A cloaked and quick shadow jumps287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4M7U5hXvJX
from a dark corner to another; seconds287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0YCGA4xxN
pass and then there it is again, it is very287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEmQZcd6tO
fast, easily as fast as any of them...287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeZ4mRA73F
“Could it be?” mumbled Dhanel Marce287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzLM8lKzCK
as he was the only one keeping his more287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJm5R0u5Ct
relaxed approach, while the rest quickly287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMUQGPSkRi
assumed a much more prepared stance.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuU1zlSkqz2
Harigar Rhim drew his sword as fast as287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6J0P2nBbu4
his eyes travelled through that dark, while287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TfcleTWuA
standing right next to him, Lorian already287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGyRN2h0zV
had his weapon at the ready. Dhanel287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpR96rSaH5b
Marce did not even consider holding287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSwhtF8iGP
his blade once. A few more unsettling287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0yrHv07uP
seconds of silence and then a rising flame287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyu8qBA1Vh
would lure them into a more open area; it287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuhrvTsIRy
is a most familiar flame to some of them,287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyv7mmLSI2
even if it is one not seen in quite a while.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoABCkoddAV
A peculiar flame, a different kind of287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPc7loLzTew
burn, an eternal fire that was hard to287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnOY7aBqCr
earn but worthy to master that currently287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYr4BXCPFcP
inhabits the shapes of an also familiar287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiPu0cP0dV
sword. It is known as the Malaguis Fire,287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJ587JR8JV
for it is named after some sort of ´deity´287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLjMk2Yi4N
worshipped by some elder tribes in the287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQR4ImOdsr6
eastern depths of the world. Named after287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvF9cvQa6v
such divinity for it is a fire that does not287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSoSlQ7zxC
hurt its wielder and also never runs out.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGRUb00XIX
Folklore maybe? Perhaps.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImxSbG3qk8
Regardless, that red glowing stone was287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwjgNnvk5s
long ago recovered by a couple of young287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshXa1BPIB3
adventurers and once it was confined to287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3KDdrdYnz
a blade of their choosing, it allowed its287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4cc0e2Msi
wielder, after much hardship, to secure287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSJOHFzaRc
himself a great power. Now in front of287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3itUfHsRl
them, waiting with his back turned, is said287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPKciyrS5j
wielder, a large and familiar man to some287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IRTGPqoT5
of them here, for his fire also served the287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9kxbCoAmT
Hand once.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXyWYzJpvR
With his back turned to them but in287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWygF3OzNoD
an inviting manner, as if he was almost287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHkJsxZoSE
waiting for them, as he too faces that287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycH232ORr7
mountain. The fire on his sword burns287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZjsXwKVSz
up one more time as if calling them once287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlvnzkkgW1
again...287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFqPaEasMZ
“Red...” said Deena as she slowly puts her weapon to rest. Harigar Rhim also287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnR1GtkUTF
sheathed his blade but the remaining two did not. Lorian looked back at Dhanel287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizzdJ1PGKX
Marce, and only after this one nodded did he do the same. Celle however would stay287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypEwVTwMau
armed and ready.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4Hyw1PfTt
“Red…not entirely unexpected I suppose.” Dhanel Marce takes a few steps forward287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzW0pmnKuUd
as the hooded figure gently turned around.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwZwRkHb0S
He is not wearing any mask. The fire he carries on his back diminished as he took287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkshbtQxqq
some steps towards them. Both men met halfway, under rain and lightning, and now287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQYdF79aMj
fire too; they stared at each other leaving the rest in quiet contemplation. Short words287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdO0xA97sg
were exchanged between them that no one else was able to hear and after that, the two287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6QM5P0YYp
approached the rest of them.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqivYQ2jXTS
Greetings took place among the already familiar faces, but they were not overdone.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxfPlJv41G
