When I returned to camp, something was slightly off. There was a chill in the air, as if the world had been frozen solid in it's orbit. Not a soul could be seen. I rushed around the camp, looking for someone, anyone.
I stopped dead in my tracks, as I doubled over clutching my stomach with my hands. A frozen, cold, lifeless voice went through my head.
'Come, my dear one. Come Halex." The voice whispered. I shivered and held myself. It wasn't cold, it was slightly chilly, but it was something I was normally used to after the cold winters in Dralkien. I frowned from my place on the ground. What was going on?
"Halex! Are you okay?!" I jumped out of my skin at Twellwyn's voice. "Don't scare me like that!" He frowned and looked around nervously. That seemed to be a trait of his, looking around all panicky and stuff.
"What's wrong, though? I mean, I don't see anyone." Twellwyn, being such the procrastinator he is decided to ignore my question by taking my hand and pulling me. "Okay, okay, okay. I did take extra potatoes at the feast. I admit it!" He turned with a sarcasticly affronted face.
"Really now?! Well then, it's punishment time." I could only guess what that was, probably being whipped or tortured to death. Whoo, that sent shivers down my back.
He leaned forward and tickled me. "St-Stop it. Stop it right now Tw-Twellwyn. RIGHT NOW." I broke into a fit of laughter as we tumbled to the ground.
He suddenly stopped tickling me.
"We need to get going."
