored clothes of exotic fabrics. His straight, dark brown shoulder-length hair often fell into his solemn gray eyes as he moved. Faint blue veins traced the inside of his wrists, just beginning to glow—a sign that the blight had touched him. At times, a sharp, stinging pain shot through his veins, though it was not yet debilitating.46Please respect copyright.PENANAMZ8LUnbA3z
46Please respect copyright.PENANAncm092QJmT
Eamon walked slowly down the long hallway to his bedroom, a corridor lined with artifacts hinting at a heritage of marvels. His furrowed brow and downcast eyes revealed a constant inner turmoil, as if wrestling with unseen horrors. His hesitant steps and fidgeting hands betrayed a lack of confidence. Faint, almost imperceptible sighs escaped his lips, hinting at a burden of uncertainty weighing heavily on his shoulders. Despite his attempts to appear composed, a subtle tremor in his voice betrayed the fragile facade he desperately tried to maintain.46Please respect copyright.PENANAif3w57sliJ
46Please respect copyright.PENANA7oTm4hoYuJ
Among the relics from his parents' expeditions were treasures beyond imagination: unmelting ice from frozen lands and boots whispered to bestow the gift of walking on water. These tangible wonders painted a picture of extraordinary feats, tales of which resonated through the very walls around him. He paused by the boots, remembering his mother's stories of her adventures across enchanted lakes.46Please respect copyright.PENANAEh5LqahOt7
46Please respect copyright.PENANAchTrrVodmP
However, despite being surrounded by such proof of the miraculous, he found himself ensnared by a heavy cloak of expectations, feeling like an unworthy heir to a lineage of revered healers. The weight of his doubts contrasted starkly with the enchanting treasures that told stories of adventures and wonders beyond the ordinary, creating a poignant juxtaposition within his conflicted heart.46Please respect copyright.PENANAhlxkCo4qPF
46Please respect copyright.PENANAM6HmWKYW5E
As he reached his bedroom door, he could still hear the desperate cries from outside. The sight of those glowing blue veins haunted him, a constant reminder of his inability to find a cure. The plague's grip tightened with each passing day, and with it, the heavy cloak of expectation grew ever more suffocating.
Eamon's hands, hidden within the folds of his intricate robes, clenched into fists as the knowledge gnawed at his spirit. He, too, was a carrier of the very plague he wished to vanquish. The dark blood that coursed through his veins held both the potential for healing and the harrowing risk of succumbing to the same madness that ravaged the souls below. He had trained in the healing arts with his father since a small child. Now, this power that should have been his greatest ally, loomed over him as his most perilous foe. To call upon it was to dance on the knife-edge of sanity, to risk the very essence of his being in the pursuit of a salvation that might never come.
He strolled over to a towering window in his bedroom. With both hands he drew back the heavy velvet drapes, revealing a balcony that hung over the tumultuous scene below. His gaze, locked in a distant trance, traced the movements of his parents amidst the gathered throng. They were clerics of renown, their hands raised in futile supplication, weaving ancient spells that once held the power to soothe the deepest of woes. But now, their once powerful healing magic was rendered impotent against the virulent plague that spread like wildfire, a tide of unseen death that brought with it a maddening despair. The noise from below floated up to him, a cacophony of pleading cries and frustrated shouts. Eamons's parents stood on the frount steps of their home trying to calm the crowd.46Please respect copyright.PENANApvWiNG76Bt
46Please respect copyright.PENANAhZe9mKg2gd
“Please, everyone, understand,” his mother’s voice rang out, strained yet composed. “We are doing everything in our power to find a cure. The Arcane Blight is a formidable foe, and our magic, while strong, is not enough to counter it completely.”46Please respect copyright.PENANACOz7DIm2NP
46Please respect copyright.PENANAsVEXbiSNX4
His father, a tall man with a commanding presence, added, “We are working tirelessly with other healers and scholars. Hope is not lost.”46Please respect copyright.PENANA8FDGw36joL
46Please respect copyright.PENANA6cGFYnM5lW
But their reassurances seemed to do little to pacify the crowd. Eamon could see the fear in their eyes, the same fear that gnawed at his own soul. The Arcane Blight was spreading rapidly, turning a gift into a curse. Those who used magic risked accelerating their descent into madness.
