She pushed on his chest while turning him about. Then did the same to Han. "Go!"
723Please respect copyright.PENANAmAhCoEi82o
"I resent being-"
723Please respect copyright.PENANArIKwCJU0j1
She growled at him. The Ancient side threatened to rip through her layers of self-control.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA1ztOgooOR6
She grabbed their arms, flipping them over twenty feet away, onto the soft grasses.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA95FMhKrERv
The spider-nab dropped out of the tree. She growled at it, unable to speak. Her body dripped with sweat. Daggers in hand.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAnP8ouZZczr
I like this side of you. It's amusing to me, Unnamed said.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAhYtnqD8MVY
Just shut up.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA8eri4u4nYm
It lunged at her aiming for her head.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA6PlzYB0Iec
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?
723Please respect copyright.PENANAa7soKCXiq6
Parcival and Han ran over.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAWXgv0EoJxP
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAtQWNw1QyFd
It hissed low raising on its back legs, she rolled to the side, but not before its fangs sank into her arm.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA9UB2eRvu7N
She screamed.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAp44YIUz0Ep
The poison already was paralyzing her arm, it burned. She went down to her knees, hands propped on the soil. The blood lust vanished.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAsLHyc9i1Gz
"Merryn!"
723Please respect copyright.PENANAR8xpK3DDfe
Han bounded over. Could only see his furry feet. He set his hands on her shoulders, a warming sensation spread down her back.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAdVB8hNg4rx
She coughed.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAI5WYqD7x5h
The spider-nab let out an airy squeal.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAWEIxtlLGdS
"Die already!" Parcival poked its abdomen with his saber.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAJwhR34fg4P
The Adapts are wrong. Humans aren't week. She smiled a tiny bit.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAoQdi3Ub0zv
The warmth receded, as a burning starting at the base of her spine pushing it away.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA3qA4dxDkRO
"It's not working! Parcival quit playing with it and kill it already."
723Please respect copyright.PENANAXumMAb0vBQ
She sank down on her stomach. So tired now.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAodivSXwA2z
Her heartbeat in forefront, slowed.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAMzo2sAjwjU
Thud-thump.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAOnJyH36xQQ
The spider-nab fell down into its own body fluids, as its appendages were chopped off. Good.
723Please respect copyright.PENANACrNb72VeRA
Idiot, should have taken the mountain route. Gods hex it all! If it ... get's free they'll die too.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAfpOYoQJyOv
Thud-thump.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAWS2ewqZB6U
One of them snorted. "You call that playing?"
723Please respect copyright.PENANAnnFEWzDeNV
"Can you fix this?"
723Please respect copyright.PENANAQZsrsdfl2t
"No, it's too hard. She needs a higher tier priest. I'm more of a scribe then a healer."
723Please respect copyright.PENANAURoLp3eBy5
"Leave me."
723Please respect copyright.PENANA2Kqptvpqbr
"Did you say something?" One of them said, as to who, well, they both sounded metallic.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA20z7qk56mP
"She's becoming cold. Hurry up!"
723Please respect copyright.PENANALoRqxkxGNH
The burning poison spread into her torso, then to her toes.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA57tx9R8wTZ
Thud-thump.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAZjOugmEzkT
"Need to hurry, her aura is fading."
723Please respect copyright.PENANA1IPhSa9Rap
"She's delirious."
723Please respect copyright.PENANAu14cJdwVvg
One picked her up. She shuttered as the touch sent a shock into the biten sholder.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAWLiyiDOIJA
"Sorry."
723Please respect copyright.PENANAZHVZEaTCp7
Some use I am, falling to poison of all things.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAY9OR4zpQue
Curses and angry words filled her ears.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAa2eAo5Gsz9
Thoughts became heavy after this and her eyesight cloudy. She closed them.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAZfzY2bbNwD
You dare to die on me vessel? I'm not done! Answer me now!
723Please respect copyright.PENANATOEKCFWAK8
"Merryn! Don't give way to sleep!"723Please respect copyright.PENANAwC9FFd2ZI4
723Please respect copyright.PENANA1SXSZ7paIp
Shaking.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAU7oOcMmFX9
Thud.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAMR13Uf2d53
The darkness gathered from all sides, each sense faded in turn until just the darkness remained.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAZJBjSXvDIw
Silence.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAF5jQ22cbRa
####
723Please respect copyright.PENANAoCFmXmbtL9
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAtp8YEKoSsk
Where am I?
723Please respect copyright.PENANA5YGc2nRAsF
All looked different, had a gray tint to it like when at night. She stood behind Parcival.
723Please respect copyright.PENANADwJX68JnPu
He shook ... my body?
