The next morning they left to the mountains. Sharp jolts coursed through her back as she stood. Should be healed by now.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAyUxJTuXxkN
Through the white ... all that was visible was Parcival's blue cloak flapping in the wind. A strong gust pushed her back.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAiAfdbEIKYS
He took hold of her hand, then turned and plowed ahead.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAGiMJ7FFn02
Han slid back keeling as another gust pushed on them.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAu552r4SGOT
She extended her hand to him.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAZFNuc6SYAa
Han took it mouthing: 'Thanks.'
776Please respect copyright.PENANADnOWUd7aJK
She nodded.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAjjt6nPybOs
They linked as a chain and proceeded up the path.
776Please respect copyright.PENANASkqNlCrcfC
The blizzard reduced visibility to only a few feet. She squinted hard. A punishment from Olenus?
776Please respect copyright.PENANA21a826prgc
Gripping Parcival's shoulder, she pointed to the left at a large fissure on the mountainside, everyone squeezed into the opening.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAydXeKON34C
She exhaled and shivered.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAdHzanlQY5z
"I want to ask you something," Parcival said.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAFEK7ohso7J
She gingerly laid back against the stone. "What is it?" Her shoulders tensed.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2AeLHtiN2
He faced to the side quiet for a moment.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAlSo8qepPnR
"You died. I saw it. The priest was crazy, but still, without him, you'd still be dead."
776Please respect copyright.PENANArQKL5mp7I5
Merryn fiddled with a loose threadbare tie on her boot.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAAd1SZDrlbR
"He hurt me." She clenched her jaw. Not hating him was hard. She breathed in and whispered a quick prayer.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAkE7T1NpqmJ
His brow deepening between his eyes, the ridges gave a deeper air of seriousness than usual.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAHimHI7y7Au
"I want you to come with me. This infection is causing something, it's damaging more than just your body."
776Please respect copyright.PENANA6TCkhkfqbm
Infection? You could be called that.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAFkMQnkEqsj
He will die first.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAUJTpJxY9ZT
Doubt it.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAX6pNZEHfov
"And, where?"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAf7OcPhXFFM
"Back to my city Luna-jer."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAI95s6CheaO
"I doubt much could be done. I'll think about it. That's enough talk. I need to rest."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAa6s3J263jH
Leaning back, she fell asleep as soon as her eyes closed.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA18rJc0lFtH

776Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7IeBElPA7
776Please respect copyright.PENANA0TuLAnzRfY
When the storm stopped it was nighttime.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA0nk1yUGtND
They exited the crack.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAK6pzONNo0g
Finally. Further, up the path, it widened dipping into a small cavern opening.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA90ciYJUove
The storm moaned one last time as if in lament to its end. A few feet later the opening widened. Standing and, dusting off her clothing.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA6ncXaMkqvE
"Wow, look at the size of this place." Parcival leaned over and whistled. "Deep too."
776Please respect copyright.PENANA0CjyBaNIhI
Two large wooden pegs were in front where the path ended, a rope ladder hung off the ends of them down into the lightless depths.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAFNtgkBCaZ0
Hmm. Going to need a bright one, that's for sure. Instead of just waving her hands, she traced a rune on her palm with a bit of charcoal in a pouch. Blood was best for this, but this will do. She pressed both palms together and envisioned the light globe.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA7642tbn4Y0
"Luminous!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAv0aPYlFarA
The runes warmed on her palms before fading away, spent.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAsZViOsT7Vg
"If we go this path we should be out of these caves by nightfall," Parcival said.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAWRC8keBVkJ

776Please respect copyright.PENANALg6WekfVpn
776Please respect copyright.PENANAlCbcMrBmae
776Please respect copyright.PENANAAQqCuxUw6n
They made their way through a passageway on the right that winded down further.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAXC5aUgk9N0
A low and deep growling sound about mid-bridge. Her ears stood straight up.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA22MImpsPrw
Not good. Everything was still stiff and hurt, so casting the speed spell would probably break the bones again.
776Please respect copyright.PENANABxLJOMqyir
The beast smiled. Saliva dripped from its canines.
