The Group fled with Gerasia down the hill which was littered with the bodies of the tribal dracons. 'they foiught to try and free you..' Minna Whispered, noticing the shiock on Gerasia's face..

The battle was all but over... the tribal army was down to under 10% of its manpower... and the chief was wounded and had to be carried off of the battle field. Vespion and the party ran onto what was left of the slaughter... Asthia's troops had taken few casualties... and the panthers were among the few forces still fighting on the side of the tribesmen... they were quickly joined by Vepsion and the rest. It was a short run from there to the forest.

We need to REtreat" Minna said. "We have Rhiga and gerasia.." She started sending blasts of magic against the forces of asthia. "Now we need to get the survivors back home.. where we can tend our wounds and reunite father and daughter.."
_ meanwhile marcus raced towards the forest with rhiga in his arms, selturma a step behind..

"The mission was completed! Retreat now!" - Eriol shouted to the tribal forces that were farther from where the party came back, he then looked at Arianne and the both ran to encounter Vespion, Ilsa and the others.

"I'm so glad you all made it, but where is Adykon?" - Arianne asked Vespion as she now was running with Eriol and the rest of the party and the surviving tribal warriors.

Asthia put him under a spell which prevents him from leaving the castle" Minna said sadly.. "We don't have the power to undo the spell so hwe had to leave him.."

Running for the woods, Vespion told Arianne; "He couldn't make it... there's a spell on him. Asthia geased Adykon so he couldn't escape... he is bound to her... and cannot attack her... he's in big trouble, but we cannot hope to save him now..."

Meanwhile...

The corpse of the red dragon lay sprawled out on the ground, with her blood staining the floor. Asthia herself was exhausted and burned... her clothes were reduced to cinders, but she had replacements. Fainting from exhaustion into a pool of the dragon's blood, Asthia was unconscious.

Arcantas, who had seen the battle but done nothing to help, approached the gory scene... he had hoped that the Dragon would manage to kill Asthia... sadly, she didn't.

After hours, the party had managed to evade the pursuing soldiers. What was left of the army gathered in the village... where they were met by a large group of grieving relatives, mostly female.

But if there was to be grieving, it ought to have been done for Adykon... Asthia had recovered... and gave him the unenviable task of finally awakening the horror beneath her tower...

And Gerasia. The village's joy at finding their lost daughter quickly turned to grief as they saw that she was a vampiress...

Marcus collected himself on the ground, he wa exhausted from his long long dash. he had put rhiga to bed in a spare hut, so she could recover. marcus wept, a micxture of joy that they had rescued his love, and sadness at the great losses they had sustained..

Noname · **Reply #5949 on:** September 19, 2009, 12:22:18 AM

After some time, Rhiga stirred. She was still tired, but was recovering. Still nude, she got up, uneasy, her feet having not touched the ground in so long after being suspended in the air by those tendrils.

After some steps, feeling the dirt floor of the hut beneath her pale, tender soles, she looked for Marcus. Her usual grace and agility soon returned to her, as she got a feel for the area. Taking a moment, she felt her body, to make sure that every thing was okay. After being unable to sense anything wrong, she moved on, satisfied.

Sticking her head out of the hut, she smelled the air, quickly finding Marcus's scent. She moved in his direction...

Nick22 · **Reply #5950 on:** September 19, 2009, 12:24:37 AM

Marcus felt an arm on his shoulder, he loked up, and saw Rhiga. "Rhiga.. you're not dressed...Lets..go inside.. and ...and.. CATCH UP..' he whispered, with a smile playing on his llips.. "If you are too tired , my love, I understand..

Noname · **Reply #5951 on:** September 19, 2009, 12:31:34 AM

"I've waited so long for this" Rhiga said to her lover. Really, she had waited a long time... she had wanted to marry him when she was taken... heck, she was at the very wedding when they caught her!

They retired to a hut... and it was a wonder they didn't wake up the whole village with what went on in there!

The moment they were inside, marcus threw her onto the bed, and threw himself upon her. he kissed her passionately on the lips, and began fondling her, running his claws over her breasts, with soft caressing strokes. marcus quickly placed himself inside her, and instantly felt the joy that came with thier lovemaking, a joy enhanced by thier long forced seperation. marcus pulled himself out of her and held her to him.. 'I love you.. so much Rhiga he began his voice beginning to crack wit emotion..

Noname · **Reply #5953 on:** September 19, 2009, 12:54:02 AM

Rhiga kissed her mate-to-be, and after more gasping, moaning and roaring, the both of them fell asleep.

Vaeri had heard what was happening... and was happy that her daughter was enjoying herself again. She would speak to Rhiga in the morning. Her thoughts grew darker as she thought of Adykon, and how to save him.

Nick22 · **Reply #5954 on:** September 19, 2009, 12:59:39 AM

Minna and Ilsa retired to thier hut, which hgeld two small beds. 'We managed to save Rhiga;' Minna said, sitting on her bed. and gazing over at Ilsa. "At a heavy cost to be sure, I didn't see the mother dragon come out, so she is likely dead.."Ilsa replied " Asthia is extremely powerful, to kill a dragon" Minna said ."Yes but such a battle takes a tremendous toll. it would be fatal to you or I, or likely Vespion.' Ilsa replied. "But she isn't alive, after all, shes a vampiress, so she can endure things we can't.."

Night fell over the village. The sound of sobbing could be heard from many huts. So many male warriors had died that there weren't enough left for the females to all remarry... they would have to intermarry with other tribes in order to survive... tribes which had no intention of continuing the fight against Asthia... as they were too cowardly... or was it simply that they were too prudent?

In any case, it was a matter of simple survival... almost like a math equation. The tribe was left without its strongest members...

Nick22 · **Reply #5956 on:** September 19, 2009, 01:08:48 AM

Both minna and Ilsa soon feel asleep. marcus slept comfortably.. his lover in his arms at last.. he was unaware of the life that was slowly growing inside of her..

Noname · **Reply #5957 on:** September 19, 2009, 01:27:27 AM

Dawn broke on the village... and on Asthia's tower. For Adykon, the task he had been given was bad, but, all things considered... it might have been tolerable... if his quarters were a bit better...

Nick22 · **Reply #5958 on:** September 19, 2009, 01:31:22 AM

Marcus stirred next to his mate-to be be, who was still asleep. <Marcus leaned in and kissed her, gently, as to not wake her. "I wil never let you be taken again" He whispered..

Noname · **Reply #5959 on:** September 19, 2009, 01:44:14 AM

Rhiga woke up, kissed her lover, and stretched. Something felt a bit... different. Like there was some pressure in her stomach... speaking of stomach, she was hungry... "What do you say we get something to eat, Marcus?"
