Chapter 90: Reunited lovers.

Bugak's body stayed in the exact position as she saw him fall. On his side, with several arrows thick like a thumb sticking out of his back. His head partly hidden in between long grass.

It was much heavier than she thought it would be.

In a state of shock and disbelief, she found herself seated next to his lifeless body with his head cradled in her lap.

Tears welled up in her eyes, staining his face as she attempted to wipe away the blood with her trembling fingers.

Anna's sobs grew louder, her shoulders shaking under the heavy weight of grief, until she finally let out a single howl, clutching him tighter as if hoping to bring him back to life.

The amount of her tears surprised her, but Tameka's doing was even more startling.

She came closer with a bothered expression, holding a piece of that cloak across her mouth. Anna watched as she moved nearer, dipping her finger into the man's open throat and smearing it onto the map, her face contorted with disgust.

With closed eyes, the priestess softly uttered a lengthy incantation, her voice resonating through the air. To Anna's astonishment, the map started to emit a radiant glow and absorbed the liquid, leaving no trace behind.

Blessed map of devoted mistress

*It's done. His location will be marked tonight, as soon as the sun disappears under the horizon. Cheer up, you will see him soon enough.* the priestess said again directly through her thoughts, leaving the map behind as she left the battlefield with rushed steps.

Anger shook with Anna more than her cry. How dare she touch him like this? She felt humiliated for not trying to stop her from degrading his corpse.

Who the fuck does that? Anna couldn't shake off the weird feeling settling in her heart.

But – She was right. She will be able to see his location this evening. And then, she can meet him again. She can kiss him and apologize for being late today. She can tell him how much she loves him.

With regret written all over her face, she carefully set his heavy head on the grass, right above his neck. One last touch, one last kiss carefully planted on his forehead before she forced herself to return back to the willow.

*Can I watch you?* Priestess asked curiously as she watched how Anna pulled the soaked rods out of the shallows and sat down with them in the shade of the willow tree, in desperate effort to occupy her mind. 

Anna agreed and tried to explain each step. Finally, she attached a string made of grass and several hooks made of sticks around the huge basket.

[You unlocked ENCHANTED WATTLE CARRIER with passive ability DRY OUT +100 inventory, +2%/min HP regeneration]

Tameka looked at the output with interest, then took it from her hands and set it aside. She closed her eyes, raised her hands over the carrier, opened her lips, and in a low, ringing voice said some new formula, much longer than the one she had used over the map, and the wicker brightened as if bleached by the sun.

"This is amazing!" Anna shouted in excitement and held the product in her arms to examine it properly.

*It's easy. It's like breathing to me since I do have a great amount of mana to work with.* Said the priestess.

*You are so pure. I have never seen this much light in a human being. I'm glad you found your way to me. I'll follow you from now on. And I'll be loyal to you.* she said again, walking closer to her. Touched by this sudden show of kindness, Anna thanked her again, unsure of what more she should say.

*You should go to take care of the other body. You are here for a long time, I'll watch over this one, so you can get uninterrupted rest.* Tameka offered.

"Thank you. I'll be back before the sun goes down. I'll get going now," She thanked her and curled up on the lynx fur.

They were here together just yesterday. It was strange how things could end so fast. Will he even recognize her, if they find each other? Will he still want her? Anna logged out, determined that she will try to enjoy the game regardless of his absence.
