Not really.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtIuAzxwCY
And that Red, is how we lost Elistia.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLcZ4S0jJ1
Red soaked it all in for a short moment, but there was no time for more, as it was417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0f28WMWGO
now the turn for Harigar Rhim to interrupt...417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQThXWMBzos
“Boss!” Dhanel Marce looks at him “We really need to get going now.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJquaAXjys
... the sky goes white once again... lightning strikes with the most thunderous of417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU39mLPIUs6
roars... this time at the very top of the fearful mountain... so hard that they could swear417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztk9VEwb6d
some pieces of rock were cleaved right of it...417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe45RthwAXT
“What do you mean get moving?” asked Celle “What about this situation? We are417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YepUTMLov
here brazenly wasting time talking with this riffraff, indulging him instead of coming417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AZ5TvHTuH
to terms with how to handle this. Is any reminder needed that we are on a mission?417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeA1sm1UN4
Acting on secrecy?”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XI7U62mcY
“Celle is right.” Deena took up the word “I guess we cannot proceed without417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5t1UmdYv0
addressing this.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpfDQBYDdy
“Why are you here?” Celle persisted...417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcEkuYvxEA
“Red can often be found here.” Deena looked at Dhanel Marce as if asking417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOfCb6OBCS
permission to proceed with every word offered “He is originally from this town and417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mZ8rNGzpi
more often than not, he comes here to walk these empty streets, so us finding him here417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41C6YNopFl
tonight is not that out of the ordinary nor coincidental. Ever since tragedy befell this417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyF8aSJV8c
place he has been coming here, and none of us has ever asked, as we could understand417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmLWfah3wD
the reason somewhat.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsSq3pGLDS
Deena continued reluctantly, as she now looked at the red-haired man “Sometimes417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6J3l5zHDAh
he would disappear for days and in the end, we would always find him here when duty417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gEqG7cKdI
called. It is not that uncanny to find him here tonight. I think none of us is all that417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yeOpe1IEe
surprised...”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSewcl72ajj
“Aye, I’ll admit to that.” Harigar Rhim looked at them all, as he scratched the back417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkBjQTQQZG
of his head.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnobZ290bYI
“That may be” Celle took a few steps “but there is still the “detail” of the417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvhOQp1Zdx
inconspicuously of our presence here, and this man regardless of his past or bond to417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmq2gWrYD8p
any of you, is not with the Hand anymore. He is but a civilian now, and to be treated417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2NNKNItj6
as such.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNoQl7KrGh
“Yeah, that part is also correct,” mumbled Harigar Rhim.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpBiJTg6VQ
Dhanel Marce paced back and forth almost like teasing, till he came to a slow stop417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjFiGoULji
and with his back now turned to all of them he asked: “What would you then suggest417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJz18ScgBgp
Celle?”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEQlZOPhOm
“We are all aware of our instructions; we are not to be seen under any circumstance417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOo2DF4LIc
during our stay in this forsaken area, and if such thing comes to pass then those417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQPhJLCbpS
unfortunate enough to gaze upon us are to be dealt with. To not be left in any condition417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJy4KRJHJRr
where their mouths could tell what their eyes saw. As often must be Sir - the payment417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMXQ3ngGzK
of few to keep the many safe.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQjjTMbRAB
“Are you suggesting then that we should take care of Red right here and now?” asks417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuH6a50v9D8
Harigar Rhim while looking at Dhanel Marce “I doubt he will go down as a civilian,417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4n6NCPjt5
but hey, you have the rank so go on ahead” the black-cloaked swordsman then turns417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslYHUuSzf2
his back to Celle and moves closer to Lorian.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvr6Pdxc9m7
“Now this should be something.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzwOnpP0eS
“This is ridiculous...” Deena exhales “captain?”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGMNBHlRZl
“Our orders were clear were they not? Perhaps they were orders for me alone to417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq62XiRg1Fg
carry?” Celle had on her face that typical smug expression of hers, something already417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1l85hI3Jyw
too familiar to all those inhabiting her circle “I will make sure to bring these issues to417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8Euykj5ZD
his majesty more often.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7BfUsUKvZ
“You are such a bitch sometimes” Deena spoke openly while Red just stood there,417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmibD297xg
in the middle of the whole scene, surrounded by the five, with Dhanel Marce slightly417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKo8FJxOXwe
farther away than the rest.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkF2kD2Ai7
He stood and watched with his feet deeply rooted into that scarred soil, for his eyes417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZicqNIvoRd
alone could do all the necessary movements this moment required.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmn1CiayO8v
“You used to serve the Hand, yes?” Celle asked, “So you know how it must go.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkOMddjek3
“Impressive.” Red finally said, “You really gobble up all that kingly shit, don’t you?”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDk0hedkNF
