D:A:R:K:N:E:S:S Awaits (crim)

[deepwallow]

"Not much for Iggre. Iggre was sent by Master to see if knight was ok. Is knight ok? Not hurt by guard?" Iggre asked curiously

[CrimsonMoon]

He smiles slightly," I'm fine, i wasnt physically barmed by the guards but... I'm not sure this mental scar will ever fade."

[deepwallow]

Iggre tilted his head. "Mental? What is knight talking about?" He questioned

[CrimsonMoon]

He laughs lightly, reachin out and patting the small creature's head," Your master probaby understands," he reassures

[deepwallow]

Iggre yipped and swatted away the knight's hands. "Gah! Iggre no is pet! Iggre is person, you see!" Iggre growled, looking angry

[CrimsonMoon]

The knight tilts his head," my little brither always liked it when i patted his head, he said when he was older, he'd get me back by patting MY head," he smiles and settles back

[deepwallow]

Iggre pouts, which is somehow adorable. "Iggre will pat the knight's head to get revenge then!" He decided

[CrimsonMoon]

" Exactly," The knght grins and settles back," So... What does he want to do with me? It's getting boring sitting here.. Not that talking to you isnt any fun.."

[deepwallow]

Iggre shrugs. "Iggre doesn't know really. Iggre thinks you'll become master's plaything." He muses

[CrimsonMoon]

".... 'Plaything'...?" He echoes, looking unsettled

[deepwallow]

Iggre nods. "Plaything! For torture, working, and whatever Master desires!" Iggre says cheerfully

[CrimsonMoon]

The knight frowns,"... He'll have to kill me first,"

[deepwallow]

Iggre frowns at the idea. "No! That would not be good for knight to die! Then Iggre would not have revenge of patting the knight's head!" Iggre protested

[CrimsonMoon]

The knight grins and once again pats Iggre's head teasingly," True true," he chirps

[deepwallow]

Iggre yelps and swats his hand before a chuckle comes from down the hall. "Patting Iggre on the head? You found his one weakness." A voices says as the shadow lord comes into view, a crooked and amused smile on his face. Iggre mutters something under his breath, pouting again

[CrimsonMoon]

" Poor Iggre," the knight muses, but pulls away from the bars and moves to the oppisite wall as far away as he could.

[deepwallow]

The Lord laughs and grins at the knight. "Afraid of me? Oh, you poor knight. But I have plans for you other than you being terrified. Come." He said, looking at the shackle as it unlocks suddenly, but snakes up to the knight's throat and becomes a leash, whose end The Lord is holding. Iggre opens the door as The Lord yanks him along. "Come now! Time to make yourself useful

[CrimsonMoon]

Defiance flares in his hazel eyes and he resists at first, not totally against chokin ghimself

[deepwallow]

The Lord looks back as his smile widens as he laughs. "You're resisting? How adorable. But I'm not opposed to dragging you." He said as he continues with a powerful yank that pull the knight to the floor as he started dragging him through the halls to something that would surprise him.

They were in an enormous cavern, a huge ravine separating them from the other walls of the vast cavern. Small huts and such could be seen basically everywhere on the wall, the forces of the shadow lord. They stepped onto a rock ledge and a flying rock platform came to them and they got on. "You'll be helping at the forge." The Lord said

[CrimsonMoon]

The knight gasps and when they stop finally gets to his feet,".... The forge..." He breathes, closing his eyes and trying to catch his breath