723Please respect copyright.PENANAG2MTa8t7fH
Then shouted while he carried her as he ran towards a dirt road off to the east.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAfwINc8rENC
She was pulled out along with them, so stopped trying to walk.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAwuCHZhzGxo
I hope they figure out my body needs to be sealed or Unnamed will come out. Probably kill them. Why?!
723Please respect copyright.PENANAnJ1ZuAcpiC
There were threads of energy connected to the body. They were so transparent that they were easy to miss.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA63dJCIgVGP
My fingers. She formed a fist and thrust her right spirit arm to the side.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAxIvTN9LTiC
Nothing.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAce0x3duDvo
Now what?
723Please respect copyright.PENANAVubgKqIkj0
Energy. What was it mom said about this again?
723Please respect copyright.PENANASvXMkcIz5U
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAOLnNEZaz4J
Energy. Our souls are energy, with bodies of flesh to ... to what?
723Please respect copyright.PENANAHUDxfTFeVO
Memories were as slippery now as an interrupted dream.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAAPvVxM9RfR
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA2Y3WR2guQT
Hum. Some used treestone but it wasn't the same it didn't collect the light spirts energy as well.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAkn4IWHIdpl
What was I doing?
723Please respect copyright.PENANAAsuq7y0N15
Part of her wanted to wander inside.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA9r34HIPH3r
The priest looked straight at her.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAkmMHH4Pamm
Can he see me?
723Please respect copyright.PENANA5NsPrsjkOZ
He visibly paled. Then began talking rapidly to tall armored man and the puffy cathet man.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAvM4DVXfXhW
They all went inside, pulling her with.
723Please respect copyright.PENANALspjYC4OrF
Ick. Her body was swollen and seeped blood from her mouth and nose. Yuck.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAUXW2k1rMRI
She backed away as far as the thread would allow.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAP58PAZwskP
Her body twitched and jerked.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAe0NE27z3dq
Oh. Right. That's what I've been doing.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAwH3Caslxs7
She jumped and flung both arms up.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAtuKVgtx5BR
Nothing. Again?
723Please respect copyright.PENANA9dA77FPoqm
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAV5qNXrbxPG
All three yelled and backed off from the body.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAoaB8BgzyvM
Oops.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAvzvuSWjXEh
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAZmDrJkPx1P
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA63n66WVsJD
He pointed to the armored man, who nodded and placed her body there on her back.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA2fONKNkkiy
The priest talked some more, and they all sat down. The priest at the North end of the rune, Parcival west and Han East.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAxydtEC0vjP
It was difficult to watch, she squeezed her eyes shut.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAgc6cPxaTRi
When she opened them her body's eyes opened as well.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA23t5tYjwTs
All three sat around her cross-legged, they startled when the body's eyes opened.
723Please respect copyright.PENANANgXXBgrWuh
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAARmdT5yG3n
I'll just sit here, trying to move just upsets them.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA6xrkEvqfi0
She sat beside the armored man. He shivered.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAMvnL5Amvfh
A bright beam extended out of the priests palms seconds later the same from the others.
723Please respect copyright.PENANACzJMu7dvvw
The beams intersected together over her torso.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAHinivJrSch
Her body writhed.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA5jvj3OWC1B
Vines sprouted from under the body and whipped out at the three, coiling around them.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA2QQazIDx5j
That can't be good. That's right, for good or ill, I'm that things vessel, must be looking for energy.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAFNvXA9KKHb
But ... why care? A new pulling sensation different from the darker ancient one tugged.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAhz3A6YjuMu
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANASQ507tDT9Q
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:
723Please respect copyright.PENANAA1nOTLpJ84
"Come."
723Please respect copyright.PENANAAL6El4KIbV
She held back just shy of taking his hand. Tears wet her cheeks. Grandfather. She shook her head slowly.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAYSDHrc7Rap
He nodded and turned back into the tree. It dipped back down, vanishing.
723Please respect copyright.PENANASxBPqDnAl8
Twisting around, the men struggled under the vines. She frowned. Why are they so important?
723Please respect copyright.PENANAm9Hvs43JX2
Yes. The god. The weakened god. Was it trying to take their energy?
723Please respect copyright.PENANAeATNgX9UVj
She pushed it aside and went over to her body. She gathered the threads in both hands and yanked on them. Come on!
723Please respect copyright.PENANAjDm2g7tef3
The body twitched.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAirhk6mZY3C
Vines erupted out from her mouth, they wrapped her body covering it. While the other ones tightened. The vines glowed and Han slumped over.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAdKG9OnpmJZ
Must do something! But what?
723Please respect copyright.PENANAJYzSYZ977k
The priest jumped up, tensing up his arms.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAbAxijGLO0M
That is it!
723Please respect copyright.PENANAxNmsYGNtXb
Sweat ran down his face as he tensed against the bonds.
