Seconds past.  The dwarf didn’t come back out.Vlad looked at Kham.“Don’t look at me.” Kham had Ilmarė in his arms.  “I’m worried they’ll eat her or something.”“I’ve got it.” Vlad held Grungronazharr before him as he stepped into the burning hut. The flames parted.Beldin carried the unconscious woman over his shoulder, but he was trying to find a path out.  He dragged a chest with his free hand. “She was trying to drag this chest out!” It was too awkward for Beldin to do both at the same time without getting burned. “This way!” Vlad waved his sword into the wall of flames and a path opened.  Beldin leaped through the flames with the woman in his arms.Vlad grabbed the chest and dragged it out through the flames.Sebastian’s wings were folded, but he still looked a hellish beast.  He tipped a healing potion to the woman’s lips.  Her eyes fluttered, then widened as she took in the dark-kin’s demonic form.When she caught sight of Vlad dragging out the chest, she shouted something.  The woman opened the chest and took out its contents.  Within was a skull, still intact.  She kissed the skull and reverently replaced it in the chest. Beldin nodded appreciatively. “They worship their ancestors as dwarves do.”“Let’s hope she’s willing to put in a good word for us,” said Kham.Vlad was busy trying to put out the flames.  “With who?”“With them.”Kham jabbed a thumb in the direction of forty angry warriors armed with short spears.</blockquote>
