She squirmed in pain as the mist spread throughout her body.

”Ivery!” Luther looked up
He saw her looking down at him out of the broken window, she was nonchalantly staring at the scene.
”Hm?” Ivery smiled
”Let's go, we're leaving.” Luther said
”Alright.” Ivery nodded
She broke off the remaining glass pieces that were still attached to the window, she put her foot on the window seal and leaped out.
As she descended to the ground, Luther caught her before her feet were able to make contact with the stone ground.
”It's great that this is an alleyway.” Ivery looked around
”If it weren't, I wouldn't have been able to do this without attracting attention..” Luther looked down at the gasping woman
Ivery looked at the woman closer and saw that her skin was gravely pale, her previous beauty was completely diminished.
Large black patches that looked like bruises were all over her skin, and her breasts...looked smaller than before.
”What did you do?” Ivery asked
”I manipulated her body and some of her organs.” Luther said
”Which organs?” Ivery asked
”Stomach, brain, and uterus.” Luther told her
”And you manipulated those organs how exactly?” Ivery was curious
”She won't be able to talk anymore, nor can she eat solid food, and she cannot conceive children.” He explained
”They were bigger than that...” Ivery pointed at the woman's chest
”Oh those? I just reduced the size of those '????????????????????????????????????????????', she won't be needing them anyways, since she won't be having children.” Luther smiled
”Much worse than death..” Ivery thought this was much more suited for her than death
”Certainly.” Luther nodded
Luther grabbed Ivery's hand and he led her out of the alley and back out into the town.
”We should just go back to the Hollow's castle...” Ivery slightly frowned
”What? Why?” Luther turned around to look at her
”Today obviously hasn't been the greatest, Luther...is it even possible to have a little enjoyment in this world..?” Ivery asked him with a sad expression
”Of course...this world isn't the best, but there are plenty of ways to still enjoy it.” Luther gently smiled
”How? Today's been nothing but problems after another.” Ivery sighed
”The town has been unpleasant so far...so let me take you somewhere else that might save the day.” Luther picked her up
”Luther?” Ivery was taken by surprise
”Hold on tight.” Luther smirked
Ivery wrapped her arms around his neck and he immediately jumped up and ascended.
The people around was alarmed and were left as stiff as stone statues.
...
Luther descended to the ground.
”Close your eyes.” Luther said
”Why..?” Ivery smiled
”Just close them for me.” Luther kissed her forehead
”Okay, okay.” Ivery covered her eyes with her hands
She could hear him walking on what sounded like dried leaves..
As she breathed, she could smell the fresh scent of grass and....water..?
”You can open your eyes..” Luther said
”....” Ivery slowly took her hands off of her eyes
”Oh...my..” Ivery's eyes glistened
”It's..so beautiful..” Ivery was enchanted by the sight
