She pushed on his chest while turning him about. Then did the same to Han. "Go!"
924Please respect copyright.PENANA2dISmlwQcA
"I resent being-"
924Please respect copyright.PENANAPkS9GoDpFt
She growled at him. The Ancient side threatened to rip through her layers of self-control.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAHJ7d0RsF6u
She grabbed their arms, flipping them over twenty feet away, onto the soft grasses.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAujtOWMukzO
The spider-nab dropped out of the tree. She growled at it, unable to speak. Her body dripped with sweat. Daggers in hand.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAxo6uGHETXY
I like this side of you. It's amusing to me, Unnamed said.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAjLBGCH2uAG
Just shut up.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAqRY7A86QE8
It lunged at her aiming for her head.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAcutBn17lPd
She dodged it then sliced at its leg. The dagger bounced off, almost flying from her hand. How'd it ever get this far out?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAuBK1VxcdzR
Parcival and Han ran over.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAD6PCcCXxF9
Parcival spread his feet cupping his hands together. Spreading them an energy ball shot out from his palms. It hit the spider-nab on its thorax, it backed away squealing.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0qOhxNPeT
It hissed low raising on its back legs, she rolled to the side, but not before its fangs sank into her arm.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAFb1CFLkBvA
She screamed.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA3DU7bxmNo4
The poison already was paralyzing her arm, it burned. She went down to her knees, hands propped on the soil. The blood lust vanished.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAYuJQtcleoo
"Merryn!"
924Please respect copyright.PENANA86kFumdqXV
Han bounded over. Could only see his furry feet. He set his hands on her shoulders, a warming sensation spread down her back.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAN5iEMGyMt5
She coughed.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA5issoF5NIb
The spider-nab let out an airy squeal.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAUHMurQroqo
"Die already!" Parcival poked its abdomen with his saber.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAbD8dTxdi8W
The Adapts are wrong. Humans aren't week. She smiled a tiny bit.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAjEqcPelGyV
The warmth receded, as a burning starting at the base of her spine pushing it away.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAKr5EfiN8OQ
"It's not working! Parcival quit playing with it and kill it already."
924Please respect copyright.PENANA36gQ5VyaaJ
She sank down on her stomach. So tired now.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAN3v6nDiI70
Her heartbeat in forefront, slowed.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAqxBDenDlcD
Thud-thump.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAO2FShXHOEQ
The spider-nab fell down into its own body fluids, as its appendages were chopped off. Good.
924Please respect copyright.PENANABBC4m5lhdW
Idiot, should have taken the mountain route. Gods hex it all! If it ... get's free they'll die too.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAq8pVH14eZf
Thud-thump.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAbogsz0oZp0
One of them snorted. "You call that playing?"
924Please respect copyright.PENANAd28iX0NeFM
"Can you fix this?"
924Please respect copyright.PENANASMjZJrHGGn
"No, it's too hard. She needs a higher tier priest. I'm more of a scribe then a healer."
924Please respect copyright.PENANArQ6bg3Xka0
"Leave me."
924Please respect copyright.PENANAqXXcQXHDrA
"Did you say something?" One of them said, as to who, well, they both sounded metallic.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAA3FEZDKyad
"She's becoming cold. Hurry up!"
924Please respect copyright.PENANAWBdoa6YYG4
The burning poison spread into her torso, then to her toes.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAhSe0yVlWTT
Thud-thump.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAhpzqXs02Lp
"Need to hurry, her aura is fading."
924Please respect copyright.PENANAiGXEokIoFO
"She's delirious."
924Please respect copyright.PENANAZfjSGp3K7s
One picked her up. She shuttered as the touch sent a shock into the biten sholder.
924Please respect copyright.PENANADXfzeXJiWb
"Sorry."
924Please respect copyright.PENANAYZnid1jVbK
Some use I am, falling to poison of all things.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA1fZHSCxPtP
Curses and angry words filled her ears.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAYpQ3Jrua2U
Thoughts became heavy after this and her eyesight cloudy. She closed them.
