Grey Dawn

[Atelos]

“I think that’s best sorcerer.” Atelos’ head ached and his head rushed up to try and subdue the pain. His head was throbbing and he felt like it could implode at any minute upon him. He kept his straight face and continued along the white lines constantly looking at the expressionless sky.

Why hello there Spartan. I see you’ve come to your senses. Hades?! Oh the curse had lingered onto him. He muttered a curse and ignored Hades. You can’t feel it do you Spartan? You can’t feel yourself getting closer to him. He waved away these thoughts and pushed on with the Sorcerer. His head got light and he began to stumble.

Face it Spartan. You’re just afraid that I’m right. You’re afraid of not being important. You’re afraid of crumbling into the dust along with the rest of your pathetic village.

“Get out of my head Demon!” Atelos fell on his knees and clutched his head in agony. A piercing scream rang in his ears and he felt an arm on his shoulder. The screaming stopped and he saw Shang with a concerned look on his face.

“Are you alright Spartan?” He extended his hand to the Spartan and Atelos couldn’t help but smile. He took up the hand and he felt the Sorcerer pull up with his strength and he felt for once that he was at home once more. The piercing screaming had stopped, Hades’ voice was muffled and Atelos enjoyed the company of his close associate. He forgot where he was and the past and didn’t care much for the future. As long as he was supported by his friend it didn’t matter where the battle was and what it was against. Even something he thought was once good.
