  1. "Well... I guess just do what you can." Cufre closed his eyes, which were heavy from exhaustion. "The other guy... Nath-something. He said he did something that made sure they wouldn't be able to keep him for long. Do you know what that means?"
  2. "No, everything is not alright. My brother just got taken." "Oh." Cufre relaxed for a moment, but then looked up at Fadran again. "A few hours? What could they do to him in a few hours?"
  3. "Hardly. You just said you 'don't have the purest of intentions,' but you won't tell me what those are." He buried his face in his hands. "I just want to find my brother, alright?"
  4. "That's exactly what that man said, and now he's gone! Except you're admitting that you're hiding something from us. What is it?"
  5. "I... apreciate that." He looked at Rayvyn, annoyed. "I still want to know why he looked at you like that earlier. He had seemed comfortable enough with you, and then he was terrified."
  6. "Well, I don't have any magical abilities at all. No one in my family does, except for Tacien."
  7. In a final flash of light, the boy disappeared. Cufre stared at the spot where he had been, dumbfounded. He turned to Nath. "What were you doing? Couldn't you have stopped it?"
  8. The frost expanded again, covering the paper in Tacien's hand, which he looked at, confused. Cufre sat down, horrified, and the temperature dropped and the glow strengthened. It would only be seconds now before the boy was taken.
  9. The boy grabbed the paper, shivering, ice on his knuckles cracking. The glow became brighter, and the air around Tacien chilled. "What are you doing?" Cufre asked, desperate. "We need to stop this!"
  10. As if in response, the frost began to gleam with blue light. "No!" Cufre grabbed his brother in spite of the cold as the glow intensified.
  11. Cufre nodded. "Do you think he'll be able to teleport Tacien away like he did for himself?"
  12. "He's still all... frosted." Cufre reached to pick up his brother, and recoiled. "Wow, that's cold. Do you have gloves or something?" Tacien sat down, dejected. As he did, the ice at his joints cracked and broke away, only to be resealed.
  13. The man sighed once more, and in an instant the same frost had covered his body. There was a flash of blue light, a wave of cold, and he was gone.
  14. "To protect him. He is constantly in danger, no matter what you say about the security of this inn."