924Please respect copyright.PENANATcARaB5DIh
You dare to die on me vessel? I'm not done! Answer me now!
924Please respect copyright.PENANAPRJ8jf4Y2s
"Merryn! Don't give way to sleep!"924Please respect copyright.PENANAmWihU2XpJK
924Please respect copyright.PENANAOyh3XJrdct
Shaking.
924Please respect copyright.PENANACToayiplIz
Thud.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAcYcQZjKV6X
The darkness gathered from all sides, each sense faded in turn until just the darkness remained.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAWvgutqT1KV
Silence.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAQHTACYqVav
####
924Please respect copyright.PENANADBh8xwPL8E
After an innumerable amount of time a thrilling floating sensation started. Slow at first, then it built up speed. Almost like thoughts in tangible form. An echo all around rippled and flowed backwards. This echo, a thought crystallized and took form.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAqfpmwRxDz6
Where am I?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAAeYnHB1mll
All looked different, had a gray tint to it like when at night. She stood behind Parcival.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAESArJbPJZl
He shook ... my body?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAKapDkve4BA
Then shouted while he carried her as he ran towards a dirt road off to the east.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAzgilAwR5zL
She was pulled out along with them, so stopped trying to walk.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAPD6tIW8Ckb
I hope they figure out my body needs to be sealed or Unnamed will come out. Probably kill them. Why?!
924Please respect copyright.PENANAnZt18cDPvT
There were threads of energy connected to the body. They were so transparent that they were easy to miss.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAHSG120ltB4
My fingers. She formed a fist and thrust her right spirit arm to the side.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAUGQGgCBl81
Nothing.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA7BSrMNreXj
Now what?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAiN03euzfX0
Energy. What was it mom said about this again?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAhj6LiprsS6
The two humans reached a town of some sort. Parcival talked with several people before running off with her body to the end of the town.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAbHXdP19wGY
Energy. Our souls are energy, with bodies of flesh to ... to what?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAo2UqsKWvqR
Memories were as slippery now as an interrupted dream.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAic7uXkVZRu
A kind looking priest came out of a small marble temple. These back towns couldn't afford grand ones, what with marble so hard to obtain.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAe9hxulmJgB
Hum. Some used treestone but it wasn't the same it didn't collect the light spirts energy as well.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAGFzzBpKqqK
What was I doing?
924Please respect copyright.PENANANycMGG2gv3
Part of her wanted to wander inside.
924Please respect copyright.PENANACFGymA0HmB
The priest looked straight at her.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAOqox8Efq6Z
Can he see me?
924Please respect copyright.PENANA5y0mm4sJut
He visibly paled. Then began talking rapidly to tall armored man and the puffy cathet man.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA3TcEHQJ9zU
They all went inside, pulling her with.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAuOwmO1rile
Ick. Her body was swollen and seeped blood from her mouth and nose. Yuck.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAW0CorzUBq1
She backed away as far as the thread would allow.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA4IPMbG4IKY
Her body twitched and jerked.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA3SfkzILPla
Oh. Right. That's what I've been doing.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA5qky36sj29
She jumped and flung both arms up.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAa7TaqJUYuE
Nothing. Again?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAYVBSFYxgXu
Okay... backing up further she tried once more. Her body jumped up with its arm in the air out of the man's hold onto the floor.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAFK0Nrbbtcv
All three yelled and backed off from the body.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAclxqO6wykK
Oops.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAUAQnuJEVRw
The priest brushed off robe, talked to the men. Parcival picked her up. The priest went to some other room, then came back carrying a cup filled with whitish fluid. Well, it was hard to tell as all was grayish.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAFu9fdIxhtQ
He dipped two fingers in it, then traced a curve on the floor. Repeating this until a large rune was completed this one had symbols of the sun throughout it along with overlapping leaf and water patterns. In the middle an empty circle.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAT9AQlAcoaA
He pointed to the armored man, who nodded and placed her body there on her back.
