Kar pushed harder on Parcival's throat. The threads came out faster as the staff flashed.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAdscIoqVDr9
"Don't bother me." He half-turned, opening his free fist in Han's face, a red intricate rune of light floated above his palm.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAFYBVNwbZnQ
"Back off."
692Please respect copyright.PENANA7bWoqpLAai
Han's eyes pinched tight and his mouth curled back bearing his little fangs, he hissed while stepping back. His spectacles slid down resting on his muzzle.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAi6Rxsa9Kwi
Her mind was foggy. It was hard to focus. Everyone was doubled and blurry. She rubbed her eyes, it helped a little.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA24mxLnRejZ
Han ran behind one of the larger containers hacking at a large cable that curved around alongside it. The thick pink liquid gushed out spilling onto the floor.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAmLVi5JByyi
"Stop doing that, you overgrown pin cushion!"
692Please respect copyright.PENANAsKy7Qr02Hn
Kar twisted the base of his staff, it hummed drawing the threads out faster.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAPPZvCP1cIy
"Aetae, spirit of the wind I invoke of you grant your aid once more."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAp5sB8ltoLv
Aetae was slow to come his shadowed form faded. What was wrong?
692Please respect copyright.PENANAvkOTT9q2TL
"The soul requiem of the land begins."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAVb8MsH7uhl
His voice as soft as an owl in flight, his shadowy eyes held a pain.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAZcWwLDxWMX
"What is it?"
692Please respect copyright.PENANAPWtSTRFsKu
He closed his eyes tight wrapping cold hands over hers.
692Please respect copyright.PENANALiQdXWo6EZ
"Trust no one."
692Please respect copyright.PENANArJlkXhneOG
He granted speed again, it was lighter then ever before it would wear off soon. Unnamed had said that before, had he corrupted Aetae?
692Please respect copyright.PENANAqQBBNpPekC
Aetae spiraled through the floor as if pulled on. His soft cry echoed in her ears. Her heart ached. This was wrong, all wrong.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAVYESJsHd7w
The moans from Parcival grabbed her attention.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAkhPgCm8LDm
She streaked on the floor pulling with her hands yanking on Kars arm.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAQSGNNTnTVA
"Imprudent Elf, why won't you just give up?"
692Please respect copyright.PENANAE7BsIYfJdG
He lifted his arm up, and her with it.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAUCLwA1VYGB
"Let them go." Come on, Han run.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAvTRHnHPYjo
Han was on the container across the room hacking away at it's cable.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA3qRbCiYt0r
The speed spell faded and left. Don't wear off now, come back.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAbMuHiYdqgo
Kar shook her off. He went over to a support beam and smashed her chest first into it. He repeated this until she slid off his arm and dropped to the floor. The pink glop pooled under her stomach.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAx1cZ7Jip3z
He bent down and pulled her head up. "Tell them to leave, and make them not want to come back. Do this and they may go."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAxIi74igEsS
Han crept around the containers, backed away from both of them. His eyes were wide and his fur slick against his body, like a bear cub that was dunked in a river. He crept low, avoiding eye contact.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAaFGd5CcFIZ
Parcival slid down the wall his skin gray as dusty steel. His eyes closed, and his breathing slowed. Shouldn't do it, but what choice is there? Can't let this human die. No, correction friend. Her throat tightened and became sore.
692Please respect copyright.PENANALfAzTTVNJW
"Well?"
692Please respect copyright.PENANAtJ8VDBp7o8
"Let me help him first."
692Please respect copyright.PENANA3p5mU9a4Zc
"Do it quickly."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAabeD1esyOf
Kar went over to Han who was wedged on the far side of a container. Kar swore at him every time he dodged away.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA5OowwVdYgx
"Get out!"
692Please respect copyright.PENANAX1lUgPFhxy
Everything below the hips was numb as she crawled over to Parcival.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAj3iaac5VA6
"Spirits take from mine and mend of his. I will pay the cost." It came out as a harsh croak.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAHlae2njmAp
She placed her hands on his chest. Stay with me.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAvl6UXH2FMk
Spirits of darkness and light came through the floor. In most cases they refused to be together in one place, as each opposed the other. For this, they would. A taste of life was the only coin that mattered to them, considering how tired they looked they needed it. Aetae wasn't with them.
692Please respect copyright.PENANALXdbGJFlfj
She pointed at Parcival. They swarmed over him joining hands while leaning over his mouth. They breathed out a wispy golden breath that twisted into a stream into his.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA5S3cCbpaaH
They came over to her, holding out her hand, they both touched it. The dark one's touch was like those hidden nightmares that slipped away on waking, ancient and chill. It wasn't evil, more sad then anything. It never really left; became a part of you.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAA1k7WsJAUR
A part of her left with, as did much of what was left of her energy. The light one came over and did the same. The payment while steep could be afforded. Two years for each spirit wasn't as bad as what some wanted. They flew through a wall and vanished.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAbKVsLMbiH4
His breathing was deepening and his skin returned to a healthy color. They were quick that couldn't have been more then a minute.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAIIVSstfTk1
"There's a mirror, only you hold. While broken its mending. Friend." She whispered in his ear.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAkO8ZmeAmlY
"Now, get up."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAos3lsVTP9m
Parcival pushed upright and frowned. "What did you do?"