776Please respect copyright.PENANADjdSExLGPZ
Really sharp fangs. Mouth dry she rolled her tongue around. It took up most of the cavern, it's tail curled to its paws.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAnjTfisF9l5
"Backup. Back up now. No! Don't freeze up. Move!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAKeUCCasi9A
The beast sighed. It stretched its limb over to Han. With surprising agility, it hooked, its claw under Han's belt dangling him over the bridge.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAoLNUOMTxy0
"I wonder what you taste like. Sweet or salty?" It paused to lick the drool that dripped off its lip. It sniffed Han.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA6t2gNyyzwg
Think, damn it.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA49Q9XQlKWo
Han kicked at its nose, missed and spun around, but his shirt twisting.
776Please respect copyright.PENANATAHx5JkBkI
"I taste awful very rotten. Like Jupern Berries."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAV7RpnhBJ41
Ah!
776Please respect copyright.PENANAnFKkosVj8Q
The beast licked Han's side.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA5UNC0GPrfc
"You don't taste like them." Tilting its head and opening its jaws wide, it dangled Han over its gaping maw.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAzUzW4johYR
Merryn gripped the bridge's sides and went closer.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAVMG7NMN03x
"Surely, you don't want such a puny, hairy, man thing as that in your mouth, do you?"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAot3smSy5K9
Standing tall she struck a flippant pose.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAatcKBTJnsk
"Don't eat me!" Han said. He shook violently.
776Please respect copyright.PENANANwvJbHmIo8
The beast narrowed its eyes at her, "You are in no position to decide, snippet!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAIVqHyd3ojb
"A suggestion, nothing more." She shrugged. Masking the pain from her face, as the back complained.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAaP9B3hZIxT
It brought Hans feet inside his mouth. Han covered his eyes and shuddered, his tail proofed out, quivering.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAbRig108VAp
"By no means, would I dare to tell one as great as you what to do with a meal. It's just that-oh, never mind."
776Please respect copyright.PENANADuWPsPq1Q7
Her fingers icy cold she forced them to unfurl before turning aside. Hoping its curiosity was as great as its pride.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAtweZCAAXeJ
Parcival's eyebrows raised high at this, then he nodded at the beast.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAYfThNayMtv
"I've heard his kind gives such terrible heartburn, not that you'd have to worry about that."
776Please respect copyright.PENANA9mnvR5u1w2
The Behemoth closed its mouth while scratching behind a furry ear. It sat there with a stony glare.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAM0My8y2W06
"You remind me of another annoying forest elf. In fact, you look exactly like her." It swished its tail.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA4pq7Rs4YWh
"A meal will help, I never think well on an empty stomach."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAtMz8KDu36P
It brought Han nearer to its face, then bounced him on its talon. "Heartburn doesn't bother me."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAQrMn3KNGLf
"You are mistaken, oh great one. For this is our first meeting."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAsVfsTbW96p
She shrugged. "You deserve far better than a stringy cat-man." You overgrown rat.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAxyvm6wKtAd
Its eyes were slits as thin as a razor's edge.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAKftI69GySU
"My hunger dulls my mind, unlike your flattery, that is clear. You sound and act much like her. Do not insult my intelligence."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAukj2lq7exr
Think, hurry up. She held her hands out, palms faced up. She smiled and tried to look honest.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAYueZXdCACg
"It is no flattery! You are truly grand, I've never seen the like. Now you insult mine honor."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAlv4RivU6Su
The cavern filled with a deep guttering rumbles.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAG6LdVnaijI
Oh, it's laughing!
776Please respect copyright.PENANAJi8AJhnZ2r
The creatures grinned, showing it's umpteen double rows of pointed teeth.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAyH9q3e99rA
"You know, he does look as if he'd be stringy."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAs6Fiys50WF
She tilted forward.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAOG2VSh5UEq
"Well, if you'd like I could find you something more appetizing." While smiling sweetly at it.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA796jfy3Q4w
Sweat trickled down the back of her neck.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAyO1GrCg6vC
Its eyes gleamed. Without a word, it placed Han down on the ledge. In an instant, it hooked her under the band of her leather armor and now she dangled over the bridge.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAxlZBMZ2C6x
"You're so very right. Why eat that, when another that's so plump and meaty is so close?"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAZY2ppdsPvw
It poked a claw at her breast and her legs. The stench of its breath was vile.
776Please respect copyright.PENANANCIH444FJK
She tried to slow her breaths and stay calm. "Y-o-ou misunderstood me. What of the fleshy Graluv's that graze outside, in the valley below?"