Eamon leaned into the chill of the windowpane, letting it anchor him to the moment, away from the creeping dread that stalked his thoughts. The Blight's menace had wrapped its tendrils around his consciousness, an ever-present specter he fought to ignore.46Please respect copyright.PENANABKmuyP6m1u
46Please respect copyright.PENANAL4PvVAP8Sd
"Eamon!" The call from his father reverberated up the stairwell, slicing through his moment of solitude. "We need you down here."46Please respect copyright.PENANAhmvc01b8SY
46Please respect copyright.PENANAcoNgkz3loy
With a heavy heart, Eamon peeled himself from his sanctuary of glass and cold, descending the sweeping staircase. The sounds of disarray swelled with each step, a cacophony that beckoned him into the fray. Eamon's hand trailed along the banister, a lifeline to steady him as he descended the grand staircase. The call from his father intensified, piercing through the thickening tumult like a beacon in the storm. Arriving at the end of the staircase, Eamon crouched to secure his boots, their leather creased and comforting to the touch. Drawing in an emboldening breath that filled his lungs with resolve, he crossed the portal of the familiar, emerging onto the front steps to stand shoulder to shoulder with his parents.
"Eamon," whispered his mother, her gaze catching his—a silent pool of concern that reached beyond the assembled throng outside. "Come, stand with us. Let them see our unity."46Please respect copyright.PENANAcf0jSgPlxt
46Please respect copyright.PENANAK8yRmvwuEe
With a subtle nod, Eamon masked his reluctance. He stepped into the dawning day, the soft glow of the morning light casting long shadows behind him as he took his place beside his mother and father. The crowd's murmur swelled into a tangible blend of hope tinged with doubt.46Please respect copyright.PENANARKvZCmuARv
46Please respect copyright.PENANAwYlI9Daq3j
A woman's voice cut through, laced with urgency, "Eamon, can you lend your strength?" She clutched her child close, her eyes a mirror of the plea. "You bear the Duskwood name—surely, you are a healer to, are you not!"46Please respect copyright.PENANAB01kz7rRKI
46Please respect copyright.PENANAJtzbt1ZWyX
The weight of expectation pressed against Eamon's chest. "I am not my parents," he confessed, his voice threading through the air, fragile as gossamer. "Yet, we strive with all we have. Trust in us."46Please respect copyright.PENANAWbG86ojVBk
46Please respect copyright.PENANAH7xM2nKM31
The words echoed, faint as a ghost's whisper, in his own ears. He yearned to be their pillar, the lighthouse in their storm. But the shadow of the Arcane Blight loomed over him, a shroud of fear that stifled his courage.46Please respect copyright.PENANAZgthei0md8
46Please respect copyright.PENANACgWh0ta9Rd
As the clamor of the crowd surged, a steadying pressure came upon his shoulder. His father's hand, silent but resolute, anchored him—a wordless vow of solidarity. Still, the specter of foreboding clung to Eamon, a whisper in his heart that their time was dwindling, slipping like sand through an hourglass.
