Ethan - I can't believe the time has finally come. I will avenge my father today. Here it is, Ereadus's castle.347Please respect copyright.PENANABWcq33QMsl
347Please respect copyright.PENANAsJUiNTkRRY
Lunadea - It's less creepy than I thought.347Please respect copyright.PENANA7F2MjGfdr8
347Please respect copyright.PENANAdVmU68Md02
Ethan - There he is.347Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4YG4Gq7Wu
347Please respect copyright.PENANAKh7LAn56TV
The group reunites at Ereadus's castle, a large, dark castle in the woods. The rain outside made it seem even more foreboding, but the sun was still shining, giving the castle a somewhat normal appearance.347Please respect copyright.PENANA2CSAcXDVeH
347Please respect copyright.PENANAzStoRWjjAc
Sammy - Took your sweet time getting here.347Please respect copyright.PENANA7OlEdcsqzE
347Please respect copyright.PENANA2GVNPN1ifS
Lunadea - Do you always have something to say?347Please respect copyright.PENANA8JoUKHpRNk
347Please respect copyright.PENANATOSR0E3P9v
Sammy - You are a Dämoneneko? Interesting people you gather, Ethan.347Please respect copyright.PENANAQxOaqWGp5H
347Please respect copyright.PENANAGbq58iVbsM
Lunadea was getting defensive.347Please respect copyright.PENANA2MYtBJnD4A
347Please respect copyright.PENANAU5JPXKFtZj
Lunadea - Does that bother you?347Please respect copyright.PENANAqJOBS100ut
347Please respect copyright.PENANAn7PJ3SV45q
Sammy, with a dismissive tone, answered347Please respect copyright.PENANAWPnjaJJdLJ
347Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2gxqqp1Tq
Sammy - Bother me? Pfft! I don't care. You could be the Mad King himself, I have no such feelings.347Please respect copyright.PENANArjASOMYB7z
347Please respect copyright.PENANA5DjEsuGVP6
Lunadea, feeling offended, was about to retort, but Dorian intervened.347Please respect copyright.PENANA1G4xQxws9Z
347Please respect copyright.PENANAuJZpVewA5H
Dorian - It's okay, Luna. Do you want to lead the group Sammy?347Please respect copyright.PENANA3S0RDiMUzN
347Please respect copyright.PENANAge2KS2wGFl
Sammy - I'm not exactly a leader, so once we're inside, you guys should probably stay out of my way.347Please respect copyright.PENANAHv4hDOgwtk
347Please respect copyright.PENANAEuFHCPcuqu
Ethan - We'll just have to be on our guard. Let's go inside.347Please respect copyright.PENANA7yUOxMOJzm
347Please respect copyright.PENANAslC6uBhNFv
The group agrees and opens the castle doors. When they enter, they see a bunch of undead bodies destroyed on the ground.347Please respect copyright.PENANAdq89vFfmuY
347Please respect copyright.PENANAek6wqLOvH3
Dorian - What happened here?347Please respect copyright.PENANAhzQ84gdHnv
347Please respect copyright.PENANAVHmpAS0AXv
Sammy - Looks like there was some fighting here already. Maybe someone else decided to help the kid?347Please respect copyright.PENANApWX7RPOsrX
347Please respect copyright.PENANArK6f08wZRE
Ethan - That's not possible. Nobody else knew about the kid.347Please respect copyright.PENANAVOwgUYLdV0
347Please respect copyright.PENANAUg0t6DWnHD
Lunadea - Maybe the mother took matters into her own hands?347Please respect copyright.PENANAUqO5a8uKhz
347Please respect copyright.PENANATgfwnoEwdV
Ethan - I doubt it...347Please respect copyright.PENANA8u7bYyeOn9
347Please respect copyright.PENANAyBhAgjqewx
As they continue walking, a trapdoor suddenly opens beneath their feet and they all fall into a pit that is about five meters deep, except for Sammy, who managed to turn into smoke at the sound of the trapdoor.347Please respect copyright.PENANA7hDDtYb5bL
347Please respect copyright.PENANA45UIfhHxBL
Sammy - Looks like you guys are in a pickle.347Please respect copyright.PENANATX4oHEwdaL
347Please respect copyright.PENANAQi38GL2nqc
Ethan - Are you guys okay?347Please respect copyright.PENANA3Rcm4HfHBj
347Please respect copyright.PENANAB4ZOzEtpTV
Dorian - I'm okay, Luna?347Please respect copyright.PENANAzsdlVzyQZM
347Please respect copyright.PENANAez6lR2iwwV
Lunadea - I'm fine, don't worry about me.347Please respect copyright.PENANAeu93H9FEEv
