Merryn opened the door a little. Maxwell again. Somehow, he always managed to show up. How did he keep finding them? There were no mages in his party, at least none that looked like one.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAZu6qQGHqb2
Footsteps from behind.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA1yTZ7mawBC
"They will kill you; why don't you com-" Parcival placed his hands on hers.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAr03oq1Ivyi
"Then what? They'll burn this town to ashes looking for me."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAaAAKedBBDr
She took her hands out of his. Did he really care, or was there another reason? She wrapped her pouch's ties around her fingers tightly.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAkPhGIrwA87
She rubbed her arm. How am I to follow Olenus' teachings if-? There wasn't any other choice.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA0X7Tz9MeOG
Parcival's palms smacked the tabletop.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAHpQk1MGpZs
"Takes only one hit from those spears of theirs, and you will be afflicted with the poison, paralyzed, waiting for a slow death when your heart explodes hours later."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAQzZNYHdpMv
She flinched.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAg1ZKdGp114
"He won't be able to touch me, much less injure me. You forget who you're dealing with, human," she huffed. She glared at him. Insulting is what it was. Losing to a human?
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAC2mduJFxAM
"Do you know nothing of the Elven?"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAu7ZtDIvDZM
The hairs on her arms bristled, and she fought down a darkness, a darkness all her own. Can't let it win. It's bad enough the god had piggybacked, but to have to deal with what the dark spirits had placed?
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAjGRNL3flDP
"I admit my studies are lacking when it comes to your people, but only because they refuse to share much of their history and culture."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA1nv5bnDtun
A pained expression crossed his face; it was at odds with his words.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANArYPfamPhbA
"If you like, I could tell you a little, sometime?"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAbd3y0Rh7q1
It was strange caring about this; everything inside was a warped mess. Have been hanging around with the man too long. Is this the weakness mother tried to explain? She scowled.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA4BBiZxe4xE
"Would you? I mean, it would be most interesting to learn about your history; so little is known."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAmLsNxlvMyH
His face took on that look only young kids had and in his eyes, a spark kindled for just a minute. A smile played on her lips. His mood was Infectious. Hea.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA3hKBEaZpMR
If you get too soft people will die. Remember, he's out there.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAMPmXFoYhI8
It was something she wanted to bring back often. Everything they'd told her about humans just didn't fit, to how he this one acted. She bit the inside of her cheek. It brought back some measure of control.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAwyKWlNhCPC
Get a hold of yourself now.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAjmSKJm5FN3
Reality sucked rotten hog hanks as Maxwell's voice lanced from outside. There were no joys not for me.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA6bnNMg1pZD
"I want no mistakes, this time, understand? Capture them both and burn the town to the ground!"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA5C5RKOjX6B
It was hard to see through the tiny carved window.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAwqdeJv3XJh
The Nekhawk circled the church above, swooping down. It landed on Maxwell's shoulder. Its tentacles curled upwards as it preened a wing. Not that thing again.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAFsdxA6Ko7Y
Maxwell faced his men. They all nodded. They spread out, each standing by a house with an unlit torch in hand.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6xu6wrPTF
"Let me go out there. A woman should not do this. This is absurd!"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANARkOK6MRFBb
He held both her arms with both of his hands.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAjyIz9sY13t
"You're not going out there."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAc37UhEpDTP
"Let go, now." They never said not to knock them unconscious.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAtwxsMmn9tD
"You shouldn't have to do this ..." He breathed in several short, shallow breaths.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAF4P5tE60iq
She suppressed a smile. He really didn't know? The naivety was refreshing.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA04VTleojEQ
The vines on her back warmed then turned hot. They worked in deeper. She backed up slowly to the wall. Dizzy again. Sounds took longer to understand.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAKoNDNgOWtL
The vines under the skin of her neck moved up; they tapped repeatedly at the back of her skull. She clawed at the vines and shrieked.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAb2QQh6aac1
Resisting makes it harder. Like it or not, this is happening. The side effects are unfortunate.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA19DXrqD6J0
Everything had a haze to it as if a bad dream she couldn't quite shake off.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA535jxGfkgW
"You need to recover more. Go lay down. I'll take care of this." He held out his hand.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAsb54O5NmzD
She moved to him. A pinched expression strained his face.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA5bVsHV0Yhz
Before she could ask him who he was, a voice in her mind interrupted her.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANACEN8LGiBgu
Pretend you know him. Say nothing.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAbTXnwrg9UY
This voice. She held her head in her hands. A vague memory surfaced. An image of an energy field. A yellow stone? Ah, a crystal, it turned dark then went away. The ache that came with it didn't.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAucxkzwD1hI
She rubbed her forehead and breathed a ragged breath. "You may be right."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANARD0rGv0kvL
"Your face is flushed." He came over and reached out.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAaUaMEmjfU8
She bent away. Now wasn't the time for this. Need a clear head.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA8zN2FqzfJV
"You don't have to go out there."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA9IuvfDkIto
Out? should I?
