Ethan - I can't believe the time has finally come. I will avenge my father today. Here it is, Ereadus's castle.167Please respect copyright.PENANAojtMKXXLG4
167Please respect copyright.PENANAI0laUOKrLC
Lunadea - It's less creepy than I thought.167Please respect copyright.PENANAZeRNMTD1py
167Please respect copyright.PENANAUvE2wnrHJS
Ethan - There he is.167Please respect copyright.PENANAPYIBty3Npz
167Please respect copyright.PENANALAnOZ9C9Qp
The group reunites at Ereadus's castle, a large, dark castle in the woods. The rain outside made it seem even more foreboding, but the sun was still shining, giving the castle a somewhat normal appearance.167Please respect copyright.PENANAqcexsZnES7
167Please respect copyright.PENANAEiQGtg2etp
Sammy - Took your sweet time getting here.167Please respect copyright.PENANAKo5PYbHtid
167Please respect copyright.PENANASk9KUGnANm
Lunadea - Do you always have something to say?167Please respect copyright.PENANAul0IMAWSIz
167Please respect copyright.PENANAcb102DdNNx
Sammy - You are a Dämoneneko? Interesting people you gather, Ethan.167Please respect copyright.PENANAWRIampZ7UH
167Please respect copyright.PENANAksc92VDJkt
Lunadea was getting defensive.167Please respect copyright.PENANAE9ZNa3P5uK
167Please respect copyright.PENANApmHmwtQHz5
Lunadea - Does that bother you?167Please respect copyright.PENANAtUwQbqJaO4
167Please respect copyright.PENANAEhERVfgPAo
Sammy, with a dismissive tone, answered167Please respect copyright.PENANAGNITSF9q0n
167Please respect copyright.PENANAcKzHc7pZ2a
Sammy - Bother me? Pfft! I don't care. You could be the Mad King himself, I have no such feelings.167Please respect copyright.PENANAqd0eQgvPWO
167Please respect copyright.PENANAo7wSaAsJg5
Lunadea, feeling offended, was about to retort, but Dorian intervened.167Please respect copyright.PENANAGZYje55voW
167Please respect copyright.PENANA9Wla8aP3WO
Dorian - It's okay, Luna. Do you want to lead the group Sammy?167Please respect copyright.PENANAGN766unwGo
167Please respect copyright.PENANAHUgvPZtNra
Sammy - I'm not exactly a leader, so once we're inside, you guys should probably stay out of my way.167Please respect copyright.PENANADmcsNRTMmt
167Please respect copyright.PENANAL3hzY9fxYe
Ethan - We'll just have to be on our guard. Let's go inside.167Please respect copyright.PENANA58UxLhxxo2
167Please respect copyright.PENANAsjqIGSf8xb
The group agrees and opens the castle doors. When they enter, they see a bunch of undead bodies destroyed on the ground.167Please respect copyright.PENANAC7fW97QUIz
167Please respect copyright.PENANAnq6GaRbzov
Dorian - What happened here?167Please respect copyright.PENANAwOLbhD3UDT
167Please respect copyright.PENANAlBY6HDPMpY
Sammy - Looks like there was some fighting here already. Maybe someone else decided to help the kid?167Please respect copyright.PENANAmMtIgw0z3b
167Please respect copyright.PENANATYc88oXFPE
Ethan - That's not possible. Nobody else knew about the kid.167Please respect copyright.PENANA04nlo30HLY
167Please respect copyright.PENANAVUaSTdUbwS
Lunadea - Maybe the mother took matters into her own hands?167Please respect copyright.PENANAvnEXLcZvuR
167Please respect copyright.PENANAw7C6Pu8RQY
Ethan - I doubt it...167Please respect copyright.PENANA3SDUDFAzn1
167Please respect copyright.PENANAtwWQhihcnx
As they continue walking, a trapdoor suddenly opens beneath their feet and they all fall into a pit that is about five meters deep, except for Sammy, who managed to turn into smoke at the sound of the trapdoor.167Please respect copyright.PENANA5iExVvpvra
167Please respect copyright.PENANAzJ6fJGo6Nd
Sammy - Looks like you guys are in a pickle.167Please respect copyright.PENANAd5lbVXZApt
167Please respect copyright.PENANACvouFAJImM
Ethan - Are you guys okay?167Please respect copyright.PENANADbJj9OWzMG
167Please respect copyright.PENANAxX9uI3nSmo
Dorian - I'm okay, Luna?167Please respect copyright.PENANAQagXATdmmQ
167Please respect copyright.PENANAH3U7ypKZGs
Lunadea - I'm fine, don't worry about me.167Please respect copyright.PENANA4sPMYWihYo
