Until a cold hand Humanoid with clawed fingernails felt clamped around it in some gagging choke hold. The choke hold seemed to focus onto one side making him look off his right. He saw the hand belonged to King Winter in a humanoid Egyptian form gnashing fanged teeth aimed at him while wearing an icy like pointed crown on top of the long haired head. Jinks saw the male was sticking out of the icy cave wall up to his chest clad in gonoid skin clothing.
He felt himself nervous some more as a male voice loud and demanding blasted in his mind "Identify yourself or suffer my wrath!"
The stranger felt fear take control spoke in Summeran out loud "The name is Robert Jinx O'Neil sir. Excuse me for traveling through your domain your lordship."
Jinx eyed King Winter who cocked his head with Humanoid eyes narrowed in a glare aimed at him.
He again got the loud demanding voice he figured was King Winter's, speaking mentally to him "You reek of Lance Richard! Explain that!"
Jinx spoke out loud "Lance gave up a part of him to be implanted in a Humanoid female who bore me. This was resulted from him saying that I'm an offspring of him fathered through a female."
He clamped his mouth shut feeling himself still nervous as King Winter without a word released his neck and disappeared through the icy wall. Wall he saw wound up closing up behind the cold lord.
Jinx mentally spoke feeling himself still nervous "I hope that's the last I see King Winter around here. He makes me nervous."
He heard from his Father Lance in response "Actually King Winter is just observing you like he does regarding visitors traveling through his domain kingdom. He only feeds off people who don't cooperate with his questioning."
Jinx groaned softly feeling himself nervous as the watching feeling resumed. He found to his relief Maribel able to move by her moving unexpectedly traveling through the snow. He shivered from the cold as there was a loud roaring noise heard making him panic recognizing the noise as King Winter's reported pet guardian some kind of lizard like dinosaur. Jinx shook from the noises as Maribel continued to travel through the cave.
He heard water running unexpectedly heard the horse give off excited sounds and figured that she was terribly thirsty.
He guided Maribel through the cave passageway feeling himself nervous of when King Winter's pet guardian would pounce on them unexpectedly.
There was a small waterfall come into view from the wall which he felt the horse needed a drink urged her towards it. He ran his fingers through the waterfall finding it was harmless water and leaned towards it taking gulps of water. He allowing Maribel to have her fill from the stream of water seeing that she was terribly thirsty from how lengthy she drank. Jinx once done drinking and seeing Maribel done guided the horse out of the cave passageway making him want to leave King Winter's domain as fast as possible.
He traveled through a cave passageway to hear a loud roaring noise sounding familiar to him. Making him look up unexpectedly to see with fear a giant scaly gonoid he recognized as some giant dinosaur like crocodile. It was appearing to be biting at the see through ceiling above him and not having success in breaking it. He eyed the ceiling to see it was entirely smooth and see through as the massive crocodile followed their progress while biting repeatedly. They entered a cave passageway with ground blocking his view.
He sighed and looked around stopping Maribel's progress seeing a sign in the wall saying "Now leaving King Winter's Kingdom. Entering neutral territory domain between the cold lord and Egyptians, enter at your own risk."
He felt himself nervous as Maribel continued to travel through the cave passageway that was littered with plants in the walls. He urged her to continue instead of letting her stop to graze on them.
He exhaled a breath and inhaled through his mouth from fear hitting him as the watching sense continued instead of stopping. He forced himself to nose breathe again. He figured to himself that King Winter was still observing him making him still nervous.
They both traveled through the cave passageway.
Jinx forced Maribel to ignore the plants despite her whinnying of protest. She indicating that she wanted to eat by her repeatedly trying to go to the plants and him forcing her to move away from them.
He gasped as he saw bones of a Human hanging from the plants on the wall. He figured that it was actually a living sentient ivy plant that captured people and gonoids for King Winter to feed off of once ensnared in its ivy vines. He urged Maribel through the cave passageway finding her not protesting to the urging instead continued on going through it. The plant's ivy vines making him nervous in being captured by the ivy plant's whims for King Winter to feed off of. Jinx had to duck repeatedly as the ivy's vines dangled in the cave passageway.