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAnvdTCnWXpd
You decided in the name of peace to dispose of Maxwell.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAzl7rFkkzmO
Destroy? Peace, what was this? Let me wake up! The warmth cooled, and her scalp prickled. She shook her head as a rush pricked over her scalp. A thought in the back if her mind, it fluttered out of grasp. Listen to the man or a creepy voice. Both options sucked.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAgRCKLUJVGs
"Let me help." The man stood in front, his eyebrows raised.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAu3Og0HhPmE
This one sucked less. Did he have the other? 1138Please respect copyright.PENANAOKzIIuwaOy
Yes, let him take care of Maxwell. It's time to go home. Do you remember?1138Please respect copyright.PENANAFYxj530n8b
But you just said not to. Who are you?
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAE6EIbh1Hro
I changed my mind. Do as I say.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANALVbmybb6z8
Another rush. A broken image of a dry wasteland, its sky dark, broken by lighting. This was home?
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAFa2gC9RnzU
Yes. You must get there.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAYsjDYgk3B2
Who are you?
1138Please respect copyright.PENANArKT6XSospj
A friend. His thoughts were syrupy and thick in nature.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAPNFThb6tGb
Rings of smoke tickled her nose. A cat man sat reserved puffing his pipe. His ears turned back.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAM7uQl25TUV
In the Undergod's name! She backed up as he grew closer. Would it eat her?
1138Please respect copyright.PENANABDOgQFXFH8
"You're looking ill."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANALgkzIiWUwW
The strange blue-eyed man was suddenly close to her face! She scrambled; her back pressed to a wall. He looked at her, then at Han. His brows rose and then crinkled.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAWgGiAjUQNq
"Remember when you found her in the rafters?"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAgG2dTM0ZRE
The cat-man breathed in a deep, fearsome breath; his teeth poked out.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAwvJ0JZXgD4
"The infection seems to have an adverse effect on her. It would be wise to get her to stay in here."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAFXJsFmGvcM
He pushed the chair next to the table, picked up a necklace with beads on it, and put it around his neck.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAIZnTQBuc3d
She edged towards the door as they talked. Where's Dad? Where the hell is this? Have to get back home; a pulling from within towards the sea and beyond called.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA5njzoRDpBA
"Don't go out there!" the cat-man said.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAgQDMCd2DRP
No, let them take care of it.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAlCCYpPkNMr
You're crazy; make up your mind! Could the others hear this voice? No, of course not, they'd say something.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAs8fHR4w1LO
Nobody tells me to shut up. You ... it trailed off, quiet.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAanrdvdi5gF
"Where is the disgusting Elven? Send her out now, or I'll burn this town!"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAaqoHW5XL9d
Hoofbeats resound outside.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAMDL3foIxtX
Through the window slit many men passed.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA1Bgn7vRkya
She edged closer to the door, gripped the steel door handle, and took in a deep breath.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA6gbpYrT6Pb
Several doors slammed outside as the panicked people ran into their homes.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAqYnKarxvt6
"You have no right to threaten our town, you filthy bugbear!" the old woman yelled and shook her hands at Maxwell.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANABVLkPGEM30
"Hold your tongue, woman, or I'll cut it off."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8VHUvEhMU
The blue-eyed man came out of the church then stood in front of the old woman.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANArrVO7j0fTi
"You will not."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAHVbpYHhDRH
Grabbing the handle, she yanked it open and went down the steps.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAVNFASDHUN8
"Leave her alone," Marryn said in a tight, baneful voice.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA0JLSr1mt30
Defying me? For what, a wrinkled raisin of a woman?