167Please respect copyright.PENANAfa6Ql6hyCr
Ethan - Sammy, can you see anything that could help us?167Please respect copyright.PENANAxAGSXdTgqq
167Please respect copyright.PENANAZS6j4Wdcnx
Sammy - Not really. And to be honest, it's not my problem. I told you guys to worry about yourselves, and within the first two minutes of our 'adventure', you get trapped. I'll be leaving now. Have fun.167Please respect copyright.PENANAjqfi8SK6Ow
167Please respect copyright.PENANARwuZAu7nqR
Lunadea - You can't do that, you jerk! Hey!167Please respect copyright.PENANAQDbjwRYaBW
167Please respect copyright.PENANAFqFwtrqAcD
Dorian - Leave it, Luna... we need to figure out how to get out of here.167Please respect copyright.PENANAmFQ7fpk27t
167Please respect copyright.PENANACa5bq2r0sH
Ethan - I'm sorry, guys. It's my fault. I shouldn't have trusted that guy.167Please respect copyright.PENANABrxqk51C58
167Please respect copyright.PENANAZq8aJuJ62Z
Lunadea - It's not your fault, Ethan. Damn it!167Please respect copyright.PENANAmYDUSAYT8l
167Please respect copyright.PENANAxMzruuvkfZ
As Sammy sprints down the dimly lit corridor. He knows that he is running out of time to rescue the kid, and the thought of failure weighs heavy on his mind. But then he sees it - a glint of silver in the distance. He approaches the door and notices the intricate engravings that adorn its surface. Once he opens the door he is greeted by the sound of rattling bones.167Please respect copyright.PENANAzZnq8vSSMI
167Please respect copyright.PENANAJe8aorN8GY
Sammy reacts before the skeletons lunge at him. He quickly disappears in a cloud of smoke, narrowly avoiding the blades as they swing through the air where he once stood. When he reappears, he unwraps a little bit of his chain and whips them both really fast, his movements precise and efficient.167Please respect copyright.PENANA4r01jm6kSo
167Please respect copyright.PENANArH0QZ5AnAs
With the threat dealt with, Sammy takes a moment to survey the room. It's massive, with high ceilings and a feeling of emptiness that seems to echo through the space. There's not much in the room, just a large bed in the center and a bookshelf against the wall. Strangely, there are no windows in the room - it's as if it was built to be completely sealed off from the outside world. As he looks around, a soft voice speaks from a dark corner of the room.167Please respect copyright.PENANA8qqNuDsie9
167Please respect copyright.PENANAbodbeOdtaf
Mangetsu - Ehm, Mister?167Please respect copyright.PENANAKkmDpb8vJO
167Please respect copyright.PENANAfaiwnseCw9
Sammy readies his chain, prepared to strike whoever is lurking in the corner.167Please respect copyright.PENANACvn5gPbjMd
167Please respect copyright.PENANAzNW32YGIjx
Sammy - Who goes there?167Please respect copyright.PENANA5WFOLatDUk
167Please respect copyright.PENANA1Kciq9S3lP
Mangetsu - I'm Mangetsu! What's your name?167Please respect copyright.PENANA6B6bxmBqQw
167Please respect copyright.PENANAt63iEDlFLw
Mangetsu steps out of the shadows, a friendly smile on her face as she cradles a guitar in her arms. Sammy notices that she is just a little girl, but he doesn't let his guard down.167Please respect copyright.PENANABqboaC7NIg
167Please respect copyright.PENANAKE3u4dER0j
Sammy - Why are you in this castle?167Please respect copyright.PENANAzooGthjzQQ
167Please respect copyright.PENANAVQLLDSMIal
Mangetsu - This is my home!167Please respect copyright.PENANAmzVPLmWT0L
167Please respect copyright.PENANAx7SxuKAWD4
Sammy - So you're Ereadus's daughter?167Please respect copyright.PENANAoCBT2ztmt3
167Please respect copyright.PENANAVaaTIYk6kb
Mangetsu - You know my dad?167Please respect copyright.PENANAaPXcjudfSp

Sammy - Not really, but I'd love to meet him. Do you know where he is?167Please respect copyright.PENANAUsnzJ3kv5a
167Please respect copyright.PENANAeIZCTCyeqN
Mangetsu - Probably in his lab.167Please respect copyright.PENANAFKyCbIijbi
167Please respect copyright.PENANAXoEnqeVVdh
Sammy - Do you know where that is?167Please respect copyright.PENANA0yzEeVQQWj
167Please respect copyright.PENANAwwmWQ8kEVM
