While we are waiting to be called for our match, the others start to submerge me with questions about my relationship with Horgus and on how he train me for almost three years: which type of exercises he suggest me, how many hours at day we do them and, last but not least, how it was to be her lover. I try to avoid answering at the last one, but some of them are really insistent and the only thing that save me from them, is the fact that some employers of the arena come to call some of us for the first four matches, leading the first of us to the arena to accomplish at our role. The rules of the tournament are simple and easy to remember: any match is one against one and no weapons are allowed during it, plus there is a time limit for each match and it settled to be at last no longer than an hour. There are two judges for any match and have the delicate role to verified that no one break the rules and, the most important, to establish who will be the winner in case of reaching the time limit, judging the performance of the two contestants and who of them has demonstrated to be the most powerful and skilled, claiming our victory or our failure. The first match ends in few minutes and I’m not surprised of it: in fact, one of the two contestants is Serpentina, the female naga I notice before we where introduced in the arena and presented by Signis to the spectators. Her foe, if it’s how I can call our opponent during the match, was a felinx, but despite the incredible agility they have, he wasn’t able to face her fast tail and the strength of her coils. In fact, he surrender to her while she was strangling him with her tail, leaving him few chance to free himself from its tight grasp, but the rivalry they showed in the arena, immediately disappear once they are back here in the waiting room.

“Damnnn….I was sure to avoid the grasp of your tail, this time!” the felinx says, massaging his neck.

“You improved a lot, Damian, especially your speed….but you must work harder if you want to beat me!”

“Yeah, yeah, sure….ouch! It hurts everywhere!”

“Sorry….maybe I put too much strength in my tail! What about some hale, later, to let me be forgiven!?”

“Sure thing, my friend! See you tonight at The Anvil!?”

“I’ll be there at nine!”

The felinx nod at her before leaving the room and Serpentina sit on her tail not so far from me. She didn’t look tired after her match, after all it wasn’t a difficult challenge, well, not for someone like her, anyway! In fact, due to the fact she had an easy victory, felinx are considered as very difficult opponents in the arena, because they can mix their extreme and useful agility with the strength they gain following the hard trains that waits everyone who want to start the career of a gladiator, no matter the reason why he, or she, want to do it. I must admit the fact she intrigue me, for two reasons: he first, is because I never had met one of her race before, the second is because I’m electrized by the chance to face her during this tournament. And this is way I take the decision to approach her.

“Easy win for you, today!”

“Maybe….but Damian is getting good fast!”

“Damian….is the name of that felinx!?” I ask her, continuing our conversation.

“Yes….never had met him on the battlefield!?” she ask me, surprised.

I turn my head “I never had take part at tournament outside the league where the City of Rhoonas belongs!”

“That explain a lot….Damian and I are rivals from almost three years.”
“But also good friends, from what I see….” I ask, interrupting her.

“Indeed. We don’t have a Lord to serve, we are both free and we respect each other, till the point we become friends!” she take a break then continue “Only friends….if it’s what you want to ask me!”

“Understand….” I simply reply to her. Damn, I must admit she’s very good at reading other expressions and I’m sure she’s going to be a hard opponent to beat! Too bad I wasn’t able to look at their match, probably I can learn something about her tactics and style from it, but there is nothing I can do….those are the rules and we all have to follow them. While I’m focusing on my thoughts, her question brings me back to reality.

“I notice you were staring at me, before we were introduced in the arena…..why, if I can ask!?

“Uhmmm….nothing, really! I was surprised to see a naga here, it’s the first time I see one of your race in an arena., even, welll….I know about you, someway!”

“Soooorry!? How it can be!?” she ask, perplexed.

“I met your friend Kyla at the hot springs, few days ago, and we talked a little….I can say she was looking pretty excited, when she was talking of you!”

“That girl….” she says, turning away, a little pissed off “she always speaks too much!”

It’s clear for me why she’s reacting like this: even if Serpentina is trying to hide it, by her expression I can tell there is something more than a simple friendship between them and the funny thing is the fact she is thinking that Kyla reveal it to me, when she didn’t! Pondering at the situation, I can’t hold a loud laugh.