692Please respect copyright.PENANADZeAv4So6E
"Nothing for you to worry about." Kar was still busy with Han.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAzpKSm2KeNQ
"You have to get out of here. Go." Her arms wobbled, it was hard staying upright.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA0eaLjBSvd3
A flurry of soft padding of feet from behind. Han came over, breathing hard. His eyes wide.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAXmNtAGoo0F
"I have shown restraint, more then you deserve. She is where she needs to be. Leave."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAofF1DrPmJr
She twisted around, Kar stood there.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAkEIW1NQXNb
Parcival shot up, lost his balance and crashed down. "I'm not much use right now."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAolr3NsxCPg
"Crawl out. I don't care how you go. Do it soon, before I decide to drain you both of your life force."
692Please respect copyright.PENANA9WxMy8uerd
"Han, get out of here and take Parcival with you."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAWV4pm3U4kj
"Are you insane? I can't morally leave you with him!" His tail twitched.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA6Te5RTZ86P
He vanished and stood next to Parcival, his staff pointed at the doorway.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA5aD4iL77E8
Han looked at her, his ears and whiskers drooped. "We'll get help."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAbRsma2IxBv
"No, don't come back."
692Please respect copyright.PENANABAq3NPM2Va
"You don't mean that." His eyes teared up.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAo0FdyNcORq
"I do, I told that silly human to leave me alone. You too. Take him and get away from me. I can take care of myself."
692Please respect copyright.PENANA2NVpSsx5IL
The words hurt and it was hard to look at him.
692Please respect copyright.PENANALjTTuxPw0z
He scampered over to Parcival, held up his arm over his shoulder, and dragged him out the door.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAoz8IHHjS8H
Hope they make it out. Goodbye. Her eyes stung and watered she rubbed them. She sniffed and wiped her nose on a hand.
692Please respect copyright.PENANALpMSV1HOu8
Footsteps behind her, Kar came into view.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA6TtSQNVRWl
"I do regret doing this, but what you have in here ..."
692Please respect copyright.PENANA6kZrW6eDJF
He tapped her head, a pulse spread from his finger tips through her head.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAcRLkqurHm4
"Is needed. It won't be much longer now. I can't say if you'll survive."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAmIAbClmy0R
She didn't want to answer, but the fogginess increased. Her vision doubled again.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAha3A1F5m7T
"What ... did ..." Her head slumped to the side.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAycGItug8VS
He shifted and his forum wavered back to the youth.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA9JycW0fEos
"Much better. If you behave and don't fight it you'll feel much better. Try relaxing."
692Please respect copyright.PENANA8GXeUWyvlw
"I-don't understand."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAOFkB2KQA7s
"It's simple, I know you house the unnamed one. Only an adapt could survive its toxic spirit."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAvtNhcO7SX4
I don't know what you're talking about, she almost said. But, as she thought it a sudden headache stabbed the side of her head.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAhMG9njQwf7
"Gahhh." She ground her teeth and waited for it to pass.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAp6UbjuU2xv
"You'll find out soon enough just what that potion does, it's fully activated now."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAXDVFNoNo77
He smiled that hollow smile of his and tapped his own forehead.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAjPZwVKONcO
"Its effects will be clear soon enough."
692Please respect copyright.PENANADVCMqyYUdG
"This is awful. You're awful." She swallowed a lump in her throat.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAjzTo68SGYy
"There see honesty. Good girl."
692Please respect copyright.PENANARVwgmnAnc3
"Do not fight me, or in this case even think about it."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAdAMixIcNwl
"Undergods burn you!"
692Please respect copyright.PENANApaYvgvPOgs
"Such language." He did a series of complicated hand gestures.
692Please respect copyright.PENANADJyI61h8wf
"Faster."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAhzO3dFuL2R
What? She stood, the numbness left her legs.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAWDoe3OxuvY
"I don't feel like carrying you. Follow."
692Please respect copyright.PENANA9gOnogNpOf
She rubbed her eyes. Don't get tired now.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAtkkXqNHnPT
"We are moving to the Great Hall. Night is coming and it's going to become quite cold."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAm919NlTiop
He walked out of the room, she was compelled to follow behind, fighting it just shot pain up and down her spine.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAF3MFFhYmYw
She sucked in air through her teeth the fogginess increased it took over, she walked quickly catching up.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAX7IbsWewL2
Asleep or awake? She clamped her hands together. Awake, definitely awake.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAYQGfG4YOL4
"Tell me, did they cast any protection spell on you?"
692Please respect copyright.PENANAJD3bkQUToh
He walked faster down the hallway.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAjj97d4jE29
She tried to resist. This earned her another head pain.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA4KHqLHuqHT
"Y--e-s."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAqPDSEkQWHH
"The containers, the liquid was meant to pull Unnamed out by converting him to algae. It don't work as expected. The rest is far too technical to bother to explain it to you."
