Pegwalsge’s slow march across the decayed earth began to resemble the color of the sky lifeless, dull, and threatening. Yuhen was sealing his open wounds with ice. But the ice was no longer a defense merely a way to buy time. With each blow it unraveled, with every flash it vanished.

Yuhen glanced toward his men. Some still resisted, but it was no different than warmth born within a fresh grave.

Palir was on his knees, trembling hands clutching his head. Blood dripping from his eyes began to stain the soil a deep red. In his mind, a storm of darkness shredded every thought but deep within, a small spark still fought for life.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6vHEeI2bs
He tried to open his eyes, but everything was blurry. Colors were drained, the world suffocating. Narth’s silent laughter echoed in his mind, prowling through his soul, subjecting him to a nightmare worse than death.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡct0FUFblxQ
Palir clenched his teeth. The blood boiling in his veins tried to become raw Xhu. Every cell screamed as if torn apart by invisible blades. Then, a scream erupted in his mind his own. But the scream became a rebellion at the edge of ruin.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZ2cmSs2AA
Amidst the mental chaos, Palir gathered his sharpened Xhu with all his might. Its cold gleam disrupted Narth’s shadowy consciousness slightly, but it still clung to the most vulnerable corners of his psyche.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfa6Q6jbiO
Palir struggled to stand. His knees buckled. The blood drying on his cheeks burned his skin. Channeling that pain into rage, he focused his Xhu into his sword.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpnsJPXkhL
He raised his bloodied eyes and gazed into the heart of darkness.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAWDx1gcrN
Narth’s shapeless face betrayed his pleasure.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAC3LWH7NPp
Palir, trembling in pain forged by his own blood, stepped forward. His sharpened Xhu gleamed enough to slice through the gloom. As he moved to strike, the chains of his mental torment shattered with a violent clatter Narth, impressed by Palir’s resistance, withdrew his Norzsa Zenxhu and drew his sword.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkGP1CogWF
Palir took a few shaky steps, his fingers tightening around the hilt. He inhaled sharply, the air slicing into his lungs. Blood blurred his sight. Narth stood before him, a silhouette of death, calm and waiting.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLLxXM0RZx
Raising his sword slowly, savoring the moment, Narth seemed to feed on Palir’s fear and pain.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDxZv8U7Zo
Palir roared and leapt forward, his Xhu shattering the ground beneath him. Their swords clashed with a scream of steel. Narth moved with quiet precision, taking delight in harming his prey. Palir’s strikes grew desperate, more erratic.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUrbPMQbwY
Every blow was parried with cold ease. Narth was wearing him down. Each hit didn't just wound the body it tore at the soul. Palir’s thoughts blurred. Each cut flayed skin and screamed agony. Blood poured in hot rivers, and pain fused with some primal ecstasy and horror.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2uIEklKSK
Then, with a savage swing, Narth broke Palir’s defense. His blade sliced a deep line across Palir’s chest. The ground caught him, blood soaking him instantly. He struggled to rise, shaking, broken.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikD2iGwlVE
“We’ve only just begun,” Narth said, his demonic grin visible.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMRpU9dsil
Palir, bloodied hands trembling, attacked again. He slashed blindly, but Narth knocked the blade aside and slammed the hilt of his own sword into Palir’s face. The crack of breaking bone echoed through his scream.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGDzj83uqh
Palir collapsed. His vision failed. Madness crept in. Narth’s cold steel pressed to his neck and fear surged.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQWzX9DtkM
“I wish I could see you squirm,” Narth whispered, grinning.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCs84c1OdE
Palir tried to speak, but words died in his throat. Narth drew his sword back and plunged it into Palir’s arm. The scream tore through the night, blood splashing violently to the ground.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxss2vgSN2p
“No... enough...” Palir begged, barely conscious.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCRBHwMvSl
“Not yet,” Narth replied coldly.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbD3Gh2wa4
When Yuhen turned toward the writhing Shuan, Karra was calmly, mercilessly pressing her foot into his chest. Shuan’s mental defenses shattered; reality melted for him. Karra slowly raised her mace, its head gleaming menacingly.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SK7hLuh80
Shuan tried to scream, but the sound caught in his throat. The mace struck his right wrist shattered, blood geysering skyward. Screams of agony echoed.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnTt2FYpFZ
Karra’s face showed no emotion. Only cold, absolute resolve. She struck again. Bones in Shuan’s other arm splintered. Blood pooled around him. Reality collapsed under the weight of Karra’s Rasa Zenxhu.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3xtXuyXRA
While Shuan writhed, Karra gently spun her maces and leaned closer.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzwBMfP97j
“Your pain pleases me,” she whispered, ice-calm and haunting. “And I want to savor it.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu3XdA8nZl
She pressed her foot into his wounds, amplifying his torment. Shuan’s screams echoed into the void. She struck his legs next. He slipped beyond reality, teetering on madness.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oyfyCGtVE
Looking into his fading eyes, Karra whispered, “You will dissolve slowly in agony.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2lpIU7cmr
She stood and left Shuan broken, his blood pooling as the dark swallowed his cries.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJknctx4xn
Seeing Shuan’s state, Yuhen screamed in rage, hurling curses at Karra as he rushed to him. “You son of a bitch, I’ll kill you!”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKohQGEut5k
But his reckless charge left him exposed. Pegwalsge seized the chance striking with terrible force. In that brief distraction, Pegwalsge’s black blade tore deep into Yuhen’s back.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJA4ZPQDvV
Yuhen collapsed, screaming, blood pouring from his wound.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6jrfQK0dM
“I’ll kill you first,” Pegwalsge murmured, his voice cold, threatening.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPalulVQv5
At that moment, Vorun’s chains lashed out like lightning, binding Yuhen in place. He struggled, then looked around. His five men lay bloody and unconscious.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBE7wtbw1G
Desperation turned his fury to curses.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GJoIXuIlL
Pegwalsge stood over him, calm.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPB8a6Lt2MJ
“If you’ve nothing else to say...” he said, coating his blade in black flame.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUGVspbW9l
Just as he raised it to sever Yuhen’s head Creasya and his troops arrived. With a powerful blow, Creasya drove Pegwalsge back.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqsMpYssZu
Yuhen was saved at the very last moment.
