Pain is nothing but a contender

@Bazi You can still join if you like, but I'm opening this for his sister. @Vienna care to join in she could have followed him or something.

Jace woke with a strangled cry and a retch of bile deep in his throat at the pain that burned white hot up his leg and into his chest. He lay there his chest heaving, hurting worse while he fought to calm down and he squeezed his eyes tight at the pain and pressure deep within his inner most chest and shoulder. Bowing his head he struggled to his feet, each movement painful and causing a heaving gasp of pain. Finally, he stood on aching limb it was always worse at night and the colder it got at night.

He walked or more like limped down the mountainside, cursing himself up one side and down the other for his hot blooded temper. He whimpered as he walked, but he gritted his teeth and continued down. Hopefully, the way back up wouldn’t be as so bad, but he needed to get away far far away from the sunspire for a brief interlude.

He made it to the newly christened Ember wood, thanks to Red, who had just disappeared leaving broken hearts and broken trust in her wake. He panted as he made it and then he sat there and stared off into space, as the nighttime creatures came to life, his blue eyes took it all in while he panted in pain.