924Please respect copyright.PENANASK5iX0Guic
The priest talked some more, and they all sat down. The priest at the North end of the rune, Parcival west and Han East.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAnG8ppslCrm
It was difficult to watch, she squeezed her eyes shut.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAc67010wmLu
When she opened them her body's eyes opened as well.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAjXGDfZcG9j
All three sat around her cross-legged, they startled when the body's eyes opened.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAvvvAXattU5
The priest talked again and held his arms in front with palms up forward. The others the same. They all were all so grim. He began talking, no chanting as his lips moved in the same manner each time.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAaUonoFebqN
I'll just sit here, trying to move just upsets them.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAilzyV3h35K
She sat beside the armored man. He shivered.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA53CandGxu3
A bright beam extended out of the priests palms seconds later the same from the others.
924Please respect copyright.PENANApkAPBkgLSR
The beams intersected together over her torso.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAriHh868O4m
Her body writhed.
924Please respect copyright.PENANADSzyRSbDCP
Vines sprouted from under the body and whipped out at the three, coiling around them.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA0OoeHAWLw0
That can't be good. That's right, for good or ill, I'm that things vessel, must be looking for energy.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAkZyb0bIsdQ
But ... why care? A new pulling sensation different from the darker ancient one tugged.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAycL3N0afTr
A transparent branch pushed out of the flooring behind the priest. The pulling tugged at her. Voices filled the room. She stood and went over to it.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAdNBQWR3EnN
The branch grew, and more pushed out rising up until a tall tree stood. Its trunk glowed in the middle like a door. In it an outline if an old familiar Elvien man. His hand outstretched, mouthing the words:
924Please respect copyright.PENANAxhqhfpRBTV
"Come."
924Please respect copyright.PENANAmbYUmDSRuK
She held back just shy of taking his hand. Tears wet her cheeks. Grandfather. She shook her head slowly.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAdPE4x5CXXO
He nodded and turned back into the tree. It dipped back down, vanishing.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAG3MTRx7isX
Twisting around, the men struggled under the vines. She frowned. Why are they so important?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAz5oNo1BItF
Yes. The god. The weakened god. Was it trying to take their energy?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAhFlO3Mft1R
She pushed it aside and went over to her body. She gathered the threads in both hands and yanked on them. Come on!
924Please respect copyright.PENANAgvg9Ynvne2
The body twitched.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAXk5OkYml0A
Vines erupted out from her mouth, they wrapped her body covering it. While the other ones tightened. The vines glowed and Han slumped over.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAXWsDytVcLO
Must do something! But what?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAwcG4Ja8OdR
The priest jumped up, tensing up his arms.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAlXUxE6iba9
That is it!
924Please respect copyright.PENANAUrL1Dt8JuD
Sweat ran down his face as he tensed against the bonds.
924Please respect copyright.PENANABAx8ZOtzfx
She ran back as far as the threads would allow and jerked them. Her body went flying to the left and went down into the wall, cracking the marble. The vines snapped, ozing out sap.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAlfK9lNSCJB
Turning back, the priest was glowing. The vines split, showing a glowing white hand.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAGzB1yFXG1d
I see, he used a light spell to cut it. Clever. Light has heat as well.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAVbV1zynFLz
He freed the others, than walked over in front of her then pointed at the body.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAqqHT1HxNx9
It was in bad shape, not just ravaged by the poison, but wounds lanced its back. Some vines pieces still stuck out and mixed with the blood. A leg and arm were twisted in all the wrong angles.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA2AAKL1aSNT
I'm not going back in that!
