She pushed on his chest while turning him about. Then did the same to Han. "Go!"
732Please respect copyright.PENANANm67RoJDzm
"I resent being-"
732Please respect copyright.PENANA7IsyjPmqQZ
She growled at him. The Ancient side threatened to rip through her layers of self-control.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAX9GspnDXfu
She grabbed their arms, flipping them over twenty feet away, onto the soft grasses.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAChNCNmCAG5
The spider-nab dropped out of the tree. She growled at it, unable to speak. Her body dripped with sweat. Daggers in hand.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAz3A7RQjYnU
I like this side of you. It's amusing to me, Unnamed said.
732Please respect copyright.PENANACd5xvIRoPt
Just shut up.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAaNaZnmpKFx
It lunged at her aiming for her head.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAwRA4csT7fZ
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?
732Please respect copyright.PENANA2XJ7Cr4Gki
Parcival and Han ran over.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAutrVi7Z4aP
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAamiUMFtyfZ
It hissed low raising on its back legs, she rolled to the side, but not before its fangs sank into her arm.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAILF5fUCHC6
She screamed.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAhpPVvq43Xs
The poison already was paralyzing her arm, it burned. She went down to her knees, hands propped on the soil. The blood lust vanished.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAKWISnM91RV
"Merryn!"
732Please respect copyright.PENANAAH3BCMNNIX
Han bounded over. Could only see his furry feet. He set his hands on her shoulders, a warming sensation spread down her back.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAAW74eiiR2V
She coughed.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAS6FwfAURj0
The spider-nab let out an airy squeal.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAAqETWoGvZc
"Die already!" Parcival poked its abdomen with his saber.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA8NjFlDwoWw
The Adapts are wrong. Humans aren't week. She smiled a tiny bit.
732Please respect copyright.PENANARLfvn2GgSh
The warmth receded, as a burning starting at the base of her spine pushing it away.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAymq1lDVj42
"It's not working! Parcival quit playing with it and kill it already."
732Please respect copyright.PENANAgQDcI5NjXI
She sank down on her stomach. So tired now.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAspCJx4SAFI
Her heartbeat in forefront, slowed.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAzyxpqquiFo
Thud-thump.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAtMHqnlKbRR
The spider-nab fell down into its own body fluids, as its appendages were chopped off. Good.
732Please respect copyright.PENANALM3pWEQbjg
Idiot, should have taken the mountain route. Gods hex it all! If it ... get's free they'll die too.
732Please respect copyright.PENANANsEfqzB46A
Thud-thump.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAXQnai50RtP
One of them snorted. "You call that playing?"
732Please respect copyright.PENANAVSLgWHpeum
"Can you fix this?"
732Please respect copyright.PENANAGhwfBnM5WI
"No, it's too hard. She needs a higher tier priest. I'm more of a scribe then a healer."
732Please respect copyright.PENANAfPXE6jDn3M
"Leave me."
732Please respect copyright.PENANAQCGpvZ4eVq
"Did you say something?" One of them said, as to who, well, they both sounded metallic.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAUYUf06HjL9
"She's becoming cold. Hurry up!"
732Please respect copyright.PENANAbvkTENgK4e
The burning poison spread into her torso, then to her toes.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA0ggL7djhEN
Thud-thump.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAFuMzi3CXT9
"Need to hurry, her aura is fading."
732Please respect copyright.PENANAeqmHXQ7V6t
"She's delirious."
732Please respect copyright.PENANAqjImjXvutS
One picked her up. She shuttered as the touch sent a shock into the biten sholder.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA4UXLwpgC39
"Sorry."
732Please respect copyright.PENANALiNBr8pW5f
Some use I am, falling to poison of all things.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAeIddTeWK7i
Curses and angry words filled her ears.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA66acRfWW96
Thoughts became heavy after this and her eyesight cloudy. She closed them.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAl8Dm0L4GJU
You dare to die on me vessel? I'm not done! Answer me now!
732Please respect copyright.PENANANwTEFVeBDR
"Merryn! Don't give way to sleep!"732Please respect copyright.PENANAbE0pd6ql2e
732Please respect copyright.PENANA4aY3I86jT2
Shaking.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAlwU7MeF4VQ
Thud.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAJVZxO6I0Wg
The darkness gathered from all sides, each sense faded in turn until just the darkness remained.
732Please respect copyright.PENANArQrfjMT2An
Silence.
732Please respect copyright.PENANASIcNtqhryR
####
732Please respect copyright.PENANAjocvcXl8Cs
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAQXwHtTk5WY
Where am I?
732Please respect copyright.PENANAkiBljFnIQO
All looked different, had a gray tint to it like when at night. She stood behind Parcival.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAUtHqTAXj3a
He shook ... my body?