776Please respect copyright.PENANA7lMIJ36Iiw
It huffed at her wetting her cheeks with snot, "Hoo-Hoo! What? And let three easy meals go?"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAiHZiEYGG7d
It poked at the wall next to it with a claw easily. It swung her over to the hole, and with its other paw jammed the tip of her shoulder armor into the hole, locking her in place. The creature reached for Parcival and turned its head.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAs07wUePyfU
Marryn twisted, kicked and pushed on the stone. Arrg!
776Please respect copyright.PENANArAhNcI2Fiy
Han stood up, his knees together. He pulled out his saber from his belt loop running up to the beast, jumped and slashed out with his saber. A direct hit cut its nose wide open. Blood squirted out and ran down.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAR14vgkGVzt
Nice.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAqdqMN40Ajo
"Get him, Han!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAE8wZgegRru
Han winked and made an exaggerated bowing motion complete with hand roll.
776Please respect copyright.PENANALgzuIg3hwf
So cheeky! She smiled working at the stone around her shoulder. She dug a dagger into a crack. The stone wouldn't budge. Sawing on the leather while watching the beast.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAT0dMSiUG7m
The blow not powerful enough to do any real damage, but it had to hurt.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAAE5MVkaf1D
The creature turned to roar in Han's face.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAxnPVissoDC
Her ears rang.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAhkUbcuaK1M
Han cupped his ears.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA95uNP0EsFJ
The beast's eyes smoldered. It smashed the top of the exit to the right with its paw.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAUvqpfR7NKN
The cave wall broke into chunks and blocked the exit. It flipped its tail, sending Han over the side into the depths.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAWB5ZFYTIiK
"Han!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAjUDSF3Z1PL
She pulled, on the stuck armor. Break already! The Behemoth laid its paw on top of her and snorted.
776Please respect copyright.PENANALWzjV23F2R
She froze.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA1YtJ2hGfyM
"Ah, so you do care for the ocelot one."
776Please respect copyright.PENANA82E6ydHoqK
She sniffed indulgently. "Ha! Of course not. Would a dog care for a flea?"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAAZzl1j7Sya
"Hey, I resent that," Han said.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6eLBl0bZ4
Parcival began to pad to the other end of the bridge.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAI7U2JdeEZP
Infernum's short whiskers twitched. He snaked around shoving his face into Parcival's. His breath fogged up Parcival's thick circlet.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAGyvKJEN4nA
"Not so quiet as you imagined you were human."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAnH20qp0Nji
He grabbed at him with its gigantic free paw. It tossed him against the wall where he smashed into it. He slid down against it, stunned.
776Please respect copyright.PENANACzxuyaDy4u
She hacked at the armor, it split and cracked, one last tug.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAgU9OoW9Pkm
"Your honor is but a sham!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAi0xahRibvN
Infernum turned to scrutinize her, "What do you know of honor? I the mighty Infernum am honorable! It is you who has none entering my home without permission!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANADZrE8XAl7c
She tugged, dropping down.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAl8OvQKX6mr
Infernum wrapped its tail around Parcival's torso, hanging him upside down. Parcival's sword slipped free of its scabbard and ricocheted off the edge the ledge.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAFCYrOxtPy4
Parcival gripped Infernum's tail tightly. "Merrlyn!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAHLH4mgM97P
The Ancient-heart inched up again. Calm down. Calm down.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA7YsTlBAThU
"Let him down. Or you will rue this day." Her voice lowered an octave, she punctuated each word slowly.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAsixWST6ocl
Ah, this is what the dark ones did. Interesting. How about a little push vessel?
776Please respect copyright.PENANAPU1O2w8ZVR
No.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAoMtK2DEvqs
Force of will alone won't hold it back forever. That day will come soon.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAMOpliBvluF
Stop distracting me.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAyB3kouia8e
Take care of it then.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAgTetSz0NfC
She pulled her daggers out of their sheaths.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAHErebOMYvn
"I don't bargain. Tell me now, or watch him die like the other," Infernum said.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAC3QOAVmtA6
"I'm done being nice. Pucker formallys and pucker the blow to you!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAPcdwQHPaxv
She raced over to him, bounding over, jumped on his hindquarters, and landed on his back. Then yanked his furry ear.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA2DUDC2txth
Her dagger split its ear in half. Black blood oozed from the wound.
