The sound of steel penetrating bone and flesh rung out loud, perhaps from the concussion Asuir was suffering from due to several blows to the head. Weapons fell to the ground, followed shortly by the sound of corpses hitting the stone. He could'nt see what was happening but the loud sounds around for the parts when Asuir could focus on them painted a vivid picture of the brawl that was taking place. A single man was defeating the thugs, and defeating them with ease. Then silence. Footsteps. Getting closer, someone was standing over him ...he could'nt see who. Was it one of the thugs ? No. He sensed a powerful, proud spirit from this one. It was the man, the single man that defeated the thugs. "Someone help me move this man!".. Dahnel was leaning over Asuir, requesting help from the crowd that had now gathered to inspect the aftermath of the brawl. An older man stepped forward and joined Dahnel in lifting Asuir to his feet, each held one of his arms over their shoulders. "We need to get him to a monk..." Dahnel said to the old man. "A monk aye ? ..there is'nt a temple around here for miles.." the old man replied. "He'll die before you get to a temple of Dwayna.." the old mans stared away in deep thought. "ah ..the Mackenzies ! .. they have a young monk staying with them..and its not far from here !"
The Mackenzies ? .....Amy...
Dahnel and the old man held Asuir upright as they made their way through the maze like backstreets of Kaineng towards the upper class districts. Arriving at the gates of the Mackenzie estate they saw three young women and a middle aged man sitting enjoying the weather from the garden. Ice noticed the two men holding a third injured man. "Friends of yours?" she said plainly. Caleb, Amy and Angel all turned their attention to match.
No....w...ait...
"ASUIR! ..." Amy attempted to run to the gates but Caleb cought her by the wrist and pulled her close. "Shhh Shhh dont look.." he tried to protect her from seeing something she may regret. "let Angel handle this.." he said holding Amy's head to his chest, her tears now running onto his shirt. Dahnel kicked the gates wide open and placed Asuir down in a clearing in the garden.
I ..I just wanted ...
"Dont try to talk" Angel said softly. She knelt down besides the injured young Ritualist, closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths. "Well ..are you going to help him" Dahnel said to Angel.."I'm thinking ! I'm thinking "...Angel had began to shake, her nerves had taken over now..Blackness, a familiar sight.
"Mr. Mackenzie ?..Can i speak to you for a moment.?" Asuir stepped into Caleb's office. "Yes Asuir ?" ..."I ..I'm thinking of asking Amy to marry me.." Asuir said shyly looking at the floor. "Well now ...i cant say i never saw this coming, you two have been friends for a longtime.." Caleb tried to analyze the situation. "But do you really think you can protect and provide for my daughter ?" Asuir looked away and did'nt answer. "I like you Asuir but i need to do the best for her. You must understand.". The Ritualist stood for a few seconds to let what Caleb had just said sink in before turning for the door. "Then i guess theres nothing for me here". Amy met Asuir at the gates of the Mackenzie estate on his way out. "...Asuir ....Asuir where are you going ?".
The Mackenzies ? .....Amy...