732Please respect copyright.PENANAAhmYnewcwu
Then shouted while he carried her as he ran towards a dirt road off to the east.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA56htR5MpX9
She was pulled out along with them, so stopped trying to walk.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAho6PbxBNMY
I hope they figure out my body needs to be sealed or Unnamed will come out. Probably kill them. Why?!
732Please respect copyright.PENANACdegGCb4Uf
There were threads of energy connected to the body. They were so transparent that they were easy to miss.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAGPtDCkQE8J
My fingers. She formed a fist and thrust her right spirit arm to the side.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAsMIYR8MK23
Nothing.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAXLieGwTtAc
Now what?
732Please respect copyright.PENANA6J7kAfr1xy
Energy. What was it mom said about this again?
732Please respect copyright.PENANAWFb0BLMKfS
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANATNlE4WviqR
Energy. Our souls are energy, with bodies of flesh to ... to what?
732Please respect copyright.PENANAyy7VDFxZBb
Memories were as slippery now as an interrupted dream.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAYP1X5entSS
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAomULahzEfT
Hum. Some used treestone but it wasn't the same it didn't collect the light spirts energy as well.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAF7j6SFfYkR
What was I doing?
732Please respect copyright.PENANAaw9TjLbpYU
Part of her wanted to wander inside.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAXkMW9gH1mh
The priest looked straight at her.
732Please respect copyright.PENANANxyH5adC1R
Can he see me?
732Please respect copyright.PENANA77srPS00ls
He visibly paled. Then began talking rapidly to tall armored man and the puffy cathet man.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAQxnb9XY4SJ
They all went inside, pulling her with.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAu23Dzd9kF8
Ick. Her body was swollen and seeped blood from her mouth and nose. Yuck.
732Please respect copyright.PENANADPos6X62os
She backed away as far as the thread would allow.
732Please respect copyright.PENANACQu89Aqb2H
Her body twitched and jerked.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAYjyGgTQkvT
Oh. Right. That's what I've been doing.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAIyJl5rYLYS
She jumped and flung both arms up.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAZLxkSaVeje
Nothing. Again?
732Please respect copyright.PENANAiGpeETm7qe
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANArKUZGQJKpl
All three yelled and backed off from the body.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAVsRGpCAEJO
Oops.
732Please respect copyright.PENANANFeJsLvxMR
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA79yZI4qLDK
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAy4kSdZdgRQ
He pointed to the armored man, who nodded and placed her body there on her back.
732Please respect copyright.PENANATnPmt2n9nt
The priest talked some more, and they all sat down. The priest at the North end of the rune, Parcival west and Han East.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAWWfENk3AoS
It was difficult to watch, she squeezed her eyes shut.
732Please respect copyright.PENANApsKfAOzCTm
When she opened them her body's eyes opened as well.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAl0h1ApgldW
All three sat around her cross-legged, they startled when the body's eyes opened.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAjlVtTGAB4B
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAuulXG9bQwL
I'll just sit here, trying to move just upsets them.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAmd22Cweatv
She sat beside the armored man. He shivered.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAtvI7ncl1IN
A bright beam extended out of the priests palms seconds later the same from the others.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAN54dZZrrIo
The beams intersected together over her torso.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAvuwPiNxLlj
Her body writhed.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAD4fh3AOo9a
Vines sprouted from under the body and whipped out at the three, coiling around them.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA1ufUUAopjh
That can't be good. That's right, for good or ill, I'm that things vessel, must be looking for energy.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAAS7ozd4ijo
But ... why care? A new pulling sensation different from the darker ancient one tugged.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAefqQbtOUOO
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAnuzyJvzNJT
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:
732Please respect copyright.PENANAcDe1Hc44me
"Come."
732Please respect copyright.PENANASGQKhn4r7q
She held back just shy of taking his hand. Tears wet her cheeks. Grandfather. She shook her head slowly.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAIyX0WkK27P
He nodded and turned back into the tree. It dipped back down, vanishing.
732Please respect copyright.PENANArIXWqyHZds
Twisting around, the men struggled under the vines. She frowned. Why are they so important?
732Please respect copyright.PENANAU03pgbhXYw
Yes. The god. The weakened god. Was it trying to take their energy?
732Please respect copyright.PENANAFDIBC6gyCT
She pushed it aside and went over to her body. She gathered the threads in both hands and yanked on them. Come on!
732Please respect copyright.PENANARWqkK55SeV
The body twitched.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAp00tg7nE6e
Vines erupted out from her mouth, they wrapped her body covering it. While the other ones tightened. The vines glowed and Han slumped over.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAwQhSmYjYnA
Must do something! But what?
732Please respect copyright.PENANAo7cseWF6Fe
The priest jumped up, tensing up his arms.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAulXtIYF7yp
That is it!