“What’s funny for you!?” she asks me, with her cheeks barely flushing and placing her closed hands or her flanks. I’ll try to stop laughing, but the situation is a little too hilarious and it takes a minute before I can finally answer her.

“Sorry….I think you mistaken my words!”

“Mistaken!?”

“Yes….Kyla was looking very proud of being your friend and of your ability….that’s it!”

“Kyla said what!?” she ask me, with her eyes wide open and a little confused “nothing more than this!?”

I nod at her, trying to hold another smile “But your reaction confirm my suspicious….you two are more than friends….or am I wrong!?”

Now, on my face Serpentina can see a malicious smile, while she’s flushing a little embarrassed but not for my words, no, she’s more for the situation she have create right now. A deep silence is now upon us, while the others contestants are all focused on their preparations for their match and no one is paying attention to our talk, just me and her, now caught in a little embarrassing silence that do not want leave us. Taking a deep breath, I talk first.

“Listen….it wasn’t my intention to put you in a so embarrassing situation….I’m sorry for this! Plus, welllll….I’m not the one that can judge you two, especially now that I’m involved in a similar relationship….if I can call it like that….” I say, scratching my head and lowering my eyes with my heart pounding faster.

I don’t know how she will react now, I know how difficult it could be to talk of such things: admit that I’m deeply caught by Colette isn’t easy, both because she’s a woman and because of my recent loss of Horgus. I’m an expert in sentimental relationship and now I’m the first one to be confused for how I’m acting, despite my heart is still wishing for my beloved Horgus return…..something I rationally know will never happen, not now that his corpse lie six feet under the cold earth of a foreign city. The only thing that relieved me a little, is the fact he’s well-known here and this, probably, will mean there will be someone which is going to take care of his tombstone even if I’ll be away from Libidinis. I raise my eyes and look at her, now visibly relieved by my words and I can see she’s trying to put together some ideas and words, because she has a serious expression on her face.

“It’s not your fault….” she say, taking a little break “I mistaken your words and what Kyla told you….you know, we are a couple from long time, but our relationship wasn’t so easy at the begin….”

I look at her, trying to imagine what she’s trying to say. All I can presume, is the fact that her families, or the one of Kyla anyway, had always try to push the two girls away from each other, because a not hidden relationship between two girls is not well accepted in most of the countries I had visited as Lord Barton’s gladiator. Plus, there is the fact that they are from two different races, something considered a taboo in some countries, till the point I heard stories of girls left in the hands of slaves that use them to satisfy ages of carnal privations, that usual lead to the death of the girls. But thanks Goodness, things look different here in the Free City of Libidinis and I had seen it with my own eyes so, probably, here they are more free to live their relationship than elsewhere.

“Don’t worry, Serpentina….” I tell her with my nicest smile “mistakes happened! The important thing is to clarify them! And let me assure you that I will take your relationship secret, if this is the problem!”

“Well, the reason is not exactly that, but….I appreciated it!” Serpentina answer me with a relieved expression on her face. She’s now taking a deep breath and finally, I can see her whole body relaxing as she has avoided the biggest trouble she never had and now I can clearly say that the problem is not the fact they are lovers or because they are from two different species, but it must be something else, something they will never reveal, probably.

“I’m sorry to had made you worried for nothing, Serpentina….wasn’t my intention from the begin!” I apologize to her, when suddenly I heard the usual same male’s voice calling me for my match.

“Must go now….seems like my turn has come! See you later here!” I say to Serpentina just before leave to follow the arena employer.

“About this….would you like to join me, Kyla and Damian at the tavern The Anvil!?”

“Sure thing, Serpentina! It will be a pleasure! At nine, right!?” I reply, waving my hand while I walk along the corridor that leads to the arena’s field.

[hentaiboy69]

Two days have passed form my talk with Signis and Queen Ophala and finally the time is arrived: today, the Summer Festival of the free City of Libidinis begin and with it, many events too but the most waited, surely is the wrestling tournament in the arena: here, many men and women coming from the cities or from the allied kingdoms, will prove their strength and abilities in front of nobles and normal citizens, gathered here attracted by one of the most followed event in the whole continent. And now I’m here, waiting for its begin, in a room crowed by warriors of any race and nations, anyone so different from each other but with the same goal in their mind: the victory! Some do it for their Lords, others for them self, to have their freedom back, and then there are the ones that do it just because they are attracted by the money of the prize….everyone here have a reason, no matter where we from or how our lives are running day after day.

Felinx, elves, humans….more I look around and more much different type of contestants I can see in this room. All of them looks well trained and ready to show it to the crowd that fill the arena, but no one of them is even close comparable to me, or this is what I think till I see her, on the opposite corner of the room: a naga! It’s the first time I see one of their specie, they usually don’t leave in this area of the continent but even if I never talked to her before, I know who she is or maybe, it’s more accurate to tell I can imagine who she is: Kyla’s friend! I must say that I was stunned by the way Kyla describe her to me, but now that I can see her with my own eyes, she looks even more incredible then how I had imagine her: her long tail, almost three meter long, is covered by scarlet scales and looks like a very powerful weapon in a hand to hand confrontation as this tournament is and despite she doesn’t appear so tall, I’m sure she can easily outclass most of the opponents she will face, if she use her tail as support to rise her body. She looks focused on her thoughts, maybe she’s preparing herself for the match and everyone else is doing it right now, anyone in a different way, but for sure, she’s doing it in one I never had seen before: she’s grasping tight a pendant in her left hand, something very important for her, probably, and I wonder what makes it so important to push her to hold it like that. Maybe it’s a gift from someone she is in love or maybe it’s a memory of her family, I can’t know it for sue, but there is no doubt about how precious it is, I can tell it even from the way she’s looking at it, when I notice it’s open and can barely see a picture painted inside it. I can’t tell who’s on that picture, but her expression let me understand that it’s not a simple man or woman on it, but someone very special for her, someone that probably is her reason of life and probably, the reason why she’s taking part at the tournament.

“It’s time! Get ready for the arena!”

A male voice caught my attention. Finally, the moment to be introduced and claimed by the crowd that is filling the arena has come: slowly, any contestant stand up and take his steps to the stone corridor that link this room to the field where everyone of us is impatient to show how powerful we are to the spectators that are waiting us. While we walk in the corridor, I can hear the scrams of the crowd getting louder, till they explode in a thunderous ovation when we finally came out of it and the first of us step on the sand of the arena’s field and at anyone of us that enter in it, the screams get louder, till I make my entry: the arena is rumbling and the excitement of the spectators fill the whole arena. My eyes need few moments to get used to the bright of the outside and I must say that I’m pleasant surprises by what I see. Probably, this arena is half the size of the one of Rhoonas (ones of the biggest, with the two in the Capital of Swabia’s Kingdom) but it’s full to the point that spectators are pressed to each other so much that their number is overwhelming the maximal capacity of the arena. Plus, as it’s not enough, I heard that many others are outside the place watching at the event via special magical instruments that permit to transfer the images in front of them on some special equipment placed outside the arena and in other areas of the city, like the main square or the taverns.

When Prefect Signis stand up and start to talk, the whole arena turns quiet and in any corner of it, people can hear his voice.

“Citizen of the Free City of Libidinis….and all of you that made a long travel from all around the continent to be here at the annual Summer Festival….let me thank you all for being here!”

The sound of a multitude of clapping hands feel the area, while Signis look around the arena with a satisfied smile, then continue.

“Please….my dear friends, save your admiration and cheers for the contestants! We have lot of interesting fighters this year, coming from the entire continent but today, I’m very proud to announce you we have a special guest!”

The crowd is now murmuring, impatient to know who this guest is and all the eyes are now looking carefully at us, one after the other, trying to examine any one of us to discover witch of us is the one Signis is talking about.

“It’s her….her!” some very excited voices claim, after few moments, then Signis take back the words.

“Exactly! I’m proud to announce you all the presence of Lady Dragon, coming directly from the City of Rhoonas! She’s here to fight in the name of her Lord, Sir Barton, that perishes during the travel to reach Libidinis!”

