Silmaria was still amply curvaceous and soft in all the most delicious of places, but now her flat belly was taut with gently defined, feminine muscle, and her smooth legs were solid and strong, well-mu scled in her shapely thighs. Her ass was sculpted and round. Two solid, tantalizing globes of fit, firm, grab-able flesh.

And he realized then that this was as much for her as it was for him, if not more. \par \'93Go ahead,\'94 he acquiesced. \par Silmaria gave him a soft smile of thanks, and continued. \par The girl handled her Master\rquote s body carefully, soaping up his sore foot with careful hands, getting it thoroughly sudsy and clean before beginning to massage his foot with surprisingly strong, small fingers. She worked her fingertips and thumbs, even her palms into his foot, the arch and heel, the top. Even his toes she paid special care to, thoroughly massaging him with that same focused, calm, if somewhat determined look on her face. Then she rinsed the soap from his foot, and moved her soapy hands up to his taut, hard calves. Her fingers worked at the thick bundle of muscles there in a slow, purposeful way, and then up to his knee, and the powerful swell of his thighs before switching to his other leg and repeating the process all over again. \par Silmaria continued her ministrations to the rest of Rael\rquote s body. All the while, she maintained the same purposeful pace, the same reverent touch. There was a peace in her eyes, during those moments, a peace that spoke of a depth of love and devotion and a deep seeded need to serve and provide for his needs. Her care left Rael humbled, and his chest tight with warmth even as his body relaxed under her ministrations. \par It was a strange experience, but wonderful. Rael had never allowed someone to so devotedly working at his body to ease his aches and pains and make him truly relaxed. Indeed, he was deeply, utterly relaxed just then; the aches and pains of the long road seemed to disappear under Silmaria\rquote s skilled fingers. \par He wasn\rquote t sure he would have enjoyed it in any other circumstances, and likely would have felt quite strange and uncomfortable. Silmaria\rquote s dutiful care, however, felt right. \par The last of the soap was rinsed away from his body. Rael stood slowly, and stretched his back and legs with renewed vigor and health, feeling like a new man entirely. \par Silmaria knelt beside the brass tub. She stared up at her Master as the water rolled off him in rivulets, little streams of the glistening water running along the many grooves of his battle-toned muscle and scared flesh. \par Wordless and with the same careful, tender purpose, Silmaria leaned forward and took Rael\rquote s still dripping cock between her lips. \par Rael let out a low groan of pleasure. Silmaria stared up at him, her big, bright green feline eyes never leaving his own strange silvers as she drew the full length of her Lord\rquote s dick into the warm, softly suckling confines of her mouth. Immediately Rael\rquote s cock began to grow, rapidly expanding and filling with blood and arousal. Silmaria kept her lips firmly nestling against the base of Rael\rquote s cock, letting it fill her mouth as her tongue played along the length of that swelling flesh. Even when his generous cock lengthened to slide down her throat, spreading her supple, sli ppery muscles there around the meaty girth, Silmaria held herself in place, swallowing him down with hungry little swallows. \par Not until his cock was fully erect and throbbing, fat and jerking deep down her throat and Silmaria was softly gagging on his flesh , her muscles contracting and squeezing, did the Gnari at last pull back. She let his cock pop wetly from her mouth, and she gasped and softly choked with a thick rope of saliva dangling from full, trembling lips to drip down her neck and ample chest. As she gathered her composure, Silmaria stared up at Rael, her eyes glossed over with lust and shining with utter devotion. \par Rael plunged his strong hands into the still slightly damp darkness of her lustrous curls. His hands found her delicately made furred ears atop her head, running them between his thumbs and forefingers. Silmaria shivered, that touch sending a primal surge of pleasure racing through her body, twisting along the pathways of her nerve endings and hopscotching down the length of her spine. She pressed her face to Rael\rquote s swollen, wet cock, nuzzling i t, rubbing it against her cheeks and lips as she inhaled the scent that was so intrinsically and unmistakably }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \i\f0\fs24\insrsid2760882 him}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f0\fs24\insrsid2760882 . \par \'93Master,\'94 Silmaria breathed just to hear the word on her lips, to feel it roll meaningfully off her tongue, the word and the tone and the we ight of its meaning making the both of them ache for what she offered to him with that single, deceptively simple word. \par Control. Power. Her devotion, undying. Unguarded, unrestrained access to all that she was. She laid herself bare, right there at his feet, offering all that she was. \par His. \par Rael stared down into those upturned eyes, and did the only thing he possibly could. \par He took. \par There was all of her, at his fingertips. Rael guided her head back to the rigid shaft of his cock and she went oh-so willingly. The girl ran her talented, agile tongue along the pulsing underside of her Master\rquote s heavy flesh. Silmaria traced the distended veins throbbing along the solid sides. Felt the beat of his strong heart and the coursing of passion burning in his blood. \par When Silmaria took Rael back into her mouth he gripped her head and began to thrust his hips in deep, long thrusts, driving his bulging dick down the sweet surrendering Gnari\rquote s supple throat. Silmaria moaned deeply, her head swimming with satisfaction as her Master took what he pleased from her. His cock throbbed with life as it thrust down her gripping throat, and she slurped, her tongue working over his flesh. He buried himself down her throat until her lips kissed the root of his meat, and she gave a wet, strangled gag. And again. And aga in. \par Saliva glistened in sticky strands from Silmaria\rquote s puffy lips, shining threads of passion that dripped down onto her heaving tits. Silmaria was utterly filled with him, all her senses consumed and overrun with Rael. The smell of him. The strong, fleshy taste of him, peppered with the snatches of his sweet, syrupy precum. The feel of his powerful guiding hands in her hair and his engorged cock stuffing her hungry little mouth. The sound of his growl; the rumbling of it made her cunt clench violently. And his eyes, staring down into hers. \par His eyes, as intense and focused and vivid as ever they\rquote d been, and understanding more and more just how deeply he owned her. \par Rael grew rougher, his thrusts harder. Silmaria sucked and slurped and gagged, choking on her Master\rquote s cock until tears glazed over her eyes, and still she stared up at him. She stared at him as he choked her with his cock. She stared too as his forceful claiming of her mouth and throat made her tears spill over. And she stared into his eyes even still, as she reached between her splayed thighs and shoved three fingers into her cunt, and desperately thrust and screwed her fingers deep into her clenching pussy as she violently exploded, cumming hard as she screamed around Rael\rquote s impressive cock. \par Rael jerked hi s dick from her throat, and Silmaria gasped in a huge lungful of breath and collapsed onto the floor, trembling and twitching. Rael stared down at her, sprawled on the floor, her knees bent with her hand still trapped between her strong thighs, sticky and wet. Her breasts bounced with her gasps, coral pink nipples vivid against the creamy white of the velvet pelt along her belly and the generous round mounds of her tits. Her hair, clean and glossy and silken was disheveled and hung forward to hide her face. \par The Nobleman gave a soft growl, his desire ignited into a raging inferno. He easily gathered the smallish woman into his heavily muscled, powerful arms and carried her to the bed, where he placed her on her belly. \par Silmaria began to stir, but before she could even fully rise, Rael gripped the round, supple swell of her ass and pulled it up into the air. Silmaria gasped lightly, her eyes going wide, and then Rael\rquote s powerful hands parted her solid buttocks and the hot, wet press of his tongue dragged firmly along the valley between her cheeks, from the drooling cleft of her slippery pink slit up along her crack and over