PHOENIX: Tales from Easifa #3. SCALEHART Part Three. Finale!
--- Eadala: The Port Town of Naught. 12 hours ago ---
Zahara~ What do you mean you're going? What happened to taking time off for me and Sol? You promised! Your knee isn't even fully healed.
Savas~ I know but this job is really important! Malek asked me personally..... I promise. After this, after I bring Mana back to him, I'll take a long break. Please Zah, let me do this for him and his daughter.
There was a heavy silence that filled the room. Zahara had a feeling something was off. Savas came home looking very different and changed his mind so suddenly. She was getting so frustrated with him dodging her concerns. But then she looked over at Sol who was asleep on the couch. If he went missing, she doesn't know what she would do. She can't imagine how Malek is feeling. Mana was such a sweet and determined girl.
Zahara~ Alright. I understand. Bring her back to him my love.
Savas~ Thank you..... will. And after that, I will dedicate my life to you and Sol. You have my word.
Savas holds his wife tight. He thought hard about what happened with Rossy. He had a plan, and either way, Zahara and Solosis would be safe!
--- North of Eadala: Uninhabitable Zone. Militia Encampment Murqab ---
Savas~ Thank you all for coming, I've decided to tag along. Let's do our best.
Reginald~ Oi... is that a good idea with your knee all banged up?
Jack~ don't be holding us back now.
Savas~ Ah, the old jinn hunter. Good to see you regrouped with the party. You are too moody Raeb. Do not worry, I can handle myself even in this state. Thanks for taking over Captain Asimara.
Asimara~ No problem sir. More importantly, I would like to introduce you all to the current Grand Commander of the Militia Malek Rasheed.
Malek~ a pleasure to meet you all. I wish it was in better circumstances but I thank you all for joining me in this job.
Brielle~ Joining? You will be coming along Grand Commander?
Malek~ Please, just Malek is fine. And yes; after all what kind of father would not go to save his daughter? I know that things seem bleak for Mana. I am not in denial. But, I need some closure. And I hope you all will help me get that closure.
Reginald~ Yes... Of Course.
Yuta~ So... How are we getting to the island? This Uninhabitable zone seems fucking vast.
Nyel~ Unlike before, I am not as familiar with this zone...
Merlo~ we survived one! We can survive this one too!
Saito~ Hmm..
Savas~ Yes well, it is not the same exactly. This zone has no safe path. We will have to stay close together and get to a small in-land where some militia scouts are waiting with a boat that will take us to Eiza.
Reginald~ That's a pretty good plan, let's go!
The group, along with the three militia soldiers, travel through the barren valley. They stayed near one another as much as they could. It wasn't long till they were surrounded by 6 quadrupedal jinn. One appears from the underground and knocks Brielle out cold. Asimara moves to protect her as the others get ready to battle!
Reginald~ It's been a good while since I fought some Jinn. Hopefully, they're pretty good!
Saito~ Are you going to use your "Skill of the Hunt"?