Mangetsu - No, my dad doesn't tell me much. Actually, he doesn't talk to me much at all167Please respect copyright.PENANAs4zhbd2FaO
167Please respect copyright.PENANA0RBfA4S7Vh
Sammy - I'm sure it must be hard for you, being a princess in a castle.167Please respect copyright.PENANAKYtrset8m5
167Please respect copyright.PENANAltpmMoie1S
Sammy says in a sarcastic tone.167Please respect copyright.PENANAdsJt3LaF3g
167Please respect copyright.PENANArH8U6wCfzn
Mangetsu just smiles at him.167Please respect copyright.PENANAxYmsCFjpgt
167Please respect copyright.PENANAfUhGGZB95d
Mangetsu - No, really! I have all of them keeping me company.167Please respect copyright.PENANArp60T8ahlf
167Please respect copyright.PENANAawoS6sRzud
Sammy - All... of them?167Please respect copyright.PENANAmKHCgQmMYP
167Please respect copyright.PENANA2evPufICL8
Mangetsu - Yes! I see all kinds of people around me! But only I can see them. It's my gift, dad says.167Please respect copyright.PENANA3noTZ03nsr
167Please respect copyright.PENANACqLbhlcHTt
Sammy - Did you summon those skeletons too?167Please respect copyright.PENANAcN0ExubjUo
167Please respect copyright.PENANAXpbuLJLCjI
Mangetsu - No, no. I can't do things like my dad. I just see them, and they're more human.167Please respect copyright.PENANASko9Ik8OCL
167Please respect copyright.PENANAZyZuP7wKeL
Sammy - Okay, Mangetsu, you're coming with me!167Please respect copyright.PENANAvMPCMZKyaJ
167Please respect copyright.PENANAj8doy76wtO
Mangetsu - I can't, mister. I'm really sorry...but I can't walk anywhere else except my room and the dining hall.167Please respect copyright.PENANAV6QtAJjvcp
167Please respect copyright.PENANAg0OzOcMv9Q
Sammy - I'm sure you'll be fine. I need to speak with your dad and you're going to help me find him.167Please respect copyright.PENANAN4O5WwzRFb
167Please respect copyright.PENANAb5cAWe251B
Meanwhile, in the pit:167Please respect copyright.PENANAWx6NhlTFq8
167Please respect copyright.PENANAL6TO01MZB3
Dorian - I'm not!167Please respect copyright.PENANAcoqEELEJGH
167Please respect copyright.PENANAQTbZr8RHwO
Lunadea - Dorina? Are you ok?167Please respect copyright.PENANA1umcwFLuVK
167Please respect copyright.PENANAxsFWewGhhr
Dorian - We need to find a way out of here.167Please respect copyright.PENANA43DirzfZzf
167Please respect copyright.PENANAb5FIH3hQTD
Ethan - Climb on my shoulders, I'll throw you both out.167Please respect copyright.PENANAAVMWwMJiWh
167Please respect copyright.PENANAzxIWUoaq7R
Lunadea - You want us to leave you here?167Please respect copyright.PENANAH6hycSS5rI
167Please respect copyright.PENANACb6wdvgkVY
Ethan - We don't have a choice. Sammy doesn't know, but he won't be able to defeat Ereadus on his own. You guys need to help him.167Please respect copyright.PENANAXZ5bbPvRf7
167Please respect copyright.PENANAXf96IpJWa5
Dorian - We're not leaving you here, Ethan. And Sammy can wait. He got himself into this situation.167Please respect copyright.PENANAujMmFoOzln
167Please respect copyright.PENANAqyqpZXQRZn
Ethan - Please don't be too hard on Sammy. He's actually a good guy with a tough act.167Please respect copyright.PENANAuW1crJpStg
167Please respect copyright.PENANA5hMGZAiMbP
Suddenly, they hear a voice from above.167Please respect copyright.PENANAoyXBDDuLV0
167Please respect copyright.PENANAqT8W66qhFW
Guard 1 - Captain?167Please respect copyright.PENANASzrlIRJXGe
167Please respect copyright.PENANAUYo01b0qzW
Ethan - Rolfd?167Please respect copyright.PENANAgaIQOooyhx
167Please respect copyright.PENANA84eqJTHxXE
Rolfd - Captain! Thank god we found you!167Please respect copyright.PENANApbQ3IWzvhw
167Please respect copyright.PENANA6QuRfBxhaX
Ethan - What are you guys doing here?167Please respect copyright.PENANApvxLhrGJ23
167Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8A33NKwOD
Rolfd - The village is under attack by the undead. Our fighters are trying to hold them off, but there are too many of them. The mayor sent us to ask for assistance from the captain.167Please respect copyright.PENANAgOjlbteM8l
