FitzTheRuke
Legend
Lionel had nearly disappeared over the top of the well when Morgan tore the magic from his levitation. He was about thirty feet above the shallow rocky pool and he fell, nearly crashing into Tommi, who was climbing the rope in the style he had used to win a rope-climbing race in Daggerford, a year or two ago.
Morgan had a momentary flash of regret as his mind's eye saw the potential for Lionel to fall to his death in the cold clear water below, or worse - to strike Tommi and have them both fall to destruction. He was somewhat relieved when Lionel caught the rope mid-air and began to scramble once more toward the top. He was making a sort of growling noise that was both deeper and louder than anything that seemed natural for the small fellow.
Tommi stopped climbing and braced for impact when Lionel had fallen toward him, but as Lionel caught the rope and clambered upward, Tommi started moving again, with renewed speed. He could almost reach Lionel's feet...
Above, Escella dashed across the old dirt floor of the Lodge's kitchen, and she climbed quickly over and around the debris of the fallen pass-over bridge betwen the two buildings. She was nearly there as Lionel climbed out of the well, his eyes glowing red and his face twisted unnaturally with frustration.