924Please respect copyright.PENANAAmv3mvntnD
He looked at her and pointed to it.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAKtmtH5Baxv
What? What do you want? I can't go back in. Right?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAZYwzJOoBVJ
She shuttered.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA8JyYo0uvZJ
The man in armor came and gingerly picked up the body, placing it again on the rune.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA3VoOX2F7Rv
She moved forward following it some.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAVVK1YdmGXS
They talked again and started up the bright beam again. This time finishing and covering the body.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAl4IbUMKVmq
The thread shortened dragging her toward it.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAfEX6GVfbSj
No! I changed my mind! She clawed at the smooth marble unable to grip it.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAKRcz5pk69A
A foot off a spirit lay next to her body, its eyes had large bags under them and its cheeks were sunken in. He smiled, all canines long and sharp.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAtV0hnEjQkr
A final tug pulled her back in.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAdexbUBUo9V
The world flooded back, lights, sounds, color.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAyZrogo69hp
Pain.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAddxyORRG34
Everything is pain.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA3T2fz892fI
Her body twitched.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAlCFkeHqp8H
Han had his hands on her chest, they glowed green.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA1OxhmuMoLs
No, let me die!
924Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1kCMdSVDM
A touch.
924Please respect copyright.PENANALF46ccTWsG
The man ... Parcival. He held her.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA24Rkm9pkKH
"Stop scaring me like that," he said.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAmWLJ0i19iW
A croaking sound came from her was she tried to speak. She coughed and spewed out a mouthful of blood.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAzBifrsfWLs
He stiffened. "Get over here and heal her all ready!"
924Please respect copyright.PENANAiV8wANRo6p
"Of course," a gravely voice said. She turned her head a little. Ah, the priest.
924Please respect copyright.PENANACly1rzGPOh
Her body strained to bend during a spasm, her back cracked.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAfYncKiAx6P
"Yaaaa!"
924Please respect copyright.PENANADXzT58tkar
The wall. My back hit the wall.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA4CUGtOVjpi
Tears squeezed out, as all of the pain scorched through her. She clenched her jaw.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAjNoas5N9ba
"Don't let her move, she's still close to death. Keep her sill."
924Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8iYPaUnTl
Parcival's huge hand hovered over her face, then rested on the crown of her head the other pushed down on her stomach.
924Please respect copyright.PENANALEKCiLi112
"Stop moving," the priest said.
924Please respect copyright.PENANATRPEFArZnF
"Shhhh."
924Please respect copyright.PENANA7QO1NxrpqO
She huffed. It did hurt less being still. Or was that the healing spell?
924Please respect copyright.PENANAMpfFFRWOmx
Regardless a not so bad numbness seeped in. Her face relaxed, she unclenched her jaw.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAXrurHhNMWd
Hans face hovered over. "How do you feel now?"
924Please respect copyright.PENANAgNlpqIiYgA
"Numb."
924Please respect copyright.PENANAtm3gVQZ11X
He managed to pale under the fur. He looked at the priest who shook his head.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAkQpqnKb78W
"Go grab the long flat board in the other room."
924Please respect copyright.PENANAeYnEQKWRAq
Han came back a while later, holding it. They held her neck and back with their hands, then slid her on it.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAMI2WlXj1Cc
It pinched. But do-able.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAhsDtXeKXgI
They took her to a room with a small bed and lifted her on it.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAyNl1YPz7Wj
"Go now, I'll tend to her. Get some rest," the priest said.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA4RQ672LGkF
Later they left, he closed the door, then came back.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAXT7JZ75FBO
"What to do with you?" He brought a thin object from under the left side if his robe.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAiTBpyoIEL6
Its handle that showed shone in the candle light.
924Please respect copyright.PENANAyXX9q3AECN
She flinched and was rewarded with a bolt of pain that sucked away her breath.
924Please respect copyright.PENANA949WlC9Cn7
"If I heal you that thing lives. If I let you die it will be free. Correct?"
924Please respect copyright.PENANAzW4Wm2JSyT
He stuck his face up into hers. "Why do you host an evil spirit? I can see it, it disgusts me!"
924Please respect copyright.PENANA2O8qFTGV5g
She shook, unable to answer. Please shut up. Even my teeth hurt. She closed her eyes. Go away. Go away. The pain is better than dealing with you!
924Please respect copyright.PENANAeNrHi2GlbR