"And yet, the truth was a bitter draft to swallow, a concoction of their own vulnerabilities and the stark reality that faced them now. Eamon's words were not the incantations of change they had so desperately hoped for. They were, instead, an admission of shared frailty—a human echo in a time demanding miracles.46Please respect copyright.PENANA6VLpCGyysI
46Please respect copyright.PENANAje0J3SU7l3
The crowd's restlessness grew, a shifting sea of bodies and sighs. One by one, the light of belief in their eyes flickered and waned. They had come seeking a beacon, a sign that the tide of their misfortunes would turn at the hands of the Duskwood lineage. But hope, once brimming, now seeped away, leaving in its wake a hollow resignation.46Please respect copyright.PENANA5IglPpzR6l
46Please respect copyright.PENANAmb7Fknaqiv
A man at the back turned, his departure silent but thunderous in implication. It was the first of many ripples, a collective resignation that swept through the gathering. The woman with the urgent plea, her child now a weight too heavy with the burden of unmet dreams, gave Eamon a last look—a wordless apology for her misplaced faith—and followed.46Please respect copyright.PENANAlBG5K87IHf
46Please respect copyright.PENANAUa0iippBUz
The departure was not a retreat but a withdrawal, a silent acknowledgment that the Duskwood's power, or lack thereof, could not mend the fractures of their world. Eamon watched, the stone of helplessness growing in his gut, as the crowd thinned, their silhouettes vanishing into the town's alleys and homes.46Please respect copyright.PENANAPKJPEcKPgb
46Please respect copyright.PENANAmJnF4GiKgZ
His mother's hand found his, a lifeline in the stillness that ensued. They stood together, a family united not by the strength they could wield, but by the stark truth they had to face. The Duskwood name remained, but the legend had crumbled, leaving them exposed under the scrutiny of the evening sun, their vulnerabilities laid bare for all to see. Eamon watched, his heart sinking, as his parents too turned their backs on the scene of lost faith, their steps retreating towards the family estate. They left him standing alone, a solitary figure bathed in the rays of the sunset that painted the city in hues of amber and gold.46Please respect copyright.PENANAbgIMfCP8nd
46Please respect copyright.PENANAYhzm9Ac9ue
The warmth of the fading light contrasted sharply with the cold emptiness that had settled in his chest. The sunset, usually a symbol of endings, now felt like an omen of solitude. Eamon's shadow stretched long and forlorn across the cobblestones, a dark echo of the hope that had once stood here.
Eamon walked the stone streets of the wealthy district of Athia, hoping to clear his head. The moon was out now casting a silver glow over the grandiose homes, their tall windows dark and lifeless. The faint scent of jasmine from well-tended gardens mingled with the crisp night air, creating an almost serene atmosphere that belied the tension gnawing at his mind.46Please respect copyright.PENANAbUUKgJbqWe
46Please respect copyright.PENANA0OzrDPQoQz
Each footfall echoed softly against the cobblestones, a rhythmic reminder of the solitude surrounding him. The opulence of the district was evident in the intricate ironwork of the gates and the marble facades of the mansions, yet tonight it felt cold and unwelcoming. Eamon’s thoughts swirled with the weight of recent events, the shadows playing tricks on his weary mind. Eamon's senses were also attuned to the faint whispers of magic lingering in the air, he couldn't help but feel a subtle shift in the city's energy. The cobblestones beneath his feet seemed to hum with a latent power, unseen but palpable, like threads of enchantment woven into the very fabric of reality. Back at his family's estate, he had been immersed in the world of magic by his parents, witnessing the intricate rituals and spells that once brought comfort to those in need.
46Please respect copyright.PENANAPjgyx2a6iz
Now, however, with the ominous emergence of the Maddening Blight, the once-revered art of magic had taken on a menacing edge. Passing through the bustling marketplace, Eamon couldn't ignore the unease that crept into his core. The whispers of the Blight lingered in the air, its ominous presence casting a shadow over every corner of the city.46Please respect copyright.PENANAFIYKSmlLsi
46Please respect copyright.PENANA5toQohaBPt
Eamon's steps echoed through the empty, affluent streets of Athia, each footfall a reminder of the oppressive silence surrounding him. His cloak was a feeble barrier against the night's chill, but it was the dread gnawing at his soul that truly made him shiver. The weight of his thoughts felt like an anchor, dragging him deeper into a sea of melancholy.46Please respect copyright.PENANAQVjqV5XIIz
46Please respect copyright.PENANAw58P7NVrrz
As he walked, memories of the Maddening Blight's devastation surfaced unbidden. The marketplace, once a vibrant hub of life, now teemed with hollow-eyed faces and trembling hands. Each encounter was a stark reminder of the curse's reach, and the peril that magic had become. The sight of a young girl, her gaze distant and haunted, sent a pang of sorrow through him. He quickened his pace, as if he could outrun the images imprinted on his mind.46Please respect copyright.PENANALNoj2V9xJw
46Please respect copyright.PENANASPxfG7kMiQ
The further he ventured into the night, the heavier the darkness seemed to press upon him. It was not just the absence of light, but the palpable sense of foreboding that seeped into his very bones. Every shadow seemed to whisper his name, echoing the fears he could not voice. His breath hitched, each inhale a struggle against the suffocating dread.46Please respect copyright.PENANAzrCQg0LK2y
46Please respect copyright.PENANAztKAKsLo3z
In this world of uncertainty, where even the simplest spell could unleash unimaginable horrors, Eamon felt the crushing weight of his helplessness. The knowledge of magic's dangers wrapped around him like a leaden shroud, threatening to smother any glimmer of hope. He pulled his cloak tighter, not for warmth, but in a futile attempt to shield himself from the relentless tide of despair that threatened to overwhelm him.
