Alright guys, this particular page will be shorter. It’s just I’ve been kind of lazy this weekend, so I didn’t have a huge motivation to get it done on a regular basis. Also, I’m going to have to start changing the pages from twice a week to once on Saturdays. I had chosen Monday and Friday during the summer when I wasn’t doing anything, but I now know I really don’t want to have to keep up with that ASAP the first and last days of the week the moment I get out of school.
**************
Sandra woke up, realizing she was bounded by shadow like chains. When she tried to yell for help, her voice was silenced, feeling a darkness forcing anything she said back down.
“So, it seems you have finally awakened,” Balazan said, the orc walking up to her laughing.
“The dark magics of demons are powerful, and I will use them to my fullest to make sure I do not waste you” Balazan said. Sandra was terrified, struggling against the chains constantly, though not even making them budge.
“Do not worry priest, it shall all be over soon enough,” the warlock said, laughing as he took out a talisman and pointing it at Sandra.
“This is a very unique trinket of mine, it is not like any shards that imprison and drive those in it insane and corrupt. No, for you, I must keep you the way you are..,” Balazan said, walking up to Sandra. She looked around the room constantly, hoping something would happen to intervene, but her false hopes being drowned out by the feeling of despair and fear.
Balazan lifted the small talisman in front of Sandra, revealing a half circle object carved with marking all along it. She screamed in her mind, terrified of what the warlock was going to do, asking the Light for help, though the fel wards too strong and choking her pleads out.
“Your soul is mine!” Balazan shouted, the talisman suddenly shooting out magic into Sandra, sucking out her soul. Suddenly her body went limp, the talisman glowing a light green.
“The first step to the master’s arrival has been completed,” Balazan laughed, leaving Sandra’s body bounded to the chains.

Valinaria walked along with the others, none of them noticing that they had not put her back into the shackles incase Alliance had found them. She didn’t bother mentioning it though, enjoying being able to walk for a while instead of sitting still in the cart.
“So should I leave when we arrive near the mill?” Valinaria asked.
“Choose what you want to do, it doesn’t matter” Doomwhisper responded. Valinaria sighed, not really paying attention to the response then. She took out her bow while she walked and began to tighten it, tuning in for her own proper technique.
“Ugh… my head” Marvin muttered, waking up. The gnome had been knocked out for a few hours, so he did not know yet about what has happened.
“Are you alright?” Valinaria asked.
“No, my head feels-” Marvin suddenly stopped, seeing the bow in Valinaria’s hand. He tried to disarm her with magic from defensive instinct, but was too weak to even let a spark loose.
“Oh, didn’t know it bothered you” Valinaria said, putting the bow onto her back again. Marvin sighed, letting himself fall back into the cart.
“Strange group”
Valinaria thought, wondering when she should leave towards the mill.

No William this post, I felt that it was needed to diversify from and not base the plot so heavily on one person.

P.S. Nice read, and is Sandra dead now?
No, her soul is still alive. I went on about the talisman being unique for a reason. Her body itself is alive, but it won't be responsive to anything, basically brain dead.

I like the idea of what's happening with Sandra. Y'know, bending her purity into being used for evil. *Dr. Evil pinky positioning and evil laugh*

You know... That half-circle "talisman" with "Markings" that sucks out souls in a green way reminds me of a movie a recently saw... >.>

O rly?
Either that.. or just a plain soul shard, but tell me, which one SOUNDS better, a unique talisman that is meant to preserve a soul the way it is and glows green, is a unique odd shape with runes, or a dull crystal?
Also, post in Open war!

No response from the sudden divine intervention from the Gods?
