“Could it be?” mumbled Dhanel Marce340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnn5AKoXklG
as he was the only one keeping his more340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KupV2Xccs
relaxed approach, while the rest quickly340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCUdvn3ox7
assumed a much more prepared stance.340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeiITeESGE
Harigar Rhim drew his sword as fast as340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMvJo5RnOB
his eyes travelled through that dark, while340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJif7ZcLuQ
standing right next to him, Lorian already340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Grt64SS5r
had his weapon at the ready. Dhanel340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp81Eelz05Z
Marce did not even consider holding340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRoAB80XQI
his blade once. A few more unsettling340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP29xWb4JMp
seconds of silence and then a rising flame340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9QWk4Kbyl

is a most familiar flame to some of them,340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIibcxC5Wv
even if it is one not seen in quite a while.340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtncqVLrPFY
A peculiar flame, a different kind of340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjHHPS6ySI

earn but worthy to master that currently340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF1k5OCkJV

for it is named after some sort of ´deity´340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNFtxdkd5x

such divinity for it is a fire that does not340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkoxhUwqEd

Folklore maybe? Perhaps.340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObD53fYilZ
Regardless, that red glowing stone was340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBSeXVpYTm
long ago recovered by a couple of young340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QVgX3FWV6

With his back turned to them but in340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGe1Fsj5RTP
an inviting manner, as if he was almost340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUiXGjNJ1l
waiting for them, as he too faces that340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYzCVk4nkm

up one more time as if calling them once340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZwTvBj8zh

“Red...” said Deena as she slowly puts her weapon to rest. Harigar Rhim also340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnf8TGAp7o
sheathed his blade but the remaining two did not. Lorian looked back at Dhanel340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dfSUzbbyg
Marce, and only after this one nodded did he do the same. Celle however would stay340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dyF7iEi4p

“Red…not entirely unexpected I suppose.” Dhanel Marce takes a few steps forward340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MvUfgkdwU
as the hooded figure gently turned around.340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOC3M3PWP3
He is not wearing any mask. The fire he carries on his back diminished as he took340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1N8lgPfsj6
some steps towards them. Both men met halfway, under rain and lightning, and now340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJL8W1j5w2G
fire too; they stared at each other leaving the rest in quiet contemplation. Short words340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TYww5EtbT
were exchanged between them that no one else was able to hear and after that, the two340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAymsXDXlZ1
approached the rest of them.340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmubB6ID7U2
Greetings took place among the already familiar faces, but they were not overdone.340Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoqn9ikfv9
