The knight in the abyss

Chapter 822 Sune's Priest

As soon as Brutal finished speaking, there was a sound of flapping wings in the sky.Everyone looked up and found a group of ravens flying towards this side quickly, the leading one looked very familiar.The crows fell in front of the group of people, and they all changed back to human form the moment they landed. The leader was the brown-haired elf Soveris, the leader of the arakkoa organization.

"You are all right! That's great!" Soveris led the other companions and bowed deeply to Lancelot, "Thank you, Sir, you have rescued many of our companions, and words cannot express our gratitude Feelings……"

"You rescued your companion?" Brutal asked a little strangely, "When?"

"We saw your battle just now..." a ragged man behind Soveris said, "It's in those cages in front of the hag's hut."

"Ah! Those crows!" Brutal slapped his hands, "I said, why do you need to do that kind of thing... So you knew it from the beginning?"

"I guessed, but I'm not sure." Lancelot shrugged, "I'm glad I guessed right."

"We have a lot of things to talk to you, but this is not the place to talk." Soveris paused for a moment on Fran's body, then reached out and took out a few black feathers from his bosom, "Let's go." , let's go back to Raven Castle first."

"How's it going?"

As soon as he saw Aramir come out of the room, Brutal sprang up from the bench and glared at the elf priest with his bloodshot eyes.It had been two hours since the companions had arrived at Rookie Keep, and the dwarf still hadn't removed his bloodstained and dented armor, or smoothed out his beard, which was charred at the edges.

"Shh, keep your voice down, they are all asleep." Aramir put his index finger on his lips, "The magic has already healed their bodies, but their mental wounds will not recover so quickly. But don't worry, Just take some rest and they'll be fine."

"Oh... that's good..." Brutal seemed to relax, "Can I go in and see Dad?"

"Can you promise to be quiet?"

"Of course I swear on my beard!"

"Go." The elf priest nodded, "When he was treating Master Barend just now, he kept calling your name."

"I heard." Big tears welled up in the dwarf's eyes, "Oh, damn elf, go away, leave me alone for a while..."

--------------

The temporary ward is a hut located in a corner. It is relatively quiet and suitable for patients to rest.After coming out from the inside, the elf found that it was already evening, and large groups of crows were constantly flying in the sky, like rolling black clouds, conveying some kind of ominous omen.

Although it was already dark, most of the buildings in the fortress were not lit, except for a longhouse on the hillside.It was the tavern in the keep, and also the meeting place for the residents of Raven Castle.As he approached, the elf was surprised to see some changes in the appearance of the tavern.The original wooden roof was lifted like shutters, and every beam was covered with secret numb black birds, as if they were members of the Raven Council.

There was no guard at the door, so the elf opened the door and walked in, only to find that every round table inside was crowded with people.People have different expressions, some are excited, some are nervous, some are worried, but judging from the wine glasses in front of them, most of them are not in the mood to enjoy the mellow and smooth signature ale of this tavern.

His powerful and reliable companion was seated at a large long table in the center of the room, discussing something eagerly with those around him.Aramiel didn't go up immediately, he squeezed to a small table in the corner, the vampire girl was sitting there with the zombie princess, holding a glass of her favorite dark red drink - freshly squeezed grape juice.

"How did they discuss it?"

The elf sat down beside his companion.Due to the breath of undead creatures on the two of them, there are only a few empty chairs in the entire tavern.

"I just talked about our experience in the ancient temple." Little Isa put down her cup, "How are Uncle Karaline and Grandpa Barend?"

"I'm afraid we still need to rest for a while." Aramir shook his head lightly, "The life energy summoned by divine magic can repair their bodies, but the pain of dying is not so easy to recover. It's a bit ironic, for those People who died very cleanly will only be confused about their own experiences after resurrection. On the contrary, those guys who were pulled back from the brink of death will be in a traumatized state for a long time... Ah, I’m so sorry, let me tell you This is a bit inappropriate..."

"It's okay." Little Isa showed a sad smile, "When I was killed, I hardly felt any pain..."

"And I have long been numb from the long torture." Fran shook the glass in her hand indifferently, I really miss it... I almost forgot how delicious the ale here is, but after I tasted the first sip After that, all the memories come back. "

"Have you ever been here before, miss?"

"I'm the king's daughter after all." Zombie Princess shrugged, "When Soveris and I were dating, he especially liked to bring me here..."

"What?" Aramir's exclamation attracted several strange eyes, and he quickly lowered his voice, "Then you..."

"Divided." Zombie Princess raised her glass and took another sip, "It was about half a year before I was killed."

"Because of what?"

"Because he's an elf, and I can't bear it when I'm an ugly old woman and he's like a guy in his thirties. We had a big fight...maybe several. I said he was He will definitely abandon me and find a new love, but he thinks that I am an insult to him." Zombie Princess smiled self-deprecatingly, raised her hand to wipe the foam hanging from the corner of her mouth, and rubbed it again. Rubbing his eyes, "Look at my current state, this is really a wonderful irony."

"What a sad story." Alamer's voice sounded very sincere. "I'm sorry."

"I heard that you are a priest of Sune?" Fran suddenly remembered something, "Do you think my worry is right?"

"Your worry is not unreasonable, but generally the situation you said will not happen."

"why?"

"Because love has two forms. It can be because of appearance or because of soul. The two are not contradictory, but only the latter can last."

"You are supporting my point of view."

"No, I'm not done yet. If it's only a superficial attraction, love will end as quickly as shooting stars in the sky, morning dew, and spring flowers. Long before the first wrinkle creeps up your face, he will Losing interest in you, you don't wait until old age actually comes to get dumped."
