Chapter Forty

The shadows spat me out. Stumbling, I exited the Shadowlands. I could feel Tarm curled up under my skin. She felt restless. Rubbing my left wrist, I tried to comfort her. She’d been rejected, just like me. I’m sure that it bothered her.

Nora, Cici, and Malory were waiting for me.

“Amaleen… left.”

Shaking my head, I felt hopeless.

“I’m sorry,” Malory said.

I was starting to feel like an unlovable pariah.

Fuck me.

“I’m sorry, Sir,” Nora and Cici said almost in unison.

“Thank you,” I told them.

If I fell apart and sulked, all of this would go to shit. The soldiers and Malory needed me to keep my shit together.

“How are the wounded?” I asked, trying to think about something else.

“They’ll be up and moving tomorrow,” Nora replied. “Miss Felicity’s potions are helping a lot and the dark elves are busy taking care of them.”

“Eli and Felicity are doing great on the machines,” I sighed. “However, there’s a corpse outside with a medallion that is sending out a signal. I need to go outside and retrieve it. Then I need to get it the hell out of here.”

“Sir, I found a locked room. Maybe it has weapons in it. I want to be able to support you, but without armor or weapons, it’s a suicide mission.”

“Show me the room.”

Nora led me up to two flights of stairs. There were more tiny rooms here, and some of them were set up for guests of the refuge. There were fucking beds, clothing hanging in the closets, dressers, chairs to lounge in, and a fireplace.

And even better, there were individual showers and bathtubs.

“Have everyone pick a room,” I told Nora. “Let’s take advantage of real beds.”

All of the women smiled.

At the end of the hall, a thick metal door with runes covering it screamed trouble. Studying the runes, I made out several. Tracing them, I felt power stored within them.

Arcane Engineering

Danger Detected

There are three lock points on this door. All three are guarded with deadly wards. They must be unlocked in sequential order.

Running my hands over the patterns that had to be the lock points, I let my mind relax. Staring at the runes with wizard sight, I studied the patterns.

They felt familiar to me.

Frowning, I tried to figure out why, but the memory wouldn’t surface.

Do you wish to try to unlock the first pattern?
