Deimos scraped with a knife at the base of a tree, collecting fungus for some potions. The smell of burning reached him, he stood up and sniffed the air and started walking at a fast pace. Deimos paused at the edge of the forest and peered out, houses lined the area in half circle without a house in the middle, beyond the middle space a large church stood, people shuffling into it. Deimos noticed smoke coming from behind one of the houses. He crept around the edge, keeping out of sight in the shadows He gagged at what he saw. A tall spike stood around a mass of straw and wood, and a man was impaled through it, his insides spilling out into the ground, and his flesh charring and turning black

Raver gasped at the sight and covered her mouth with her hand. "Deimos..." She whispered. "Do you know what there doing?" She asked him standing by his side.

Peregrine came up, saw the sight before him, and turned his head away, sickened.

"It is a punishment", Khalida said dismounting from Kuchi. "For what I do not know". Khalida looked up when she heard a scream. It was a female... and she was next. "Jen", she gasped before running forward. She ran towards her friend and stood between her and what was to come. "Let her go".

Peregrine Vollo close to the torturers and knocked an arrow to his bow. He aimed his weapon at them.

A man stepped towards Khalida and smirked. "You would stand between a horse thief and the punishment she deserves?" Khalida stood her ground. "Let her go".

"Hey, do you know my skill with a bow?" Peregrine questioned the man.

"You boy?" the man laughed. Khalida drew her sword and sliced one of Jen's captors in half. She grabbed her friend and carried her off. "Khali?" Jen asked weakly. Khali smiled, slightly in tears. "Yes it's me".

Peregrine stayed on the spot, waiting to rescue any other prisoners who might be held captive there.

Khalida put Jen down in a cave and listened to her heart... she was very faint. "It'll be alright Jen", she said putting a hand on the womans stomach. "It'll be alright".
Jen nodded weakly and Khalida focused her mind on Peregrine. Peregrine... she needs help she called out.

Peregrine heard her call. He wheeled Vollo around, even while he did so he felt rotton leaving the other prisoners.
He rode up. "What can I do to help?" He asked.

Khalida stood up and walked over to him. "She's very weak", she whispered. "And to make matters worse she's pregnant. If we dont heal her now we could loose her and the baby..."

Peregrine wordlessly poked himself in the chest with his thumb as if to say, Do you want me to heal her?

Khalida returned the look with one of her famous I'm looking at you aren't I? stares.

Peregrine cletched his fist. After a few seconds, fire poured out of his hand. It almost looked liquid. His healing fire.