Signis take a short break, just to look around another time, then he speaks again.

“We offer her hospitality and she gently accept to take part at the tournament in name of her Lord and….” he is now looking at me. “I gently accept, uh!?”, I think to myself, remembering my talk with him and Queen Ophala two days ago, when he continues. “and to honor the name of the man she loves, Horgus the Titan!”

Ovations of joy rise immediately from the crowd, as they heard the name of a hero and I’m really surprised by this reaction. Horgus the Titan….it’s the first time I heard my beloved Horgus being named like this and I wonder why Signis do it so sudden, but maybe I’m starting to understand it and soon, my suspect have a confirmation, directly from Signis mouth.

“Someone of you, probably remember him! Till six years ago, Horgus the Titan was a well-known name in any arena of the continent and as you probably know, no one has ever defeated him, till he retired from competition and become an excellent trainer! And today, here at Libidinis, we have his last disciple, Lady Dragon!”

The crowd goes loud then before. All the eyes are now pointed on me, even the others contestants are looking at me, surprised by Signis’ words but probably, right now I’m the most surprised one. I had always suspected about that Horgus was a fighter in the past, but never had imagine he was so well knowed and popular and this explain very well why Lord Barton was taking his opinion in so high consideration. I’m stunned by this revelation, but at the same time, I wonder if there are any other things about Horgus he didn’t told to me, but at the same time I’ll understand why he knows so well about Libidinis tournament, because probably, or better say I’m quite sure of it, he had take part at it in one of the past edition, or maybe to more than one!

“Please…please my friends….there will be time to celebrate our champions….” Signis says, trying to calm a little the now too much excited spectators of the arena, then he turns to us, looking straightly at everyone of the contestants and smiling he speak to us.

“Here, today, you all are the strongest fighters of the whole continent and I’m sure you are ready to show us your power and abilities….I wish this contest can run in name of the respect that every one of you has for each other and of the rules you all know! Let the Goddess of Victory smile at the strongest of you and grant him, or her, the victory! May the contest begin!”

The whole arena is rumbling more vistuosely then before and probably, the same happens in any other place where citizens of Libidinis and travelers are now watching at the ceremony for the begin of the tournament. I’m sure that Signis is quiet satisfied by the reaction of the spectators and in his mind he has started to ponder about the profits the city, but most important him, will gain by the event, now that he enlight the soul of anyone of them with the memories of Horgus, a man that everyone consider a hero of the arena. While an employer is leading us back to the room where we were waiting for the begin of the ceremony, I take a last look at the stage where Signis is: there, I can easily recognize Queen Ophala and her beloved Prince Henrik, both with a satisfied expression on their faces. Then, I notice another man I had seen before near them, a man that usually came to visit Lord Barton at his estate before any match I had at the arena of Rhoonas. He’s Markus, the Prefect of Rhoonas, and he’s probably here to enjoy the tournament and to establish a more solid partnership with the City of Libidinis, something he was expecting from Lord Barton, being him the biggest merchant of Rhoonas and considering he had business in several sectors. But now, with his premature departure, the City of Rhoonas has lost its charismatic figure and knowing that, Markus has take the decision to move his steps personally, avoiding to use any mediocre intermediary that can ruin a delicate tractative with Libidnis. In fact, Lord Barton was well-known in Rhoonas for being an excellent merchant with many interests and often the Prefect asked him to solve lot of delicate affairs that made the city prosper fast and become a nevralgic point for business and this, of course, made the name of the Barton’s Family grown in fame and respectability in any city and country that have commercial interaction with the City of Rhoonas. Now, I wonder what type of business Markus have in mind, but I’m sure they are very important if he is here personally, anyway, it’s not like I care of them too much, all I hope is he’s not trying to involve me in them, obtaining my property from Signis.

