Ethan - I can't believe the time has finally come. I will avenge my father today. Here it is, Ereadus's castle.384Please respect copyright.PENANA1yoN53rRoZ
384Please respect copyright.PENANAvFrU9m3S0p
Lunadea - It's less creepy than I thought.384Please respect copyright.PENANArXK2brLUKa
384Please respect copyright.PENANAJRUDKa1xrc
Ethan - There he is.384Please respect copyright.PENANAf4r5W5QE9L
384Please respect copyright.PENANAMpL7tmayod
The group reunites at Ereadus's castle, a large, dark castle in the woods. The rain outside made it seem even more foreboding, but the sun was still shining, giving the castle a somewhat normal appearance.384Please respect copyright.PENANAFkCUaq1N7S
384Please respect copyright.PENANA3d0QMzpNyD
Sammy - Took your sweet time getting here.384Please respect copyright.PENANAFl70qDOQh0
384Please respect copyright.PENANAqEzS34wKAA
Lunadea - Do you always have something to say?384Please respect copyright.PENANAAIcHPn8nSy
384Please respect copyright.PENANAP8RbeIrRJf
Sammy - You are a Dämoneneko? Interesting people you gather, Ethan.384Please respect copyright.PENANAFtFuZ9Uysn
384Please respect copyright.PENANAd5JSjLehJq
Lunadea was getting defensive.384Please respect copyright.PENANAt6j3fTreDo
384Please respect copyright.PENANA8ozzzjDBSa
Lunadea - Does that bother you?384Please respect copyright.PENANAY02uZWwQUh
384Please respect copyright.PENANAphLx8y31hU
Sammy, with a dismissive tone, answered384Please respect copyright.PENANAmgCdmUAu1l
384Please respect copyright.PENANARHswD07DV9
Sammy - Bother me? Pfft! I don't care. You could be the Mad King himself, I have no such feelings.384Please respect copyright.PENANAOl4xDFBKQH
384Please respect copyright.PENANAMbAsLkl6Vd
Lunadea, feeling offended, was about to retort, but Dorian intervened.384Please respect copyright.PENANAcPjdNBJwA8
384Please respect copyright.PENANAmjKs2GpyUN
Dorian - It's okay, Luna. Do you want to lead the group Sammy?384Please respect copyright.PENANAwqrejXbna1
384Please respect copyright.PENANAnD8lSMG2H2
Sammy - I'm not exactly a leader, so once we're inside, you guys should probably stay out of my way.384Please respect copyright.PENANAYWJqP0KTGh
384Please respect copyright.PENANAqe2GxeUqNO
Ethan - We'll just have to be on our guard. Let's go inside.384Please respect copyright.PENANAoUYQF3dbNi
384Please respect copyright.PENANAJEDfmVaMyR
The group agrees and opens the castle doors. When they enter, they see a bunch of undead bodies destroyed on the ground.384Please respect copyright.PENANApeMWSirhof
384Please respect copyright.PENANAHtvhBAYni3
Dorian - What happened here?384Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1klIxDMUb
384Please respect copyright.PENANAa5cHfgZv50
Sammy - Looks like there was some fighting here already. Maybe someone else decided to help the kid?384Please respect copyright.PENANA6nc6xrnu6K
384Please respect copyright.PENANAcNrIfO6Ogk
Ethan - That's not possible. Nobody else knew about the kid.384Please respect copyright.PENANAU51L0OUOhe
384Please respect copyright.PENANATcgScqwYTI
Lunadea - Maybe the mother took matters into her own hands?384Please respect copyright.PENANAojii3uwxRF
384Please respect copyright.PENANANpiw8DZymW
Ethan - I doubt it...384Please respect copyright.PENANAmfd78rkLBB
384Please respect copyright.PENANABilIDT0mlS
As they continue walking, a trapdoor suddenly opens beneath their feet and they all fall into a pit that is about five meters deep, except for Sammy, who managed to turn into smoke at the sound of the trapdoor.384Please respect copyright.PENANAIqBo3yBJtK
384Please respect copyright.PENANApH37XRODEg
Sammy - Looks like you guys are in a pickle.384Please respect copyright.PENANA46LF9KJAN4
384Please respect copyright.PENANAYIgmUHMwiH
Ethan - Are you guys okay?384Please respect copyright.PENANAUiDnML7QkQ
384Please respect copyright.PENANAH5S1mOadS3
Dorian - I'm okay, Luna?384Please respect copyright.PENANAU6FanvJT3P
384Please respect copyright.PENANAnXFIuCNTps
Lunadea - I'm fine, don't worry about me.384Please respect copyright.PENANAVrCZFgRCyX
