Not really.330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIS3XNIAR6
And that Red, is how we lost Elistia.”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZnTEkW28H
Red soaked it all in for a short moment, but there was no time for more, as it was330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoZTUIAMOn
now the turn for Harigar Rhim to interrupt...330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6avuLMxGN
“Boss!” Dhanel Marce looks at him “We really need to get going now.”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSw8PAP9c4
... the sky goes white once again... lightning strikes with the most thunderous of330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgmFIDblpR
roars... this time at the very top of the fearful mountain... so hard that they could swear330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILUZ0cwChd
some pieces of rock were cleaved right of it...330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0F9DZbvkL
“What do you mean get moving?” asked Celle “What about this situation? We are330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM77o1SfFtq
here brazenly wasting time talking with this riffraff, indulging him instead of coming330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaGEPPtzsx
to terms with how to handle this. Is any reminder needed that we are on a mission?330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwKwyPgeTo
Acting on secrecy?”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzaO4mzSlC
“Celle is right.” Deena took up the word “I guess we cannot proceed without330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Sp9t6wG9X
addressing this.”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFjDJ43Fde
“Why are you here?” Celle persisted...330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAw2ivID0cj
“Red can often be found here.” Deena looked at Dhanel Marce as if asking330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eKrD92JiH
permission to proceed with every word offered “He is originally from this town and330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKoplX1vsa
more often than not, he comes here to walk these empty streets, so us finding him here330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJNHoccvWO
tonight is not that out of the ordinary nor coincidental. Ever since tragedy befell this330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFUokZgGk1
place he has been coming here, and none of us has ever asked, as we could understand330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz75J7t5k06
the reason somewhat.”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaMaZxz1ca
Deena continued reluctantly, as she now looked at the red-haired man “Sometimes330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9R767xGql
he would disappear for days and in the end, we would always find him here when duty330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5lg9EfI09
called. It is not that uncanny to find him here tonight. I think none of us is all that330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqlMhe40jd
surprised...”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHaatHQMB2
“Aye, I’ll admit to that.” Harigar Rhim looked at them all, as he scratched the back330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEKfq1cbbN
of his head.330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxijqk0sIMF
“That may be” Celle took a few steps “but there is still the “detail” of the330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvG5DiqZG99
inconspicuously of our presence here, and this man regardless of his past or bond to330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiMRfSJvjc
any of you, is not with the Hand anymore. He is but a civilian now, and to be treated330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpIlkqMJtr
as such.”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKfEc5XMYg
“Yeah, that part is also correct,” mumbled Harigar Rhim.330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSJhTGljVa
Dhanel Marce paced back and forth almost like teasing, till he came to a slow stop330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEfN8IiQAR
and with his back now turned to all of them he asked: “What would you then suggest330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhnIocr7JE
Celle?”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdVUnkiweO
“We are all aware of our instructions; we are not to be seen under any circumstance330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuA5lFDahQm
during our stay in this forsaken area, and if such thing comes to pass then those330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgsvc5PZk6
unfortunate enough to gaze upon us are to be dealt with. To not be left in any condition330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtX3NRSAf4
where their mouths could tell what their eyes saw. As often must be Sir - the payment330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEljKO4grKa
of few to keep the many safe.”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomwp7b4mkr
“Are you suggesting then that we should take care of Red right here and now?” asks330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoXKEQS3D5
Harigar Rhim while looking at Dhanel Marce “I doubt he will go down as a civilian,330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQCohnP26Y
but hey, you have the rank so go on ahead” the black-cloaked swordsman then turns330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMARWYy2yQs
his back to Celle and moves closer to Lorian.330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKBK6NRo3E
“Now this should be something.”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJDnngMg91
“This is ridiculous...” Deena exhales “captain?”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0K8S5kBBE
“Our orders were clear were they not? Perhaps they were orders for me alone to330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPSnyQtgF0
carry?” Celle had on her face that typical smug expression of hers, something already330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLuvx49dWe
too familiar to all those inhabiting her circle “I will make sure to bring these issues to330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10iR9kolVv
his majesty more often.”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Kf1kWhUZS
“You are such a bitch sometimes” Deena spoke openly while Red just stood there,330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgKFI258ie
in the middle of the whole scene, surrounded by the five, with Dhanel Marce slightly330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI83tbuSkbt
farther away than the rest.330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcQKXuKFgw
He stood and watched with his feet deeply rooted into that scarred soil, for his eyes330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxbq0q6TQv
alone could do all the necessary movements this moment required.330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxeTyuQbLq
“You used to serve the Hand, yes?” Celle asked, “So you know how it must go.”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXCGRxfoJX
“Impressive.” Red finally said, “You really gobble up all that kingly shit, don’t you?”330Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnKHUnlodv
