[QUOTE="megamania, post: 2078876, member: 9255"] UNDER A DARKSUN SEGMENT 140 “THE SKY DRAGON” “This is a dangerous distraction. Who is to say she just happened to be here?” asked Huerroan. The elf was dressed in his tribal colors of blue with pieces of wood for accents. Garrisaun smiled. He knew his first Lt. meant well but he did not know Belinda. For a human, she was special. He had met her about six years ago. She was young then and easy to impress. He himself was not yet a leader. His father, the Sky Dragon, master of the Sky Sprinters Tribe, was still alive and disproved of his friendship with the human girl. “Have your way with her then leave her. She is human trash. She will slow you down.” He used to say. After the third visit to Salt View, Garrisaun and Belinda were drunken and got married. The week was something the village would not soon forget but why the Sky Dragon’s business was done with the mage he left. She tried to keep up with him but within the hour was falling behind. By the end of the day, she was no longer visible on the horizon. That was six years ago. Now he was the Sky Dragon. Now he led the elves of the Sky Sprinters. He understood what his father spoke of but he longed to be with her. He had to know what she was doing in Balic. “Jassaun reports she has made it to the nobles section. When the templars moved to stop her she left in a hurry.” Says Huerroan as he mentally speaks with the tribe. “She always did have a way with the authorities.” Belinda could not afford to have the templars stop her to question her. They may recognize her or steal a surface thought and know her purpose- both immediate and over all. To be searching for lost friends is one thing but to be a part of the Veiled Alliance and Bodach Sentinels was another. If she was lucky, she would be in the arena entertaining the crowd and not killed outright. After a few tunnels are passed, she climbs a new staircase and discovers herself to be confronted by a large heavily scarred ½ Giant. Behind him, she sees templars. “great” she says under her breath. “You go wrong way. You turn or I turn you.” “I am very sorry.” And she turns away to get away from him quickly and bumps into a templar. The templar’s eyes are vacant. He opens his mouth to say something but nothing but a gargle comes out. “By the four winds- you have no tongue!” she exclaims. “I warned you!” she hears from behind. Belinda runs for it. The ½ Giant follows her. She takes the first steps down and she spots a blue area within the dark shadows. Her ectoplasm skin spreads out from the base of her spine. She blends into the shadows and becomes silent as she goes down the steps. The ½ giant begins to give chase then suddenly stiffens up and gurgles. He drops to his knees then all fours. At this point she can see three Sky Sprinters with bloodied daggers. “Great. Now I’m really in for it.” “Garrisaun wishes to speak with you human.” [/QUOTE]
