[Dragon Age] Under Six Feet

? Logan sometimes feels that if the Creator really exists, then he must be a guy who likes to play bad jokes with his people.

Marek, who was supposed to live a hundred years, was buried at the bottom of the sea, but he himself survived bearing the name of a traitor.The villain and the despicable will always struggle to survive, just like what Kellyanne said, fulfilling their destiny and then falling, this is the way a hero dies.

So she survived, and when Logan sent Kellyanne to the ring mage, she was unconscious, but still breathing.

That night, sitting in the cleaned palace room, Logan stared at the burning fireplace with no intention of resting at all.He was tired, almost exhausted, after all, he was no longer a teenager, Logan thought to himself mockingly.After fighting fiercely for a whole day, killing the Darkborn of Nowhere, he had never felt so heavy in his body.However, his own consciousness ran counter to his body. After the war ended, Logan felt extraordinarily awake.

So he stood up, walked out of the room, and prepared to find a rooftop where there were no corpses and no smell of blood to stay for a while.

However, just as he stepped out of the door, he saw a soldier running over with a nervous face.Logan grabbed him: "What happened?"

The panicked soldier seemed to realize Logan's existence only now. He braked suddenly and said out of breath, "Luo...Master Logan!"

"I'm no longer your 'adult'." He tilted his head, "Is there any remaining Darkborn in the palace?"

"No, no, no," the soldier replied tremblingly with a frightened look on his face, "it's a ghost, a female ghost!"

female ghost?What is it all about? Logan frowned. The entire Dunrym had seen the darkin's attack. Even if it was a female ghost, could it be more terrifying than the dragon's breath of the great demon?

"What's the situation?"

"Uh……"

Perhaps it was Logan's calm posture that affected him, the soldier finally took a breath and recovered a bit of normal expression: "I, I just saw a white-haired woman in a wedding dress looking at her little girl. Go in the direction of the church!"

Woman with white hair in wedding dress.

Almost as soon as the soldier's voice fell, Logan realized the identity of the "female ghost".

"A elf?" he asked quietly.

The soldier thought about it for a while, and then swallowed hard: "Big, maybe? I didn't notice her ears, but they seem to be the same size."

Kellyanne is waking up now?

Maybe it's a dead ghost, Logan thought viciously.He let go of the soldier's arm: "Don't make a fuss, your duty is to protect the king and queen, what's the point of not being able to hold a sword steadily?"

"Yeah, I'm sorry Mr. Logan...uh."

Logan sighed helplessly.

"The gray guard should have woken up." He wiped his forehead, "Stand guard, I'll go and have a look."

Even if she woke up, in the middle of the night, why would she be so nervous?Logan pushed open the heavy door of the chapel, and when the wooden shaft turned, the "creaking" sound shook like a ghost in the palace that had been brutally cleaned. The church, which was brightly lit with candles in the past, had no time to clean it carefully at this time, and most of the rows of candlesticks If they are not familiar with the environment of the palace, Logan may even think that he has stepped into a nether world.

Callian stood under the statue of Androst.

Hui Wei, who fought bloody battles during the day, now changed into a white wedding dress.She wore a simple wreath on her head, and her long hair of the same color as the wedding dress spread to her shoulders. When she heard the door open, she raised her head.

As she turned around, under the dim light of the church, Logan saw mottled red marks on her chest and skirt, like blood that could not be washed off, especially stained on the white cloth. conspicuous.

Or, that's blood that can't be washed off.

The white hair hanging by the ear covered most of the cheek that looked sick due to excessive blood loss.Kellyanne was holding a candle, and when her eyes met his, she showed a look of surprise: "Logan?"

Before Logan could respond, Kellyanne continued to ask, "Why are you here?"

"I should ask you this question." Logan stepped forward and walked behind Kellyanne. "The soldiers on guard thought you were a female ghost and were about to report to the guard."

In exchange for this, Kellyanne glanced in surprise: "Female ghost?"

"Why," Logan twitched the corners of his mouth sarcastically, "do you think your dress is not good enough?"

This is also why the soldiers recognized her as a female ghost. Anyone who saw such an image in the room where the corpse had just been removed would find it difficult to connect her with the "creature".

It was rare for her to speak back.Kellyanne just smiled, then lowered her head, and lit the candlestick next to the idol: "I didn't expect to be seen."

Then the church fell silent.

Logan watched silently as she relighted the extinguished candlesticks one by one. Unlike the usual quick and sharp killers, Kellyanne, who was wearing a wedding dress while holding a candle, moved slowly and gently. Give her long hair and face a divine soft glow.As if she was really a pure bride, as if she was standing inside the church just waiting for the arrival of her sweetheart.

"Standing barefoot on the church," Logan said until she lit all the candles, before Logan broke the silence after the death sack, "to mourn your dead fiancé? It's really too late."

Kellyanne put down the candle in her hand, turned her head, and looked directly into Logan's eyes.

This is indeed a beautiful bride.Logan never denied what he had seen. Even though the wedding dress was still stained with blood, even though the corolla was torn and her feet were bare, Kellyanne Tubbys's appearance never wavered.

This appearance has brought her disasters and conveniences, but now, the pain and killing are temporarily out, and the interests and conspiracy are still at rest. Perhaps only at such moments can her beauty be presented in a harmless way in his eyes. in front of you.

