Not really.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllMk69eD5s
And that Red, is how we lost Elistia.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaHu2bGQtU
Red soaked it all in for a short moment, but there was no time for more, as it was417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLRGXtv6WD
now the turn for Harigar Rhim to interrupt...417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgvA9PF6Pr
“Boss!” Dhanel Marce looks at him “We really need to get going now.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKX5vecVgrk
... the sky goes white once again... lightning strikes with the most thunderous of417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIU8ZylYpw6
roars... this time at the very top of the fearful mountain... so hard that they could swear417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0y24wE5bP
some pieces of rock were cleaved right of it...417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgw747NAiXD
“What do you mean get moving?” asked Celle “What about this situation? We are417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRwHNKgLLJ
here brazenly wasting time talking with this riffraff, indulging him instead of coming417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7c1Nm0MZC
to terms with how to handle this. Is any reminder needed that we are on a mission?417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaHt9nrfrZ
Acting on secrecy?”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTzKLAQY1r
“Celle is right.” Deena took up the word “I guess we cannot proceed without417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMtIhuJ5A4
addressing this.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52iXWWbrUV
“Why are you here?” Celle persisted...417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3GolgOLFC
“Red can often be found here.” Deena looked at Dhanel Marce as if asking417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkrKajxTyK
permission to proceed with every word offered “He is originally from this town and417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbMB3ABOcm
more often than not, he comes here to walk these empty streets, so us finding him here417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AQuCBbgQF
tonight is not that out of the ordinary nor coincidental. Ever since tragedy befell this417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYen1eVv9n
place he has been coming here, and none of us has ever asked, as we could understand417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoeB0JsoHa
the reason somewhat.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkFxUQ5qel
Deena continued reluctantly, as she now looked at the red-haired man “Sometimes417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOf3mA26bcE
he would disappear for days and in the end, we would always find him here when duty417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWYkX7bU11
called. It is not that uncanny to find him here tonight. I think none of us is all that417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsimnECz3a
surprised...”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZBeYPFPqO
“Aye, I’ll admit to that.” Harigar Rhim looked at them all, as he scratched the back417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CByo5dBeT
of his head.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxgH0MeLvC
“That may be” Celle took a few steps “but there is still the “detail” of the417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqNVveanum
inconspicuously of our presence here, and this man regardless of his past or bond to417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZEtXBQnxs
any of you, is not with the Hand anymore. He is but a civilian now, and to be treated417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDkm0FMMTM
as such.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyvLO41PG9
“Yeah, that part is also correct,” mumbled Harigar Rhim.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsFPsEqVFt
Dhanel Marce paced back and forth almost like teasing, till he came to a slow stop417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Kbgve2ZvP
and with his back now turned to all of them he asked: “What would you then suggest417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2Uep4wHjJ
Celle?”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdnTd462D8
“We are all aware of our instructions; we are not to be seen under any circumstance417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBkwsBONLk
during our stay in this forsaken area, and if such thing comes to pass then those417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOE5nFQXeW
unfortunate enough to gaze upon us are to be dealt with. To not be left in any condition417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtVvqP0Dqr
where their mouths could tell what their eyes saw. As often must be Sir - the payment417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjKrWAGfJt
of few to keep the many safe.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWW512TLtw
“Are you suggesting then that we should take care of Red right here and now?” asks417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVcDmVJRkH
Harigar Rhim while looking at Dhanel Marce “I doubt he will go down as a civilian,417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUXLPlQxQS
but hey, you have the rank so go on ahead” the black-cloaked swordsman then turns417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyprE40ICqy
his back to Celle and moves closer to Lorian.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WCynH9qYX
“Now this should be something.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtQg231dv6
“This is ridiculous...” Deena exhales “captain?”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhs9l0vDRf
“Our orders were clear were they not? Perhaps they were orders for me alone to417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHl8DSsyTc
carry?” Celle had on her face that typical smug expression of hers, something already417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaiTav4UIY
too familiar to all those inhabiting her circle “I will make sure to bring these issues to417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98XyfbonqC
his majesty more often.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6qVw7q1fv
“You are such a bitch sometimes” Deena spoke openly while Red just stood there,417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI6cv3wPsb
in the middle of the whole scene, surrounded by the five, with Dhanel Marce slightly417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tWUfedmTa
farther away than the rest.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwFppFCZyp
He stood and watched with his feet deeply rooted into that scarred soil, for his eyes417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoUsCdMByW
alone could do all the necessary movements this moment required.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDRUYc6SEk
“You used to serve the Hand, yes?” Celle asked, “So you know how it must go.”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwNI6bQasd
“Impressive.” Red finally said, “You really gobble up all that kingly shit, don’t you?”417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CBE34mnFw
