Contn'd Past Glance

It is not good to assume.

After the Ignati was shoved away from our promise land, she returend to her Clan that she had betrayed. The Clan of Ignatius did not take well to betrayers. She was scheduled to be hung.

We had heard news of it, and as much as i did not want to we could not let any race get murdered. This was my fault so i told Nero to stay back, I would make this journey alone.

It was harder going this time than the first. The cloud of grey hung lower than usual. I didn't think i could do this. Why do i care if this Ignati was killed. She was no companion of mine.

I had reached the entrance. My skin trimbled. The crowds around the Clan Square were roaring. The smoke filled my lungs, my eyes stung. I saw the betrayer approach the nuce. I must make hast. Her eyes fell upon me, she knew i was here to save her. She knew i made a mistake.

I pulled the knife from my robe. i slowly made my way to the back of the square. slowly and quietly. The sweat dripped down my spine. I was on enemy lines. The nuce was already around her neck, i had to act. I jumped up. at this point i didnt care if i was noticed. I could hear her gagging. the knife shot through the rope and she fell. i pulled her up and ran. They were right behind us. They wanted us both dead. You dont walk on the Ignatius land without being slain. But we ran. For the first time in awhile i ran without fear. We had approached the gates to exit. I heard a sound of whizzing through air. A pain shot through my leg. I was hit, by an arrow.

I wasn't going to stop. I couldn't give in to this pain. We didn't slow. I had lost alot of blood and by the time we had lost the Ignati Clan i had collapsed. I layed there out of breath and out of blood. The betrayer had ripped the fabric away from the wound, and placed her hands on it. My body began to regain the energy it once had. I had passed out.

When i had awoke i was staring at Nero. He has tears in his eyes and a smile. I thought i had lost you. The betrayer walked to me. She told me that she had caused me enough pain. She had heard of a land of Gosclo, where she would be free of her Ignati blood. I wished her farwell.

But i knew the fight was not over!