692Please respect copyright.PENANA0mNQRPnJPy
He turned a corner down into a dark candle lit narrow hallway. The lights flickered and cast shadows that moved about as if they were alive.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAXqygohagqX
The walls were decorated with elaborate paintings. A huge one that spanned from the ceiling to the floor was a woman. She had long blond hair that went down the length of her back. The detail was amazing, as if you reached out to touch it, then it would be as soft as it looked. Her eyes were a bright amber like wolfs eyes, and her lashes thick and long. The rest if her features were of equal beauty.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA6WkZNTJpwf
Kar stopped silent and watched her. She looked at him.
692Please respect copyright.PENANATCTMYzxI4k
"That was my wife of a distant past. You remind me of her. Both of you were obstinate and strong willed." His face hardened and what little softness was in his eyes vanished.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAvykqfk4iig
"You will have but no choice to listen."
692Please respect copyright.PENANArmrHyBcdhP
He stormed over to her.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAuvhGQ3FwGl
"You and your people will end this world. Do you have any clue, that what you carry within?" He shook his head.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAp9s6bZoJ6Z
She leaned back as much as possible. Acid rose in her throat burning.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA9xybzIsrc8
He passed under a large archway. Straight ahead was a large fireplace, tall enough a person could stand in it. The wooden Overmantle had carvings of knights with swords and spears drawn. On both ends of the mantle was a large winged griffin. Their wings were held up and curved upward.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAEDKFGKmrPt
He moved her over to a wooden high backed chair, this was a few feet from the fireplace. A small table on the left side, with another chair at the end.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAdxMgALcGiJ
He sat her down on the one on the right. He was in front of her, his breath smelled of something sweet.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA6Qny1IlwnL
"Vow to do as I say and not to escape, I tire of chasing after you, like a misbehaving pup."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAWEgwW0wUzj
She glared at him, and wished he would fall down below in flames to greet the dark gods. To be bound to him by a vow, no, no. Her mind went blank.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAM5JsDeMkZ1
"Say it."
692Please respect copyright.PENANATSPRf4rVSi
He put a hand on her right shoulder squeezing it, the pain was intense and seared the skin, wisps of smoke wafted through his fingers right on the still healing scratch.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAazvSSFSA8W
"I refuse."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAqKq6klYNqB
A vow can never be broken, doing so always incurred Olenus wrath. Have to fight this. She sat up straight and looked though him, not at him. Another jolt of pain singed through her again she ground her teeth. Every hair on her arms stood up. His nails grew longer and he dug them into the scratch widening it.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAzss4bIYEY6
She orbited her shoulder and leaned back, pushing on his chest with a hand.
692Please respect copyright.PENANASC3KQIKYjp
"Get off!"
692Please respect copyright.PENANAOxoxSyreEO
A Dusk rat came over to Kar.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAROCtSh6P1R
"Master the man things are still down stairs."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAUi0dER0MpB
"I don't have much to say, but that what I say you should weigh carefully. What do you think will happen if you continue to refuse?"
692Please respect copyright.PENANAG0LuudySBH
The fireplace caught her attention and she stared at it.
692Please respect copyright.PENANANGxxQnQ9xt
He moved close to her face next to an ear.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAPY4cq2Wstn
"Do it, or I'll bring your friends back and have them take the potion. What I will make them vow would be of a far-less pleasant nature. The human how long do you think he'll be able to hold out?"
692Please respect copyright.PENANAjrEmVwH8uW
He held up a finger.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAEuDXtYsn78
"I say a minute or less, he's so young ..."
692Please respect copyright.PENANA5nIlKOfcZZ
She hung her head, her eyebrows twitched as she fought back a snarl that pulled on her lips and face. It was true. Parcival was at least thirty years younger ...
692Please respect copyright.PENANADpE86eYjFX
"I vow ... to do as you say, and not to escape."
692Please respect copyright.PENANACRuAvf1b7Z
The clamp of the vow became physical, a small feather etched on the top of her hand, like a light scar long healed. A reminder from Olenus.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAwDBejxReT2
Her eyes burned they stung as she fought back the tears.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAur4AWRcb79
"One more thing. If the others return you will protect me at all costs or that what you drank will instantly kill you."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAre9MWobraI
He placed his other hand under her chin and squeezed it.
692Please respect copyright.PENANAKuukG7fpur
"I'm being kinder than you know. The others how much do you trust them?"
692Please respect copyright.PENANAjirzJoVlnh
"Far more than you."
692Please respect copyright.PENANAzLlQBhjtOG
She blinked rapidly and breathed in a few breaths. He didn't say I had to give direct answers.
692Please respect copyright.PENANA0bYa3xW6II
His eyebrow twitched. He squeezed again and pulled his hand away roughly. Kar went over to the fireplace and flicked his fingers. The logs in it sparked and soon a fire started.