Chapter 2 – The initiation to slavery

   Kath didn’t answer immediately to Phylia’s question. The silence of the place, is just breached by some light noises coming not so far from them, or this is the impression Phylia have when she tries to focus on them. She can clearly hear voices coming from different people: some are men, other women….she can heard even some children crying! Most of them are yelling for pain or to someone else, but Phylia isn’t able to recognize what is going on in this unknown place.
Phylia looks around her and finally, with her eyes now used to the few light which is entering in the room, she was able to see how small is the place where she is. The room is probably just sixteen feet on both sides and its walls are made of solid stones. The two only exceptions are the wooden door and the small windows right in front of it, which have bars to don’t permit to the peoples who are closed inside the room to use it as an escape’s way.

Looking at all this, Phylia begins to suspect about her actual situation, but she need a confirmation of it, so she asked again it to the human girl.

“Where are we, Kath!? I’m sure you know it very well!”

Again, the girl hesitates to answer her, even if she knows very well she was ordered to assist the elf once she woke up. After have taking a deep breath, Kath answer to Phylia.

“We are in the City of Vailoon and this place, till two years ago, was the most well known Sanatorium in the whole Continent of Drakoonia….”

“Why are you talking of the past, Kath!? What happened here two years ago!?” Phylia asks, interrupting the girl, which was now looking away and down at the floor, as she was trying to find the right way to explain it. Then, after a moment of deep silence, Kath continues her explanation.

“Two years ago, the city fell under the control of the Kingdom of Swabia and they turned this place into one where they gather people they capture in every corner of the realm! And….and….”

The girl was interrupted by her sobbing and now her body was also trembling more visibly, as if what she was about to tell to Phylia was something which was truly shocking her. Tears begin to leak down Kath’s cheeks and it doesn’t matter how many times she tries to dry them with her hands, they are not stopping and with them, even trembling of her young body.
Instinctively, Phylia embrace her and immediately, that tremor which was running thorough Kath’s body overwhelms her. Kath’s body is slender and warm, maybe she is even younger than how Phylia had estimated at the begin, or maybe she is not eating enough from long time….or maybe both! Phylia tries to comfort the girl, caressing gently her back and holding tight Kath against her wounded body, not carrying of her actual physical situation. Slowly, Kath begins to relax, but this didn’t stop the tears and the trembles….not at all, anyway! The girl appears really scared by the place and by what happen inside its walls, to the point she have difficulty even in talking about it!

The two girls remain like that for a long and endless moment and only when Kath is finally calmed down, Phylia free her from that comfortable embrace, but not before she dries the last tears from Kath’s cheeks. When Phylia looks again at her, a timid smile appears over Kath’s lips, a clear sign of how Phylia’s presence had helped Kath to relax and win against her own fear.

“Are you fine now!? Did you think you can continue!?” Phylia asks, adjusting the girl’s hair.

Kath nod at her, placing her hand over Phylia’s one, as if she wants to enjoy that small and pleasant moment for a little longer. That little and simple gesture, brings to Phylia’s memory the image of her sister when they were just two little babies and Aily, during the stormy nights, was crying as a fountain, scared by the thunders and their uproar: to calm her down, Phylia always act as she had just done with Kath and, at last, she was able to let Aily fell asleep every time. But now, Aily is alone, in an unknown place for Phylia….a place she want find very soon and fast, to rescue Aily and go back together at their forest to rebuild their village! This is all Phylia is dreaming now, but she knows very well how long and difficult is going to be to realize it and the first step she has to take is to escape from this place. And maybe this girl, Kath, can be of some help in doing this, so Phylia carefully listen at her explanation.

“The soldiers from Swabia have turned this place in a Slaves’ House, a place where merchants or nobles can buy slaves to use at their service. Men are usually bought for work into mines and girls as me or you, usually become sexual slaves or, if you are lucky, maids….”

