Summary
Breath hitched. Running. Twig snapping. Bow string drawn. Running. River flowing. They're above me. They're following me. Chasing. I run faster.
Lost. Dense trees. Branches scratch my arms. I find a river. The arrow misses me. Barely. I look back and I see the hunter in the tree. A warning shot. I ignore the chance for mercy. I leap over a fallen tree as I follow the river, snow cascading all around me. I know it is no use, this chase. There are too many of them. It is too late for me now.
"Fen'Harel ma halam." The hunter says as he pulls his string back for a fatal shot. The threat burns in my entire being. I am no longer afraid.
My left hand makes contact with the bark of an elm tree. I did not know how it happened, but it flowed through me in an instant. I keep running, and when I look back I am almost blinded by the bright orange colour that covers the landscape. Smoke travels through the air as the heat washes over me. I don't see the hunters now, but I cannot be certain that they have fallen prey to the flames.
I continue on.