732Please respect copyright.PENANAjZWsV50TSC
Sweat ran down his face as he tensed against the bonds.
732Please respect copyright.PENANANiu8LL4cMQ
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAFcn3S9YFyY
Turning back, the priest was glowing. The vines split, showing a glowing white hand.
732Please respect copyright.PENANALaDWj0MmVG
I see, he used a light spell to cut it. Clever. Light has heat as well.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAK5anwvG8yp
He freed the others, than walked over in front of her then pointed at the body.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAO55Kq9RZhM
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAcDvwX4Vpyp
I'm not going back in that!
732Please respect copyright.PENANA2yGi7EIEni
He looked at her and pointed to it.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAlOWjVJYXFr
What? What do you want? I can't go back in. Right?
732Please respect copyright.PENANAcUkZZIhDFm
She shuttered.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAiyB6tOe96F
The man in armor came and gingerly picked up the body, placing it again on the rune.
732Please respect copyright.PENANADbAWHLQtMU
She moved forward following it some.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAroZLy4eORv
They talked again and started up the bright beam again. This time finishing and covering the body.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAYqrnVkueUf
The thread shortened dragging her toward it.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAnCIxTaF6bM
No! I changed my mind! She clawed at the smooth marble unable to grip it.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA0HR8ZIvYKf
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.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAS28FKp16v0
A final tug pulled her back in.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAnMFX54Ys6i
The world flooded back, lights, sounds, color.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA7LIXodmCEB
Pain.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA53MgCpHftj
Everything is pain.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAR172mqtcSy
Her body twitched.
732Please respect copyright.PENANARPedQykIRO
Han had his hands on her chest, they glowed green.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAk3IcuEjnpO
No, let me die!
732Please respect copyright.PENANAt1Zk2P6gBt
A touch.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA3hLmnCC5Iq
The man ... Parcival. He held her.
732Please respect copyright.PENANALlYv5giaca
"Stop scaring me like that," he said.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA9cpoL6AFa3
A croaking sound came from her was she tried to speak. She coughed and spewed out a mouthful of blood.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAoZvzm5aWPO
He stiffened. "Get over here and heal her all ready!"
732Please respect copyright.PENANA4my6vSIyfk
"Of course," a gravely voice said. She turned her head a little. Ah, the priest.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAhyQWlUna4u
Her body strained to bend during a spasm, her back cracked.
732Please respect copyright.PENANADyqPq2rFIf
"Yaaaa!"
732Please respect copyright.PENANAwCCwiU3nwd
The wall. My back hit the wall.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAsBFA4Akmd8
Tears squeezed out, as all of the pain scorched through her. She clenched her jaw.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA5fY8t9iJVZ
"Don't let her move, she's still close to death. Keep her sill."
732Please respect copyright.PENANA89w3eSIKiY
Parcival's huge hand hovered over her face, then rested on the crown of her head the other pushed down on her stomach.
732Please respect copyright.PENANA9wzGZBZaag
"Stop moving," the priest said.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAAZALCZVCsu
"Shhhh."
732Please respect copyright.PENANAfA3vMHzpDA
She huffed. It did hurt less being still. Or was that the healing spell?
732Please respect copyright.PENANAVfUmO5ao4a
Regardless a not so bad numbness seeped in. Her face relaxed, she unclenched her jaw.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6BdGyluHe
Hans face hovered over. "How do you feel now?"
732Please respect copyright.PENANAd8pc74LQzl
"Numb."
732Please respect copyright.PENANAgZHKFo3CLg
He managed to pale under the fur. He looked at the priest who shook his head.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAoPYvonyXBz
"Go grab the long flat board in the other room."
732Please respect copyright.PENANArz6OZ3Nju0
Han came back a while later, holding it. They held her neck and back with their hands, then slid her on it.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAdlBaFr5DgA
It pinched. But do-able.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAr53TqEONyo
They took her to a room with a small bed and lifted her on it.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAXckqZKmK7u
"Go now, I'll tend to her. Get some rest," the priest said.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAMvuj3naX3Y
Later they left, he closed the door, then came back.
732Please respect copyright.PENANArbJFVGUH92
"What to do with you?" He brought a thin object from under the left side if his robe.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAIP8UJXffPV
Its handle that showed shone in the candle light.
732Please respect copyright.PENANAN73xjgHUVH
She flinched and was rewarded with a bolt of pain that sucked away her breath.
732Please respect copyright.PENANARVGa4xBHlA
"If I heal you that thing lives. If I let you die it will be free. Correct?"
732Please respect copyright.PENANA7XmcAyvkxU
He stuck his face up into hers. "Why do you host an evil spirit? I can see it, it disgusts me!"
732Please respect copyright.PENANAadheKrOQ2I
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!
732Please respect copyright.PENANAPeXZYiQhBa
