“Could it be?” mumbled Dhanel Marce313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKV89xwXN9
as he was the only one keeping his more313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJfYDiTHeL
relaxed approach, while the rest quickly313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw38rtClJor
assumed a much more prepared stance.313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXPsJnvsj7
Harigar Rhim drew his sword as fast as313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUsmNr9OFq
his eyes travelled through that dark, while313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrByHNps5E
standing right next to him, Lorian already313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnstOI6u9f
had his weapon at the ready. Dhanel313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwkhzFkpv5
Marce did not even consider holding313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQOMRetz8h
his blade once. A few more unsettling313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZtWKTkHzk

would lure them into a more open area; it313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCeRLnUerq
is a most familiar flame to some of them,313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JCbWy5sHc
even if it is one not seen in quite a while.313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnVenfgCV5
A peculiar flame, a different kind of313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2h8sc0Bmvk

Folklore maybe? Perhaps.313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfo5yWMv61
Regardless, that red glowing stone was313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYu3jjPn0Mn
long ago recovered by a couple of young313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzjqyCh2Nf

With his back turned to them but in313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUoXzcEnBu
an inviting manner, as if he was almost313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18hvDpLoNM

“Red...” said Deena as she slowly puts her weapon to rest. Harigar Rhim also313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvs5xfLwi7
sheathed his blade but the remaining two did not. Lorian looked back at Dhanel313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbzpqlqz0p
Marce, and only after this one nodded did he do the same. Celle however would stay313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2oJWGWX23

“Red…not entirely unexpected I suppose.” Dhanel Marce takes a few steps forward313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrQN0Q5bZh
as the hooded figure gently turned around.313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4FCZb4hXu
He is not wearing any mask. The fire he carries on his back diminished as he took313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQqOhoPzfJ
some steps towards them. Both men met halfway, under rain and lightning, and now313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgnv28U3cb
fire too; they stared at each other leaving the rest in quiet contemplation. Short words313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXC0tVlK4e
were exchanged between them that no one else was able to hear and after that, the two313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76UHOlv51J
approached the rest of them.313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxITKnlcLY
Greetings took place among the already familiar faces, but they were not overdone.313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzBZuAiuwz
