“Stop! Please!” she coughed as he squeezed the breath out of her. “I need your help! You need my help if *cough* you want to get your maze back from that monster!”
Rexar’s grin faded and he eased his weight off of the human. Monster? What sort of monster could she mean? An ogre? He could definitely handle an ogre. He spoke out to her in the language of the giants with a snarl. “What monster? What do you mean?” The dark timbre of his voice rumbled through the thin air.
The woman showed immediate relief, but still seemed terrified. “A great, black ogre! An ogre magus!”
He was perplexed. An ogre magus? What in the hells was an ogre magus? Rexar had never seen a black ogre before. The only ogres he had ever known were the huge, stupid brutes that frequented the mountains around here. These ogres ranged in colors like humans, but never a darker color than the common dull jaundice-yellow.
Rexar squeezed her a little more. “There are no black ogres, human dog! If you try to trick me, I’ll suck the marrow from your bones!”
She groaned in pain under the pressure. “No trick! I swear! *cough* This ogre magus came from west of here!”
What if she was telling the truth? An ogre that could perform magic? That could explain the flash of light last night. How else could ogres have taken him out so quickly and easily? Rexar had never battled any magi before. Either way, if this human was lying, she wasn’t much of a threat now. He could kill her now as easily as a child.
“If you are lying, I’ll kill you,” Rexar growled, and raised his hoof off of the woman. She immediately gasped for air and turned to lay on her side, hugging her ribs.