384Please respect copyright.PENANANgcoVYUrRg
Ethan - Sammy, can you see anything that could help us?384Please respect copyright.PENANAuCqOl8VEn6
384Please respect copyright.PENANATIHPML9Yu2
Sammy - Not really. And to be honest, it's not my problem. I told you guys to worry about yourselves, and within the first two minutes of our 'adventure', you get trapped. I'll be leaving now. Have fun.384Please respect copyright.PENANAZMli8lDf6q
384Please respect copyright.PENANAohhTSGVtqo
Lunadea - You can't do that, you jerk! Hey!384Please respect copyright.PENANAiolpz8oiLW
384Please respect copyright.PENANAvTVKd7XqVC
Dorian - Leave it, Luna... we need to figure out how to get out of here.384Please respect copyright.PENANAjGySSMQa8j
384Please respect copyright.PENANASiyMZZjzom
Ethan - I'm sorry, guys. It's my fault. I shouldn't have trusted that guy.384Please respect copyright.PENANAILlzZftvvZ
384Please respect copyright.PENANAl4Z7LNz7VG
Lunadea - It's not your fault, Ethan. Damn it!384Please respect copyright.PENANASe5r0elCfO
384Please respect copyright.PENANAUIsTAVovO7
As Sammy sprints down the dimly lit corridor. He knows that he is running out of time to rescue the kid, and the thought of failure weighs heavy on his mind. But then he sees it - a glint of silver in the distance. He approaches the door and notices the intricate engravings that adorn its surface. Once he opens the door he is greeted by the sound of rattling bones.384Please respect copyright.PENANADWi70q5GE2
384Please respect copyright.PENANAYYZ4qMwj8W
Sammy reacts before the skeletons lunge at him. He quickly disappears in a cloud of smoke, narrowly avoiding the blades as they swing through the air where he once stood. When he reappears, he unwraps a little bit of his chain and whips them both really fast, his movements precise and efficient.384Please respect copyright.PENANAhLgCe1w8OP
384Please respect copyright.PENANAKVNiRkWHqT
With the threat dealt with, Sammy takes a moment to survey the room. It's massive, with high ceilings and a feeling of emptiness that seems to echo through the space. There's not much in the room, just a large bed in the center and a bookshelf against the wall. Strangely, there are no windows in the room - it's as if it was built to be completely sealed off from the outside world. As he looks around, a soft voice speaks from a dark corner of the room.384Please respect copyright.PENANA4a10vmA537
384Please respect copyright.PENANAX4KN5LrQCn
Mangetsu - Ehm, Mister?384Please respect copyright.PENANAd4bkrJHTqe
384Please respect copyright.PENANAqGi3LJy4SF
Sammy readies his chain, prepared to strike whoever is lurking in the corner.384Please respect copyright.PENANAruWhMNZb4Q
384Please respect copyright.PENANAbdo7BtC9nP
Sammy - Who goes there?384Please respect copyright.PENANA0OJzFjlPxG
384Please respect copyright.PENANAdDvCPwGYrv
Mangetsu - I'm Mangetsu! What's your name?384Please respect copyright.PENANAKq3c9SYsRn
384Please respect copyright.PENANAkEmgCPZmO7
Mangetsu steps out of the shadows, a friendly smile on her face as she cradles a guitar in her arms. Sammy notices that she is just a little girl, but he doesn't let his guard down.384Please respect copyright.PENANAsFe4uDisMz
384Please respect copyright.PENANAaKlKbU77FL
Sammy - Why are you in this castle?384Please respect copyright.PENANAOvQGTKTuI7
384Please respect copyright.PENANAOH1l4CmmFn
Mangetsu - This is my home!384Please respect copyright.PENANA7VvpMMm8kS
384Please respect copyright.PENANAsOIlUwFj27
Sammy - So you're Ereadus's daughter?384Please respect copyright.PENANAQeLQiMmjzK
384Please respect copyright.PENANAQZBRXdgrBY
Mangetsu - You know my dad?384Please respect copyright.PENANAkpmiI5n7th
384Please respect copyright.PENANAQFuIYHXFLS
Sammy - Not really, but I'd love to meet him. Do you know where he is?384Please respect copyright.PENANA0YaA4eH8MB
384Please respect copyright.PENANAKjVYE47GFQ
Mangetsu - Probably in his lab.384Please respect copyright.PENANADzzC0AhCIV
384Please respect copyright.PENANAh06FY1kthq
Sammy - Do you know where that is?384Please respect copyright.PENANA58XAP5ZhT7
