Cave air is as thick as huddling against Peacock’s feathers. The damp stone walls catering to their stiff shadows while only the flickering campfire stands alive. One looks like a pebble sprite while two are Hemreans, one is a giantess and the last is a peacock. All round and together around the warmth. Only the Hemreans feel as if their eyes will split to left and right.

Until the lady spits out as much saliva as she can to the boy, “Ye’ve been following me for pay? What, did a King sent ye? Why risk ye life?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWpfkcgVSi
“We didn’t mean to follow you” Amerie fiddles her fingers, “We need another way to get into Módbeorg.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKQXjPjUe4
Perking the pebble spirit to look at Amerie, “Why?” It rumbles,
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1TBmWdHV5
Isaac and Peacock both look at Amerie staring into the flame, speaking low like the far echoes of trickling. “To apologize”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KevBYpikS
“And to whom? There is nothing in that mountain.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsTSfxrFfi
“No, there are Nautrens there. That’s where they live.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lUjejxx9p
Amerie’s words taking the lady by surprise, spitting “What are ye talking about. Nautrens? Ye among the delusional those calling themselves druids?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpEvO8nIlv
“He’s one. Right?” Gesturing to the pebble spirit and he nods, “My name is Amerie, Amerie Noir. And my kingdom has gravely committed a sin among the great Nautrens. Though, I don’t know for man how long.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mOJiLfvID
“Introducing minself is unnecessary.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqmMXKIDiH
But the pebble spirit pokes her otherwise, “Tell”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI12o5TPpiM
“But, they are looters! They must be”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeMhe2tgm3
“We are not going there to loot” Isaac says, “My name is Isaac, and the peacock is Peacock. And we will apologize.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspCqeJudF1
The pebble spirit pokes her again and the lady, with a sweat, displeasingly introduces herself, “Olwan, just Olwan”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxqLyCfeIT
“Just?” tones the Peacock,
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaaFHbGlpg
“Great to meet you, Olwan” the boy offering out his hand and Olwan hesitantly shakes them.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEVDzwFnDU
Pebble spirit nods, turning to Amerie, “Mayfairy, O’ Mayfairy. Present ye have come, Princess Amerie. Pleasure that I meet you before my siblings and Great Nautriarchs.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM6iubx70k
“Likewise. But I’ve already met some during the Mægfæge.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq18LN8jF9s
“Do you know her Pebe?” Olwan asks, licking her own lips wet and raising her hands towards the flame
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yIrZNAmf1
“Great Mayfairy” Pebe says slow and deep, “Mayfairy of Past. Siblings whom ye met. Must have already rumored at the surface.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARFtmyx3Bu
“Yes, but I didn’t expect for undead shamblers all over the border”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaHSJi3FuG
“Right, it started a week ago after the heavy rains. None knew why but everything thinks it is enemies’ spell, traitors of Cyndoryll trying to hurt its heart. And they do nothing. I alone cannot fight them, I asked for help, yet they think that it is best for the undead to go here in Módbeorg” Such emotion that she leaves the others silent.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLnv01daLL
Only Pebe comments, “Life oozing from Nautriarch’s death. Expected. But now, too much.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4hbKRzo3y
“There will always be the undead whenever a high Nautren dies. Just not at this scale. Min heard of a necromancer at Kinguin. Ye three came from ther right? Ever heard of that necro?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbCzhE5d0S
The three did not take much effort to think as they remember what happened during the red mist. When the undead charged towards them. And how High Princess Rumen blatantly exposed herself, saying that everything was just an experiment when thousands died. Isaac answers, “A High Princess that you do not want to go near with.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWYAgucUnS
“A High Princess?” Cover her lips in shock, “What of Kinguin Captial then? Did it got overrun?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNubfl0P63Y
“I do not think so…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiipec0HOR
“We do not know what she did with them after the messed-up festival” Peacock says, “She probably just let them go and the undead went here.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7YJniEnE9
“This is grave…a high princess from Kinguin…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jeNXjQuLq
“This Festival” Pebe asks, “The Mægfæge?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVyoxYMEMg
Amerie nods deeply, “It was nobody’s fault. They simply misunderstood.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYghNQlFp4
“Ah…grave still. Alongadol will not be pleased.’
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeMNZI0IUc
“But Kinguin is innocent, a victim. They really didn’t know and hence why, I must forgive for all of them. Or else the plain spirits will stomp Kinguin flat.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1iMXLEW6Z
Pebe shakes his head, “Would be…Princess Noir is here for all of them…and Kinguin’s great Plateaus and walls by great king can hold the people.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTt9h9uqKx3
“Need help getting in? Ic knows a way” Olwan suggests sharply,
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOCaxrpful
“You said that a Nautriarch is dead” inquires the boy, “What happened?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyK7lYnGTYm
“Nay, do not know. Just the signs of undead around the borders mean someone full of life died. And those Nautrens who assume a mortal form are full of them.” She stands, asking Pebe to take down a wall over to their right, “Come on, we best hurry if ye want to save your kingdom.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1oQVMCXc4
Pebe draws in the air with his fingers and the wall of pebbles collapse. Revealing and surprising two roaches on two legs. “Tssk tskk tskkk /// sskk skkk sk”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5N7050C7a
They stare at each other before running away and Olwan realizing who those roaches are. “Nautriarch pets, after them or they will tell!”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZN80Z2YePz
“But isn’t that better?” Amerie asks
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2Abp1yTKi
But Olwan chases after them, “Their telling is worse enough for a Bad Nautren to be punished at their undead cages.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA86sAeFX4y
Pebe shudders at the thought, “Cage…surrounded by death…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxS1OeHTfh
And Amerie, Isaac and Peacock quickly gives chase to the two spying roaches. Leading them up a root infested slope and out to a mountain side, overlooking the blue trees below and a panning view of West coast all the way to Kinguin’s plateaus to the far south east.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1mfSdtyD1
“See those webs over there?” She points at the pink webs below, “We jump down, and need not worry. They are Jumping spider’s webs.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yt74Vyisu
“Wait—why would we jump to a spider’s web!?” Peacock asks too late as Olwen jumps down, arms stretched to the side and capture the gliding roaches. Then falls to the cobweb, bouncing off it softly while keeping her prisoners tight. She looks up and sees Amerie, followed by Isaac and Peacock who rather glides down. Everyone checks on each other, all good. Until a man with large crescent ears comes up and bellows, “Intruders!”
