Sprixx shielded his eyes from the sun overhead as he looked towards the east. "Ratchet," he said with a nod, "just a few more miles to go, then we can sell these fools."

Nat
Barrens
Nat awoke with a start when their cages hit a bump on the road. She was groggy, and had hardly had anything to eat in the time she had been traveling. She shifted slightly, trying to see out of her bad eye. Nats wrists were raw and sore from the bonds that held them together. The troll sighed heavily, feeling hopeless.

Phillip nodded. "Yes, I expect to wait for her to crawl out of her little rathole. So I can kill her." He stated.

Character: Snowmane
Location: Darrowshire
Snowmane felt a tremendous amount of conflict welling up inside her. Here she was, talking to Phillip, who wanted to help her, who was trying to set her free, but she could still feel Kali's burning gaze cruelly observing her, casually waiting for the wrong movement, a sign of betrayal, at which point she would burst from the shadows and drag her back to her room.
And yet, she felt a part of her jump with surprise and disapproval when Phillip said he was going to kill the elf. There were many things wrong with Kalistra Sunstorm, and she had committed so many vile acts, but in a way, she was a prisoner too. Somewhere, deep inside, Kalistra Sunstorm was a scared little girl, shackled to a yearning magical hunger as real as the physical hunger Snowmane had endured during her confinement. When it really came down to it, Snowmane didn't want her to die.
"I don't know what to do, Phillip..." She finally stated honestly, reluctantly letting a layer of her thoroughly reinforced guard down for a moment.

"Noone ever really does." Phillip replied.

Snowmane hesitated for a moment, then started to move in in a confused attempt at an embrace, when suddenly she froze in place, her hackles raising in fear. "She's watching me, Phillip. Right now. I can feel her. I have to go, please."

"Then let her watch...." Phillip told her, setting his hands reassuringly on her shoulders. "I dare say, she can't get in. She can't get you here..."

Snowmane stood there, paralyzed by indecision and fear. She wanted nothing more than to believe Phillip, but with Kalistra watching her, scrutinizing her, judging her, she just couldn't do it.
She squeaked out a whimper and attempted to teleport out.

"I told you Snowmane." Phillip said, the wards still holding. "I can't let you leave yet, not until you're free. And not until you feel safe..."

"I have to obey," Snowmane answered simply, hurling a pyroblast at Phillip. The attack wasn't meant to harm him, simply distract him while Snowmane set about unweaving the wards from the inside.

Phillip jumped back, launching a cone of frost magics to deflect the attack. "There's only one way you're getting out of here, Snowmane...." He said, looking as if he might very well start crying. "I'm sorry, but I can't loose you again." He said, launching a frostbolt to freeze her.

Snowmane too looked like she was near tears. Why would Kali do this to her? It was like setting a bit of food in front of a starving child, but punishing them severely if they reached for it. It was so unfair.
She conjured a layer of magma armor to absorb the frostbolt, returning fire with an arcane barrage of unusual potency.

Phillip held out his hand, letting the barrage smash into it and leave magical burns up his arm, along with tearing his robes. He winced, conjuring his ice armor and letting loose with a shockwave of frost; his floor, couch, table, food, and the wine freezing solid as it rushed for Snowmane.

"Joo do not see da evil inside 'er. She was not like Dag'rema - nowhere near so - but she strove to. After what she 'as done to joo - to all of us - she denied 'erself redemption.
As for learnin' thin's from 'er..."
The troll turned around, raising his hand. From the wound piercing Lak'tuk's neck thin trails of energy flew into his open palm.
"It is not 'er soul, mind joo," he added calmly.
Character
: Katsuro
Location
: Barrens
Katsuro pried his eyelids open. He refused to lose hope, refused to even believe something like that could happen to him and Nat. He would find a way for them to escape, or they would be saved, or something else would happen - he refused to acknowledge the gravity of the situation.

Location: Darrowshire
Snowmane blinked away, trying to avoid the frost nova. She reappeared several feet away, once more fidgiting with the wards. Suddenly, her reserve energy ran out, hours of constant fight-or-flight response taking their toll, and she found she barely had the strength to stand.
Character: Gurka
Location: Azjol-Nerub
"If it's not her soul, what is it?" Gurka asked, trying to stay equally calm.

Phillip blinked in next to her, suddenly realizing something seemed wrong, and that she looked exhausted. "Snowmane?"

Snowmane put her hand up on the wall to stabilize herself, feeling very dizzy. "Phillip, help me..." She murmured tiredly, sliding down the wall into a sitting position. "Please. I don't.... I don't know what to do. I'm so afraid."

Darrowshire
Phillip sat down next to her, taking one of the worgen's hands in both of his. He winced somewhat as her fur brushed against his burned arm, but bit back the pain. "You don't have to be afraid anymore Snowmane. You're safe, just let me help you..."

Snowmane rested her head on Phillip's shoulder as the tears began to flow. She started to say something, but couldn't think of what she wanted to say first, so she merely continued sobbing.
Character: Gurka
Location: Azjol-Nerub
"I see," Gurka nodded, a slightly concerned look on her face. "And Ga'Crane, please, don't lose yourself. We shouldn't stoop to cruelty."