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAL2u1QHH6zs
Do you ever stop talking, spirit?
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAanjpB2t0QM
The old woman ran into her house and slammed the door. The already empty streets grew even quieter, if that was even possible.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAa9Xou4GK8d
The blue-eyed man came over.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANArklu8Wed6A
"No, get out of here."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA2UVgG8jnZP
She pointed at the road. "Go."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANArh3F6NVn8o
"I will not. You know exactly why."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAfmKyPHV3mq
He straightened then pushed her behind, sword drawn.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAfv4cvs2A3T
"Go back inside. I don't need your help." Fourteen harpy hells, this man was vexing.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAndMJTJ4SKA
Maxwell. I know him. As for the others the names were fuzzy. Negative energy came off him, comparative to a squall ready to blow through anything in his path. Clenched teeth and face taunt, he pulled the spear off his back ,dashing with it.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANASv7qbsrdNc
She shoved the blue-eyed man out of the way.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAEhBOfayY5W
With little time to think, much less react, she swerved out of the way. She stumbled and caught her balance.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAD63N7hWqIS
The armored man wrapped a hand around the hilt of his sword.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA6STFdt9SdY
The cat man grabbed his hand and shook his head. He motioned the other man to move back over to the church.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA5PaNHa78b9
The headache faded; all came to focus. One minute it seemed she was in the church talking with Parcival, and then in another, facing Maxwell. What was going on here? The vines relaxed, and her clarity returned.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAxIzAEusiGU
She turned her head pleading with her eyes, don't.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANACbDfiV7gZC
Parcival's arm fell to his side, and his fists clenched. "This is all wrong." He went down the church steps, hesitated, and followed Han.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANABZnCRtcorA
He spun around then lunged forward a few steps. His brows had knit together with his lips drawn. He gripped the sword's scabbard so tightly the leather grip squeaked. So protective, why?
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAyuAgQmw7FG
Han shook his head. "Let it be. He's a king's guard."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAIsCkiLSDph
"The law? You mean his law." Parcival spat onto the ground.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAmtQNVXGjmf
"Are you trying to get us all killed?" Han yanked on his arm.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA3QVcfZWPgk
Maxwell turned towards them. "I'll deal with you later."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA0N62u3A6Ny
Then focused on her, she let go of a breath she was holding. He ran towards her and lunged. The blade of the spear clanged against her blades.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAVR3LLwgRq5
She avoided the same fate to her neck, by craning away a fraction faster. Have to get out of here. Am way over matched. What to do? There's so little time. The way back to the road was open. Could just vanish now; that last loss of spiritual energy was the worst to happen this week.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAZPNWfyQWOU
She backed up into what she assumed was a lamp post. I want to go home, back to the temple.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAzuQiXg0jJY
As do I. Shut off the inner waterfall already. It's fight or die.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAT0GxvoTIOw
I really, really, really hate you.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA6dUVDhb7OW
Never should have opened my prison then.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAdv7qATD7XD
She pushed up against the lamp post, standing tall. It helped shore up some courage or at least bravo.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAzP2AAIGtFv
She hissed at Maxwell and lunged at him. Gah, just go away.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAINI70QEWdv
"Your corpse on a funeral pyre would look pretty, and such a fitting entrance to the Underworld."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAALl4zhpt4c
She shrunk back and tried to edge away. The answer left a keen pang in her stomach.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAz6Wu0zAD6W
He spun the spear in the air and aimed at her head again. Great, just great! Her pulse quickened, and her breathing faster. That was way too close.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAbnqgczTr8v
Maxwell held it with both hands, now, as he attempted to land a massive blow to her skull.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAHnpfbSVNsi
She gripped the post with both hands, twisted in mid-air and swung around, and let go. Both blades crossed in front of her.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA9PCybNHifE
"I don't want to fight. Leave me alone, now!"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAA7fo2fa38W