The words of Kath shocked Phylia. How can humans sell so easily other member of their same race!? Have humans lost all their dignity as beings who live in the same planet where the elves can live in perfect harmony with any animals and with the spirits which protect it!? In the past, when she was just a child, she heard from the elders of the village about the purge of the human race which was started by an ancient creature, disgusted by the corruption of human’s souls, but till few days ago, Phylia never had really believed to those ancient’s stories, so far in the past for a little girl as she was at that time.
But from the day when the humans’ army had attacked the village, everything was different for her and now, after had hearing Kath’s words, Phylia have the final proof of how corrupted the whole human’s race is. She was now blaming her weakness for not being able to protect the forest and her village, plus the fact she have no clues about the shadows which have taken her sister Aily away from her, is torturing her soul and heart, giving to her a pain more intense of the one caused by the wounds on her body.

Phylia tries to stand up, but the pain caused by the wound at the abdomen forced her to lie again on the floor, using the wall as a support to for her back, but not before more blood leaks out of the wound. Immediately, Kath takes the healing unguent she had used to cure the elf during the past three days, but surprising her, Phylia refuses her help asking to the girl to bring her some fresh water. While the girl was running outside the small cellar in search for the water, Phylia can’t avoid thinking at her situation and immediately, she begins to elaborate a plan to escape from that disgusting place.
First of all, Phylia needs to find her full equipment: the light blue vest she’s wearing didn’t offer to her a good protection from the Human’s weapons, to don’t mention the fact she doesn’t feels so comfy wearing something different from her usual clothes. Not that her clothes can offer highest protection, in fact they reveal most of the candid skin she have, maybe too much, and even the sinuous curves of her more than perfect body! Probably, the only protection offered to her by them is the one coming from the shoulders’ plates, forged from the scales of a creature able to resist even sinked in the most burning lava.
The reason why Phylia wants to have them back, is more linked to the style of life the elf and the other villagers has follow for centuries. Every clothes, accessories and even the weapons they had used till now, where made in perfect harmony with the circle’s of the nature: no animals were killed, except the straight number of then necessary to survive, and no threes were cut to build their houses or weapons….everything they used was a gift of the forest and of the great amount of spirits of the four elements which populate it.
In fact, the elders of the village had always narrated a story to the youngest generations about the forest and how it is linked with spirits. A legend wants that century ago, when there were just few sane threes left, the ancient Spirit of Water had visited the Everious’ Forest and when it found the forest almost dead, a tear had fallen down from the compassionate eyes of the spirit. From that single tear and in just one night, a new forest was born and right when that tears felt, a pond of fresh and crystalline water appears from nowhere. From that day, the forest became the house of many elves that had the only purpose to live their life in harmony with the mother earth and all its creatures.
But now, with the annihilation of her village, the forest have no more Wardens who can protect it and soon, the humans are going to destroy even that precious forest, just to satisfy their need of materials for they stupid wars. Phylia can’t allow this and the desire to save her precious home is strong, maybe even more the one to save her kidnapped sister.

And about Aily, Phylia doesn’t have any clues about those shadows she had seen emerging suddenly from the ground to surround her sister and mysteriously disappear taking her with them. That happened too soon, Phylia is wondering if she can had a chance to stop them if she wasn’t deadly injured or if Aily had the opportunity to escape from them, once she was no more that concentrated to control the Efreet! Everything Phylia knows is where to start to search for her sister, she must escape from this city and run back soon as possible to their village! Only there she can find a trace of Aily and of any other survivors….if there are others!
For a moment, the idea to be the last survivor of her village hit the elf mind, making the hate she had started to feel against the humans grown more, to the point a part of her is now wishing to had fallen during the humans invasion, just to avoid to had seen the devastation they had bring into her home. Too many Wardens had fallen and with them, even many innocent children who had just started to live their lives in this world, now too contaminated by the corrupted souls of the whole humanity. For the first time in her long life, Phylia is now sensing a deep and strong hate overwhelming her.

“Humans are the plague of this world!” Phylia continuously repeat to herself while she’s waiting for the fresh water Kath has promised to bring back with her.