the tig ht, quivering pucker of her asshole. Rael\rquote s talented tongue worked along her anus, circling the fluttering ring of pink muscle, swirling along her delicate rosebud in a deliciously wicked erotic dance. \par \'93Oh fuck, oh Master, yes,\'94 Silmaria moaned, her breath coming out in a frantic pant. She pressed her ass back, wiggling, eager for his attentions in whatever form they took. Rael licke d at her pert, clenching asshole, prodding it briefly with the tip of his tongue before he shifted his attention back down to her pussy. \par His hands, powerful and rough, kneaded and squeezed the Gnari\rquote s lush ass as Rael plunged his tongue into the quivering depths of his love\rquote s fragrant pussy. He lapped and sucked, his mouth filling with the distinct flavor of her. The silky sweet stickiness of her arousal was a delicate treat that quickened his lust all the more. Silmaria moaned and whimpered, and she writhed beneath him as he feasted between her legs. \par Once Rael found the hard, tight little swell of Silmaria\rquote s clit, it took but moments before the Gnari came again, screaming. Her back arched as she pushed back into his hands and torturously talented mouth once more. Her flanks trembled and her muscles tensed deliciously as ecstasy raced through every taut fiber of her being. Before her first orgasm fully died down Rael cruelly, and wonderfully, began to lightly worry and nibble and nip at her clit with his sharp, oh- so lovely teeth, making her cum again, violently now, a great burning explosion of pleasure-pain slamming her in the gut and radiating through her in great, racing waves. \par Silmaria shrieked. And screamed. Then she sobbed, tears of overwhelming pleasure and unexplainable release running down her cheeks as firecrackers went ballistic behind her eyes. Her pussy contracted, desperately gripping at nothing, and great gushes of sticky wet pussy juice spilled from her in shining rivulets down her wiggling legs. \par Rael watched, felt, and tasted every last moment, and he reveled. Reveled in her pleasure and her pain. Reveled in her release, her spiral into that deeply gratifying, desperately needed pleasure. He basked in her surrender, and fed on the primal, overwh elming sexuality that was His Silmaria. \par \'93M-more\'85please,\'94 she whimpered when at last she could breathe again. Her voice was raw, full of tears. Twitchy with overstimulated nerves and gut-wrenching lust. \par \'93Tell me what you need,\'94 Rael rumbled behind her as he trailed a solitary, powerful fingertip slowly up the drooling length of her heated slit. \par He knew.

Oh, fuck yes. \par Pressed inside her, swirling in her clutching wetness, caressing inside. That was good. But it didn\rquote t hurt. It wasn\rquote t scratching that part of her itch, wasn\rquote t sating that need. Almost, she wondered if he was denying her this time. \par Then he surprised her. Silmaria let out a soft gasp, her eyes fluttering when she felt the press of his thick finger retreat from her cunt to move to her exposed, vulnerable l ittle pucker of an asshole. She bit her lip, stifling a moan as he circled her anus for a few tantalizing moments. When the slow, patient, steady pressure of his finger pressed to her rosebud, she moaned out loud and pushed her ass back, welcoming. \par \'93Tell me why you want me to hurt you,\'94 Rael spoke as he slid his finger into the warm embrace of Silmaria\rquote s ass. The Gnari girl moaned, quavering. His strong finger opened her asshole slowly but firmly open, spreading her sphinct er, the tender muscles parting and yielding for him. Her ass was tight and gripping. Yet, no stranger to this type of invasion, she took her Master\rquote s finger with relative little discomfort. \par But his question was throwing her off.

His finger felt delicious up her ass, but oh, she needed so much more than that! \par \'93Tell me,\'94 Rael insisted. Confident now that she could handle some force her, he thrust a second finger up her ass, much less patiently this time, ramming it up her clutching bowels alongside the first and stretching the ring of her asshole wider. \par \'93I\'85I\'85\'94 \par Conflict and confusion. And, startlingly, embarrassment welled inside Silmaria. They settled, heavy weight in her clenching belly. What he asked was simple\'85 but so very hard.

I, um\'85 went elsewhere for a minute there.\'94 \par \'93Are you alright?\'94 He asked softly, and his sword-calloused hands ran slowly along her graceful flanks. \par \'93Yes,\'94 Silmaria sighed, and burrowed deeper into his comforting, safe arms. She nestled her face to his solid chest as she rested her fingertips along his scars. \'93 It happens, sometimes. I get so overwhelmed and lost in the moment and the pleasure that I just\'85 can\rquote t quite process it all for awhile. I go floating off elsewhere, not really quite connected to myself. But it\rquote s okay. Elsewhere is a nice place to go. Or visit, anyway.\'94 \par Rael looked down into her eyes. He did not seem particularly convinced. Silmaria smiled a bit more firmly, warmth shining in her emerald green eyes. She reached a hand up to tenderly cup her man\rquote s cheek. \par \'93I am wonderful, Master. I feel spent in every known way, but I am wonderful still. That\'85 that was something else.\'94 \par Relief washed over Rael\rquote s face, and he allowed himself a smile at last. \'93Something else is certainly an appropriate way of putting it,\'94 he nodded, and squeezed her firmly in his strong embrace. \'93You scared me for a minute there. Just don \rquote t float off so far into the distance where I can\rquote t pull you back.\'94 \par \'93Mmm,\'94 Silmaria acknowledged softly. She shut her eyes, breathed deeply of the scent of his sweat and his skin and their sex., and relaxed deeply. \'93I won\rquote t, Master. Promise. I\rquote m okay, really I am. It\rquote s a good thing, for me to have that kind of release. I feel so wonderfully drained and soothed and empty, now. Light.\'94 \par She could tell he didn\rquote t understand. Oh, he got her meaning, but he didn\rquote t }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \i\f0\fs24\insrsid2760882 understand}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f0\fs24\insrsid2760882 , not truly. It wasn\rquote t something she could properly explain, and it wasn\rquote t something he could properly grasp without going through it himself. And that was fine; it was enough, for her, knowing he cared, and he tried. \par More than enough. \par Silmaria gave a soft, delicate yawn. \'93It\rquote s a good thing we\rquote re going to be resting here for another day or two. I don\rquote t think I\rquote ll be walking quite right for awhile,\'94 she mumbled to herself. \par Rael gave a lighthearted chuckle, one that Silmaria felt as much as heard as he enfolded her deep into the safety and comfort of his arms. \par \'93Absolutely worth it, by the way\'94 she added, and fell into a burst of giggles into his chest. \par }\pard \ltrpar\s15\ql \li0\ri0\sl480\slmult1\widctlpar\wrapdefault\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0\pararsid2760882 {\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f0\fs24\insrsid2760882 \par *** \par \par \tab As it turned out, the days of their stay were not as few as they would have liked. \par }\pard \ltrpar\s15\ql \fi720\li0\ri0\sl480\slmult1\widctlpar\wrapdefault\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0\pararsid2760882 {\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f0\fs24\insrsid2760882 Dusk settled outsid e the inn as it had every evening for the past week, vibrant and colorful, showing off every shade of red the mind could picture and more, as if the skies over the land borrowed inspiration from the crimson soil and rock and decided to do The Reach one be tter. It was an absurdly gorgeous sight, one Silmaria had thoroughly enjoyed near every day of their journey through the rocky region and their subsequent stay at the Brotherhood\rquote s Inn.

As their stay over the past week had gone on, Rael had become increasingly wary and uncomfortable. Though h e tried to hide it from her, Silmaria was getting more adept at reading his moods, and she sensed it even when the Knight gave his best effort at acting as if nothing was bothering him. His unease stemmed mostly from the repeated delays and proble ms that seemed to be arising regarding the supplies Rael was trying to procure before they went on their way. \par First was the new sets of clothes; Brother Ricard had claimed they simply did not have any clothing big enough to fit Rael\rquote s rangy and strongly built proportions. That has seemed fairly reasonable; Rael was an uncommonly large man, a fter all. A day had become two, then three. Five days into their stay and well after Rael had resigned to continue on with their worn out and red stained clothes, the Nobleman\rquote s clothing was at last finished. \par But not before Rael\rquote s request for travel rations hit a snag. The Brothers kept a regularly restocked supply of fresh food, you see, nothing properly cured or preserved to last over a long journey. \par This was, of course, ludicrous\'85 how could anyone with a respectable larder and supply of goods not carry a large stock of cured and dried foodstuffs to last in case of lean