The Interrogation Part 2

At that moment the dungeon door swung open, it was Lucien. He stood there in disbelief with his eyes fixated on Zera, half naked with bruises and blood all over her. Silvana turned to the doorway, leaving the blade lodged inside Zera.

"What do you think you're doing Silvana? Lucien uttered in a concerning tone.

"What does it look like? Im working."

She responded with utter sarcasm.

"NO,NO,NO! Athena said to interrogate her not to TORTURE HER! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?"

"IM DOING WHAT EVERYONE ELSE IS AFRAID TO DO! IM DOING YOU ALL A FAVOUR!"

"THIS IS NOT HOW DRAKEN TRAINED YOU!"

"DRAKEN IS DEAD, I AM YOUR GRAND PRIESTESS AND YOU SHALL OBEY ME AS SUCH!"

Lucien was in shock, he no longer recognised his comrade. This was not the Silvana he knew. She was acting barbaric.

Grand Priestess or not, she went against the Apostles wishes and treated Zera in a disgusting manner.

Lucien walked towards Silvana and looked her dead in the eyes.

"Maybe giving you that title was a mistake"

He turned back to walk away before Silvana snatched his arm.

"Say that one more time"

Lucien shrugged off her hand and walked towards Zera.

"Take a deep breath young one"

Lucien carefully removed the blade from her stomach causing her to let out another disgruntled moan of pain.

He then proceeded to unlock her chains and laid her down on the floor.

He took off his blazer and covered her with it.

"Prisoner or not, this is not how a Guardian is supposed to act...heal her and I wont mention this to Athena" He remarked, as he left the cell slamming the door behind him.

Silvana conflicted, abided by his wish and sat on the floor beside her.

"Astramance"

"Advanced Enchantment"

"Healing Solar Ray"

"So, you really are an Astramancer" said Zera, trying her best to hide the pain she was clearly in.

"That's rare these days, I haven't even encountered one in Eden...They say those chosen to wield Astra are-"

"-Meant for greater destinies...I've been told that story so often I despise hearing it"

Silvana was clearly not in the mood for conversing but she decided to put her pride aside to see where this would lead.

"So...lets start from over. What's this Eden you keep talking about?"

"Its where im from, my home realm...similar to yours but slightly more ahead in terms of technology"

"Your home realm, you're saying there's more then one? please tell you dont think im gullible enough to believe your nonsense?"

"Well, you believed me before..."
