Chapter 16
"There on the move," the man with long golden blond hair said.
"Where do you think they are going to go, Benevolence?" a girl asked.
"They are headed for Beerbread, but they are going to stop and rest at a temple along the way," Benevolence said. "Myrugi, take Ravenous and Michalynn with you and give them a warm welcoming."
"Yes, sir," Myrugi said. He stood straight up and then turned, his long black hair flowing behind him. His purple eyes angered. He went and found the two half demons. The siblings were in their rooms. He opened the door and looked in. "We have to go and welcome some visitors," he said. They stood and followed him to the horses.
As they rode, Myrugi was deep in thought. I don't want to be the one to fight them yet, he thought. Elanjila is with them. How can I fight her? Well I should hate her for what she did.
He remembered very well what had happened, 6 years ago. He was only about 18 or 19, she was probably very old then, almost 1,000 at least. He shouldn't have been surprised when he told her that he had no sex. He as what other people called an "it". He remembered the look on her face, at first not believing him, he looked male to her, but when he showed her he had no male nor female parts, she looked at him wish disgust, and said she never wanted to see him again. He tried to fill the love he felt for her with hate, but nothing seemed to work.
"Myrugi?" Michalynn asked riding her horse up next to him. He looked at her. The wind started to blow, making her long red hair fly behind her. Her red eyes stared at him. "You seem deep in thought. What are you thinking about?" she asked him.
"Just there are three of us and about 8 or 9 of them. I was just thinking of how we will be able to do this," he said, looking back at the trail.
"Well, you do have two half demons on your side. We are pretty powerful," she said with a smile.
"And besides," Ravenous said coming up on the other side of Myrugi, "One is a fairy, one is a human, one is a half ling, and two elves that seems to not know any type of magic at all," he said, his blue eyes, sparkling with excitement, behind his dark blue hair.
"But one is a high elf, one is a wizard, and the other elf that is with them is able to use magic and other skills. We may be out numbered," Myrugi said.
"We can take them," Michalynn said.
They pressed on. Myrugi felt a little uneasy. Why did Benevolence only want us to come? He asked himself. Is it maybe to see how they will fight and what skills each of them have? Nothing made since to him, not when Benevolence was the one making the plans. Benevolence seems to know a lot for being a human. But at times, Myrugi got the impression that Benevolence was more then what he appeared.