"You say one thing and act in another. All is irrelevant. You'll pay for what you did. If you want to make it easy for me then, go ahead."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAUO8NvmQaOg
He jumped back, his arms out for balance, and then lunged forward with the spear. She ran around a large flower pot, jumping onto the eaves of a house. His spear hit behind her; several roof pottery tiles shattered.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAfm7FXRXXhX
As he came closer, she kicked at him. It didn't phase him. He closed the distance and twirled the spear above his head. It whirred in the air. She cried out and backed away into a wall.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAqZwjgeDmIy
All I want is to help. Let me take over for a while.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAzP7qCGRS9r
Don't want your kind of help.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA7asL7SmJxB
She ran at Maxwell with her blades crisscrossed and aimed for his neck. I won't lose to a human.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAWZyHbsqokC
He is mine, as are you. Let me stop him. Give me control.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAKF0tWb3KS2
Go away.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAcFfLhryaQ3
She clenched and unclenched a dagger handle, while tracking Maxwell's movements. There had to be some way to stop him.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA0qCfIcqdF9
"So close, yet once again, you missed the mark!"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAkinxj1JNDV
He backed and parried. His muscles bulged as he pushed down on the blades.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAHZOh56i3iB
She fought against letting loose the hungry ancient heart contained within, threatening to boil over and consume the last gossamer thread left of control.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA3CbMzRleYP
Listen to the call, the blood of your enemy dripping from your blade. The sound of shattered of bones, the pure glory of the kill. Your people were once great warriors, now infected with compassion and peace. Don't deny your true self.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA8X5PE4sqim
No wonder they locked you away. She squeezed her fist as the blood call gnawed under the surface. Shut up!
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAwL3rnKDK5o
His spear clashed amid the blades. He pushed down, sending a spray of sparks erupting into the air.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAeti9r4FxA5
The day grew hotter and pushed down on her, almost as much as Maxwell.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANABkFlHTLt5T
He looked down at her. "Why do you fight me? Accept your death with grace! I was not the one who slaughtered thousands of people that day! Or, are you just uncaring?"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANABTA6M6a9zT
"That isn't-"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAtVipLCJrEI
His words heavier than any spear.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAqyI0biyzYf
Let me out, now or die.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAFHVlTNeSpX
Be quiet!
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAzEUhFaXAJi
Maxwell pushed her down to her knees.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAf4GyZlAKVO
How can he grin right now? Her arms burned with the effort of moving the spear tip away from her neck.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA2dzGQv7XwS
The armored man dashed forward, then pointed his sword at Maxwell's head.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAv33hCMBeHx
Maxwell looked at him, his eyes but slits. A darkness formed over Parcival. He dropped his sword onto the grass. He slumped down on the ground and collapsed.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAXeXglaZAiC
"Get back." Sweat dripped down her forehead and off her nose.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAcI7V7kHf9u
Parcival's face peaked, and his lips whitened. He clamped his mouth shut. His eyes glazed, and he drew in a breath through his teeth. His legs twitched violently, and his eyes rolled back into his head, showing the white undersides.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA8WRR7AaOES
"He's innocent; let him go," she said.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAKHHkgpX1o9
Maxwell grounded his teeth, snarling. "Go home, fledgling."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAhR1EEG58Fy
Han grabbed Parcival by the arm and dragged him away.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAJCpsjNV8o0
He focused on her, once again; he struck the spear down hard near her heart. It took all her concentration to hold the god at bay.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANASkzkW5F32a
With each breath, she drew in the spear, inching ever closer to her heart. She let go, freeing one hand, while keeping the spear away from her neck with the other. Her other hand slipped out a throwing dagger she hid under her back armor. She slashed at his hands and cut a deep gash on the top of it.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAbTSpF2Q24i
Blood ran down his arm in a stream; the smell of it filled the air with a sharp metallic smell.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANApNqC7ySe4h
She ran at him, again and tried to stab his bare chest.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA86dHc5SzD7
