As Rythian watched the mad-scientist fly away, his words ringed in the mage's head. 'You're lifestone won't help you with that wound, Enderborn'. The lifestone on Rythian's belt was glowing trying to help the Ender side of him heal the wound. But as Lalna had said, it didn't help. Pain seared through the father's side, causing him to loose his breath.
"How is this happening?!" Rythian mumbled under his breath. There are only two reasons why the lifestone won't help. Either the body is to close to death to save or.....poison.
Just as the mage had come to the conclusion, his body surged forward and he tumbled over onto his back.

Zoey awoke to strange feeling in her gut. It was still dark and Kryztel was still in her deep slumber. 'Then why am I wake?' Zoey thought to herself. She climbed out of and walked over to the crib and looked down at her sleeping daughter, wondering what this feeling was. It was a familiar feeling but something she hadn't felt in awhile.
The it hit her. Danger. Zoey ran downstairs to the lounge room and then down the ladder to her lab. After reaching the wanted monitor, the red-head typed "Activate". As soon as the message had ran through the computer, the emergency defense systems whirred into action. A force-field surrounded the fortress and the watchtower neighboring it.
Zoey went back up the ladder and looked out the front window. As her mind registered what was happening, the young mother was glad she had activated the field. Lalna was flying straight towards her and her home.