384Please respect copyright.PENANA0um8G3ZXT8
Mangetsu - No, my dad doesn't tell me much. Actually, he doesn't talk to me much at all384Please respect copyright.PENANA5VAEsTXR12
384Please respect copyright.PENANAUl6LnONxy5
Sammy - I'm sure it must be hard for you, being a princess in a castle.384Please respect copyright.PENANA6cMPm6HwnS
384Please respect copyright.PENANAtsDQt0MtJx
Sammy says in a sarcastic tone.384Please respect copyright.PENANAxI2sssShc1
384Please respect copyright.PENANAIxQoouBggf
Mangetsu just smiles at him.384Please respect copyright.PENANAqhHWShbHh0
384Please respect copyright.PENANAKj6xnH2sXd
Mangetsu - No, really! I have all of them keeping me company.384Please respect copyright.PENANAV9jrBvAWG7
384Please respect copyright.PENANA8wgUvoEjNs
Sammy - All... of them?384Please respect copyright.PENANALcC63QncGj
384Please respect copyright.PENANAvsgzl51Wsh
Mangetsu - Yes! I see all kinds of people around me! But only I can see them. It's my gift, dad says.384Please respect copyright.PENANAwF4CrUwza2
384Please respect copyright.PENANA42X5Y7pUtK
Sammy - Did you summon those skeletons too?384Please respect copyright.PENANA06HYmbDJzD
384Please respect copyright.PENANAXq8wAzsHgZ
Mangetsu - No, no. I can't do things like my dad. I just see them, and they're more human.384Please respect copyright.PENANA0RZPqpo8Gp
384Please respect copyright.PENANAf5KYNVax8H
Sammy - Okay, Mangetsu, you're coming with me!384Please respect copyright.PENANAbPmldLfZJV
384Please respect copyright.PENANADACIO7QoI9
Mangetsu - I can't, mister. I'm really sorry...but I can't walk anywhere else except my room and the dining hall.384Please respect copyright.PENANAtBD8JbwpKo
384Please respect copyright.PENANAIcdrI5q25p
Sammy - I'm sure you'll be fine. I need to speak with your dad and you're going to help me find him.384Please respect copyright.PENANAFufPvQJ3cz
384Please respect copyright.PENANAB3pEIweJd3
Meanwhile, in the pit:384Please respect copyright.PENANA1JX0flNK7N
384Please respect copyright.PENANAjJs3DAdztJ
Dorian - I'm not!384Please respect copyright.PENANA61JpBRgH30
384Please respect copyright.PENANAqgcjpYfNcH
Lunadea - Dorina? Are you ok?384Please respect copyright.PENANA4RBrogGKfD
384Please respect copyright.PENANAFuoPzvCoU3
Dorian - We need to find a way out of here.384Please respect copyright.PENANAeZzPQt8Tzy
384Please respect copyright.PENANAoOxIsq0ZmO
Ethan - Climb on my shoulders, I'll throw you both out.384Please respect copyright.PENANATzSm1Ge0Ue
384Please respect copyright.PENANAKWR5sMN8ZX
Lunadea - You want us to leave you here?384Please respect copyright.PENANAqKMqVmfzrW
384Please respect copyright.PENANA5tzOK5PAZX
Ethan - We don't have a choice. Sammy doesn't know, but he won't be able to defeat Ereadus on his own. You guys need to help him.384Please respect copyright.PENANA0pLbhAUGwT
384Please respect copyright.PENANA0BgidNBV8e
Dorian - We're not leaving you here, Ethan. And Sammy can wait. He got himself into this situation.384Please respect copyright.PENANAiofLVOOLte
384Please respect copyright.PENANAae7Rax96L2
Ethan - Please don't be too hard on Sammy. He's actually a good guy with a tough act.384Please respect copyright.PENANAySOlLUpqu7
384Please respect copyright.PENANAA6VpNTiNUA
Suddenly, they hear a voice from above.384Please respect copyright.PENANALZbxG2Wlop
384Please respect copyright.PENANA21qeuCfJBk
Guard 1 - Captain?384Please respect copyright.PENANAZ41gARg2sc
384Please respect copyright.PENANAoJWchIQX2P
Ethan - Rolfd?384Please respect copyright.PENANAj5oz8LdtQj
384Please respect copyright.PENANAl2d6Iyotkv
Rolfd - Captain! Thank god we found you!384Please respect copyright.PENANARPnhlWi3X9
384Please respect copyright.PENANAsSfJ4Ga5wJ
Ethan - What are you guys doing here?384Please respect copyright.PENANAKstYR2PRZN
384Please respect copyright.PENANAS0GnjxnV5i
Rolfd - The village is under attack by the undead. Our fighters are trying to hold them off, but there are too many of them. The mayor sent us to ask for assistance from the captain.384Please respect copyright.PENANAmzE1S1R7z2
384Please respect copyright.PENANAstj1EuHStO
Ethan - Quick, go find some rope and get us out of here. I'll head back to the village and help out.384Please respect copyright.PENANALA4xXlkXHV
384Please respect copyright.PENANA0T85r5BSjs
Deep underground in the castle, Ereadus's lab is bustling with activity. He is working on a body, but he is not alone. Behind him stands a beautiful young woman with long, flowing black hair, dark eyes, and olive skin. In her hand, she holds a jar of sand.384Please respect copyright.PENANAgyiLMuMTfU
384Please respect copyright.PENANAETkdpwclAi
Ereadus looks up at her.384Please respect copyright.PENANAf9KiXyFmiY
384Please respect copyright.PENANABuPO9L5kft
Ereadus - It seems there are other people trying to enter my castle. They're not as smart as you. At least you didn't fall for the first trap.384Please respect copyright.PENANAdQb8LyHlF5
384Please respect copyright.PENANAC3CD03TxrF
Girl - Answer my question.384Please respect copyright.PENANAhFgwcR8YRp
384Please respect copyright.PENANAxvZtm7UoOd
Ereadus - You're pretty skilled, killed all my minions until now. But are you sure you can talk to me like that? What was your name again, little girl?384Please respect copyright.PENANANXQstkmGEX
384Please respect copyright.PENANAtTw57rY5WD
Analissa glares at him.384Please respect copyright.PENANAJcOuM33TQ1
384Please respect copyright.PENANAxAesMMhyys
Analissa - It's Analissa, and please don't waste my time. I kill your minions because they attacked me384Please respect copyright.PENANAQoeObTOaJJ
384Please respect copyright.PENANA3J16pAqchl
Ereadus - Yes, yes. You have a prince in that jar, huh? What magic sealed him?384Please respect copyright.PENANAaRlPgtFIVI
384Please respect copyright.PENANA0kywFoTeQ0
Analissa - That is not of your concern.384Please respect copyright.PENANAcZZ0B9834D
384Please respect copyright.PENANAAuAPT02mm8
Ereadus - But it is. You come to me, asking for my help. I need to know what sealed him in order to release him.384Please respect copyright.PENANAgQbLkq46i7
384Please respect copyright.PENANASaQMY18DqA
Analissa - Engenshi magic.384Please respect copyright.PENANAEehVUfGjEb
384Please respect copyright.PENANA2ESPYBNKHr
Ereadus's eyes widen in surprise.384Please respect copyright.PENANAtmyQrYW1IF
384Please respect copyright.PENANA0oZwLbDZzP
Ereadus - Engenshi? Why would one of 'them' seal away your prince?384Please respect copyright.PENANA5nCHl4ghP9
384Please respect copyright.PENANAxY9RgHdbpk
Analissa - My prince rebelled against the king... He sent his kind to fight us.384Please respect copyright.PENANAY0YLQuMMCa
384Please respect copyright.PENANAfKHfNOohki
Ereadus - I heard about a rebelion but that was years ago, i was a kid when that happend. You probably wasent even born. Are you telling me this prince of yours is more than 50 years old?384Please respect copyright.PENANAS744f3raH7
384Please respect copyright.PENANAj3Hd9PzB5Q
Analissa - I've had enough! I'm leaving.384Please respect copyright.PENANAn1wlQSu7cH
384Please respect copyright.PENANAcIHUOeMihA
Ereadus - Wait! I can release your prince.384Please respect copyright.PENANAC9AxiXZoUn
384Please respect copyright.PENANABfjf7KvkP7
Sammy and Mangetsu continue walking through the corridors, searching for Ereadus's lab. Mangetsu looks nervous384Please respect copyright.PENANAywODOGhImw
384Please respect copyright.PENANAeeYx0AYbMC
Mangetsu - I really shouldn't be here, mister. My dad doesn't like it when I escape my room.384Please respect copyright.PENANABaBND9DMdk
384Please respect copyright.PENANA2fIcR5j4RC
Sammy - Your dad isn't the best, is he?384Please respect copyright.PENANAiIQYRebqUv
384Please respect copyright.PENANAggClovhGAa
Mangetsu - I wouldn't know. The only people I've met are you and the two other people in the woods the other night.384Please respect copyright.PENANAoFOYqF1VEJ
384Please respect copyright.PENANA5pzZ7pRsDk
Sammy points to a dark door leading to the basement.384Please respect copyright.PENANAaQ4ROu4IHE
384Please respect copyright.PENANAQe4204W592
