Chapter 4- Unknown Assailant

*I hope we can get horses* Kitara thought to herself. She walked on towards the farmhouse, noting signs that showed the area had fallen on hard times. There were signs of disrepair and neglect and in trees she recognised as evergreen there were brown leaves present.

She glanced at Phlex and shot him a smile meant to show confidence that she never actually possessed but his expression wasn't noticed as something solid connected with Kitara's head and she fell to her knees.

Kitara felt only pain, her head seemingly to her had practically been split in two, which wasn't too far from the truth if exaggerated. She tried to find her friend but her vision had become obscured by a row of black at the top and bottom of her sight.

Disregarding all consequences of her actions Kitara opened herself to the joy and life of Saidar and was willing to surrender. Nothing happened.

Unable to fight by any means she knew, Kitara was defenceless.

Hurriedly she looked for Phlex, knowing he was her only hope, but her eyes couldn't find him. Kitara's vision worsened and soon after her head hurt so much that she just wanted to crawl up in a ball and die.

"Phlex," she vainly attempted to call, the words barely forming so of course thare was no reply.

Then everything went black.