347Please respect copyright.PENANANUdt57vgLX
Ethan - Sammy, can you see anything that could help us?347Please respect copyright.PENANAII5C0UZko4
347Please respect copyright.PENANA26mh5TfRtA
Sammy - Not really. And to be honest, it's not my problem. I told you guys to worry about yourselves, and within the first two minutes of our 'adventure', you get trapped. I'll be leaving now. Have fun.347Please respect copyright.PENANAiZI3bKoUp9
347Please respect copyright.PENANAfb9MtTE063
Lunadea - You can't do that, you jerk! Hey!347Please respect copyright.PENANAJR0Lc4UzSe
347Please respect copyright.PENANAYDEqjsvN8D
Dorian - Leave it, Luna... we need to figure out how to get out of here.347Please respect copyright.PENANAMbBhek6TGF
347Please respect copyright.PENANA1yNy4ytlTe
Ethan - I'm sorry, guys. It's my fault. I shouldn't have trusted that guy.347Please respect copyright.PENANAV2qshQfrfE
347Please respect copyright.PENANAEwQz1LP3FA
Lunadea - It's not your fault, Ethan. Damn it!347Please respect copyright.PENANANM6LxCVxCC
347Please respect copyright.PENANABGS44X3RXk
As Sammy sprints down the dimly lit corridor. He knows that he is running out of time to rescue the kid, and the thought of failure weighs heavy on his mind. But then he sees it - a glint of silver in the distance. He approaches the door and notices the intricate engravings that adorn its surface. Once he opens the door he is greeted by the sound of rattling bones.347Please respect copyright.PENANA9Sr3NPsyAv
347Please respect copyright.PENANAyS8GOHOx8v
Sammy reacts before the skeletons lunge at him. He quickly disappears in a cloud of smoke, narrowly avoiding the blades as they swing through the air where he once stood. When he reappears, he unwraps a little bit of his chain and whips them both really fast, his movements precise and efficient.347Please respect copyright.PENANA3VNb5WEG4S
347Please respect copyright.PENANAOnWW0oWSWX
With the threat dealt with, Sammy takes a moment to survey the room. It's massive, with high ceilings and a feeling of emptiness that seems to echo through the space. There's not much in the room, just a large bed in the center and a bookshelf against the wall. Strangely, there are no windows in the room - it's as if it was built to be completely sealed off from the outside world. As he looks around, a soft voice speaks from a dark corner of the room.347Please respect copyright.PENANApDh2pBfUlW
347Please respect copyright.PENANAMMmZeL58Yu
Mangetsu - Ehm, Mister?347Please respect copyright.PENANAYNpvRQPSl3
347Please respect copyright.PENANAGbLEekcR9z
Sammy readies his chain, prepared to strike whoever is lurking in the corner.347Please respect copyright.PENANAqjSn9XI0Zn
347Please respect copyright.PENANASSJPjbUuvF
Sammy - Who goes there?347Please respect copyright.PENANAZiG13of2jU
347Please respect copyright.PENANAoZi1rlLG1R
Mangetsu - I'm Mangetsu! What's your name?347Please respect copyright.PENANATxbWGxxWFY
347Please respect copyright.PENANA79e6UvrgWD
Mangetsu steps out of the shadows, a friendly smile on her face as she cradles a guitar in her arms. Sammy notices that she is just a little girl, but he doesn't let his guard down.347Please respect copyright.PENANAr6RwFaA78U
347Please respect copyright.PENANAF4oZi3foTt
Sammy - Why are you in this castle?347Please respect copyright.PENANApLJAmNTEft
347Please respect copyright.PENANAeKTU2oE341
Mangetsu - This is my home!347Please respect copyright.PENANAuj7ruuBApF

347Please respect copyright.PENANA2u2qeKehsC
Mangetsu - You know my dad?347Please respect copyright.PENANAwPWN30gxa8

Sammy - Not really, but I'd love to meet him. Do you know where he is?347Please respect copyright.PENANA90fBC2jqQl
347Please respect copyright.PENANAC0ZISeNqTC
Mangetsu - Probably in his lab.347Please respect copyright.PENANAu5LvnMWsaV
347Please respect copyright.PENANAcn4jtHbQPJ
Sammy - Do you know where that is?347Please respect copyright.PENANAAvBZucGvqQ
347Please respect copyright.PENANAsEHGg7pUV0