776Please respect copyright.PENANA7sRWzIckjw
Infernum roared.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAgxAIbpEDXs
"You little Brat!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAJj8aJDgJjC
She scrabbled forward leaning over the top of its head pointing a dagger between his eyes.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAG7HfVqzv2Z
"Then how 'bout this, let us see how far I can plunge this into your brain. Does that suit you better?"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAGdrP58QmBb
Infernum's eyes crossed. "I'll give you twenty-four hours to leave my cavern."
776Please respect copyright.PENANApVtvFOCRk5
"Perhaps now is not the time to argue with him," Parcival said.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAX7jasVWQtx
He arched his arms behind him, in an attempt to keep the cape from wrapping around his face.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAscWErppnfi
"I'll make you a deal. Interested?" I beg you Olenus, help us.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAuEl3qjOBMj
"A deal with my lunch? Now you insult me!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAD0b9LDMeno
He swung Parcival like a pendulum.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAm08pcMg4RE
She turned her head. "Well then, Infernum we have nothing to discuss, finish it."
776Please respect copyright.PENANA11r4t7xc7g
"Ah, the little priestess remembers. This pleases me, that you choose the truth."
776Please respect copyright.PENANA9JSj9LHeIm
Infernum set Parcival down on the ledge next to her. It rolled its eyes and snorted.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAzqGAxnzOvm
"What could you possibly have to interest me?"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAfruExOYcF6
A quick glance at Parcival, still there, good.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAe2hEuX036M
"I was thinking that very thing. I was thinking how vulnerable you must feel when sleeping."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAJv1hsLBcRs
"Is that a threat?" He growled, blowing hot breath from his muzzle.
776Please respect copyright.PENANATQKejhXi6L
"Oh, no, it's just well-them."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAQhaMxu0kMN
"Them? Who is them?"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAihA6TxqrlX
He pinched her shoulder with the points of two claws. She winced.
776Please respect copyright.PENANALRULuwuI1j
"Didn't you hear? You must have by now!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAezpv4P76e2
"little elf tell me or ..." He let Parcival slip before tightening the tail.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5DJEr2fWK
"Let him go, and I'll tell you."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAvpJnrJP9T2
"Let him go?" He dangled Parcival further over the abyss.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAKRcQaOwtqD
"Them. The rumors in the towns lately, someone or something has been killing off the big five. So far three are dead. The last dragon, chimera, and unicorn."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAdCcJqyrnSi
Before he replied she leapt off, landing by Parcival, slashed
776Please respect copyright.PENANAWm1jEAFNIN
"It's about time. Have any idea how much that hurt?"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAVLtZEiMFgF
She elbowed him in the ribs. "Shut up, and jump!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAU9UFhCq2CI
"I'm not jumping down there!" he looked at her with wide eyes.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAkJZAB9vVh7
I thought he had caught on? She pulled on his arm, sending him over the edge. Then dove after him.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAaAoXQ0DGH1
"Little Elvin! Finish what were to say, or burn!
776Please respect copyright.PENANA27MfVRjk9v
Marryln fell for what felt like an eternity, then splashed into a deep lake in the cavern. She swam up breaking the surface, then gasped drawing in a burning breath.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAr9Qr8co7Aa
Han is there at the edge of the water sitting on his haunches shivering.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAvRKAXVAbWP
Immediately, Parcival whizzed down, smashing his chest on a small ledge. He bounced off it, splashed into the lake and sank. Dregs of the chamber pot! Is he dead? Don't be dead ...
776Please respect copyright.PENANALTN9b8HcD8
She dived after him. She wrapped her arms around his chest and fought against his weight, while her lungs screamed for air. She pulled him, dragging him to the edge of the lake.
776Please respect copyright.PENANABlUID5kD82
Han jumped out of the lake and helped.
776Please respect copyright.PENANABoIsyWmsb8
"Have to get his chest armor off, and check him for any injuries."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAC0jJ2NxxtT
Han pointed to the large dent on the side of the armor.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAxWp0Dzrqub
She pushed him upright and undid the buckles on the left side. He flopped out onto his back, groaning.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAVAw7cXci5M
"Sit him up again."
