Kharon Part 74

Kharon Chapter 74


        Simone and Kiarah surface on an icy shore.  “They say no one has returned from the floating island”, says Simone stepping out of the Quarsian stinger.
        “Then we will be the first”, Kiarah says as she walks into the snowy interior.  Simone follows.  As they travel they notice that the frozen mountains begin to take more and more of a defined shape.  They begin to look like buildings in a city.  
        “Is it just me or is the landscape starting to change?”
        “It appears that as we get closer to the interior they are carving the ice out to be living quarters.”
        “Does that mean they expand the more ships they collect?”
        “So it seems.  Which would mean we will very likely run into inhabitants soon so be….”  But before Kiarah can finish her sentence she is attacked by ice soldiers and taken by surprise as they could not be seen until they were on top of her.  Because she is caught off guard she is knocked unconscious.  Simone turns on her fire sword and the mere sight of it scares off the ice soldiers.  Simone runs up to Kiarah to try and rouse her but she remains unconscious.