Mangetsu - No, my dad doesn't tell me much. Actually, he doesn't talk to me much at all347Please respect copyright.PENANA6adtIREM4j
347Please respect copyright.PENANA2LR4xOCziZ
Sammy - I'm sure it must be hard for you, being a princess in a castle.347Please respect copyright.PENANAvJkt2zZJf5
347Please respect copyright.PENANAS2mrNfHfxv
Sammy says in a sarcastic tone.347Please respect copyright.PENANAxuaCplvMKc
347Please respect copyright.PENANAebWRnQIyyD
Mangetsu just smiles at him.347Please respect copyright.PENANAetk2DBe5qC
347Please respect copyright.PENANAgt1OX9I8Qz
Mangetsu - No, really! I have all of them keeping me company.347Please respect copyright.PENANAPaWd3u8uC3
347Please respect copyright.PENANAU2TtLHj65Z
Sammy - All... of them?347Please respect copyright.PENANAj1Pxjh446o
347Please respect copyright.PENANARRFf67LduP
Mangetsu - Yes! I see all kinds of people around me! But only I can see them. It's my gift, dad says.347Please respect copyright.PENANAdQo0liUqbe
347Please respect copyright.PENANA4aAM7R8c0e
Sammy - Did you summon those skeletons too?347Please respect copyright.PENANAX747LGxgwp
347Please respect copyright.PENANAhmgYKmMcG4
Mangetsu - No, no. I can't do things like my dad. I just see them, and they're more human.347Please respect copyright.PENANA8JTBAjvXdy
347Please respect copyright.PENANA7icdwTquxG
Sammy - Okay, Mangetsu, you're coming with me!347Please respect copyright.PENANA2jGZyHYE5s
347Please respect copyright.PENANAtkoW3Z4jLf
Mangetsu - I can't, mister. I'm really sorry...but I can't walk anywhere else except my room and the dining hall.347Please respect copyright.PENANAIQ1yb7jiw3
347Please respect copyright.PENANAWp8mcidfmJ
Sammy - I'm sure you'll be fine. I need to speak with your dad and you're going to help me find him.347Please respect copyright.PENANA6Du95suca9
347Please respect copyright.PENANAWFN5VveyKy
Meanwhile, in the pit:347Please respect copyright.PENANANN4H5EfdLF
347Please respect copyright.PENANAnAx22BFEaK
Dorian - I'm not!347Please respect copyright.PENANA5tmKRVJUZP
347Please respect copyright.PENANAEzKhC7xTse
Lunadea - Dorina? Are you ok?347Please respect copyright.PENANAsPFbtpqvxO
347Please respect copyright.PENANAFQlHfi4Cx4
Dorian - We need to find a way out of here.347Please respect copyright.PENANAORf8go4OSk
347Please respect copyright.PENANAPhYLoc3pEY
Ethan - Climb on my shoulders, I'll throw you both out.347Please respect copyright.PENANAIJL6vLgdqU
347Please respect copyright.PENANAmYjCwEjTsT
Lunadea - You want us to leave you here?347Please respect copyright.PENANAXpvI33Fruy
347Please respect copyright.PENANAhVWLHkOzSe
Ethan - We don't have a choice. Sammy doesn't know, but he won't be able to defeat Ereadus on his own. You guys need to help him.347Please respect copyright.PENANAx2GPvOKUqg
347Please respect copyright.PENANA27C1tZr5bO
Dorian - We're not leaving you here, Ethan. And Sammy can wait. He got himself into this situation.347Please respect copyright.PENANA4tMrbRzXM5
347Please respect copyright.PENANAXrLdx7p5m8
Ethan - Please don't be too hard on Sammy. He's actually a good guy with a tough act.347Please respect copyright.PENANAWD3Xplybou
347Please respect copyright.PENANAnQ56zCeZzV
Suddenly, they hear a voice from above.347Please respect copyright.PENANArkhAVU7ttK
347Please respect copyright.PENANAA6gmIHbCt2
Guard 1 - Captain?347Please respect copyright.PENANA8XyfvPfIiF
347Please respect copyright.PENANAzoVrRPOS46
Ethan - Rolfd?347Please respect copyright.PENANAtIGWHevRkZ
347Please respect copyright.PENANArCsxsSwGyG
Rolfd - Captain! Thank god we found you!347Please respect copyright.PENANAHpcDEPc6U2
347Please respect copyright.PENANAGx4bbepWmz
Ethan - What are you guys doing here?347Please respect copyright.PENANAk14JrBKfgf
347Please respect copyright.PENANA2UwIIpUCCq
Rolfd - The village is under attack by the undead. Our fighters are trying to hold them off, but there are too many of them. The mayor sent us to ask for assistance from the captain.347Please respect copyright.PENANAgEADm5KInN
347Please respect copyright.PENANAkbZpDD34AS
