[QUOTE="talien, post: 3966718, member: 3285"] [b]Terror in Freeport - Part 8a: The Serpent’s Nest[/b] Ilmarė had tracked Egil while he was on an errand for the Temple of Althares. He disappeared down an alleyway and she lost track of him, only to discover he had been spotted in the street near the Office of Records. She tracked him to the sewers and found a piece of Egil’s robe The elorii’s superhuman senses immediately detected the outline of a door. But it was too easy. The door was a trap, placed to lure the unwise into certain doom, she was sure. Only a fool would fall for it. There was a bang. Ilmarė could hear a muffled, familiar voice on the other side of the door. She opened it. Out spilled Beldin and Vlad. They blinked up at Ilmarė. “Ilmarė!” said Vlad with a smile. His armor was rent in several places. It looked as if the Milandisian had been dumped into a meat grinder. Bijoux and Sebastian dragged out the mangled form of Calactyte. Kham sauntered out behind them. “What happened to you?” “Remember the crushing machine that Ambrose designed for the Brother of the Yellow Sign?” asked Beldin. Ilmarė nodded. Beldin dusted himself off. “Now we know how it works.” Ilmarė bent down to inspect the ss’ressen. “He’s still alive?” she asked in disbelief. Bijoux nodded. “I have done the best I can. We must get him to the Temple of Althares so he can recuperate.” “Maybe not,” said Sebastian. “Egil betrayed us. I don’t know if we can trust anyone at the Temple.” “Egil?” asked Ilmarė. “He was in there with you?” Vlad rose to his feet. “At least, someone we thought was Egil.” “Here.” Kham handed Bijoux a card. “Show this at the Pale Plate. They’ll put you up in a safe house.” ”I’ll go with her,” said Sebastian. “It will take two of us to carry him.” They both put one arm under Cal’s bloodied shoulders. “I think I know where the real Egil is,” said Ilmarė. “And judging by the scraps of clothing I’ve found, there won’t be much left of him if we don’t hurry.” “If Egil is still alive, I bet the impostor is with him.” Kham loaded two of his pistols to explain what he would do when he found him.