167Please respect copyright.PENANAdtTDaCmQSc
Ethan - Quick, go find some rope and get us out of here. I'll head back to the village and help out.167Please respect copyright.PENANAOhhuBPpkpG
167Please respect copyright.PENANAQz7NsTxLOp
Deep underground in the castle, Ereadus's lab is bustling with activity. He is working on a body, but he is not alone. Behind him stands a beautiful young woman with long, flowing black hair, dark eyes, and olive skin. In her hand, she holds a jar of sand.167Please respect copyright.PENANAaRP4s13EGd
167Please respect copyright.PENANAg8EVWKjKec
Ereadus looks up at her.167Please respect copyright.PENANAgKshr3Y5Bc
167Please respect copyright.PENANARxFdVzOJ84
Ereadus - It seems there are other people trying to enter my castle. They're not as smart as you. At least you didn't fall for the first trap.167Please respect copyright.PENANASn3MTkFug5
167Please respect copyright.PENANADkjfdrYjQI
Girl - Answer my question.167Please respect copyright.PENANAUtiu5gg7pI
167Please respect copyright.PENANAtDev7P9Ugn
Ereadus - You're pretty skilled, killed all my minions until now. But are you sure you can talk to me like that? What was your name again, little girl?167Please respect copyright.PENANAKiXu31kGmV
167Please respect copyright.PENANAZTeBy9tv4K
Analissa glares at him.167Please respect copyright.PENANA0npMblmIU6
167Please respect copyright.PENANAJZ5L5lkvrB
Analissa - It's Analissa, and please don't waste my time. I kill your minions because they attacked me167Please respect copyright.PENANAQiRknpjiI1
167Please respect copyright.PENANAs0G4JPc7gV
Ereadus - Yes, yes. You have a prince in that jar, huh? What magic sealed him?167Please respect copyright.PENANAT1ATokgGDJ
167Please respect copyright.PENANAjHVj9xP9pv
Analissa - That is not of your concern.167Please respect copyright.PENANArjTH8BPUbq
167Please respect copyright.PENANATEQfvjYO6U
Ereadus - But it is. You come to me, asking for my help. I need to know what sealed him in order to release him.167Please respect copyright.PENANAAv52JAG8jR
167Please respect copyright.PENANAFeIXKWW4lI
Analissa - Engenshi magic.167Please respect copyright.PENANA2MyPpGBr34
167Please respect copyright.PENANABtfYLaWA2q
Ereadus's eyes widen in surprise.167Please respect copyright.PENANAkRiTmrlF17
167Please respect copyright.PENANAdDquN95U1Z
Ereadus - Engenshi? Why would one of 'them' seal away your prince?167Please respect copyright.PENANAlN4PGPJ3RO
167Please respect copyright.PENANAZUZTgBbnn4
Analissa - My prince rebelled against the king... He sent his kind to fight us.167Please respect copyright.PENANA8UuB6SzgZK
167Please respect copyright.PENANAKcoPActJ1E
Ereadus - I heard about a rebelion but that was years ago, i was a kid when that happend. You probably wasent even born. Are you telling me this prince of yours is more than 50 years old?167Please respect copyright.PENANA7gKBwcp9PJ
167Please respect copyright.PENANAcrOZXrWGRw
Analissa - I've had enough! I'm leaving.167Please respect copyright.PENANAZphrqDbK91
167Please respect copyright.PENANAM9IrTENTKe
Ereadus - Wait! I can release your prince.167Please respect copyright.PENANA4axs0mk0fU
167Please respect copyright.PENANAA0STyKg0Yq
Sammy and Mangetsu continue walking through the corridors, searching for Ereadus's lab. Mangetsu looks nervous167Please respect copyright.PENANAIWXDqiCjJG
167Please respect copyright.PENANAE0f5SAHUlY
Mangetsu - I really shouldn't be here, mister. My dad doesn't like it when I escape my room.167Please respect copyright.PENANAW2y7b44zdg
167Please respect copyright.PENANA0LTJs1Fu87
Sammy - Your dad isn't the best, is he?167Please respect copyright.PENANAIsx72GZG28
167Please respect copyright.PENANARAPMyvMTV9
Mangetsu - I wouldn't know. The only people I've met are you and the two other people in the woods the other night.167Please respect copyright.PENANAko95lQ6TnB
167Please respect copyright.PENANAqsohcseZdf
Sammy points to a dark door leading to the basement.167Please respect copyright.PENANA5AU0jnHnrh
167Please respect copyright.PENANAkiaG3a8Wza
