In the Grip of the Red Hand
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 90009

"I've heard of the Red Hand," said Fred. "My father faced them once in battle, together with the
Archmage Estefania Lestrange. He thought he'd slain them all and the rest were long dead. It
would seem he was wrong. Perhaps the legends were true that their elders could transcend
death itself."
Before anyone could respond, three men in crimson robes opened the iron door that blocked off the cave where the five captives hung in chains, dragging in a naked woman who was still asleep. A shiver crawled up Fred's spine and he found he could not move a muscle while the three were in the room. He could barely even breathe. In the flickering light of the torches all he could see of the three mages were their hands. One had the elegant hands of a noblewoman, with long fingers. And one had skin of a silvery hue. The new prisoner began to stir. "Let's hope this is the last time we'll all have to introduce ourselves," said Sir Josh. "I think so," said Exotica. "Three men and three women... that sounds about right for some kind of ritual." She shuddered. The new prisoner's eyes opened.
