Katrina

Chapter 16 - Warfare Potions

Scrit transformed into elephant. Aerdnah, Muuqe and the birds began to remove all the rocks that prevented entry to Sao. Meanwhile, in Aerdnah's cave, Eanar created potions; first, to save Katrina from Oniblah, and second, for the war that was coming. When Katrina woke up, she found her hands and feet were bound on a pile of leaves that the huge frog had gotten for her, for her comfort, and she observed the creature that was focused on his task.

"Eanar." She said.

"Katrina, how are you?"

"Well, I'm fine thanks... Can you please tell me what I'm doing tied up?" She didn't understand anything that was happening.

"Basically, my dear Katrina, I'm healing you."

"From what?"

"Oniblah."

"Oniblah? What the hell, Eanar, what's going on? Tell me why I'm tied up?"

"Katrina, Oniblah is trying to enter your mind, and we fear that he may come to control you completely. He came here to control you, you know?"

"No, I don't know. Why'd you say that? Is it because I've done something wrong?"

"You see, it's not that you've done something bad. It's that he's controling your mind a little, and making you say stupid things." He said, as he approached her with his hands daubed in Roro Oil.

"What're you doing?" She asked, moving away from him as best she could.

"Katrina, for Nature's sake, don't be silly. I'm not going to hurt you. I just want to help you, but if you don't want to be helped... Nevermind." He said, turning around to wipe his hands on a dirty cloth he had laying on a rock."

"No, Eanar, I'm sorry. I don't know what's happening. I didn't know that Oniblah was controlling me... Where are the others?"

"The others have gone to the Ruins of Sao to look for creatures to join their army, and you have to heal because you have to go with the potions that I'm creating for the war that is coming to us."

"Do I have to go alone to the ruins? I don't know how to get there."

"Well, you don't need to worry. So shut up. You just woke up and you're already making my head beat like a drum."

"I'll be quiet." She said, making a face. "How long have I been sleeping?"

"An entire day."

"A whole day sleeping?" She asked in surprise.

"Yes, but it was perfect because I could find the formula to cure you without having to hear you complain."

"Well, as you are today, Eanar... You're a bit stupid sometimes, you know that?"

"I know. Now relax." He said, approaching her again.

When he got close enough to her, he spread his haunches toward her and massaged her temples so that they were impregnated with the oil. He continued massaging while saying some words that she didn't understand and kept massaging her for a few minutes. After this, he opened his Ticud and before the laser came out he smeared part of the remaining oil in his hands over a tiny hole that the Ticud had. He then pressed a button that allowed the laser to go in the direction of her forehead. He left it in the same position for a few minutes and the laser again became a bubble that surrounded her entire head. She screamed but he couldn't hear anything. It seemed that she was going to explode from one moment to another inside the bubble. It started to glow with a dark burgundy color and inside the bubble appeared a kind of electric rays that seemed to enter inside her head through the temples.