776Please respect copyright.PENANANDvUP60FCc
With him upright again, he worked the vest padding off and rolled up his shirt.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAKZNvmUjm9R
His right side was red, swollen and already turning a blueish green. Han ran his furry hands up and down his sided, making softly mewing. The tip of his tail twitched.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAbrVKfCaDyJ
"Feels like he has about three ribs broken. Come on lets us move him over here. I'll start healing him." He pointed to a dry area ahead.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAYcsgXVHM9C
"This is going to take a while, stand guard."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAcdDvt3F1BY
"All right."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAuZCbJY8qW7
He chanted a spell, then spread his hands, placing them on Parcival's side.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAdUA85qYc6P
A few hours after, she paced the cavern from the edge of the lake to the northern wall.
776Please respect copyright.PENANATBtm2NIr6Q
Later that morning Han stopped and rolled down Parcival's shirt.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAJYkojTJjKb
Parcival moaned.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAvJLvEo2kZ5
"Don't move!" Han pushed on his chest. "You're still healing, rest."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAQMXs4HCaPE
He grunted. "Oy! That beast, completely distasteful. How long have I been out?"
776Please respect copyright.PENANA6ojwZsJrTF
"About twenty-eight hours," she said. Distasteful? A corner of her lip quirked. A novel way to take it.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAF0Sjq7bKKM
They locked looks. He seemed colder, more distant. Must be angry, I let him fall.
776Please respect copyright.PENANANHeJ9vJzs4
The cavern above rumbled and a handful of rocks came tumbling down. A blast of air wormed its way down the cavern tunnel Growing louder each second. She covered her ears.
776Please respect copyright.PENANARAEr8iB51H
Parcival pushed himself upright and clenched his jaw. "Let's go."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAPkSaGEd7rD
"You're going to hurt yourself, lay down!" Han said.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAEEYZm1imxW
His tail swished back and forth. As another roar torpedoed down throughout the cave and his ears flattened.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAjHCePM0iLn
"You can't heal what's dead. I'll look for a way out you stay with him."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAoNWTJR4ZJk
Merryn searched around the area by the lake, there were no passageways to be seen, only a dead end.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAdzbOn4gET6
Walking back over to the lake she knelt down, and peered deep into the water, spying what looked like another cavern entrance.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAOIEuSn9Wbo
"Over here!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANACn1fkA8HD7
"I'll follow you later, give me a few minutes."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAi8KXE6NkrJ
"I thought you were tougher than that."
776Please respect copyright.PENANANGhvmlH8YT
She ran over to him pulling his left arm over her shoulder and helped him up.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAYvrxIPI2Gf
"Come on, move!"
776Please respect copyright.PENANAZDLbP3wwVA
Han ran back over to the cavern wall ahead, where his pack is on the ground.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAUQOmg2YLNC
"Han, leave it," she said.
776Please respect copyright.PENANArgLleikKC7
"I need it! Go, I'll be right behind you."
776Please respect copyright.PENANAcyAwLzrm6c
They worked their way down to the underwater cavern entrance, that is off to the right.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAxbcpPZ4VCw
Several seconds later, there's a dull thump from above, the whole cavern rumbled and they dodged several stalactites that came crashing down.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAxqQ9FRaM8R
She swam between the falling ones and prayed to the wind spirits to grant her haste. She lost a little air, and bubbles came out of her mouth.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAbeicoX0Ef3
Parcival nodded. He took some weight off of her by leaning to the right.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAK6tLVmQsd0
So tired. She slowed but kept going.
776Please respect copyright.PENANABzIARO7yqh
She gripped his hand that hung down on her shoulder and went deeper forward dodging the falling chunks.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAaUlJD8aigW
Behind her, she spotted Han struggling to swim far back behind her.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAzmTuuFDbN0
Infernum a sleek linear forum twisted in the water.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAnKjhOgbOeJ
It whipped its tail out in front, just missing taking Hans head off.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAT51XvDqi3O
Han's eyes bulged and a few bubbles escaped his mouth. He swam frantically.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAIa6EH9mUhd
The falling stalactites and chunks of cavern ceiling that came crashing down.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAUP69y3T1xm
Infernum hidden behind the screen of murky water whipped his tail at Han.
776Please respect copyright.PENANAqd4bWc0vWT
