Offsprings

Carswell's viewpoint

Flame, I had been engulf in flames for days. The flame burnt hot and deadly, scorching but not enough to kill me. I was in the middle of the circle of fire, the tall lava red and golden flame. The ground matched the red of the flames, almost as if I was sitting on lava. But it didn't bother me.

I had been sitting in the middle with eyes close and cross-legged, just feeling the heat of the flame and watching it dance to my breathing with eyes closed. I had to endure enough and concentrate enough for days before I would be able to wake him up.

It was hard concentrating when I kept feeling like something was wrong out there with Xyra and my people. I felt like I was needed out there, Emperor was greatly bothered by it. But we knew we had to stay where we were, for their sake as well as ours. I also knew that if anything should ever happen, Xyra and Caesar would be able to hold it off long enough for me to return.

Hopefully.
