The demon scam
You wince in pain as Merle knocks her elbow into your wounded side, and you drop to your knees, but don't let go of her. You try to catch your breath, but you feel rather faint as you've been pushing yourself with that wound.
Merle keeps trying to get away from you for a moment longer, before she pauses and takes notice of your condition. "Big brother..? What's wrong?"
You don't answer anything as the pain in your side is too great.
Merle frowns at you. "Stupid big brother got into a fight..?" She shakes her head in an all-too grownup manner for her young years. "You need to get to the doctor," she says, and reaches out to touch one of the blue rock formations that are just beside you.
You look up to see what she is doing. "Huh..?"
Instantly, the rock starts to shimmer with the same glow you saw back in the forest.
You gape, totally stunned. What the..!? SHE openened up the portal here by herself?
You're too shocked to allow this to sink in just now, but you will make sure to talk to the village elders about this when you get back...
"Come on," Merle says and pulls you through the portal. You give a deep sigh of relief as the demonic landscape fades away, knowing you will get treated properly back in your village.
THE END
