  1. Spineless? TAAron felt a heated anger at that. Taking a deep breath and feeling somewhat invigorated, he walked into the room.
  2. The encounter startled TAAron more than it should have, and he found that his heart was pounding. Should I go in? I don't know...
  3. Several minutes later, TAAron made his way to the feast. He paused outside the room, listening, feeling anxious. I'm going to mess something up.
  4. Antin looked up from his runes. "Wait... where are you going?"
  5. "I'm sure you'll be fine. I'll be here... if you need anything." He glanced apprehensively at the outfit. "I guess I'll change. You should probably head to the feast, I'll get there when I can."
  6. He looked apprehensive. "Alright. Um... How are you feeling about this?" He picked up the outfit, examining it. This will be a puzzle.
  7. "Right." He looked downcast. "So, how do I sneak in?"
  8. "Feast? Sneak in? What's going on?"
  9. "Wow, you have quite the place here." He looked at the dress and smiled slightly. "I think it looks nice. Do you... have somewhere to be?"
  10. He hugged her back. "No, it's not. What is this place?"
  11. "Got it." He smashed the Permissive.
  12. Not wonderful, Haly, he died for me. I told him not to. He sighed, feeling a new wave of grief. I think I need your permission, or something.
  13. He sighed in relief. No, I'm alive, Haly. Lerac... sacrificed himself.
  14. And so he did, concentrating on the image in his head. Haly, are you there?
  15. "I... Yes." He wiped his eyes. "What do I do?"
  16. "Ah. He is... was a life magician." The flowers continued growing, covering the man. There was the familiar sour grass and the sweet flower he had offered Wynn, and what seemed like hundreds of others.
  17. "What? Lerac... I told him not to." He stood up, tears in his eyes. "Take me to Haly." Suddenly, flowers began growing around Lerac's body. They bloomed, flowers if every color, shape and size.
  18. "Where is she?" TAAron was understandably startled. "I was dead, I... What happened to Lerac?"
  19. The wounds on TAAron finished clearing, and Lerac fell to the floor, eyes open yet unseeing. TAAron sat up with a gasp. "Haly!"
  20. He smiled, but it wasn't his normal, jovial smile. It was sister, warmer, and sadder. He walked over to TAAron's body and placed a hand on his bloody forehead. He took one last look around, and at Wynn. "Better me than him." Suddenly, the blood began to clear away, and the cuts to heal.
  21. "Yes, I'm fine... Wynn, will you say goodbye to Haly and Sykel for me?"
  22. "Yeah, I'm..." Lerac shuddered. "Fine." He stood up, glancing at TAAron's body, then winced and looked away.
  23. The bolts slowed momentarily, but passed through the shadows. Each one hit Lerac in the chest. He fell to the ground, apparently stunned.