He felt a choking sensation around his neck as something wrapped around it abruptly. He halted Maribel and reached with a hand to feel the ivy's vine was wrapped around him. He pulled at the ivy vine with both hands finding his efforts met failure. The plant's hold continued becoming tighter and tighter making him gag as he felt another ivy vine around him focused around his middle. Jinx felt fear hitting him struggled to free himself by yanking onto the ivy with his hands finding the plant refused to budge. He felt panic taking hold heard Maribel giving off whinnying in terror sounds. He looked to see the ivy's vines was around her neck area and she was caught by the ivy as he was. Jinx gasped for air again as he struggled to breathe finding the ivy plant was cutting off his oxygen from its tight hold. He jerked as he sensed himself watched by senses again blaring warning.
Jinx screamed out "Help me now!"
He found in an answer to his cry was a loud roaring sound sounding familiar to him.
The ivy vine yanked him off the horse dangling him choking for a breath in the air. He eyed Maribel finding she was caught by the ivy vine as well and couldn't bolt. He felt the ivy vine around his neck let go abruptly making him gasp for air finding himself able to breathe again but the plant's hold around his middle continued.
He again felt an itchy feeling on his neck off his left jerked his head to see dangling from a vine was a familiar Humanoid he recognized as King Winter who had a hand on his neck with fingers touching the area. He stiffened of fear sensing that King Winter was going to feed off of him as the cold lord grabbed his neck in some choke hold.
He gagged as he heard mentally blaring in his mind "I'll let you go! You said the code words I was expecting to hear from Humanoids caught in my pet's snared trap! You blab of this to anyone and I'll know of it! I won't be mercy next time we meet so keep your mouth shut or else!"
Jinx bobbed his head in some Humanoid styled yes gesture. He felt himself freed from the holds' of King Winter and ivy's vines to land onto the ground with a grunt sound knocking his head on a rock passing out unconscious to dream of a memory.
He recalled coming to smelling food triggering his mouth to water abruptly. He woke up finding himself in a small brown room with only a mattress on the floor that appeared to be a jail cell by the windows barred. He went to the door finding it was ajar and appearing to be made out of metal. He saw food in bowls sitting on a stand in the hallway lighted by glowing lights that didn't indicate of fire to him by smell hung from the walls. He felt himself confused to why the mysterious inhabitants of the jail containing him on his request had him out of the room. That included of just keeping him isolated in his jail cell on his request for long periods of time. Along with only dropping off nourishments once they were sure he was passed out unconscious or not aware of them doing the drop off.
He exhaled a breath and went to the food to sit hearing a door slam sound behind him. He looked to find the jail cell's door shut.
He went to the door to yank and heard it giving off an unfamiliar noise with an odd male monotone voice speaking "Door locked."
Jinx frowned hearing that.
He felt himself terribly hungry ate the food via using his hands. That was not able to find utensils to eat them. This included sipping via bowl rim its liq
uid's contents. He was completely done eating and drinking to stand up taking a look around in the hallway.
He assumed was it looking like it was like stone walls from the looks of it. That except for the glowing lights to find a metallic fence see through gate slamming down in the direction he was facing with spear points jutting from it.
Jinx exhaled a breath and inhaled turning around to go in the direction the jail's inhabitants wanted him to go to. He followed the hallway seemingly having closed doors on both sides of him.
The doors gave up their familiar wording to him when he tried to open each of them by hand on the doorknob. He exhaled a breath and figured that he'll follow the hallway and give up trying doors. He proceeded to do seemingly lengthy finding a set of stone like rock stairs going up at the end of the hallway. He followed finding himself having to use night vision. Due to the glowing lights weren't there and in place of each of them were one figure of male form covered up in all odd soft clothing resembled military wear to him. They had a stick weapon in their hands that would attack him with swinging the weapon aimed at his head. They attacked him while they trying to avoid him trying to knock the weapon out of their hands.
He found himself doing movements of kicking and fisting and arm swinging. That seemed odd to him like he had muscle memory
