Not really.399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQKwJrRbOL
And that Red, is how we lost Elistia.”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWGJWO4yU2
Red soaked it all in for a short moment, but there was no time for more, as it was399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qzFP9Ci2Q
now the turn for Harigar Rhim to interrupt...399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfimbMY0VSk
“Boss!” Dhanel Marce looks at him “We really need to get going now.”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19i0UCn9A5
... the sky goes white once again... lightning strikes with the most thunderous of399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4XPNcRcgj
roars... this time at the very top of the fearful mountain... so hard that they could swear399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5if9v068IM
some pieces of rock were cleaved right of it...399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cRO4oKEFx
“What do you mean get moving?” asked Celle “What about this situation? We are399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpIH3C4OC7
here brazenly wasting time talking with this riffraff, indulging him instead of coming399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBEJBwAxcI
to terms with how to handle this. Is any reminder needed that we are on a mission?399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5lz8GBPmi
Acting on secrecy?”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUrwdbq2KX
“Celle is right.” Deena took up the word “I guess we cannot proceed without399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhF7zLFR7v
addressing this.”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe28tRcuL9Z
“Why are you here?” Celle persisted...399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoCJi9KJgS
“Red can often be found here.” Deena looked at Dhanel Marce as if asking399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3QBPpjSzJ
permission to proceed with every word offered “He is originally from this town and399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMF5Kkw5QSb
more often than not, he comes here to walk these empty streets, so us finding him here399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQymOQlP4tn
tonight is not that out of the ordinary nor coincidental. Ever since tragedy befell this399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAhtsfDSrA
place he has been coming here, and none of us has ever asked, as we could understand399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRy6pULqdhU
the reason somewhat.”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwF3moN5kil
Deena continued reluctantly, as she now looked at the red-haired man “Sometimes399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfjg1joAae
he would disappear for days and in the end, we would always find him here when duty399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsfxoaCGaO
called. It is not that uncanny to find him here tonight. I think none of us is all that399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgmFBtWx5M
surprised...”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX1XK2hrKu
“Aye, I’ll admit to that.” Harigar Rhim looked at them all, as he scratched the back399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCw5VKHlqG
of his head.399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncpefWf0Is
“That may be” Celle took a few steps “but there is still the “detail” of the399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWo7B6AbRKb
inconspicuously of our presence here, and this man regardless of his past or bond to399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtsSvuJUhB
any of you, is not with the Hand anymore. He is but a civilian now, and to be treated399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntECS9XM17
as such.”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SD29Ubyel
“Yeah, that part is also correct,” mumbled Harigar Rhim.399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMnofHQNIA
Dhanel Marce paced back and forth almost like teasing, till he came to a slow stop399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSHiVYMnB0
and with his back now turned to all of them he asked: “What would you then suggest399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihODlZe1Z2
Celle?”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1DFwdC7pz
“We are all aware of our instructions; we are not to be seen under any circumstance399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncrpmJy79o
during our stay in this forsaken area, and if such thing comes to pass then those399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROqgWmq1ls
unfortunate enough to gaze upon us are to be dealt with. To not be left in any condition399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMdwMZLzJg
where their mouths could tell what their eyes saw. As often must be Sir - the payment399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbww8XyJVjG
of few to keep the many safe.”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdChL7Hq8T
“Are you suggesting then that we should take care of Red right here and now?” asks399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABH1C9tASC
Harigar Rhim while looking at Dhanel Marce “I doubt he will go down as a civilian,399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjhG6g8SOO
but hey, you have the rank so go on ahead” the black-cloaked swordsman then turns399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd35V23S3H6
his back to Celle and moves closer to Lorian.399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbclJZAhJqu
“Now this should be something.”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsQyT1vKUc
“This is ridiculous...” Deena exhales “captain?”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPLR1cFyEX
“Our orders were clear were they not? Perhaps they were orders for me alone to399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKn6tCCUOZI
carry?” Celle had on her face that typical smug expression of hers, something already399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIACwEdqzye
too familiar to all those inhabiting her circle “I will make sure to bring these issues to399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ANmfreMYc
his majesty more often.”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTBA4laS9t
“You are such a bitch sometimes” Deena spoke openly while Red just stood there,399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyl1v2604t
in the middle of the whole scene, surrounded by the five, with Dhanel Marce slightly399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE12Rs5NUn6
farther away than the rest.399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0yWl5cJYN
He stood and watched with his feet deeply rooted into that scarred soil, for his eyes399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvToD8shbOm
alone could do all the necessary movements this moment required.399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajBr5dHNGn
“You used to serve the Hand, yes?” Celle asked, “So you know how it must go.”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TDlyaMmLn
“Impressive.” Red finally said, “You really gobble up all that kingly shit, don’t you?”399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUt5NPCCJh
