fast, easily as fast as any of them...399Please respect copyright.PENANAVgs7TkVzbW
“Could it be?” mumbled Dhanel Marce399Please respect copyright.PENANATEmbUTqb7b
as he was the only one keeping his more399Please respect copyright.PENANAzAmE2EisUQ
relaxed approach, while the rest quickly399Please respect copyright.PENANA1SztRm9uXI
assumed a much more prepared stance.399Please respect copyright.PENANA24XDgEViZm
Harigar Rhim drew his sword as fast as399Please respect copyright.PENANAHRiY0c2BNL
his eyes travelled through that dark, while399Please respect copyright.PENANALK04Gl9jDJ
standing right next to him, Lorian already399Please respect copyright.PENANA10OU1ksGe6
had his weapon at the ready. Dhanel399Please respect copyright.PENANAN3hixPAEbO
Marce did not even consider holding399Please respect copyright.PENANAqdzS1Zeqo0
his blade once. A few more unsettling399Please respect copyright.PENANA1xRBRuHVdk
seconds of silence and then a rising flame399Please respect copyright.PENANAgWGLsPOBj8
would lure them into a more open area; it399Please respect copyright.PENANAh81MPyD50k
is a most familiar flame to some of them,399Please respect copyright.PENANAQd46Kho9nA
even if it is one not seen in quite a while.399Please respect copyright.PENANAufDrcPu6UZ
A peculiar flame, a different kind of399Please respect copyright.PENANAxaJvgEJN3v
burn, an eternal fire that was hard to399Please respect copyright.PENANAyUImlxxP53
earn but worthy to master that currently399Please respect copyright.PENANAyEumOhD3vq
inhabits the shapes of an also familiar399Please respect copyright.PENANAYSytRgd1Gy
sword. It is known as the Malaguis Fire,399Please respect copyright.PENANAan19q7GX62
for it is named after some sort of ´deity´399Please respect copyright.PENANA7JGnLTDv6X
worshipped by some elder tribes in the399Please respect copyright.PENANAJQrTxny9lb
eastern depths of the world. Named after399Please respect copyright.PENANAt6GVzMofs1
such divinity for it is a fire that does not399Please respect copyright.PENANA2dwogwR1LN
hurt its wielder and also never runs out.399Please respect copyright.PENANAYzZCnyN23R
Folklore maybe? Perhaps.399Please respect copyright.PENANAZFAQ0XG4r3
Regardless, that red glowing stone was399Please respect copyright.PENANAv4LihWlZsO
long ago recovered by a couple of young399Please respect copyright.PENANAREw08iI7Dn
adventurers and once it was confined to399Please respect copyright.PENANAM5V5wJLN9b
a blade of their choosing, it allowed its399Please respect copyright.PENANA9lvjiNM0gU

himself a great power. Now in front of399Please respect copyright.PENANAO1Mp8jYmnX

of them here, for his fire also served the399Please respect copyright.PENANAuBbK0sdtTb
Hand once.399Please respect copyright.PENANAXUbd95p2O5
With his back turned to them but in399Please respect copyright.PENANAeO6gF6vJvF
an inviting manner, as if he was almost399Please respect copyright.PENANACsjc9SShvt
waiting for them, as he too faces that399Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9pEqs29IX
mountain. The fire on his sword burns399Please respect copyright.PENANA5h8d7AbZA8
up one more time as if calling them once399Please respect copyright.PENANANnoXtFNsDp
again...399Please respect copyright.PENANAwcDBPalk0p
“Red...” said Deena as she slowly puts her weapon to rest. Harigar Rhim also399Please respect copyright.PENANAO9t0FjtgB8
sheathed his blade but the remaining two did not. Lorian looked back at Dhanel399Please respect copyright.PENANA4aS4hl6m83
Marce, and only after this one nodded did he do the same. Celle however would stay399Please respect copyright.PENANAheI8MnXYBA
armed and ready.399Please respect copyright.PENANApEXu7e7hPn
“Red…not entirely unexpected I suppose.” Dhanel Marce takes a few steps forward399Please respect copyright.PENANAXaF0Uxc9Mp
as the hooded figure gently turned around.399Please respect copyright.PENANAYqmaGT44CH
He is not wearing any mask. The fire he carries on his back diminished as he took399Please respect copyright.PENANAsMpNguFld3
some steps towards them. Both men met halfway, under rain and lightning, and now399Please respect copyright.PENANAIT8sxLWt38
fire too; they stared at each other leaving the rest in quiet contemplation. Short words399Please respect copyright.PENANAH1SLm6Mfbn
were exchanged between them that no one else was able to hear and after that, the two399Please respect copyright.PENANAUKVOQGjvkb
approached the rest of them.399Please respect copyright.PENANA90DoTiDuta
Greetings took place among the already familiar faces, but they were not overdone.399Please respect copyright.PENANAT32AS6Z7Id
