512 Want What Is Hidden Inside You

There were five people in hooded robes, the two in front holding wooden staffs while the rest stopped at the edges of the meadow. There seemed to be more people hiding in the darkness of the woods, and although she didn't know how many there were, she could tell they had surrounded her.

"W-Who are you all? Where is Dray, my husband?" she panicked. Her eyes immediately tried to find a familiar person among them, worried that they had captured Drayce. 

"Your husband was never here. It was an illusion you followed," she heard a woman's voice reply, and it came from one of the two figures holding a staff with a black shining orb over it. 

"Illusion?" Seren mumbled, and despite her fear, she felt a hint of relief that her husband was safe. The woman did something with her fingers which emitted the smoke and once again Drayce's handsome image was created in front of Seren.
