Chapter Ten

An Unwelcome Reunion

Ignis walked around to my front, stopping just a foot shy of my face and crouched down to meet my glower with a smug expression.

“I was surprised to run into you here, friend. More so that you presented us with this great opportunity to catch up” Ignis said as he gestured to my bound form. “Your friends went on ahead and left us quite the little present, be a real shame not to accept it” he added smugly.

I opened my mouth to respond yet found that no words would come out. Confused, I focused on my status bar which displayed a mute symbol. Ignis must have picked up on that confusion as he continued.

“Ah, save your breath Robin, you can’t see him in your present situation but we got a warlock with us today keeping a lid on any potential cries for aid. Not that I think anyone would hear you over the crowd or get that you ain’t a part of the show” the Dark Cleric mused.

I looked around in what few ways I could yet only saw Ignis and the outline of a few more men at my sides. Everyone must have rushed off to see the fight making for a perfect ambush opportunity for Ignis, great. Frankly, I was surprised he was even here. The Wolf’s Blood guild didn’t care much for his group so I had figured they’d steer clear. I guess I should have expected this considering what they say about assuming.

“Now I can see you are distraught, but worry not my friend. We are just gonna have a little field trip together and spend some quality time, Would you render the anesthesia, Red?” Ignis commented, referencing someone I didn’t know. It was then that I felt a sharp pain at the back of my head. It overwhelmed my senses for a brief moment and then nothing.

I regained consciousness to the feeling of a few hard slaps in the face. I opened my eyes, groggy and squinted at the figure in front of me.

“Well well, look who’s awake, Thank you for joining us in this auspicious occasion,” Ignis said smugly. He, Gnarl, and the elf archer from before all stood before me. Stood a lot taller than they should actually be. I tried to move only to realize exactly why, I was buried in the ground up to my neck. This was not good, no hands means no spells, messaging, or commands. I tried to reach out to the group via mental party chat, but was only met with an “out of range” notification.

I did what little looking I could of my surroundings, mostly desert with some grass patches, not even any mobs in sight. To which Ignis seemed to pick up on, judging by his ever widening grin.

“You see Robin, when I was a kid, I loved those old western movies. Not so much the heroes, always so predictable No, I liked the villains” he said, splaying his arms out wide. “You see, they were clever, crafty little devils who devised all sorts of tricks and torture.