Sammy - A little bit cliche for a dark lab, don't you think, Ereadus?.384Please respect copyright.PENANAqClHQowCZ9
384Please respect copyright.PENANAzVTBt7fBy0
Mangetsu - I can't go in there384Please respect copyright.PENANAKBWDhP3RUa
384Please respect copyright.PENANAal580NtGe7
Mangetsu's face is full of fear and her body starts trembling. Sweat runs down her face.384Please respect copyright.PENANAtGVgd5GUE4
384Please respect copyright.PENANAZM7qgW674p
Sammy - Hey, hey, look at me. I can't imagine what happened to you, but I promise nothing is going to happen to you down there. I promise this nightmare stops right now. Let's go, and stay close.384Please respect copyright.PENANAqBemIGsEpQ
384Please respect copyright.PENANAjqIkBqpYB2
He starts heading towards the lab, but Mangetsu doesn't move. She's too afraid. Sammy turns to her and looks her directly in the eyes.384Please respect copyright.PENANAmg1czvQH0F
384Please respect copyright.PENANAhzrbeG8JsZ
Sammy - Whatever happens, stay close to me. I will protect you, okay?384Please respect copyright.PENANAIjnsmt6Yot
384Please respect copyright.PENANAwnNvn1PjfY
Mangetsu - Okay...384Please respect copyright.PENANAf6wmRLzBCZ
384Please respect copyright.PENANAWJ2UgatXnR
Ereadus examines the jar.384Please respect copyright.PENANAKdLB5IQeM1
384Please respect copyright.PENANAul857qIIbb
Ereadus - It's going to be hard, since it's an Engenshi seal. But I might know someone who knows a little bit more about that. I just need to summon her.384Please respect copyright.PENANAZCk6cQFzoX
384Please respect copyright.PENANAQJWFm1XKgz
Analissa - What's the price?384Please respect copyright.PENANAjzEnxwnYD9
384Please respect copyright.PENANAzJxw12U1dt
Ereadus smiles.384Please respect copyright.PENANATOUwSVb2hy
384Please respect copyright.PENANADJd1qa8iP8
Ereadus - Price? Of course. Well, if I'm able to unseal your prince, I will find out where he failed. You see, he and I have the same ambition. The price will be you and him working with me to finally kill the king.384Please respect copyright.PENANAElh9fkMt2A
384Please respect copyright.PENANAeMQLT66eRR
Analissa - You're really as mad as they say you are if you think you can kill the king.384Please respect copyright.PENANAVdXuS3ZlYL
384Please respect copyright.PENANA21cPuVw0xM
Ereadus - They called me mad when I didn't have magic. Look at me now. But I see that this conversation has to be stopped for a while. Sammy! What are you doing here? I told you I can't bring her back.384Please respect copyright.PENANAtYGfxJjhbC
384Please respect copyright.PENANAYW7v6GT0i7
Sammy steps forward, his chain at the ready.384Please respect copyright.PENANAji0gQsSy2K
384Please respect copyright.PENANAwlpUy5SKL1
Sammy - Shut your mouth. I need the girl, Ereadus.384Please respect copyright.PENANAUK65UR06qo
384Please respect copyright.PENANAMCs8UJECig
Ereadus's eyes widen in shock384Please respect copyright.PENANAbaxQpKVHHG
384Please respect copyright.PENANAyVJKaIgEnT
Ereadus - Mangetsu... What is the meaning of this?!384Please respect copyright.PENANAOnSK0wljaz
384Please respect copyright.PENANA8J3R7FjiPG
Mangetsu looks down at the ground, her hands shaking.384Please respect copyright.PENANAoq4SZkUOBZ
384Please respect copyright.PENANAmN95ZbKCgv
Mangetsu - Sorry! I'm sorry! I'll go back to my room right now.384Please respect copyright.PENANAW13EhcSE55
384Please respect copyright.PENANAhIhwMmi6Y4
Sammy - You stay here. I'm telling you one more time. Give me back the little girl you took from the village.384Please respect copyright.PENANASm4INoR58m
384Please respect copyright.PENANA22FZGibpFH
Ereadus's expression turns dark.384Please respect copyright.PENANAhAshI7zeLx
384Please respect copyright.PENANAwmVgq35Tfx
Ereadus - Which part? But don't worry about that. You saw my daughter, Sammy. That makes me really mad. I'll deal with you later, Mangetsu. You! You want your prince back? Bring me that guy's head.384Please respect copyright.PENANAg6QR9e1Tnr
384Please respect copyright.PENANAVj0ZwLh5C2
Sammy and Analissa stand face to face, ready for whatever happens next.