times? And besides, why wouldn\rquote t an inn sto ck proper travel rations when their entire purpose was to serve travelers in the first place? \par By that evening, Rael\rquote s agitation was pa lpable. His unease made Silmaria nervous, and she was liking these delays less and less. She picked up their bowls of turnip soup with venison broth. Rael had hardly eaten half his bowl, a clear sign of his preoccupation as the man could eat like none she \rquote d ever known when he put his mind and appetite to it. \par The Gnari girl carried their bowls up to the counter. She placed her hand in his, which he lightly squeezed to acknowledge her, but his attention remained otherwise on the uncomfortable looking Brother Ricard standing behind the bar, wiping his hands nervously on his apron. \par \'93I say again, Ricard, I appreciate the sentiment, but I can do without the map. I asked for one out of an effort to ease our way a bit, but it\rquote s not a vital thing. I\rquote d as soon be away and continue our journey than wait any longer for it. \'94 \par \'93Begging pardon, Rael, but I feel I should insist. I know we\rquote ve inconvenienced you with this waiting about for your supplies and the least I can do is be sure that you leave here with every bit of resources that you\rquote ve asked for.\'94 \par The set of Rael\rquote s jaw told Silmaria that they\rquote d chased this particular topic around a few times already. He heaved a sigh and tried again, his words polite but tight. \'93Ricard. It\rquote s fine. You mean well, but we need to be on our way . The inconvenience of going without a map is less important than the inconvenience of lost time. Time I cannot make up. We can\rquote t tarry any longer.\'94 \par Ricard looked visibly upset at this point, and there was a sheen of sweat on his forehead. \'93You\rquote re certain I can\rquote t convince you to wait? Brother Ekar assures me he has just such a map that you are needing, he simply has to find it. The libraries are usually not in this sort of disarray, but he has been cataloguing some of our oldest tomes recently, and it is an uncommon jumble just now. Surely you can wait another day? Two at the most, my good man. The map will be ready by then, surely!\'94 \par There was a strange desperation in the man\rquote s voice that he could not entirely hide. \par \'93Thank you, Ricard, but no,\'94 Rael said firmly. \'93We leave at daybreak.\'94 \par Ricard swallowed hard, and a light went out of his eyes. His face crumpled into something very like morose resignation. \'93Very well, sir. Very well.\'94 \par Silmaria\rquote s brow furrowed as she watched Ricard\rquote s face take on an almost sallow tint. She said nothing, but the hairs on the back of her neck raised in an unclear sort of nervousness. \par For his part, Rael\rquote s face remained sternly somber, resolved. \'93Good day, Brother.\'94 \par Stern of feature and mind made up or no, Rael still had his sense of fairness and honor. He paid the Brother good coin for their meal before the pair returned to their room. \par The last of the sun\rquote s rays peeked over the hills on the horizon by the time they headed upstairs, narrow flickers of golden light piercing the darkened sky like the lash of a whip. Little fla shes of light reflecting off a razors edge, cutting across the heavens. \par Then even that was gone, and only darkness remained. \par \'93He was strange,\'94 Silmaria said as she plopped down onto their bed, propping herself up on her elbows and staring at the dusky ceiling while Rael lit the small candle in the wall sconce just beside the window. \par \'93Stranger than usual,\'94 she clarified. \par \'93He was,\'94 Rael agreed in short tones. He stared out the window into the darkness of the empty night. Silmaria knew from his tone and his posture that he was lost in thought. \par \'93He was unsettled, that much was clear. Frightened, maybe,\'94 the Nobleman voiced at last. \par \'93He seemed awful reluctant for us to leave,\'94 Silmaria commented. \par \'93Yes,\'94 Rael agreed, his jaw setting hard. He leaned against the windowsill, and stared pensively into the distance. \par Silmaria watched him, for a time, and seeing him stare into the blackness outside their window, the Gnari\rquote s earlier unease began to rise, settling into a hollow ache in the center of her breast. Her tail twitched, swishing with anxious energy , and her ears flicked forward to lay flat along the top of her head. \par By the moment her dread became a tangible, certain thing. \par She sat up and went to him on quiet feet. She twined her arms around the Knight\rquote s thick arm, pulling firmly at it, until he turned his gaze to her, staring down into her upturned eyes. \par \'93Master\'85 Master, we need to leave,\'94 she said, struggling to fight down her rising panic and keep her voice steady. \par Rael stared at her for a moment, his brows raised with surprise. \'93Now?\'94 \par \'93Yes,\'94 Silmaria nodded urgently. \'93Tonight. Right now.