Still with the soft feeling of Aurelia lips on his lips, Kestrel climbed to the top of the church that was in front of the place where they were going to heartlessly burn the little girl. They were right. Magic had a very ugly and fearsome face. A face they where about to see. The church wasn't very high, but from up there, he could see how Martha and Aurelia slowly faded into the distance.
The breeze waver his robes, as he took out a very small vial of a black liquid. He closed her eyes and put his hands together, standing in perfect balance on the top of the building. "Fac remissionis hodie propter peccata, nostra regente, non autem anima innocens infans." The vial broke itself, hurting his hands with the little fragments of glass, the liquid mixing with his blood, as it became darker and colder.
His arms separated, forming a cross. Dark clouds formed above the town and a the wind blow hard. But Kestreel remained immobile in his place. "Vestra peccata mortifera cecidit mortales eius ira." His voice was deep and strong, and could be clearly heard in all town. "Amove prohibens viam nostram." Everybody was now, paying attention to him, beginning to realize what had they unleashed upon themselves. "Damnasse, fiducia, fides et desiderium." His voice was no longer his. It was replaced for the voice of thouthands of damned magicians that sold their souls for power and wealth. Now granting Kestreel all their power. "Necat diligere per singulos exhibito, ignis." He oppened his eyes, now as blank as ivory. "Innocentius hostiis pro immitis sceleribus!" The thousand voices expressed pure anger, as the time started to bend, starting to compress every second in a tiny bit of time in the space. "Preda ad aliquam insanientium pro impulsivi consilia!" Every lapse of time collided in the same insignificant spot, finally breaking the time around Kestreel. Running was no longer necessary. Then, he just muttered. "Sed frustra conabitur."
The time stopped, and Kestreel was forced to grant peace to the thousand tortured souls, that so deserved the punishment they were suffering. But there was no time for that, he just hoped the sacrifice wasn't in vain. "Ianuae Magicae..." Muttered him. Still with great remains of power, Kestreel was able to teleport next to the little girl and grab her between her arms. Then the time and space readjusted themselves, sending the whole town, and everything in it to the void of the emptiness, in the 'Edge of Forever'. The last thing he could think before they were gone forever: 'Hope Aurelia doesn't forget about us...'