Ethan - Quick, go find some rope and get us out of here. I'll head back to the village and help out.347Please respect copyright.PENANAxOhbJokHQb
347Please respect copyright.PENANASQOBl9eHwA
Deep underground in the castle, Ereadus's lab is bustling with activity. He is working on a body, but he is not alone. Behind him stands a beautiful young woman with long, flowing black hair, dark eyes, and olive skin. In her hand, she holds a jar of sand.347Please respect copyright.PENANAHHLJdwggTX
347Please respect copyright.PENANAg5oEFUpuVG
Ereadus looks up at her.347Please respect copyright.PENANAGC8eNNdjjw
347Please respect copyright.PENANASaH6vCbAdp
Ereadus - It seems there are other people trying to enter my castle. They're not as smart as you. At least you didn't fall for the first trap.347Please respect copyright.PENANAHGi40cmzXz
347Please respect copyright.PENANA0LSXLk0hYq
Girl - Answer my question.347Please respect copyright.PENANAa6Is06bbZd
347Please respect copyright.PENANAeOXEQSIU1X
Ereadus - You're pretty skilled, killed all my minions until now. But are you sure you can talk to me like that? What was your name again, little girl?347Please respect copyright.PENANAz4noXtNqq9
347Please respect copyright.PENANABQqdEOjWLM
Analissa glares at him.347Please respect copyright.PENANAVp7bVBCUUK
347Please respect copyright.PENANAECNQlIUGrk
Analissa - It's Analissa, and please don't waste my time. I kill your minions because they attacked me347Please respect copyright.PENANA22K7pqZvVb
347Please respect copyright.PENANAavWKol709j
Ereadus - Yes, yes. You have a prince in that jar, huh? What magic sealed him?347Please respect copyright.PENANAtpKiFizV7l
347Please respect copyright.PENANADAwEK7B6iV
Analissa - That is not of your concern.347Please respect copyright.PENANAEPI3cCN6Wf
347Please respect copyright.PENANA7BYUUnm5T0
Ereadus - But it is. You come to me, asking for my help. I need to know what sealed him in order to release him.347Please respect copyright.PENANA88rE4BANxj
347Please respect copyright.PENANA0aAw8bfNgp
Analissa - Engenshi magic.347Please respect copyright.PENANAyG0W1Kmj9a
347Please respect copyright.PENANAlUAjYkyoVf
Ereadus's eyes widen in surprise.347Please respect copyright.PENANANqHmOKKiVK
347Please respect copyright.PENANAp76ns6a4vD
Ereadus - Engenshi? Why would one of 'them' seal away your prince?347Please respect copyright.PENANAiQEmkkKN4i
347Please respect copyright.PENANAx9dm9yrcUa
Analissa - My prince rebelled against the king... He sent his kind to fight us.347Please respect copyright.PENANARivzWFrQ54
347Please respect copyright.PENANACb0r0b2IVt
Ereadus - I heard about a rebelion but that was years ago, i was a kid when that happend. You probably wasent even born. Are you telling me this prince of yours is more than 50 years old?347Please respect copyright.PENANAZwEIDqycrL
347Please respect copyright.PENANArkD5gqPeeS
Analissa - I've had enough! I'm leaving.347Please respect copyright.PENANAc1wmFXQG0n
347Please respect copyright.PENANAKgUpMwGscc
Ereadus - Wait! I can release your prince.347Please respect copyright.PENANAyGia83HvIw
347Please respect copyright.PENANALrjfzIWx32
Sammy and Mangetsu continue walking through the corridors, searching for Ereadus's lab. Mangetsu looks nervous347Please respect copyright.PENANAZD6UH8gS6q
347Please respect copyright.PENANACOaQQjoHj2
Mangetsu - I really shouldn't be here, mister. My dad doesn't like it when I escape my room.347Please respect copyright.PENANAwsOluJPmgO
347Please respect copyright.PENANAR4dDk6HRyB
Sammy - Your dad isn't the best, is he?347Please respect copyright.PENANA7cSUP7gDRW
347Please respect copyright.PENANAzNhIg5ZNaq
Mangetsu - I wouldn't know. The only people I've met are you and the two other people in the woods the other night.347Please respect copyright.PENANAjPahFWxuv8
347Please respect copyright.PENANAhjQQPfwczY
Sammy points to a dark door leading to the basement.347Please respect copyright.PENANAJrg2pLbxjg
347Please respect copyright.PENANACGqGVT6f5r
Sammy - A little bit cliche for a dark lab, don't you think, Ereadus?.347Please respect copyright.PENANAGHoItPRJdP
347Please respect copyright.PENANAoSwRwUkcmR
Mangetsu - I can't go in there347Please respect copyright.PENANALPUqLZBiqN
347Please respect copyright.PENANAZQmRUe6MMU
Mangetsu's face is full of fear and her body starts trembling. Sweat runs down her face.347Please respect copyright.PENANA5DydLRGplb
347Please respect copyright.PENANA68l8IqF4ls
Sammy - Hey, hey, look at me. I can't imagine what happened to you, but I promise nothing is going to happen to you down there. I promise this nightmare stops right now. Let's go, and stay close.347Please respect copyright.PENANAiFuhvvuSOo
347Please respect copyright.PENANAyM1FXXXWCk
He starts heading towards the lab, but Mangetsu doesn't move. She's too afraid. Sammy turns to her and looks her directly in the eyes.347Please respect copyright.PENANAylQz5EUoHA
347Please respect copyright.PENANAgfIZm4xQHY
Sammy - Whatever happens, stay close to me. I will protect you, okay?347Please respect copyright.PENANAFLHoq7YLCY
347Please respect copyright.PENANAl2Y76Ab5Ld
Mangetsu - Okay...347Please respect copyright.PENANAT6V5TmjF21
347Please respect copyright.PENANACcFGtvNYE3
Ereadus examines the jar.347Please respect copyright.PENANApyzqDBKoJA
347Please respect copyright.PENANAEQWTHTEN1H
Ereadus - It's going to be hard, since it's an Engenshi seal. But I might know someone who knows a little bit more about that. I just need to summon her.347Please respect copyright.PENANAQfZLc182Wl
347Please respect copyright.PENANAHzUkyDqJD7
Analissa - What's the price?347Please respect copyright.PENANAhAgyOMqvkJ
347Please respect copyright.PENANAYkGNI7fNGv
Ereadus smiles.347Please respect copyright.PENANA3AuzKhB0k4
347Please respect copyright.PENANAXSJmnLjeLO
Ereadus - Price? Of course. Well, if I'm able to unseal your prince, I will find out where he failed. You see, he and I have the same ambition. The price will be you and him working with me to finally kill the king.347Please respect copyright.PENANAeDw9oHY7yq
347Please respect copyright.PENANADol169JZLU
Analissa - You're really as mad as they say you are if you think you can kill the king.347Please respect copyright.PENANAbhRlqKcIag
347Please respect copyright.PENANAkrBPs1Oe4o
Ereadus - They called me mad when I didn't have magic. Look at me now. But I see that this conversation has to be stopped for a while. Sammy! What are you doing here? I told you I can't bring her back.347Please respect copyright.PENANAJJuPWFAjXv
347Please respect copyright.PENANAAnwMWOiv97
Sammy steps forward, his chain at the ready.347Please respect copyright.PENANARbyDhbSRHP
347Please respect copyright.PENANAANNAWF5rJl
Sammy - Shut your mouth. I need the girl, Ereadus.347Please respect copyright.PENANAPU7q4JTnEz
347Please respect copyright.PENANAL6CCjwF5C1
Ereadus's eyes widen in shock347Please respect copyright.PENANA4TUeKi07In
347Please respect copyright.PENANAwGlDpFcbhA
Ereadus - Mangetsu... What is the meaning of this?!347Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3hL8YqZcg
347Please respect copyright.PENANAVj2226N6gK
Mangetsu looks down at the ground, her hands shaking.347Please respect copyright.PENANAubS7jHAQKd
347Please respect copyright.PENANArPNJ1gSKBf
Mangetsu - Sorry! I'm sorry! I'll go back to my room right now.347Please respect copyright.PENANAKo3HVdTyRC
347Please respect copyright.PENANAmgRlfXOl46
Sammy - You stay here. I'm telling you one more time. Give me back the little girl you took from the village.347Please respect copyright.PENANA4RTIdEqHRV
347Please respect copyright.PENANAWR3EJ8QZv9
Ereadus's expression turns dark.347Please respect copyright.PENANAvclrkwWTMV
347Please respect copyright.PENANA9vDLBqrcV7
Ereadus - Which part? But don't worry about that. You saw my daughter, Sammy. That makes me really mad. I'll deal with you later, Mangetsu. You! You want your prince back? Bring me that guy's head.347Please respect copyright.PENANA03RxtkDnFo
347Please respect copyright.PENANAr4YIABPITZ
Sammy and Analissa stand face to face, ready for whatever happens next.