\'94 \par Rael motioned toward the open window with his free hand. \'93It\rquote s a moonless night, and not even the starlight is getting through. It\rquote s black as the void out there.\'94 \par \'93I know,\'94 Silmaria said, swallowing softly. She forced down her anxiety and frustration. She knew it sounded foolish, and she couldn\rquote t even articulate why, but she knew that Rael saw it, too. She just had to get him to acknowledge it. \par \'93Something is wrong here, Master,\'94 she tried again, staring up at him with wide feline eyes. \'93Ricard has done everything he can to delay our leaving, don\rquote t you think? You said it yourself. All his reasons, all his excuses for why we couldn \rquote t get this, or get that, it all felt\'85 wrong. None of it made sense. And he wanted too desperately for us to stay. Why would he care so much? It\rquote s not for our coin or patronage. And we certainly aren\rquote t the only trave lers to pass through the Brothers\rquote door! \par \'93So why? And why did he look like we\rquote d just handed him a death sentence when we refused to stay another few days? It\rquote s not right, Master. None of it is right.\'94 \par Rael listened to the distressed Gnari quietly, his intense eyes staring down into hers while he contemplated her words. At last, he turned to face her fully, and placed his roughened hands on her graceful shoulders. \'93 What do you suggest is going on, then?\'94 \par Silmaria shifted her weight from one foot to the other, her face screwing up with uncertain frustration. She shook her head quickly, sending black curls flying. \'93I don\rquote t know, Master. I\rquote ve no idea! All I know is that it doesn\rquote t feel right. Call it intuition. Call it a gut feeling. I just know it, in my bones and in my core. We need to leave.\'94 \par The Noble stared down into his love\rquote s eyes, and then nodded. \'93I agree. I was feeling much the same. I told myself I was being paranoid. But you\rquote re right. Something is strange here. And I\rquote d honestly as soon not linger and f ind out what.\'94 \par The air went out of her in a rush, and Silmaria felt herself relax, if only somewhat. She gave him a shaky smile. \'93Thank you, Sir. For listening to me. For not thinking I\rquote m a fool.\'94 \par \'93You\rquote re many things, Sil, but a fool you are not,\'94 Rael nodded, reaching up to brush away the tumble of rich, gleaming curls that had fallen before her eyes. He bent and kissed her, soundly, and then nodded to their things in the corner. \'93 Let\rquote s get our things together, and be away from here.\'94 \par They gathered their supplies quickly and orderly in the manner they\rquote d become accustomed to over the long days on the road. Silmaria felt lighter already. It was a strange sort of thing, the impulsive urgency to be away from the inn. \par Silmaria cinched her belt on around her narrow waist and shouldered her pack. She glanced around the room while Rael strapped his greatsword to his back, and not without more than a bit of fondness in her gaze. Despite the unease she felt, and a certainty that their stay had reached its end, their brief time here had been welcome, and needed. \par \'93I never thought just a few days ago that I would pass up a chance at one more night in a bed,\'94 Silmaria mused. \par Rael chuckled softly, and shook his head. \'93Neither did I. All things in their time, I suppose. And it\rquote s time we moved on.\'94 \par \'93Yeah,\'94 Silmaria agreed softly. \'93We still have to go find our answers.\'94 \par \'93Yes,\'94 Rael nodded. \'93And one night sooner is still too long away for my liking. Let\rquote s go.\'94 \par \'93Yes, Sir.\'94\line \tab Rael opened the door leading out into the inn. \par The candles and wall lanterns spread throughout the inn were each and every last one extinguished. The hallways and common room below were as dark and empty as the moonless void outside. \par The inn reeked of death, a coppery tang in the air of fresh spilt blood. \par \'93Get back,\'94 Rael hissed. \par The knight took a single step back, one hand motioning behind him as the other reached for the hilt of his greatsword at his shoulder. \par Before his fingers could wrap around the hilt, a curved blade plunged into his back.}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f0\fs24\insrsid2760882\charrsid210510 \par }\pard\plain \ltrpar\ql \fi720\li0\ri0\sl480\slmult1\widctlpar\wrapdefault\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0 \rtlch\fcs1 \af31507\afs22\alang1025 \ltrch\fcs0 \f31506\fs22\lang1033\langfe1033\cgrid\langnp1033\langfenp1033 {\rtlch\fcs1 \af31507 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid8802324 \par }\pard \ltrpar\ql \li0\ri0\sl480\slmult1\widctlpar\wrapdefault\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0\pararsid2760882 {\rtlch\fcs1 \af31507 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid2760882 *** \par I am NOT dead, I promise! \par Seriously though.
