Chapter 20: Elena
You flinch, like you've been punched in the solar plexus. You look up, with your eyes glazing up in anger and hatred. "Not again! I will not stand to be betrayed by you again you evil bitch! Don't lower the bridge, I'd rather stay trapped behind this bridge than go with you, you bitch!"
"Kayla, what's wrong?" Li'a has come up behind you, and is resting one angelic hand on your shoulder. Her gentle touch makes you break down crying. "That bitch... she pretended she loved me, but turned me in to her father, the Duke. And then she did it again! I hate her with a passion I can barely begin to describe!"
"Please, Kayla, don't let your emotions destroy our aims, here. Perhaps yours and her interests coincide now, with Luhrash in the picture."
You've been ignoring Elena's pleas, but you notice she's lowered the bridge and hear "...stop Luhrash! You must help me! Please!" You are unable to move, just sitting on the floor crying.
Li'a picks you up and walks hurriedly across the bridge. You're too overcome with emotion to resist. "Please, do you have clothes for us?" Li'a says to Elena. It's obvious Li'a trusts Elena inherently, as you once so foolishly did.
"Yes." Elena pulls out two black cloaks just like her own, and hands one to Li'a and offers one to you. When you don't move, she drops it on your lap.
"Look, Kayla, I have something to tell you. I just found out about a secret plot to overthrow my father. As you can imagine, I have some... special relationships with some of the guards and one let this slip. I realized the only person I knew could help me was locked in a cell down in this pit, so I came to rescue her. The guard also told me about this angel here, and I hoped we could stop the plot while we had the chance. Are you with me?"
"Kayla, I think we should trust her. I sense evil in her, but it's receding. It's like something is causing her to drive all the evil from her system."
"With your father about to be killed, things like that happen. Anyway, Kayla, I have some pretty nice stuff here, which you can keep at the end of all this. Here's the dildo," Elena says, pulling it from one pocket, "and here's an extremely powerful magic dagger, whose magic properties are as of yet unknown. Are you with me?"
Rationalism is starting to creep back into your brain, but you're still overcome with pain and grief.
What do you do now?