In his eyes, it was a bit of a waste, to be honest.He is no longer a young man full of enthusiasm and energy with nowhere to vent.

"Death is an escape, that's exactly what I said."

what?

Kellyanne's endless words made Logan unable to react for a while.She walked in front of him, raised her right hand, and pulled the hair behind her ear that blocked her view.In the candlelight, the wedding ring on her ring finger reflected the light of cheap metal.

wedding ring.

Logan suddenly remembered that on the eve of her arrival in Dunrham, when she talked to him about the past, Kellyanne avoided her own questions.

At this time, she took up the words that she didn't answer that day.

"Killing the earl's son...it's the same for me." She read in a voice that was almost a whisper, "I always thought that killing him was for justice, for revenge and to eliminate violence, just like Alistair Thinking about killing you. I always thought it was unnecessary, but didn't that scum? His death doesn't mean the colony girls won't be insulted again. I can kill a son of Lord Dunrym , can I kill all the nobles in the world?"

"So you are thinking about the glory of the clan now?" Logan sneered, completely ignoring Kellyanne's introspection.

"Do not."

She shook her head.

"I just realized that I kept wearing my wedding ring and my wedding dress because I knew why I took up arms and never dared to admit it."

As the pale bride spoke, she slowly took off the ring on her right hand. She stared at the wedding ring, and there was a rare gentleness in her light green eyes.

"At that time, I killed him, not out of conscience, not out of justice, just out of my own selfish desire. He angered me, so I raised the dagger towards his head, it's that simple. Even if the earl's son hadn't I have appeared before, and I will not be a beautiful bride and a submissive wife." She lifted her skirt and continued, "This outfit is just a fantasy of mine, there is always such a chance..."

Kellyanne held the hem of the skirt, carefully bent down, and placed it under the statue of Androst.Looking at the ring resting firmly on the ground, she raised the corners of her mouth, her smile contained both melancholy and sarcasm.

"There is always a chance that I will pick up the blade that belongs to me."

A ghost that appeared in the palace.

"On the day I became the Gray Guard, I wore this wedding dress and put on the ring. Now, I should wear the wedding dress and take it off."

Logan quietly looked at the elegant Kellyanne, who said it wasn't?

"Just let it be all over."

The girl who was ready to marry had already been buried by her own hands when she grasped the weapon for the first time, and what appeared in the palace now, after all the dust had settled, wasn't a ghost, so what was it?

She raised her head again, and the holy bride just disappeared like Logan's hallucination, and the usual indifference and sarcasm still shone in her light-colored pupils. I have hidden a jug of good wine, which is just suitable for celebrating today's victory, do you want to come?"

Logan raised his eyebrows indifferently.Sleepless nights, always find something to pass the time.

The wedding ring was left under the statue, and Kellyanne didn't even look back as she stepped out of the church.

What were he and Marek doing the night they defeated the Ole people 30 years ago?He thought about it for a long time, and what he finally remembered was that when it was close to dawn, he couldn't sleep and found the king sitting under the night sky.

He sat across from Marek as he sat across from Kellyanne now.As for whether there was wine or not, Logan couldn't remember exactly what they said.

Kellyanne, who had changed back to her usual clothes, handed her the wine glass, and then asked about Marek again as if chatting casually.

This time, Logan answered her.

He told her the story of fighting side by side with Marek back then, and in return, she told him the adventures of this year, without sharp ridicule or sharp attack, it was a peaceful conversation, with the companion's Identity, as peer identity.

However, Kellyanne, who had just woken up, was finally exhausted. After a short silence, Logan found that the elf sitting opposite had fallen asleep.

Logan stood up and walked in front of Kellyanne. He bent down, stretched out his hand, and accidentally rubbed his callused palm against her cheek. The soft and smooth touch stunned Logan for a moment.

Perhaps it was because the image of the bride in the church hadn't faded from Logan's mind, he unexpectedly found that the sleeping Kellyanne was extraordinarily peaceful, her head was tilted to one side, and her eyes were always sharp like knives. He closed it lightly, as if the person who stepped on him and cut off the head of the great demon with his own hands was not the killer in front of him.

It is indeed a pretty face.

His hands stayed on the woman's neck and shoulders for a long time.

If Marek knew he was hanging out late at night in a young girl's room, just talking, the guy would probably laugh at himself about it for a year.

Logan twitched the corners of his mouth, but the smile disappeared before it could be produced.He patted Kelly on the shoulder: "Grey Guard? It's time for you to rest."

Kellyanne opened her eyes as if frightened, and when her eyes touched Logan's existence, she was momentarily dazed.But soon she realized the situation. Logan thought she would laugh at herself, but she just breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, what happened today... is really too much. Thank you, Logan."

no need thank me?Thank you for trying to kill you again and again, or thank me for surviving the initiation ceremony?Logan didn't take her words to heart, he knew that the female elf who returned to normal might not be so kind and polite.

So Logan nodded, and left her room.

It was still dark, and he should also go to rest.After all, he is no longer young, and the person who can laugh at himself with clumsy and childish topics has already been separated from Yin and Yang, and will sleep forever. ?
