Patina – Chapter 56
If Sadja ever got out of this, she did not want to see a rope ever again, in her entire life. She bit and wriggled as her captors carried her away, with some success, as she managed to make them bleed and scream, but little else. One of the men pulled out a knife and…

Patina – Chapter 55
This was going to be the end of his career. The Hunter limped forward, holding onto a cane, his knife, the only weapon he still had, sheathed in his belt. He had lost and burned enough blood for a month, and he’d need a long time to completely recover; no more spells and tricks for…

Patina – Chapter 54
The Hunter let out a pained wheeze, rolling on the moss-covered roof until he hit a slab of concrete that stopped, quit roughly, his descent. He weakly tried to stand up, turning his head to regard the Eerie looming over him. It was bleeding from a thousand gashes, dripping ichor all over the ground and…

Patina – Chapter 49
Cloria bit into her hand. She cursed and swore in all three languages she knew, most of all she cursed the giant Eerie that had appeared just when her victory was at hand. She did not perceive any interference from another Will, and anything so strong that it made something like that appear she could…

Patina – Chapter 47
By now, running came to Sadja like a second nature. She did not have much time to think. Better to focus all her energies on putting one foot after the other. Next to her the man guided her through the labyrinthine forest, dodging branches and old cables, broken pipelines and stepping on polished bones as…

Patina – Chapter 46
For the past few hours the Hunter had been on edge. More than usual. While the wolf-girl seemed to be more collaborative, he doubted he managed to come through to her. She was clearly scared, and a part of his heart scraped against his chest every time he looked at her tired, dejected eyes. There…

Patina – Chapter 44
She was still ensnared. Her ankle still tinkled softly as she and her captor slumbered through the southern part of the blasted city. Now that they had found a place where to rest, he had spent hours chanting in some language she did not understand, drawing a circle of blood around the corner where they…

Patina – Chapter 43
The Hunter knew, in his heart of hearts, that moments of peace were either short lived, or paid for at a steep price. Often both. And yet, he couldn’t help himself. Watching the thin girl devour the cans put a dry smile upon his lips. There was just something about her eagerness that reminded him…

Patina – Chapter 42
Throughout the whole expedition, Cloria had lost or broken many things. Her pride was one of those, notwithstanding her posturing with the crew. But as Spirits would have it, she had managed to save her spyglass. She brought it up to her eye, scanning through kilometers of forest, through the air now finally clearing from…

Patina – Chapter 41
Sadja’s mind had wandered through dark corridors. Sometimes she was back in the underground hallways she had escaped from, but this time no matter how far she ran or how fast, a tall figure in white always reached for her from behind, holding her with her hook-like hands and pulling her in the dark with…
