Just like that four days went by. There was no sign of life around me, no monsters nearby. The caves where just quiet. Thought two days ago there was slight tremors which I thought could have been the giant worms moving about a little far away or probably another collapse above.

I wonder if the elf is okay. She has been asleep for a long while. Wouldn’t she be hungry for sleeping that long.

The caverns seems far reaching. No matter where we went the size barely changed. Instead there were many branches and chambers that seems to go on. If it wasn’t for its natural look one would think it was man-made.

I wasn’t using the flame after drying up because there was no need in the first place. The caverns was slightly illuminated by moss which grew on the walls and stuck onto some boulders.

I’ll be honest I’m on thin rope because of my hunger. My consideration of eating the elf grows stronger and if I don’t find prey soon, I would definitely eat her. I think I can only hold on for a while lo

    “…” The two observing up above on one of the scrappers watched as the duel between the two raged. “What is that boy?” Vagna asked excitedly. Only to see the non readable yet intent look on Atthis. He turned his gaze back to the battlefield and quietly watched till the climax. The two falling to the floor after the other. “The curtain now closes. Such a shame to lose a strong pawn like Murdock…” He glanced at Atthis as he passed a comment to the concluded battle. “You don’t seem at a loss for having lost your champion. How cruel of you.” So he said but he should no care himself for losing his. Just then as though having received the news they heard two trumpets sound at the same time. Immediately after the flags of ceasefire raised on both camps. “…I merely made a gamble… and it turned out far more profitable.” She said with smile on her face as she looked down at the battle field. She begins as she slowly starts walking away. “Either way, deaths aside we are successful i

    … Above watching the ongoing battle. The mage with the mercantile smile stood in his deep brown Sith robe. The ground was little with corpses and dismembered corpses. Blood stained sands that had soaked and drained the life of those that fell. The two sides, one side the majority of therianthropes and the other humans, clash letting loose their savagery on each other. It was a gruesome sight where swords clash, severing and disemboweling of the clashing races alike. An observer would question the necessity of the savagery. In a would were there was on the expanse of desert, who knew whether there would be another settlement other than that of the two sides. So why did they not cooperative to increase their chances of survival in this cruel new world? The answer is basic: Superiority of species. One with the stronger physique wanted to declare themselves master, and the other with smarts wanted for control. So

    “Are you okay.” I look to where her voice came. Chika had somehow gotten herself out of the binding around her arm. When I glanced it seemed like it was cut. And in her hand was a very small knife, I’m sure she tucked it somewhere they wouldn’t find. She was checking on the two, cutting their bindings. I took a step to move closer. “Ugh…” I thought it would take a while to kick in. I finally got to relax seeing everything was fine, but immediately I did. I felt pain grip my entire body. My grip turned slippery from the blood that was slipping from the gunshot wound on my shoulder, and from the one that wasn’t mine. If that was all then I could deal with it, it would probably healed after a while. Aside from the nicks and cuts. I got careless back there. True, with this new found strength and reflexes you could do much, but when your are under fire it’s easy to be blindsided that was it. And that was what happ

    “… I’m here to collect my friends. And I wouldn’t hesitate to cut anyone down anyone who stands in my way!” I say as I straightened my poster, walking. “Intruder at the entrance. Men down.” … “Don’t let him in. Do whatever it takes to put him down.” I could hear the distressed voices of the men in this place. They were scrambling to get here. And those that were already close by were let lose bullets. From long before I’ve known them to be rather conservative of their ammunition, after all, the amount would be so little. But it still rained. I weaved through the debris, walls, and any cover as they closed in with cover fire. Those that chose close combat with their machetes and knives were cut down by the scythe. I closed in one by one on their gunners taking them out and moving away before I got pinned. Why? Why? Why? Why do I feel like this? Despite the rage in me, hypocritical, it may be, why

    “I’d appreciate it if you could get on with it.”“… Absolutely. Brest is his name.”Why do I get the feeling the sound of his name is exactly how he looks?“Who is he? What is his role in all this?”“The same for anyone in his position. A seat. Somewhere to belong, to hold authority.”“… I don’t get it. He’s already made his way into the top brass of that opposition faction, I assume, so why the need for more power.”Not just anyone could make it into the elites, in this case faction heads. He has to have something they need and is of the same mindset.“… Show me a person who has no greed and I will show you a world without without suffering…”Greed? In this situation do I seem to have that?… I guess. Despite having Amara, a unique to existence, I still wanted for Chika. Is that greed or lust. And then the fact, though not my own, I preferred her to be the one in control. Dose that also count.“… What do you think a desperate man would do, if you were in his situation?” He as

    When the sun got over the horizon, I got out of Chika’s place. Using the Scythe as support I dragged my aching body towards the settlement. Damn it! My whole body hurts like hell. Despite it only being sunrise the settlement is bustling. The hunt must have already been gathered and people where already up to collect their ration for the day. Technically there should be enough to ration them for months if the meat is cured, but with the time it took to cure and the amount of people that came in occasionally the daily hunts were mostly shared daily until the ones in stores was cured. I’m somewhat a familiar figure around here. Draped in a cloak, much better from the very first tarp I used, though it was old. They knew of the relation I had with Chika and the fact I was one of those who hunted most people stayed cleared of me. Then there’s the rumor about the scythe. Something about the weapon being cursed and me being a dangerous and cruel character, That really hurt my feeling, you