He pushed away from the dagger with the sword hilt. "What are you smiling about? Stop it, I say!" he said.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAROiz3uMWWG
An instant later, he stepped back. Smiling? Since when is a grimace a smile? Idiot.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA5AlddAafdX
Maxwell's head jerked back, and he sucked in a breath. Before she could move away, he backed up, then twirled around and landed a lucky strike that clobbered her shoulder.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAj73tCynPFM
She tried to get way as he hammered down on her with the blunt end of the spear. It was all she could do to protect her head with her arms.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANACH3U0emWOp
"Stop this!" A shuffling of feet.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAKsrZrKmiop
"You want more pain, Paladin?"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAiQ0W3RLXiJ
Moving was was painfull, she staggered and fell.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAoz0X84ffgs
Han closed his eyes and turned around.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAO83RLx54vE
"I hate her more, than I fear you," Maxwell said. "I don't fear you much, cub."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANALl0yMGcdRl
Parcival ran at him.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA09JVjAb6tv
Han slammed into his knees, knocking him down.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAiKbuexp5gY
"He will kill you; ignore the taunts."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6n3wRLj8U
Maxwell smiled at this then bent down. His eyes narrowed to a thin bright line that flashed across the edges. He whispered a spell and held his hand close to her face.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAqvaHVcXPI1
The pain was immediate; it wracked through her body. She pushed her nails onto the top of her arm and tried not scream. Only the weak screamed.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAUZgPFWTfoZ
Standing above her, his deranged smile broke into a fissure from the corners of his lips and pulled up his cheeks. He held his spear in both hands, thrusting it for the moral strike. She glared, unflinching.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAvFtKMhjANx
Parcival dashed into Maxwell and struck his leg, slashing a deep cut through the cloth robe. They went rolling onto the ground.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAJfLirQCOYG
Maxwell stood first then punched Parcival in the nose, stunning him. Tears came out of Parcival's eyes, and he cupped his nose, moaning.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAhjX4ljc8tK
Limping, Maxwell slowly backed away then jumped onto his horse as he signaled to the others to follow him.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAB4SxmQaUCg
Casting his gaze at her. "We will finish this later."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAHkGa2vYS8v
Then to Parcival. "You think I'm the evil one? Ask her. Ask her what she's done."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA6hCXngO1tk
Dust filled the air as he and his men faded from view.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANArzkkDp3bZW
"What in heaven's name is going on with you?" Parcival asked.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAQEM77CUfu7
Come home to me vessel. They'll never accept you.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAcNEvN49Dt3
Don't care.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAYvW4786lFZ
You're lying to yourself. Come home. They can't give you the peace that I can.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAcPJAaj2sLr
With that, the vines pulled back into her body.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAKL6ausJShk
" ..... " She closed her eyes. If it thinks I'll cry it's mistaken.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAznOeu6PAJX
Han arched an eyebrow at her. His ears perked up. "Hum."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAV1pGlPeHUn
Han stepped over to Parcival, putting his hand on his nose, then closed his eyes and whispered a prayer. His hands glowed white.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANArwRw3tg2C3
She watched the plume of dust. What if next time-there was little point thinking about it. Do the job and get it done; little else mattered. Her chest tightened again.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA4gtbPV8C4a
She went over to him. "Thank you."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAuKbi7377CO
He nodded. Before he could say anything, she quickly hugged him and let go.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANATb1ChNmN5I
"I need some time alone. I'll meet up with you both later," she said.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAW1VhAPZvE3
"I'll be at the Library they have here. It's not the largest I've seen, but it should be adequate," Parcival said.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA9oHKHeELJJ
She looked over to Han.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANASC9YMba8JO
"And you?"
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAKcr7PiRRaA
"After this day, I think a good stout drink is in order."
1138Please respect copyright.PENANA9AguDS1ntJ
He lit his pipe, turned about towards the town's only inn.
1138Please respect copyright.PENANAWCwY0BJl0g
