The villagers took
Kath and
Lhunardawen to
Nilp's house, where they planned to use the same noose that killed the Prophet on them. They pushed
Kath in first, and they were putting the noose around her neck when she transformed into a huge hulk of fanged fur. Coincidentally, the metamorphosis also enlarged her neck, and so she was strangled in the loop of rope.
The villagers cheered. They had their first Werewolf! Emboldened by their success, they turned to
Lhunardawen. They roughly pushed the Dark Elf into her brother's hut.
Farael hung back, watching
Lhuna's execution with tears in his eyes. She should not die, so fair, so desperate. At least she should not die alone, unaided.
With a sudden burst of strength he took the
psychiatrist's couch and used it as a weapon against the assembled villagers. Thus he was able to make a path to her beloved. Dropping the
couch he took her in his arms and sang:
Lhuna lunera, cascabelera
pedile a mi chiquita
por D"s que me quiera
Dile que la quiero, que tenga compasion
Pide que se apiade de mi corazon
But the village was unmoved by their display of passion. They took huge stones and pelted the pair with it. However, despite the chaos of the stoning,
Farael and
Lhunardawen neither saw nor heard of it. Their eyes were on each other, and in those eyes, they found peace . . .
