She pushed on his chest while turning him about. Then did the same to Han. "Go!"
894Please respect copyright.PENANAuuXJwtf7c9
"I resent being-"
894Please respect copyright.PENANAbWHkuI7LNg
She growled at him. The Ancient side threatened to rip through her layers of self-control.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA8Q5LO8ziGj
She grabbed their arms, flipping them over twenty feet away, onto the soft grasses.
894Please respect copyright.PENANASkurGOgW01
The spider-nab dropped out of the tree. She growled at it, unable to speak. Her body dripped with sweat. Daggers in hand.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAu5dZgK3jAg
I like this side of you. It's amusing to me, Unnamed said.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAhWNS7zGUf5
Just shut up.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAfH77MDww4e
It lunged at her aiming for her head.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAhe5BZC4a8v
She dodged it then sliced at its leg. The dagger bounced off, almost flying from her hand. How'd it ever get this far out?
894Please respect copyright.PENANArHIi6hLJyW
Parcival and Han ran over.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA4mgxp1rSjz
Parcival spread his feet cupping his hands together. Spreading them an energy ball shot out from his palms. It hit the spider-nab on its thorax, it backed away squealing.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAacKZ0gJibc
It hissed low raising on its back legs, she rolled to the side, but not before its fangs sank into her arm.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAfOsOGKTZrq
She screamed.
894Please respect copyright.PENANApjdzwFrwwD
The poison already was paralyzing her arm, it burned. She went down to her knees, hands propped on the soil. The blood lust vanished.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAkvj3PuKKVq
"Merryn!"
894Please respect copyright.PENANAN2IiBHBLKi
Han bounded over. Could only see his furry feet. He set his hands on her shoulders, a warming sensation spread down her back.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA089yhySqsT
She coughed.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAVr6rMrVjE7
The spider-nab let out an airy squeal.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAU4LT6916cl
"Die already!" Parcival poked its abdomen with his saber.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA3xbb8hV5Nu
The Adapts are wrong. Humans aren't week. She smiled a tiny bit.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAPC4CiX6KVP
The warmth receded, as a burning starting at the base of her spine pushing it away.
894Please respect copyright.PENANABpq4CdSSDp
"It's not working! Parcival quit playing with it and kill it already."
894Please respect copyright.PENANAbdppArNyC1
She sank down on her stomach. So tired now.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAunvNztAi8I
Her heartbeat in forefront, slowed.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAtxcrD8CLoh
Thud-thump.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAWbqs0uvXkM
The spider-nab fell down into its own body fluids, as its appendages were chopped off. Good.
894Please respect copyright.PENANARWv9Qk1Hpx
Idiot, should have taken the mountain route. Gods hex it all! If it ... get's free they'll die too.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAqyvaIe1U3P
Thud-thump.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAmsxnh7YZgp
One of them snorted. "You call that playing?"
894Please respect copyright.PENANAhSLNThTJhB
"Can you fix this?"
894Please respect copyright.PENANA1MB5sRHWL2
"No, it's too hard. She needs a higher tier priest. I'm more of a scribe then a healer."
894Please respect copyright.PENANAoRXJFcQ52P
"Leave me."
894Please respect copyright.PENANA5sFnc6GOkj
"Did you say something?" One of them said, as to who, well, they both sounded metallic.
894Please respect copyright.PENANABpxeq24Ib4
"She's becoming cold. Hurry up!"
894Please respect copyright.PENANA2urbiKoyBC
The burning poison spread into her torso, then to her toes.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAdcySJc4hCC
Thud-thump.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAJcM3wcWBws
"Need to hurry, her aura is fading."
894Please respect copyright.PENANAoYZbrNWKcC
"She's delirious."
894Please respect copyright.PENANAZD1mnY0WU9
One picked her up. She shuttered as the touch sent a shock into the biten sholder.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAxCsCLNgROg
"Sorry."
894Please respect copyright.PENANAu3nJ7YP04M
Some use I am, falling to poison of all things.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAIHCuYqmG86
Curses and angry words filled her ears.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAwRcsSFyxhR
Thoughts became heavy after this and her eyesight cloudy. She closed them.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAjEjoZmKsRa
You dare to die on me vessel? I'm not done! Answer me now!
