ghost roads
So the bad watcher is gone. Willow took care of him and I guess at the last minute he knew what he had done. He opened a portal that was meant for all of us and to close it he jumped into it. I'm not going to say that I am not glad. He killed Ariel and Oz's daughter. I feel bad for Faith though.
After getting drunk with Giles and Ethan I came back home and laid down in bed. I had the strangest dream that seemed like it was real some how. I don't know how it could've been though.
I was standing in a public square. My wrists bound to a wooden post. I struggled to be free of the restraints. I looked up and saw what I knew was some sort of public official.
"You Ini-herit are charged with defiling a holy priestess. You planted your inferior seed in her, making her into a common whore. You have been judged. Three hundred lashes you will recieve. After that you will witness the death of your whore."
I had to get out of this. I had to save Zalika before it was too late.
One of the Pharoh's guards, whom I had trained once approched me. He ripped the top half of my tunic off of my shoulders and back, exposing my flesh.
I heard the metal beads clank against one another as the guard uncoiled the whip.
They brought my beloved into the square, she was to witness my torture.
I heard the whip snap. It came down upon my back. It felt like liquid fire with each crack of the whip. I heard Zalika screaming curses at the guard. I looked up at her, knowing that when we died we would meet in the underworld like she always told me of. We were twin souls, destined to be together.
They did not give me a piece of wood or a leather thong to bite down on. I still did not cry out. I had lost track of the times I felt the whip come down on my back. I felt the blood running through the lower part of my tunic and down my legs. I gritted my teeth and my cheeks to keep from making any sound. I tasted blood in my mouth.
I looked again at Zalika. She was softly crying. Even though I was in so much pain my chest swelled up with pride at the silent strength in her. Our eyes met. I love you, my own.
I heard the guard hand his whip to another guardsmen. He came up to me and started to untie me. My knees buckled under me. I could not stand. Another guard came to help the other. One on each side of me.
I watched as other guards took Zalika. Where were they taking us? I wondered.
Up they carried me. I knew where they were taking us. To her temple.
There were two other priestesses in the temple. In the center of her temple were logs and sticks set in a pyre. I watched as they tied Zalika in the center. Her face expressionless now. She looked at me, in the eyes. I knew without her words that she was giving me her love. We will be together again soon. I told her.
I watched as the two priestesses lit the fire on her. I struggled with every bit of strength I had left in my body. I felt like something was wrong. I screamed out in agony for the first time as the flames licked her legs.
That's when I woke up. I have no idea what that meant but I had never had a dream like that before. It was so real. I felt like I was actually this Ini-herit person.