723Please respect copyright.PENANASN3AcB1EeR
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAZMieqMCXE1
Turning back, the priest was glowing. The vines split, showing a glowing white hand.
723Please respect copyright.PENANARF0m9eYedc
I see, he used a light spell to cut it. Clever. Light has heat as well.
723Please respect copyright.PENANABGTm8em3OD
He freed the others, than walked over in front of her then pointed at the body.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAs6ddhdUaUO
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAMj26WFgGYD
I'm not going back in that!
723Please respect copyright.PENANAQDaT4anMeS
He looked at her and pointed to it.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAiZtpwsDbNw
What? What do you want? I can't go back in. Right?
723Please respect copyright.PENANAHuNjZW0LJF
She shuttered.
723Please respect copyright.PENANACE9vSxPyGF
The man in armor came and gingerly picked up the body, placing it again on the rune.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA89ZmqON9A9
She moved forward following it some.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA0ofaytEfli
They talked again and started up the bright beam again. This time finishing and covering the body.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAx6X7xTDzwp
The thread shortened dragging her toward it.
723Please respect copyright.PENANATmVmTDoJNy
No! I changed my mind! She clawed at the smooth marble unable to grip it.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAc9QjpahXmC
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.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAWSn8f6UlsN
A final tug pulled her back in.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAOD5F8PaCBh
The world flooded back, lights, sounds, color.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAvb9D4F4cEQ
Pain.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA0uPM3e2ASY
Everything is pain.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA1qQdi3lJuU
Her body twitched.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAPh4KKq50N8
Han had his hands on her chest, they glowed green.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAVGsoUQkWvG
No, let me die!
723Please respect copyright.PENANA2Y6su5TLc7
A touch.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAkiiP3j4vYC
The man ... Parcival. He held her.
723Please respect copyright.PENANANffb9hxKlD
"Stop scaring me like that," he said.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA0koTYq714c
A croaking sound came from her was she tried to speak. She coughed and spewed out a mouthful of blood.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAmOSBVQCyQK
He stiffened. "Get over here and heal her all ready!"
723Please respect copyright.PENANAwXApXQYtF4
"Of course," a gravely voice said. She turned her head a little. Ah, the priest.
723Please respect copyright.PENANASocbePBesp
Her body strained to bend during a spasm, her back cracked.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAzebHW4ukIX
"Yaaaa!"
723Please respect copyright.PENANAWtSLQYbIbE
The wall. My back hit the wall.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAPlQBszYvMf
Tears squeezed out, as all of the pain scorched through her. She clenched her jaw.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA8PuXToaTHn
"Don't let her move, she's still close to death. Keep her sill."
723Please respect copyright.PENANAJWdsVFnq3i
Parcival's huge hand hovered over her face, then rested on the crown of her head the other pushed down on her stomach.
723Please respect copyright.PENANASAEdJtZN6y
"Stop moving," the priest said.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA8e61GMmlXP
"Shhhh."
723Please respect copyright.PENANAypobVpAEWe
She huffed. It did hurt less being still. Or was that the healing spell?
723Please respect copyright.PENANA9l3adbP3C2
Regardless a not so bad numbness seeped in. Her face relaxed, she unclenched her jaw.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA5RxteIzWHv
Hans face hovered over. "How do you feel now?"
723Please respect copyright.PENANAIBMrU0J2vP
"Numb."
723Please respect copyright.PENANAavWJarLPMY
He managed to pale under the fur. He looked at the priest who shook his head.
723Please respect copyright.PENANA7HqVl0eVX9
"Go grab the long flat board in the other room."
723Please respect copyright.PENANAcHLCHNKvFW
Han came back a while later, holding it. They held her neck and back with their hands, then slid her on it.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAcOZxyx5e6U
It pinched. But do-able.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAucYwF46Un2
They took her to a room with a small bed and lifted her on it.
723Please respect copyright.PENANArZ9HM9RCb4
"Go now, I'll tend to her. Get some rest," the priest said.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAg4oY1tKsaU
Later they left, he closed the door, then came back.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAvbcNONL5u7
"What to do with you?" He brought a thin object from under the left side if his robe.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAMnABKmsYyK
Its handle that showed shone in the candle light.
723Please respect copyright.PENANAlGxHgQ2x2Q
She flinched and was rewarded with a bolt of pain that sucked away her breath.
723Please respect copyright.PENANACZxA1WF63Q
"If I heal you that thing lives. If I let you die it will be free. Correct?"
723Please respect copyright.PENANAoqBToNJUAY
He stuck his face up into hers. "Why do you host an evil spirit? I can see it, it disgusts me!"
723Please respect copyright.PENANAr7nUaKQKRY
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!
723Please respect copyright.PENANAC2z7SamfAY