894Please respect copyright.PENANAmFB1ge8ach
"Merryn! Don't give way to sleep!"894Please respect copyright.PENANAf8VlFIzZWg
894Please respect copyright.PENANAHspea3Y5iT
Shaking.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAsAjf1G90zY
Thud.
894Please respect copyright.PENANADmZaqlD8Mg
The darkness gathered from all sides, each sense faded in turn until just the darkness remained.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA47piSGIF7F
Silence.
894Please respect copyright.PENANABUs4r1xKJy
####
894Please respect copyright.PENANA036rakeaDa
After an innumerable amount of time a thrilling floating sensation started. Slow at first, then it built up speed. Almost like thoughts in tangible form. An echo all around rippled and flowed backwards. This echo, a thought crystallized and took form.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAGdfxlXadnl
Where am I?
894Please respect copyright.PENANAkTwM121POl
All looked different, had a gray tint to it like when at night. She stood behind Parcival.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAdAHGKap3ha
He shook ... my body?
894Please respect copyright.PENANATYQQJQcKLn
Then shouted while he carried her as he ran towards a dirt road off to the east.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAtyGhyJDFmS
She was pulled out along with them, so stopped trying to walk.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAvlCcLz5JU5
I hope they figure out my body needs to be sealed or Unnamed will come out. Probably kill them. Why?!
894Please respect copyright.PENANA5Q62W6uU6D
There were threads of energy connected to the body. They were so transparent that they were easy to miss.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAovNCGpfRy6
My fingers. She formed a fist and thrust her right spirit arm to the side.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAQwDi87tP39
Nothing.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAgdv1WnuYxO
Now what?
894Please respect copyright.PENANAMUOvrvL3oO
Energy. What was it mom said about this again?
894Please respect copyright.PENANAmgWzIYQ8KA
The two humans reached a town of some sort. Parcival talked with several people before running off with her body to the end of the town.
894Please respect copyright.PENANACayZe0KUO4
Energy. Our souls are energy, with bodies of flesh to ... to what?
894Please respect copyright.PENANALxImbtLxdv
Memories were as slippery now as an interrupted dream.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAcCwbZRucp1
A kind looking priest came out of a small marble temple. These back towns couldn't afford grand ones, what with marble so hard to obtain.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAygsk43o6Dv
Hum. Some used treestone but it wasn't the same it didn't collect the light spirts energy as well.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA7QliOjo0eD
What was I doing?
894Please respect copyright.PENANAd1Y2tYLDxk
Part of her wanted to wander inside.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAEM7zhOQTxX
The priest looked straight at her.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAkQ5VP44jPh
Can he see me?
894Please respect copyright.PENANAyu7NiSXyS2
He visibly paled. Then began talking rapidly to tall armored man and the puffy cathet man.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA9Gn4vFXebq
They all went inside, pulling her with.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAV4RoAxHAAv
Ick. Her body was swollen and seeped blood from her mouth and nose. Yuck.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAPHNgkUolTS
She backed away as far as the thread would allow.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAnajTKSNKFN
Her body twitched and jerked.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAhqQOp12tck
Oh. Right. That's what I've been doing.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAAKzPJ4Afc8
She jumped and flung both arms up.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAbKeMgX3tBm
Nothing. Again?
894Please respect copyright.PENANA6RM8Co0Clo
Okay... backing up further she tried once more. Her body jumped up with its arm in the air out of the man's hold onto the floor.