And soon, the sound of the footsteps of that apparently innocent girl, comes from behind the massive wooden door which closes one of the two ways to escape from there. But Phylia is too weak at the moment, she must heal her wounds first, and then she can elaborate a plan to leave that place once and for all. And the first point, is about to be realized, thanks to the water the girl have whit her.
But when the girl finally steps back inside the cellar, Phylia is a little disappointed by dimension of the jar she have with her. The amount of water which can be storage in it isn’t too much and Phylia isn’t sure about the fact that can be enough to run her plan! On the other hand, the link between the elf and the Spirits of Waters was always strong and solid, to the point they allowed to infuse some of their powers in Phylia’s weapon. And in fact, the same spirits had leaded Phylia to the dead corpse of a crocus, a sort of giant crocodile which have very resistant and sharp bone’s blades on its frontal paws used by the elves for centuries to realize their blades or, as in the case of Phylia, lances and axes. All she can do now, is try….try and see if she can takes care of her wounds.

When Phylia asked to Kath to leave her alone, the girl didn’t agree at that request, not immediately, anyway. The young girl didn’t knows what Phylia have in mind but being assigned by the ruler of the Slaves’ House to take care of that precious creature, at the begin she refuses to do as the elf asked her, pretending to knows why she wants to be left alone. Phylia is hesitant in explaining to a stranger, plus a human, about the connection elves always had with the four spirits and of the power to heal wounds possessed by the one of water.
But the girl appears determinate in her decision, Phylia can clearly see it in the eyes of that apparently innocent human. But despite this, she can’t put her trust in a member of a race which had caused the destruction of her village and of the forest where she was happily living till three days ago with her sister and all their friends. Of course, Phylia is conscious of the fact she need an ally to escape from there, or better say, an ally which can help her to find her weapon and the rest of her equipment, something the elf really need if she wants to leave the city of the human unharmed.

Inside her mind, Phylia is fighting a hard battle, maybe even hardest than the one she fought to save the forest and the village. Of course, the wounds on her body are causing her some strong pain, but the one which is causing her the strongest sufferance, is the one in her soul, betrayed by the humans which weren’t considered as a menace till they attacked them. So, how she put her trust in that little girl so easily now!? Did Phylia have to really reveal her plan and ask for the girl’s help!? Those doubts are now tormenting her mind, making the elf unable to take a clear and final decision.
Meanwhile, Kath is still staring at Phylia, waiting for an answer which is not coming….or not so soon how she was expecting, anyway! But she doesn’t give up and after few minutes of silence, Kath asked her reasons to Phylia again, more determinate in having an answer than how she was the first time.

Phylia, still hesitant, at last took the decision to reveal just the first part of her plan to the girl, which appears more relieved by the fact that the elf had shared it with her. Then, after a first moment of hesitation, Kath talks to Phylia again.

“What I really don’t understand, is why you want to be left alone….did you think I can scare the spirits!?”

“No, it’s not that….” the elf replies, smiling at her words “but this is something we never have show to other races! Can you understand it now!?”

“Mmm, more or less….even if I don’t have very clear in my mind why you don’t want I assist at the invocation!”

“Please, Kath….do as I requested to you!” Phylia asked again, begging.

The girl, after had taking a deep breath and nod at Phylia, just to moves back to the cellar door with the intention to wait outside the place, but having care to be enough close to Phylia just in case something can happen.

Finally alone, Phylia begins her chant, trying to focus her mind on it instead on the pain caused by the wound inflicted to her by the blade which had pierced her body from side to side. The chant she has to sing for invoking the healing spirit of the water isn’t so long and when she finished it, Phylia is surprised to see that nothing has happen. Maybe, she wasn’t enough concentrate, so she tries and sings the chant for the second time, just to sort the same effect of the first time: nothing!
Phylia tries again and when she gains the same effect for the third time, she finally understood about the real problem: the chant was singed perfectly, maybe she had pronounced the words with low voice, but always correctly. So, the problem can’t be the chant but the place where she is or….the water! Why she didn’t think at it before!? Kath was clear when she had explained what place is this and how it was changed from a Sanatorium in to a Slaves’ House!
Of course, even if those structures are in the same place, their use is totally different and if the Sanatorium is a place where deadly wounded people have a chance to be saved, a Slaves’ House is a place where any hope is lost and people don’t hesitate to damn it, forcing the spirits to leave it! And the same had happened to the water of the well which lies in the yard of the structure, so it’s natural that her chant wasn’t able to evoke a spirit, because they left definitely the place forever or, at last, till it’s going to remain a Slaves’ House.

