A cool breeze whistled through
the grove, causing the tall grass to sway in time with the rustling
leaves. In the middle of the grove was a
young woman with long, black hair. A white
silk dress wrapped tightly about her slender frame. The woman moved gracefully back and forth to
an unheard rhythm. The ancient form had
no room for error as she moved through the complex motions. At first glance it appeared that a light mist
had risen up and swirled about her.
However, at a closer look, distinctive shapes could be seen; human forms
of those long since dead joining the woman in her dance.
Zandreena
had performed this dance countless times, but until now she had always
performed it alone. A rush of power and
enlightenment went through her as the ancient spirits bestowed upon her their
power and wisdom. Completing the form,
the spirits faded from mortal view. She
bowed deeply in respect as they departed.

The
horror returned stronger than before.
She was to be cooked and eaten alive!
“Who is your master?” again taking on a demanding tone
“Master
is Master.” Is all he said, turning back
to his work.
Zandreena
tore helplessly at the chain around her ankle.
This could not be happening, after surviving the test of the Grand Magi
and surviving an attack by a Tarillion assassin, she was to die by a scrawny
creature with delusions of grandeur.
“Gurrugant!” she yelled. “Do you
think I will just hang there and let you roast me over your fire? As soon I am out of this cage I will tear
this place a part. I will bring such
destruction upon you and your kind it will be remembered for centuries!”
The
kobold seemed unimpressed by her threats and spoke without turning. “You no scare, you sleep. You no wake, magic be all mine.”