894Please respect copyright.PENANADNughsZTVw
All three yelled and backed off from the body.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA7np5by02EE
Oops.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA0RZgbm4WMt
The priest brushed off robe, talked to the men. Parcival picked her up. The priest went to some other room, then came back carrying a cup filled with whitish fluid. Well, it was hard to tell as all was grayish.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAzgtrOAv8TU
He dipped two fingers in it, then traced a curve on the floor. Repeating this until a large rune was completed this one had symbols of the sun throughout it along with overlapping leaf and water patterns. In the middle an empty circle.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAepR0czlQ7U
He pointed to the armored man, who nodded and placed her body there on her back.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAIpfCGybd4t
The priest talked some more, and they all sat down. The priest at the North end of the rune, Parcival west and Han East.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAoHie9ClU15
It was difficult to watch, she squeezed her eyes shut.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAHHpKat4koV
When she opened them her body's eyes opened as well.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAnhdy8rlCx2
All three sat around her cross-legged, they startled when the body's eyes opened.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA1wJEhH1koI
The priest talked again and held his arms in front with palms up forward. The others the same. They all were all so grim. He began talking, no chanting as his lips moved in the same manner each time.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAEXWPuYFIV9
I'll just sit here, trying to move just upsets them.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAzWTzYsgAZH
She sat beside the armored man. He shivered.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA2xXP42TOd5
A bright beam extended out of the priests palms seconds later the same from the others.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAKa2YWtyWN9
The beams intersected together over her torso.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAkmq6ZliLvd
Her body writhed.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAW8znSfMKy1
Vines sprouted from under the body and whipped out at the three, coiling around them.
894Please respect copyright.PENANATM0NVPb9Od
That can't be good. That's right, for good or ill, I'm that things vessel, must be looking for energy.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA0BMWycpFzU
But ... why care? A new pulling sensation different from the darker ancient one tugged.
894Please respect copyright.PENANARyvIJuCFIR
A transparent branch pushed out of the flooring behind the priest. The pulling tugged at her. Voices filled the room. She stood and went over to it.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAUxb9RN58bY
The branch grew, and more pushed out rising up until a tall tree stood. Its trunk glowed in the middle like a door. In it an outline if an old familiar Elvien man. His hand outstretched, mouthing the words:
894Please respect copyright.PENANAbwKWU2KUHW
"Come."
894Please respect copyright.PENANApp4BSWaAKC
She held back just shy of taking his hand. Tears wet her cheeks. Grandfather. She shook her head slowly.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAFaqZTXQLyQ
He nodded and turned back into the tree. It dipped back down, vanishing.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2IeZjqrdT
Twisting around, the men struggled under the vines. She frowned. Why are they so important?
894Please respect copyright.PENANAFwyezPgkZB
Yes. The god. The weakened god. Was it trying to take their energy?
894Please respect copyright.PENANAoO05W6gYHy
She pushed it aside and went over to her body. She gathered the threads in both hands and yanked on them. Come on!
894Please respect copyright.PENANAsrjz9jE0S8
The body twitched.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAr1qvohP8FJ
Vines erupted out from her mouth, they wrapped her body covering it. While the other ones tightened. The vines glowed and Han slumped over.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAF0CWhdOU4E
Must do something! But what?
894Please respect copyright.PENANA9qO7jGcbQD
The priest jumped up, tensing up his arms.
894Please respect copyright.PENANADs45sFGDTD
That is it!
894Please respect copyright.PENANAP05X9dauk0
Sweat ran down his face as he tensed against the bonds.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAh6JQ6W4ztF
She ran back as far as the threads would allow and jerked them. Her body went flying to the left and went down into the wall, cracking the marble. The vines snapped, ozing out sap.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA5BNq39j1iv
Turning back, the priest was glowing. The vines split, showing a glowing white hand.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAB9YHcSQAyp
I see, he used a light spell to cut it. Clever. Light has heat as well.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA5Sflatm5Nf
He freed the others, than walked over in front of her then pointed at the body.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAGOaIJl3hfW
It was in bad shape, not just ravaged by the poison, but wounds lanced its back. Some vines pieces still stuck out and mixed with the blood. A leg and arm were twisted in all the wrong angles.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAjMlZyChSWZ
I'm not going back in that!
894Please respect copyright.PENANA571VuCqUbB
He looked at her and pointed to it.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAv4jPW80KoR
What? What do you want? I can't go back in. Right?
894Please respect copyright.PENANAQUVXvj3xZT
She shuttered.
894Please respect copyright.PENANALok2cLNbnb
The man in armor came and gingerly picked up the body, placing it again on the rune.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAitb51ZCD7o
She moved forward following it some.