And now, the plan Phylia has in mind can’t be actuated….or, anyway, not so soon as she was hoping till few minutes ago! Now, the only chance for the elf to heal her wounds is that girl, Kath, but Phylia can’t be sure about the true intention she had, even if she said to be a prisoner as Phylia is. All she can do now, is takes some times to learn more about that young girl and finds out if she had said the true about her situation and of the role she has in this place.
Time Phylia don’t have, if she wants to be sure to save her beloved forest and finds some traces about the shadows which kidnapped her sister! Three days and the presence of the humans in the Everious’ Forest are probably both cancelled them or, at last, part of them, making really difficult for Phylia to have the chance to finds Aily soon as possible.

Fresh and relaxed, I step inside the Bar & Grill looking around to see if Brandy is in the room ar somewhere else. I see no trace of her, so I move to the bar where Old Joe is cleaning the glasses, as usual.

“Hey Joe! Have you seen Brandy today!?”

“Maybe she's in the office….go take a look!”

I wave my hand toi thanks him and lead for the place where I hope to finally find the busy Queen of the Bar. The door is not locked and slowly, I open it, taking a look inside the room just to seen Brandy taking cares of some orders for alchool and other suff the bar is in need, as usual.

“Hey Barandy, you got some time for an old friends!?” I ask, walking inside the room and closing the door behind me.

“Don't need to ask for that….what's up, HB!?”

Sitting on the chair right in front of the desk, I unrool the poster I had under my arm and show it to Brandy

then, I introduce the contest I had planned to her.

Everyone can join it and the rules are simple. You can chose a song you like and rewrite the text, just to sing it on the stage of the Bar & Grill and when any contestant have done to singing his song, a jury selected between the crowd will claim the winner.

It's 3 a.m. and I'm driving home after had spent almost 20 hours at the election point I was assigned and I can cleraly feel my eyes closing time by time. In a rare moment of lucidity, I notice the glowing road's sign of the Bar & Grill light the dark of the night and I can't to avoid to think at how many months are passed since last time I visited the place.

Conscious of the fact that I have to drive for more than 30 minutes to finally go back home, I take the decision to take a break at the Bar and rest a little, and who know,…..maybe I can meet old friends here! So, after had parking my can in the half full and considering how much my feet hurts after all that time wearing heels, I walk to the entrance barefoot, just stopping in front of the door to take a deep breath before opening it.

“I wonder how the place is changed….” I say to my self, just a moment before I open the door and step in.

Inside, the light are low and they make difficult, for my tired eyes, to easily recognize the customers who are sitting at the table. Anyway, I quite sure there are people I know but first think I need is a strong, doubl coffe, so I move to the count where a surprised Old Joe welcome me

“Long tome away from here, HB!”

“Indeed….” I reply, trying to smile despite the fact I'm about to fall asleep “Busy months tooks me away from here!”

“Well, hope we can see you around more, from now on! Coffee!?”

I nod at him, not surprised to see he still smart as usual and friendly, then I answer to his first quention with a nostalgic ight in my eyes.

“Maybe….I missed the place!”

“And we missed you!” Joe replies, handing me a steamy cup of coffee. While I take it, I smile again at Joe, just before looking around at the Bar again: yes, definitely, I missed this place!

[hentaiboy69]

No flashlight here, sorry Jvh, but I'd like to accept the coffee Lover was offering!

Next one is going to have lunch soon, like me!

[hentaiboy69]

Ok, we have the “Hide room” button back! one thing to delete from our list!

Having a monitor with a max resolution of 1600 x 900, the AChat window is a little maller. I presume it's around 1200…..more or less!

[hentaiboy69]

Welcome in the best place of the whole world! mmmm, no, maybe that's a bakery, but I'm  not sure……aaaanyway!

I'm happy to see people finding their way for the forum, this is a nice place full of nice people who like to laugh, play funny game (sometimes hot too!) and meet new friends!

Enjoy our home!