Sammy - A little bit cliche for a dark lab, don't you think, Ereadus?.167Please respect copyright.PENANAtue1J0n22j
167Please respect copyright.PENANAicC9Kygpnf
Mangetsu - I can't go in there167Please respect copyright.PENANA3dklaaqcPZ
167Please respect copyright.PENANAhfMHzpSXkc
Mangetsu's face is full of fear and her body starts trembling. Sweat runs down her face.167Please respect copyright.PENANA7wOvN0fO1a
167Please respect copyright.PENANAMj60ZazaG0
Sammy - Hey, hey, look at me. I can't imagine what happened to you, but I promise nothing is going to happen to you down there. I promise this nightmare stops right now. Let's go, and stay close.167Please respect copyright.PENANAebi1q3rrbK
167Please respect copyright.PENANAeFcxmWhQ3y
He starts heading towards the lab, but Mangetsu doesn't move. She's too afraid. Sammy turns to her and looks her directly in the eyes.167Please respect copyright.PENANABlP6YLvdmM
167Please respect copyright.PENANAUHG6q2hCpf
Sammy - Whatever happens, stay close to me. I will protect you, okay?167Please respect copyright.PENANAfIGJSwizgb
167Please respect copyright.PENANA7dSNeSfSKB
Mangetsu - Okay...167Please respect copyright.PENANAdCLKs02tBc
167Please respect copyright.PENANAlxJwis6FVR
Ereadus examines the jar.167Please respect copyright.PENANAKLD60JyBti
167Please respect copyright.PENANAQiV3BfO32v
Ereadus - It's going to be hard, since it's an Engenshi seal. But I might know someone who knows a little bit more about that. I just need to summon her.167Please respect copyright.PENANAIUXRO5rqB6
167Please respect copyright.PENANAGSKQUc3gjc
Analissa - What's the price?167Please respect copyright.PENANAEu0w8L1qGv
167Please respect copyright.PENANA5gDwcRVQb4
Ereadus smiles.167Please respect copyright.PENANABxiFBtAyYr
167Please respect copyright.PENANAK5dUXe3uXq
Ereadus - Price? Of course. Well, if I'm able to unseal your prince, I will find out where he failed. You see, he and I have the same ambition. The price will be you and him working with me to finally kill the king.167Please respect copyright.PENANAZKZYaeifwi
167Please respect copyright.PENANAJPC2YvWpUS
Analissa - You're really as mad as they say you are if you think you can kill the king.167Please respect copyright.PENANAsUgVPbWOfi
167Please respect copyright.PENANAomPO5EPrTt
Ereadus - They called me mad when I didn't have magic. Look at me now. But I see that this conversation has to be stopped for a while. Sammy! What are you doing here? I told you I can't bring her back.167Please respect copyright.PENANA11HEO8nf17
167Please respect copyright.PENANAEYHUoLY71D
Sammy steps forward, his chain at the ready.167Please respect copyright.PENANA86ngnrO8B9
167Please respect copyright.PENANAHuTV5IdQKF
Sammy - Shut your mouth. I need the girl, Ereadus.167Please respect copyright.PENANA1xk5vsDkP6
167Please respect copyright.PENANAozNspIUXf7
Ereadus's eyes widen in shock167Please respect copyright.PENANAvb1WYX9fPd
167Please respect copyright.PENANAk8US3LWaFr
Ereadus - Mangetsu... What is the meaning of this?!167Please respect copyright.PENANANsPaEN9URh
167Please respect copyright.PENANAdabMNasfUN
Mangetsu looks down at the ground, her hands shaking.167Please respect copyright.PENANAfp78mP3SQf
167Please respect copyright.PENANAMuG0uA0ROz
Mangetsu - Sorry! I'm sorry! I'll go back to my room right now.167Please respect copyright.PENANARKN32eGC59
167Please respect copyright.PENANAOkRFtxVBll
Sammy - You stay here. I'm telling you one more time. Give me back the little girl you took from the village.167Please respect copyright.PENANAwl1TvlsErh
167Please respect copyright.PENANAvkUdZCJ6WF
Ereadus's expression turns dark.167Please respect copyright.PENANASV15D1BOA3
167Please respect copyright.PENANAmxNVZWFDkI
Ereadus - Which part? But don't worry about that. You saw my daughter, Sammy. That makes me really mad. I'll deal with you later, Mangetsu. You! You want your prince back? Bring me that guy's head.167Please respect copyright.PENANAjEL4NwnIhH
167Please respect copyright.PENANAkdF81D9Kdb
Sammy and Analissa stand face to face, ready for whatever happens next.