894Please respect copyright.PENANALrG9Z9n0V7
They talked again and started up the bright beam again. This time finishing and covering the body.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAPNjyr9Q5G1
The thread shortened dragging her toward it.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAzNUylkoudP
No! I changed my mind! She clawed at the smooth marble unable to grip it.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA7A6bWRvFg5
A foot off a spirit lay next to her body, its eyes had large bags under them and its cheeks were sunken in. He smiled, all canines long and sharp.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAz4Xqdgn7sT
A final tug pulled her back in.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAQrxARYG7No
The world flooded back, lights, sounds, color.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAqVz2ODoU7N
Pain.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAZ2ole2o14T
Everything is pain.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAQEHNKYltUV
Her body twitched.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA7YQnOtUtRv
Han had his hands on her chest, they glowed green.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAU1Rk23ASff
No, let me die!
894Please respect copyright.PENANAKq7OAt2PRK
A touch.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAb3NsX8jlAu
The man ... Parcival. He held her.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA7vvt4xi2dN
"Stop scaring me like that," he said.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAWFdruw3WXV
A croaking sound came from her was she tried to speak. She coughed and spewed out a mouthful of blood.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAa1MGMl9usJ
He stiffened. "Get over here and heal her all ready!"
894Please respect copyright.PENANAp0SEvfKLEF
"Of course," a gravely voice said. She turned her head a little. Ah, the priest.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6qvHwbOEM
Her body strained to bend during a spasm, her back cracked.
894Please respect copyright.PENANApIa4hv0vEz
"Yaaaa!"
894Please respect copyright.PENANAkPLLnC9qbb
The wall. My back hit the wall.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAbgWbpAvL9x
Tears squeezed out, as all of the pain scorched through her. She clenched her jaw.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAa3mi8dFfv9
"Don't let her move, she's still close to death. Keep her sill."
894Please respect copyright.PENANAnB5b4LlKZL
Parcival's huge hand hovered over her face, then rested on the crown of her head the other pushed down on her stomach.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAN6AH7oVVn3
"Stop moving," the priest said.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAlICn8ccF1r
"Shhhh."
894Please respect copyright.PENANA0zjC2OLNpE
She huffed. It did hurt less being still. Or was that the healing spell?
894Please respect copyright.PENANAcilZHmNd7i
Regardless a not so bad numbness seeped in. Her face relaxed, she unclenched her jaw.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAL2FyFbpnFI
Hans face hovered over. "How do you feel now?"
894Please respect copyright.PENANAxJQVboe2PB
"Numb."
894Please respect copyright.PENANAPB3B4PbQJE
He managed to pale under the fur. He looked at the priest who shook his head.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAA7oN3XPiHQ
"Go grab the long flat board in the other room."
894Please respect copyright.PENANAwFqjvQkiCZ
Han came back a while later, holding it. They held her neck and back with their hands, then slid her on it.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAUXUqNddC6p
It pinched. But do-able.
894Please respect copyright.PENANABJa6Pwa0mT
They took her to a room with a small bed and lifted her on it.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAZroWGy2GvZ
"Go now, I'll tend to her. Get some rest," the priest said.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAtJdciesj2a
Later they left, he closed the door, then came back.
894Please respect copyright.PENANA4wFLysgZA8
"What to do with you?" He brought a thin object from under the left side if his robe.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAHoHM9p0OhS
Its handle that showed shone in the candle light.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAdqnGtCsBeL
She flinched and was rewarded with a bolt of pain that sucked away her breath.
894Please respect copyright.PENANAglZfgCQKxb
"If I heal you that thing lives. If I let you die it will be free. Correct?"
894Please respect copyright.PENANABe6UnKuPRh
He stuck his face up into hers. "Why do you host an evil spirit? I can see it, it disgusts me!"
894Please respect copyright.PENANAh7P3PQeNo5
She shook, unable to answer. Please shut up. Even my teeth hurt. She closed her eyes. Go away. Go away. The pain is better than dealing with you!
894Please respect copyright.PENANAleeR4DLmdl
