Not really.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehqkiZLAiR
And that Red, is how we lost Elistia.”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8Upvgv0rj
Red soaked it all in for a short moment, but there was no time for more, as it was416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCZBfNLPsF
now the turn for Harigar Rhim to interrupt...416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ7eqMYV7j
“Boss!” Dhanel Marce looks at him “We really need to get going now.”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkY7cHdX0Xk
... the sky goes white once again... lightning strikes with the most thunderous of416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVwkl9Aqku
roars... this time at the very top of the fearful mountain... so hard that they could swear416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegcHpjXQQv
some pieces of rock were cleaved right of it...416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalXWP70aWv
“What do you mean get moving?” asked Celle “What about this situation? We are416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfZfb58z0k
here brazenly wasting time talking with this riffraff, indulging him instead of coming416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV95ETgUraO
to terms with how to handle this. Is any reminder needed that we are on a mission?416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfFhfEogax
Acting on secrecy?”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezbLgd4XCK
“Celle is right.” Deena took up the word “I guess we cannot proceed without416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmp1nR2iqw1
addressing this.”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrVsMdC82c
“Why are you here?” Celle persisted...416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSM8NmVGBQb
“Red can often be found here.” Deena looked at Dhanel Marce as if asking416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mHEH7sz6d
permission to proceed with every word offered “He is originally from this town and416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7HX01oJOM
more often than not, he comes here to walk these empty streets, so us finding him here416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcd2326oYzo
tonight is not that out of the ordinary nor coincidental. Ever since tragedy befell this416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMav5wOOpok
place he has been coming here, and none of us has ever asked, as we could understand416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEc0FtRzIIA
the reason somewhat.”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIX9Np3oNx
Deena continued reluctantly, as she now looked at the red-haired man “Sometimes416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyfifuApJF
he would disappear for days and in the end, we would always find him here when duty416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoOXjBSumn
called. It is not that uncanny to find him here tonight. I think none of us is all that416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGERzAIHhzh
surprised...”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgRG7ngbwo
“Aye, I’ll admit to that.” Harigar Rhim looked at them all, as he scratched the back416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKw0DjDeILu
of his head.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1ixTPQto2
“That may be” Celle took a few steps “but there is still the “detail” of the416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlj1wWUudU
inconspicuously of our presence here, and this man regardless of his past or bond to416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1AIGCcbC7
any of you, is not with the Hand anymore. He is but a civilian now, and to be treated416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcJG1ErTlj
as such.”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gvwjbSB1I
“Yeah, that part is also correct,” mumbled Harigar Rhim.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiqzRTPlOn
Dhanel Marce paced back and forth almost like teasing, till he came to a slow stop416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoX3RN2VI4
and with his back now turned to all of them he asked: “What would you then suggest416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwbAzdSh8s
Celle?”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6IvzRrkMA
“We are all aware of our instructions; we are not to be seen under any circumstance416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuQNfYO0tE
during our stay in this forsaken area, and if such thing comes to pass then those416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N0OMAPF6t
unfortunate enough to gaze upon us are to be dealt with. To not be left in any condition416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycnEgDBTOn
where their mouths could tell what their eyes saw. As often must be Sir - the payment416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkWLKFHo9M
of few to keep the many safe.”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kQxeovKOa
“Are you suggesting then that we should take care of Red right here and now?” asks416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeG6f4GZ3Xh
Harigar Rhim while looking at Dhanel Marce “I doubt he will go down as a civilian,416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOJettzq25
but hey, you have the rank so go on ahead” the black-cloaked swordsman then turns416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrbFiDBUf4
his back to Celle and moves closer to Lorian.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz1i0FnK4x
“Now this should be something.”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwhEu4kkYN
“This is ridiculous...” Deena exhales “captain?”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvtwl0Z3CY
“Our orders were clear were they not? Perhaps they were orders for me alone to416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhYDeppHdr
carry?” Celle had on her face that typical smug expression of hers, something already416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9emk8R6ZzL
too familiar to all those inhabiting her circle “I will make sure to bring these issues to416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSGYoGu0ys
his majesty more often.”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgH9Ik0qXVv
“You are such a bitch sometimes” Deena spoke openly while Red just stood there,416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjilT4i5Xkt
in the middle of the whole scene, surrounded by the five, with Dhanel Marce slightly416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OU5PrUcqB
farther away than the rest.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciXsUfQect
He stood and watched with his feet deeply rooted into that scarred soil, for his eyes416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPx5hOr7xQU
alone could do all the necessary movements this moment required.416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpq5iSdGF5b
“You used to serve the Hand, yes?” Celle asked, “So you know how it must go.”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoO5sVlbTdU
“Impressive.” Red finally said, “You really gobble up all that kingly shit, don’t you?”416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFW13X5nUh
