A cloaked and quick shadow jumps392Please respect copyright.PENANA20dIsJgoLP
from a dark corner to another; seconds392Please respect copyright.PENANA5SgmDqzhsm
pass and then there it is again, it is very392Please respect copyright.PENANAWN7TWTS0RT
fast, easily as fast as any of them...392Please respect copyright.PENANAIHiZBtZD8G
“Could it be?” mumbled Dhanel Marce392Please respect copyright.PENANA9C1RsRE7A7
as he was the only one keeping his more392Please respect copyright.PENANAW0Fvg7QHee
relaxed approach, while the rest quickly392Please respect copyright.PENANA6NDsMQfIU7
assumed a much more prepared stance.392Please respect copyright.PENANA22Mypatc7J
Harigar Rhim drew his sword as fast as392Please respect copyright.PENANAY3LwgaXxgb
his eyes travelled through that dark, while392Please respect copyright.PENANACUheYGZwgX
standing right next to him, Lorian already392Please respect copyright.PENANAW2dsiQsmha
had his weapon at the ready. Dhanel392Please respect copyright.PENANAVC6gAVCDBt
Marce did not even consider holding392Please respect copyright.PENANARNF4Euq3oP
his blade once. A few more unsettling392Please respect copyright.PENANA8rIm9Ton3m
seconds of silence and then a rising flame392Please respect copyright.PENANAt84SqsM3xy
would lure them into a more open area; it392Please respect copyright.PENANAJFzCHTND1j
is a most familiar flame to some of them,392Please respect copyright.PENANANcLTVCrBGs
even if it is one not seen in quite a while.392Please respect copyright.PENANA8xhw0FV8z7
A peculiar flame, a different kind of392Please respect copyright.PENANAIAnbtgiZfQ
burn, an eternal fire that was hard to392Please respect copyright.PENANAiDdQWAJ59l
earn but worthy to master that currently392Please respect copyright.PENANAZsgwxsoQ3i
inhabits the shapes of an also familiar392Please respect copyright.PENANA6AjUhMgSE0
sword. It is known as the Malaguis Fire,392Please respect copyright.PENANADwIIxXxGR3
for it is named after some sort of ´deity´392Please respect copyright.PENANASJVs8m14sM
worshipped by some elder tribes in the392Please respect copyright.PENANATU9aa4mqbR
eastern depths of the world. Named after392Please respect copyright.PENANAr6KkLKxHzr
such divinity for it is a fire that does not392Please respect copyright.PENANANWVPPdqRZc
hurt its wielder and also never runs out.392Please respect copyright.PENANA3dITkiNmpr
Folklore maybe? Perhaps.392Please respect copyright.PENANABr5KcN3UOg
Regardless, that red glowing stone was392Please respect copyright.PENANASz9F30STlQ
long ago recovered by a couple of young392Please respect copyright.PENANAQk2gYdD0ML
adventurers and once it was confined to392Please respect copyright.PENANAqQFBNWMyiQ
a blade of their choosing, it allowed its392Please respect copyright.PENANArKsP8Gkb09
wielder, after much hardship, to secure392Please respect copyright.PENANAHNIBuFJtQT
himself a great power. Now in front of392Please respect copyright.PENANApSsItUToaB
them, waiting with his back turned, is said392Please respect copyright.PENANArLuulmTiAs
wielder, a large and familiar man to some392Please respect copyright.PENANAbdFQgaJo3d
of them here, for his fire also served the392Please respect copyright.PENANACUP94yyeKX
Hand once.392Please respect copyright.PENANAW18jGEGbYZ
With his back turned to them but in392Please respect copyright.PENANAd1XB3Qa2bu
an inviting manner, as if he was almost392Please respect copyright.PENANA9K8eevIEri
waiting for them, as he too faces that392Please respect copyright.PENANAZPPmAz3eLU
mountain. The fire on his sword burns392Please respect copyright.PENANAo4kfZ75OnW
up one more time as if calling them once392Please respect copyright.PENANAZRZpubXJaZ
again...392Please respect copyright.PENANAy8ZxJ2q6xp
“Red...” said Deena as she slowly puts her weapon to rest. Harigar Rhim also392Please respect copyright.PENANADwbxKFuQe4
sheathed his blade but the remaining two did not. Lorian looked back at Dhanel392Please respect copyright.PENANAidtuNro2DT
Marce, and only after this one nodded did he do the same. Celle however would stay392Please respect copyright.PENANAcnF4cOIkw7
armed and ready.392Please respect copyright.PENANARjmwRWjVvw
“Red…not entirely unexpected I suppose.” Dhanel Marce takes a few steps forward392Please respect copyright.PENANAwQYFTTCYOB
as the hooded figure gently turned around.392Please respect copyright.PENANAEipypvsMKk
He is not wearing any mask. The fire he carries on his back diminished as he took392Please respect copyright.PENANAFMBCbVyAZQ
some steps towards them. Both men met halfway, under rain and lightning, and now392Please respect copyright.PENANANQ3u7VM4qC
fire too; they stared at each other leaving the rest in quiet contemplation. Short words392Please respect copyright.PENANAcrbJDS30zD
were exchanged between them that no one else was able to hear and after that, the two392Please respect copyright.PENANAFonoe2jnQc
approached the rest of them.392Please respect copyright.PENANA9IwQNJkHa5
Greetings took place among the already familiar faces, but they were not overdone.392Please respect copyright.PENANAUAqZdul7GD
