" V al, how are your feet?"

Val flashed Elise a grateful smile, commanding his brain to forget how beautiful she looked with her locks knotted up in a tight bun, showing off her soft cheeks and the sensual curve of her throat, protected as it was by the shimmering mesh collar that made up the odd cross between a cloak and robe that she wore, similar to the one article of clothing Val himself wore, though hers looked far more graceful hugging her fully clothed curves than Halvar's cloak did hugging his frame, and thank goodness the sword and buckler belt Sten had loaned him along with his blade kept everything in place.

"My feet are actually okay. This corridor may be of dead black stone, but it is just as smooth as the marble-like stone chambers we just left. I used to train barefoot in both wrestling and swordplay, so my callouses are tougher than most peoples'. As long as we're not walking over jagged or slimy rock, I should be fine. At least, I hope so." He tried not to dwell too deeply on the brooding dark stone tunnel they presently traversed, lit only by dim red light seeming to emanate from the ether itself that Halvar was emitting to show the way.

Val frowned, somehow certain that some fundamental law of physics was at least being bent if not outright broken, before finally shrugging. Who was he to judge another reality's physics? Not after Highlords or Darklords or whatever those psion masters wanted to call themselves had poked inside his brain. That, Val, thought, was a definite no-no in any reality he understood. Then his cheeks flushed as he remembered the ten gallons of liquid Silbion he, for all intents and purposes, had made vanish inside his own personal pocket universe, still able to feel it safely snug in some metaphoric ten by ten grid.

Elise's smile grew. "What in the world are you thinking about, Val?"

Val shrugged. "Certainly not on how dark and deep this tunnel is, or the tons of stone above us, or the fact that any game I've played where the heroes are adventuring underground, there's always something nasty waiting for them just ahead."

Gregor frowned. "You just had to say it, didn't you, Valor?" He sighed. "This is about as high a mana world as any in the Dominion. Quite frankly, I'd be surprised if we didn't run into any sentient manifestations of such. I mean, in addition to you, Val." He smirked, short feet windmilling at a rapid pace, keeping up with his larger friends.

Val chuckled softly. "Well, if I fade back to the ether and wake up back home once we leave this place entirely, I guess I'll be okay with that." He shrugged. "At least I got to enjoy a day utterly free of pain in my dream."

Soft violet eyes peered sadly into his own. "Even your dreams plague you with pain, Val?"

Val shrugged and nodded. "I'm afraid so, Elise. Those I'm aware of, anyway, but then it's almost a distant thing.
