Her face was feverishly flushed, her curly hair a mess. Her eyes were wide open, but saw nothing... their usual icy blue flickering to flat onyx...
A'rian took a sharp step back, right into M'kar. The dark-haired rider stepped around him and went to his sister, placing a steady hand on her trembling shoulder. Her flesh burned against his fingertips.
"No... noooo..." she moaned, batting feebly at the icy hand. It touched her, made her writhe in pain in its dreadful grasp...
M'kar recoiled his hand, concern flashing in his eyes. "She's dreaming. She thinks I'm someone else..."
"She thinks," A'rian put in, "that you're the Sect. I can tell. We've got to wake her, or he might take her away again! Keira, Keira!" He shook her, trying to wake her.
It had her... he had her in his clutches... shaking her, shaking her... the touch of icy terror brought a scream rising in her throat...
"Get OFF, you idiot!" M'kar hissed, dragging A'rian off and shoving him against the wall, "You're not helping! The Sect isn't here."
"And how do you know?" A'rian spat back.
M'kar shot him an aggrieved look, "When you've been to his realm, you sense his prescense everywhere. Everywhere! He watches you... he wants you. He wants your body... your soul. I know. I've felt his eyes on me... Keira is different. She let him in... started to let go, lose control. She's dreaming... he's a part of her, forever, and she can make herself feel his watchful eyes again..."
"Then what do you suggest we do?" A'rian asked impatiently.
M'kar did not answer. He closed his eyes for a long time, and to the others, a pale green shimmer seemed to surround him. His eyes slowly reopened, but they were wide and vacant. His muscles went slack, and he seemed to hang an inch off of the ground. The green light pulsed faintly around him.
"M-M'kar?" A'rian asked tentatively. There was no answer. M'kar had passed into Keira's dream world.