A sharp crack shattered the stillness, jolting Eamon out of his reverie. He spun around, eyes straining to pierce the shifting shadows that seemed to dance just out of reach. His heart hammered in his chest, and he pulled his cloak tighter, as if its thin fabric could shield him from the creeping dread. The hairs on the back of his neck stood on end, instinct urging him to flee. He quickened his pace, his footsteps echoing eerily through the deserted streets.46Please respect copyright.PENANAxjbRG4JqgI
46Please respect copyright.PENANAF5Uw1Q7UXg
Iron-strong hands freezing to the touch clamped down on his shoulders, yanking him backward. Eamon gasped, but before he could cry out, a rough cloth was pressed over his mouth and nose. The acrid scent of some unknown chemical filled Eamon's nostrils, a fire in his lungs. He thrashed wildly, his elbow jabbing back and striking something solid, eliciting a grunt of pain from his unseen assailant.46Please respect copyright.PENANA8LNDnewNeW
46Please respect copyright.PENANAMWhaOstCOZ
More hands grabbed at him, vice-like grips pinning his arms to his sides and lifting his feet off the ground. Panic surged through him, adrenaline lending a fleeting burst of strength as he kicked out desperately. His boot connected with a knee, and he heard a muffled curse, but the grip on him only tightened, unyielding.46Please respect copyright.PENANA5WUYfrPlPC
46Please respect copyright.PENANADoaD2xspPv
His vision began to blur, the world around him spinning in dizzying circles. He tried to call for help, but his voice was a strangled whisper against the suffocating cloth. The edges of his sight darkened, tunneling inwards as his limbs grew heavy, leaden, and unresponsive. He felt himself being dragged backwards, his heels scraping against the rough cobblestones.46Please respect copyright.PENANAbMdq3WsqNq
46Please respect copyright.PENANAt6cQd2yJCe
The last thing Eamon saw before darkness claimed him was the ground rushing up to meet him, the cold, indifferent stones seeming to mock his helplessness. The murmur of his captors' voices, low and urgent, faded into an indistinct hum. Triumph and urgency laced their tones, but their words were lost to him as he slipped into unconsciousness.46Please respect copyright.PENANA1lSx5oschJ
46Please respect copyright.PENANAwHkS4udEWd
Eamon's last conscious thought was a flicker of fear, a desperate question of what awaited him beyond the encroaching darkness. The night, silent and unfeeling, swallowed him whole.46Please respect copyright.PENANAoJk33k3s4C
Upon regaining awareness, Eamon discovered himself confined in a dimly illuminated chamber. The musty odor of mildew lingered in the air, while a solitary lantern flickered, casting erratic shadows upon the coarse stone walls. Bound and disoriented, his vision struggled to sharpen. Eamon attempted to shift his hands, encountering the searing, constricting sensation of rope encircling his wrists. Before him, bathed in the lantern's unsteady glow, stood his captor: an Elfrk distinguished by sharp, angular features, elongated pointed ears, and a complexion of deep brown hue.46Please respect copyright.PENANAuBYqtidS9U
"You're awake," the Elfrk said, his voice a soft, steady stream, flowing gracefully like a gentle breeze through autumn leaves. "I'm Lysander."46Please respect copyright.PENANAjlYt59x8YW
46Please respect copyright.PENANAwTJDViTInq
"Why am I here?" Eamon's voice quivered with fear.46Please respect copyright.PENANAXT4nQtarnq
46Please respect copyright.PENANA9iySJdAsmW
"We need your help," Lysander replied, his gaze piercing. "The villagers believe you possess the cure for my daughter's Blight."46Please respect copyright.PENANAatd0qlmWhF
46Please respect copyright.PENANAsQtjW6R26u
"I can't," Eamon protested, his voice barely above a whisper. "I have no magic. The sickness—"46Please respect copyright.PENANA4wrDE1AHxG
