Allune was shocked, she felt just how disgusted the spirit was with the creature. But seeing how the spirit knocked it down, she nocks another arrow. This time she aims for its feet, hoping to immobilize it further.
The arrows hit one man in the neck, killing him, bounce off another man's armour, and the last sails over their heads, cutting the female priest that he can see a little better now. @merkros As the bandits bluster, three horsemen charge up on the road, the leader, a mustachioed young man, shooting arrows that kills one of the bandits. Another, however, sails forwards and nicks Morwenna's arm, leaving a bloody gash. The three horsemen draw melee weapons and charge. Three bandits stay behind to handle Rhaelicca and Morwenna, while the rest go to meet the horsemen's charge.
The arrow bites into its foot, hampering it as it tries to stand. Allune hears a twig snap behind her, but turning her head sees Matthias emerge from the darkness. "What in the name of the gods..." He looks in horror at the monstrosity.
Hearing the twit snap behind her, she readied another arrow, and nocked it as she jumped back. "M-matthias! What are you doing here?" She let out a sigh of relief, "That's the gamekeeper, and his wife. I-I don't know what happened. But, I reckon that black knight had something to do with it." She said as she turns back, shooting another arrow, this time onto the creature's head.
Together, the two archers are able to pour arrows into its head as it stands and walks towards them. Just as it raises its scythe to cut Allune in half, she looses a final arrow which brings it down, collapsing to the ground beside her.
Allune gulped, "Is... is it dead?" She asked in a terrified tone, as she readies another arrow. "M-maybe we should burn it?" She suggested, while trying to determine whether it was still alive or not.
"Good idea." Poking it with an arrow to ensure that it doesn't get up, Matthias begins piling twigs and brushwood on the monster. "Do you have anything to light it?" He douses it in alcohol.
Mszczuj make battle cry with sir Bolesław and squire, one to fear bandits and two to call rest of the party. He let charge sir Bolesław first because he have battlehorse and next will be him and squire. He swing his sword to strike wooden part of poleaxe one bandits and secend push in face another.
"Well, I have my dagger, think you can light it with that?" Allune giggled, trying to push down her fear. "I don't think there are any fire spirits around. You want to check inside the cabin? I'm sure the gamekeeper had something..."
"Do I want to go into the creepy cabin? Let me think about that for a sec-, No! Of course I don't want to!" He smirks, before hesitantly walking inside. After a few moments, he exits with some flint. "Are you alright?" A look of concern is illuminated on his face as sets the corpse on fire, backing away several paces in case that sets it off again. I remains inert, however. "Crap, I should have taken out the arrows first." Allune notices that she has 14 arrows left.
While Matthias searched for something to burn the body, Allune kept watch of it. Her heart still beating rapidly, she failed to notice his return. "Wha- o-oh, yes. I'm alright, it's just, that black knight. I doubt he did this for fun, what was his aim?" She said, as she sighed. "Don't, we don't know if it's blood is poison. What if you get cursed if you touch it?" She added, as the body burned along with their arrows. "Anyway, we should inform everyone. Who knows if that black knight has truly left."
"Who knows why someone would do something like this. Yeah, let's get back." Cautiously, Matthias leads her back through the woods in the dark. As the sight of the cabin shrinks away in the distance, disappearing, the sound of birds and crickets returns to the forest, the normally mundane sound almost unimaginably comforting.
"Haaa." Allune let out another sigh of relief, "Looks like it's over... for now at least." She said as they headed back. She heads to where she left her horse. "So, what were you doing out here?" She asked Matthias as they walked.
Angelo chuckled nervously, 'N-No? I'm already quite on edge. I don't really know how this works exactly, but I fear you'd be... disappointed?'
"Looking for you, idiot. I came by your home to deliver the meat, and the soldiers there told me that you'd gone off into the woods. I assumed you were going to go demon hunting, so I came after you. What were you thinking?" He looks concerned. "If you died... I don't know what I'd-," he cuts himself off. "I don't know what Janina and I would do."
"If you're worried about cumming too early, there are ways to deal with that." She grabs his cock, a light emanating from between her fingers, and he finds himself pulled from the edge of orgasm, ready to go again.
'I, uh I was a bit--wha-?' Angelo looked perplexed, as his state of arousal subsided, 'You know... sex... magic? Are you sure you're not one of those succubi you warned me about?'
She laughs. "Maybe." Marguerite shakes her head. "You'll find out soon enough that if I was a succubus, you'd already be pumping that cum inside me. It's not sex magic, per se, just another form of healing magic. A slight alteration to a spell intended to restore a warrior's stamina." She climbs onto the bed. "Maybe, though, there's something you can do for me, if you're not ready to take that step?"
After climaxing together the sisters remained on the bed, panting in exhaustion as they caught their breaths. Ophelia was the first to recover, moving around on the bed until she was lying on her side and facing her sister. “Hope you enjoyed that as much as I did, sis...” She said and kissed Adriana on the lips passionately. “There's more we could do, but, as much as I enjoy our 'sisterly bonding', I need to get up early tomorrow, so we'll have to stop here for tonight. But we can continue this after I get back, if you want...” she paused to give her sister another kiss “I probably don't need to say it, but please keep this our little secret - most people will probably react poorly if they find out what we just did...” another pause and another kiss “I hope you'll be thinking of me when you are alone in your room at night - I know I'll be thinking of you as I pleasure myself... and I hope we will do this sort of thing again when I get back...” She gave Adriana another kiss on the lips. (Time to do some catching up – still two pages to read...)
'That's... an interesting use of spells... quite clever,' Angelo said and his eyes followed her move to the bed, lingering on her breasts and long, shapely legs. The young man slowly approached the bed too and he cleared his voice, 'I, hum, I should be fine after your spell. So... whatever you wish to do most with me... you're the expert here, Marguerite.'
