Not really.347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSADhoRZYfP
And that Red, is how we lost Elistia.”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyh7zVZsBty
Red soaked it all in for a short moment, but there was no time for more, as it was347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuNzXU11Bk
now the turn for Harigar Rhim to interrupt...347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UEfVZVapD
“Boss!” Dhanel Marce looks at him “We really need to get going now.”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVkxUQuOYP
... the sky goes white once again... lightning strikes with the most thunderous of347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQabSqs2WUp
roars... this time at the very top of the fearful mountain... so hard that they could swear347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5R2v2Tyv7
some pieces of rock were cleaved right of it...347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDwG7vHgfs
“What do you mean get moving?” asked Celle “What about this situation? We are347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1MSRLIBO3
here brazenly wasting time talking with this riffraff, indulging him instead of coming347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwdDIxehiR
to terms with how to handle this. Is any reminder needed that we are on a mission?347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99WMU04819
Acting on secrecy?”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCU1eCrZZP
“Celle is right.” Deena took up the word “I guess we cannot proceed without347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgifks0OLM
addressing this.”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0fjmWhe9p
“Why are you here?” Celle persisted...347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipyp41zWof
“Red can often be found here.” Deena looked at Dhanel Marce as if asking347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQ0ku1Jns5
permission to proceed with every word offered “He is originally from this town and347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3sejzbVIJ
more often than not, he comes here to walk these empty streets, so us finding him here347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrnEdTcOh9
tonight is not that out of the ordinary nor coincidental. Ever since tragedy befell this347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlNWAxMDrb
place he has been coming here, and none of us has ever asked, as we could understand347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIea8BHiN0
the reason somewhat.”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdA4gjVSMdf
Deena continued reluctantly, as she now looked at the red-haired man “Sometimes347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ao25XaFqA
he would disappear for days and in the end, we would always find him here when duty347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPN4URadpM
called. It is not that uncanny to find him here tonight. I think none of us is all that347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjGwwQsEzU
surprised...”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIY8TNqLAVr
“Aye, I’ll admit to that.” Harigar Rhim looked at them all, as he scratched the back347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbzBXQBTeJ
of his head.347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyjKbwxj5c
“That may be” Celle took a few steps “but there is still the “detail” of the347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmIFiDHYNG
inconspicuously of our presence here, and this man regardless of his past or bond to347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROz2dSpykM
any of you, is not with the Hand anymore. He is but a civilian now, and to be treated347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIciMYv1gm
as such.”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgHBGuvM3P
“Yeah, that part is also correct,” mumbled Harigar Rhim.347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOCtvyWCAV
Dhanel Marce paced back and forth almost like teasing, till he came to a slow stop347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKL7pTOIE84
and with his back now turned to all of them he asked: “What would you then suggest347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrFD8R77xO
Celle?”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPcrHnGwrq
“We are all aware of our instructions; we are not to be seen under any circumstance347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTZZBptsFq
during our stay in this forsaken area, and if such thing comes to pass then those347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYK4auOBrnG
unfortunate enough to gaze upon us are to be dealt with. To not be left in any condition347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9ioBe6M93
where their mouths could tell what their eyes saw. As often must be Sir - the payment347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqDR1LgqQV
of few to keep the many safe.”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbREot5UNwn
“Are you suggesting then that we should take care of Red right here and now?” asks347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEflbNxunB
Harigar Rhim while looking at Dhanel Marce “I doubt he will go down as a civilian,347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zHyNpSAhj
but hey, you have the rank so go on ahead” the black-cloaked swordsman then turns347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1qWQAukFJ
his back to Celle and moves closer to Lorian.347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Hba3P6ntJ
“Now this should be something.”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpgAsEF9Ei
“This is ridiculous...” Deena exhales “captain?”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQ5YJV6g5r
“Our orders were clear were they not? Perhaps they were orders for me alone to347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FLenX1B07
carry?” Celle had on her face that typical smug expression of hers, something already347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8zcumJM9B
too familiar to all those inhabiting her circle “I will make sure to bring these issues to347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4gdbLZSg4
his majesty more often.”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcPowm0JNL
“You are such a bitch sometimes” Deena spoke openly while Red just stood there,347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7gu6UiNKq
in the middle of the whole scene, surrounded by the five, with Dhanel Marce slightly347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrF9W5CXCKu
farther away than the rest.347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwF9KUPrd1
He stood and watched with his feet deeply rooted into that scarred soil, for his eyes347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsY3qz3ZoIG
alone could do all the necessary movements this moment required.347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cnOxF5UAx
“You used to serve the Hand, yes?” Celle asked, “So you know how it must go.”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXgxI63f8X
“Impressive.” Red finally said, “You really gobble up all that kingly shit, don’t you?”347Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtEAbDDlup
