A cloaked and quick shadow jumps322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbQwAjR9jz
from a dark corner to another; seconds322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlV14jhh5D

fast, easily as fast as any of them...322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsanQ2Uy4nH
“Could it be?” mumbled Dhanel Marce322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BQDLNVu0d
as he was the only one keeping his more322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDOqX1qpt7
relaxed approach, while the rest quickly322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5xYwHrGFU
assumed a much more prepared stance.322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiX68RKFRe
Harigar Rhim drew his sword as fast as322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEMGaKqwqt
his eyes travelled through that dark, while322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡII3dt5uSS1
standing right next to him, Lorian already322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZIEKTT54c
had his weapon at the ready. Dhanel322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FDgtQpoPy
Marce did not even consider holding322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQZLDmBuRL
his blade once. A few more unsettling322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzNmokiTlN
seconds of silence and then a rising flame322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bQZQMPAbH
would lure them into a more open area; it322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14W1Edrpc4
is a most familiar flame to some of them,322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcCewXAuYW
even if it is one not seen in quite a while.322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPmiKMMA0N
A peculiar flame, a different kind of322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7rTHZ4uie
burn, an eternal fire that was hard to322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvLmMhYaDa
earn but worthy to master that currently322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgTXFRlaXn
inhabits the shapes of an also familiar322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuLT3h5Y4Y
sword. It is known as the Malaguis Fire,322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW2TjcXIlD
for it is named after some sort of ´deity´322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX0jV0PJ1c
worshipped by some elder tribes in the322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8LKemkwuw
eastern depths of the world. Named after322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56BWVIYJFe
such divinity for it is a fire that does not322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNGmzzsDCJ
hurt its wielder and also never runs out.322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKz9G2Zlur
Folklore maybe? Perhaps.322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNibGQxX8yv
Regardless, that red glowing stone was322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC13eoT9sUH
long ago recovered by a couple of young322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC66shnJqZj
adventurers and once it was confined to322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC78G4Azu0s
a blade of their choosing, it allowed its322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKa5b5klWzS
wielder, after much hardship, to secure322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fwmOBhkPr
himself a great power. Now in front of322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMXQmrjPul

of them here, for his fire also served the322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8rWpjZdEJ
Hand once.322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRf6jjm1Y0v
With his back turned to them but in322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFe3cjQzbuK
an inviting manner, as if he was almost322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYAtKfFHab
waiting for them, as he too faces that322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgx3LqAcYQf
mountain. The fire on his sword burns322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TvEjTa55A
up one more time as if calling them once322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9zfPiRX02
again...322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRBsj2HCXO
“Red...” said Deena as she slowly puts her weapon to rest. Harigar Rhim also322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXShBsaYdP
sheathed his blade but the remaining two did not. Lorian looked back at Dhanel322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPDCysnDZ9
Marce, and only after this one nodded did he do the same. Celle however would stay322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOSWIs0pEC
armed and ready.322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtK0Y8EDD03
“Red…not entirely unexpected I suppose.” Dhanel Marce takes a few steps forward322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHct2UqT48
as the hooded figure gently turned around.322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrTuual1fV
He is not wearing any mask. The fire he carries on his back diminished as he took322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIM7IQZ7rQw
some steps towards them. Both men met halfway, under rain and lightning, and now322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3FDpSvOSW
fire too; they stared at each other leaving the rest in quiet contemplation. Short words322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiMLo0RwAX
were exchanged between them that no one else was able to hear and after that, the two322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASp4v02HEk
approached the rest of them.322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58SJYnFMaT
Greetings took place among the already familiar faces, but they were not overdone.322Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1cSlY4tYz
