Imra'el - The discover of pain.

On his way to Tochan, Imra'el encounters a couple of Crellus. The huge green beasts look at the boy and charge on his direction, and a fighting begins. That annoyance got Imra'el full of it - he had dealt with the beasts for enough time.

The blossoms the dryad leaves on the way started to take an effect on the Crellus in a few seconds, and as soon as he saw they were dazed, Imra'el sent his vines with brute force against the two monsters... but they held it up, coming at the boy with even more fierce now.


Intriguing, isn't it? The pain they were submitted to had not put the monsters in fear, rather had given them a harder resolve to kill the dryad. He, curiously, uses the same stategy, summoning his Healing Tree to assist him with any minor injuries that'd be inflicted. And the Crellus come now with even more wrath, trying to take Imra'el with a brute force he never thought it'd be possible for a Crellus.

'... fascinanting', he says as dodges one more of the Crellus's attack. He repeats that one more time.

And another. And another. And again. And again, until the Crellus's finally start to give in. Now, rather than killing, one of the Crellus's starts to run away, but the numerous injuries do not allow the beast to move with any speed at all. He keeps whipping it, until the Crellus's finally falls to the ground. The other one he held up with one of his vines, as Imra'el walks up to the fallen Crellus. The beast's roar were now turned in a twisted moan, both in pain and a bit of despair, though Imra'el still felt rage inside the beast. Had it any strength left, it'd certinaly tear him apart. His curiosity made Imra'el blind of any moral for a few seconds, and there, right there in the middle of nowhere and with no one to see, he spanks the wounded Crellus with his vines, watching the beast's reaction go from that monstrous roar he had heard before to a lower cry at each whip that was done by his plants.

And, after almost one minute of beating, the beast stops to make any noise and moving. That was it.

He looks at the other Crellus, who'd still attempt to roar but seemed clearly weaker than before and repeats the process. It goes and goes, beating the beast as it puts out all anger it had held inside and slowly starts to cry, too.

In a few minutes, the beast dies out too, and as the thickest vine releases it's body and it falls to the ground, Imra'el realises the need of such a feeling he was now incapable of having.

Imra'el says, "... so this is pain. Inflict it enough and you'll have the victim to show up a strength not even it had idea it had; inflict too much, and it causes loss of mind and even will to live. Pain is, in the end, what makes us stronger."
Imra'el says that last sentence with a smile on his face.