46Please respect copyright.PENANAcXRrEItn24
A shadow crossed Lysander's face, his features contorting with anger. "Then you'll fetch a handsome ransom. Your parents will pay dearly to reclaim you."46Please respect copyright.PENANA4Qg2CWc2Ho
46Please respect copyright.PENANA5ngDCdVEzl
Eamon's heart hammered in his chest as he realized the depth of Lysander's desperation. As the Elfrk man started his way out of the cell, he took a dagger from his side slicing his hand. As it started to bleed profusely, hid laugh ecoed off the walls a nightmare in the flesh. Eamon watched helplessly as Lysander reached the heavy iron door, he holstered his dagger his hand gripping the rusted latch before he pulled it shut with a resounding clang. The click of the lock echoed through the chamber. With a final, disdainful glance, Lysander turned on his heel and strode out of the room, licking the blood off of his hand as he disappeared from sight.
Desperation clawed at Eamon's psyche as he scrutinized the confines of his prison, each detail a cruel reminder of his captivity. The dim light cast distorted shadows, dancing tauntingly on the rough-hewn walls. His pulse thundered in his ears, a relentless drumbeat of fear.
46Please respect copyright.PENANAg8TPqN8jhu
His eyes caught a glimmer of hope—a stone, jutting slightly from the base of the wall. With a surge of adrenaline, he lunged forward, his bound hands stretching desperately toward the elusive chance for freedom. Fingers strained against the coarse surface, grasping for purchase, but the stone remained steadfast, a silent witness to his struggle.46Please respect copyright.PENANAOooB7GaPsR
46Please respect copyright.PENANAMFYxnEX53e
Every failed attempt echoed with the hollow laughter of defeat, mocking his resolve. Sweat beaded on his brow, mixing with the chill of the damp air. Each fruitless tug at the stubborn stone served as a painful reminder of his powerlessness, driving home the harsh reality of his situation.
Frustration welled up inside him as he tried to think of another way out. With trembling fingers, he examined the iron bars of the cell window, hoping for a weakness he could exploit. But they held fast, mocking his efforts to break free.46Please respect copyright.PENANA8GP6mjEjsj
46Please respect copyright.PENANA0foe0942Dy
Defeated, Eamon sank to the cold, damp floor, his mind racing with fear and uncertainty.
Eamon almost jumped out of his skin when he heard a female voice. "My name is Amara," she whispered through the iron bars, her voice barely audible above the faint hum of the steam lantern. "I know you can't help me. My parents... they're going to sell me into slavery. They think I'm going to die anyway. We need to get out of here."
Amara leaned against the cold, iron bars, her youthful features illuminated by the flickering light of the lantern. Strands of chestnut hair cascaded tucked behind her pointed ears, framing her delicate face. Her eyes, pools of stormy gray, held a mixture of fear and determination as she spoke in hushed tones. Despite the pallor of her skin, there was a resilience in her stance, a defiance that belied her tender years.
Eamon’s eyes widened with surprise, but a flicker of hope ignited within him at her words. “But how? The door’s locked,” he whispered back, his voice tinged with desperation.46Please respect copyright.PENANAxVZ4hRhcnM
46Please respect copyright.PENANAN0Mm2l8rfO
With a determined glint in her stormy gray eyes, Amara reached into the folds of her cloak, producing a small, tarnished key. “Not anymore,” she replied, her fingers deftly working the lock until it clicked open.46Please respect copyright.PENANAk0VASGtlTA
46Please respect copyright.PENANA6lHCqRYFHR
Eamon stared at her in astonishment, disbelief mingling with gratitude. “Thank you,” he murmured.
