Gavis ran onto the wood smacking all the relentless mystical hornets. Once they were all dead, he leaned on a mossy tree breathing heavily. The insects were crushed, but had already done their job. Gavis felt the debilitating venom creeping through his bloodstream. He felt heated from the inside.
Why hadn’t they swarmed? Why did the stragglers commence with the assault when they should have known it was a suicide mission? He didn’t understand the hornets were servants of the one who commanded the magick, and had no choice, no matter how spent they were, to comply.
He didn’t get the brunt of their assault, but he was stung with the hermetical poison. His end was just slower than Renae’s.
He was brooding about ending his existence earlier that morn, but witnessing his mate’s demise changed his feckless wantonness for his ending. He wanted Chorlisr to pay for his effrontery against them. His brash audacity to attack them when they did nothing. He had to destroy that arrogant callous child for his ignorance to attack them without provocation.
But first he had to get the poison out of his system before he could execute anything. He was immortal, and immortality was so boring to him, he had to interact with many finite souls of whatever time he was in. He knew of a warlock living deeper in the wood. He should be able to correct him. After all, it was Magick, and who else could lift this deadly spell other than a warlock?
Gavis got up from the tree, and began to walk slowly to the warlock’s secluded cottage.