As Eamon emerged from the suffocating confines of the prison, the chill of the night air bit at his skin, a stark contrast to the musty warmth he'd grown accustomed to. Amara stood by, her figure illuminated by the pale moonlight, strands of her chestnut hair catching and reflecting its ethereal glow.
Her eyes darted nervously, scanning the dilapidated buildings of the impoverished town. Ramshackle structures leaned precariously, their weathered facades bearing the scars of neglect and decay. Faint lights flickered through cracked windows, casting eerie shadows that danced across crumbling walls. The muddy streets were littered with debris, a testament to the poverty that gripped the community. As she surveyed the desolate scene, a sense of despair hung heavy in the air, suffocating any hope of prosperity that might have once thrived within these forsaken streets.46Please respect copyright.PENANA7bcE9lTcXb
46Please respect copyright.PENANA8EIrwYHAsJ
Before they could exchange a word, a cacophony of deranged laughter shattered the tranquility, echoing through the air. Eamon's heart lurched in his chest as he turned to see figures emerging from the darkness, their forms twisted by madness, veins pulsing with an eerie blue light—a silent testament to the corrupting influence of magic.46Please respect copyright.PENANAZaGkBZ3VNl
46Please respect copyright.PENANAzayvFEE6gR
"Quickly, this way!" Amara's voice cut through the night, urgent and commanding, as she seized Eamon's hand and darted towards the looming silhouette of the nearby forest.46Please respect copyright.PENANA0uJlXZKsEf
46Please respect copyright.PENANAwNE3AXPqre
Eamon stumbled along in her wake, the undergrowth clawing at his clothes rippening the once vauble faberic, thorns leaving angry welts on his exposed skin. Each labored breath burned in his lungs, the pounding of his heart drowning out the chorus of their pursuers. The moon cast long, ominous shadows across their path, a haunting reminder of the danger that lurked behind them.46Please respect copyright.PENANA5upBnEvbsZ
46Please respect copyright.PENANAzjL8P2Bj7U
As they pressed forward into the forest's thick undergrowth, the looming shadows of ancient trees reached out like gnarled fingers, shrouding them in an oppressive darkness. The air grew heavy with the scent of damp earth and decaying leaves, each step deeper into the wilderness amplifying the sense of isolation and foreboding.46Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZIWddW0NV
46Please respect copyright.PENANAHR5ec7vST4
Eamon's heart pounded in his chest, the rhythm of his pulse echoing in the silence of the forest. He could feel the weight of their situation bearing down on him, a suffocating pressure that threatened to overwhelm his senses. With every stride, he left behind the familiarity of the world he once knew, plunging headlong into the unknown depths of the wilderness.46Please respect copyright.PENANADtZJfO8vXO
46Please respect copyright.PENANA7rUX32epqC
Beside him, Amara moved with a quiet determination, her gaze flitting nervously between the tangled maze of trees and underbrush. Despite the encroaching darkness, a defiant spark gleamed in her eyes, a stubborn resolve unyielding to the shadows' advance.46Please respect copyright.PENANAtwAA9MqSyb
46Please respect copyright.PENANAwby1A5i1v6
As the oppressive night closed in around them, the forest betrayed its ominous secret. The unmistakable crunch of leaves beneath heavy footfalls reverberated through the air, a chilling prelude to impending danger. Alongside this sinister sound, a guttural snarl ripped through the silence, freezing Eamon and Amara in their tracks.46Please respect copyright.PENANAenCvExgHwJ
46Please respect copyright.PENANAVImTMxwZ8u
Before they could muster a response, a pair of glowing eyes materialized from the darkness, fixating hungrily on their trembling forms. With a primal roar, the monstrous creature surged forward, breaking through the veil of the forest's shadows with relentless hunger. Its intentions were clear: they were the prey, and it was the predator. 46Please respect copyright.PENANA7qMq686nln
