The three of them walked around, ignoring everyone. People around them are all feasting over jugs of wine and chunks of meat. They are all having a good time. They are singing unfamiliar tunes while dancing around the campfire. The three of them sat on a corner watching the people.
"This is tedious" Virgil lets out a deep sigh.
"You're fucking right." Daniel sighed as well.
"I want to leave this place," said Katherine.
"Aren't we all?" Daniel lets out another deep sigh.
"We'll wait for a right timing then we'll get out of here." Virgil scratched her chin.
"God I hate my life," Daniel complained.
The three of them went silent. They just sat in their spot, watching people enjoy themselves. Daniel looked around. He saw the chieftain conversing with other people. They are laughing while drinking liquor. Daniel kept his eye on the man. He observed his actions, carefully. The chieftain seems
"What do you mean no one's leaving?" Virgil asked. "No one's leaving until the end of the festival. That's what I meant!" the chieftain replied. Virgil lets out a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness," she said. "Excuse me sir." Daniel raised his hands. "What do you usually do during the festival?" he asked. "We eat a lot, we gather our harvests, we danced around and have fun," the chieftain replied. "But most importantly we held a seasonal game event." He clenched his fist and raised his hand into the air. He looked at Daniel and smiled. "Sounds amusing." Daniel smiled awkwardly. "After the festival, you'll let us leave right?" Virgil asked. "We'll see about that." The chieftain smirked at Virgil. He then walked away from them. "I have a bad feeling about this," said Daniel. "Same Daniel, same." Virgil frowned. All of a sudden they heard a lou
"Why would I hand my special guests to you?" Horcus folded his arms while raising an eyebrow. "Their kinds are more suitable to live with our more civilized tribe," Azermonth replied. "Do you really think I'll allow you to steal away these people? We found them first, therefore, we own them!" said Horcus. "If you don't hand the newcomers to me, there will be bloodshed," Azermonth warned. "Looks like your tribe is not civilized at all." Horcus smirked. Daniel just watched the tribe leaders while they are arguing. Virgil and Katherine observed them as well. They kept debating over who should keep the three newcomers. Daniel poked Virgil's shoulder.&nb
Virgil visited a house in the middle of nowhere. The house is round in shape and it is made out of solid rock. In its side there is a round window that is wide open. Virgil leaped on it, entering the house. She sniffed the floor trying to search for the source of a familiar scent. She stumbled upon the foot of a man. She looked up only to find out that the man has three heads of a Rottweiler dog. The man scowled at her, growling. Virgil looked up. "Hi Brother!" She showed him a nervous smile. The man with three heads of a dog picked her up. He is scowling at her while growling. All of a sudden one of his head licked Virgil's furry face. The man's name is Serbrus. "Virgil! How are you doing?" Serbrus asked, cheerfully. "I'm doing great Serbrus! Thank you!" Virgil smiled at the man. "What in the hell are you doing here? Aren't you suppose to be with Alcharon at the shore?" The mouth of the creature
The three of them bid farewell to Serbrus. They thanked him for helping them get out of their tough situation. They entered the tunnel that will lead them to their next destination. They found the tunnel at a forest, below a cliff that lies at the edge of it. All of them looked at each other, took a deep breath, then they all entered the dark and quiet tunnel. The tunnel they are currently trailing has a warmer atmosphere. Sweat started trickling down their skins. The hot breeze of air makes it difficult for them to even breath."Why is it so hot in here?" Daniel wiped away the sweat that is trickling down from his forehead."I'm already soaked in sweat!" Katherine complained. The fabric of her clothes are starting to stick to her skin. Random wet marks are starting to appear in the area of her tops that lies over her
The three of them found the elevator. They all went inside it. The interior of elevator is also made out of gold. They can see their reflection clearly on its shimmering walls. Despite it being inside a building that is in the middle of a burning place, the temperature inside the elevator is almost freezing cold. Virgil pushed a few buttons, pulled a lever, then they started descending down. The elevator is moving down, slowly. Daniel sat down in a squatting position and tapped Virgil's furry back with his pointing finger. The cat turned to look at him. Daniel unveiled the hood of his cloak, showing a clear view of his face."How did your friend convinced the tribe motherfuckers to let us go?" he asked."He just talked to them then they all listen. The leaders refused to follow him at first but eventually,
The tree man escorted them into the woods. They walked through the path that is filled with tall trees, grass and bushes. While walking, Virgil explained to the tree man that they are just staying in the settlement for a while because they need a place to stay for the night. The tree man expressed that he understands their situation. It took them several minutes before reaching the end of the forest. Upon emerging from it they were greeted by the sight of three tree people, gathering around a campfire. Their appearances are almost similar except for their faces and the shape of their bodies. One tree has a straight body. He is called Tree Number Seventy Seven. The other one has a body with curves and she has a face of an average woman, They call her tree Number One Hundred and Six. The last one has a body that is surrounded by roots and vines. He is called Tree Number Five Hundred Sixty. All of the trees don't have a name. They are all identified through numbers. The numbers assigne
Morning came, Daniel woke up, still feeling a little bit tired. He was not able to get enough sleep the previous night because he still feels like something wrong is going to be happen. Virgil got up, beside her Katherine is still sleeping soundly. She walked towards Daniel. She greeted him with a good morning. Daniel greeted her back. "Why are you up so early?" the cat asked. "I just want to start my day early," Daniel replied. "You're eager to get out of this place, aren't you?" the cat assumed. "I just want to keep moving, that's all." Daniel stretched his arm. "Well, lets just wait for Katherine to get up then we'll bid farewell to this people. Is that okay with you?" The cat looked at Daniel, raising an eyebrow. "Sounds cool to me." Daniel showed a smile to the cat. Katherine woke up. She sat up and cleaned the corner of her eyes. She greeted her acquaintances a good morning. They
The dry leaves made a crunching sound as the three of them step on them. The forest is a little bit dark and shady. The ray of orange light that is coming from the sky is peeking through the leaves of the tall trees around them. The forest is quiet. What awaits them in the end is a mystery to Katherine and Daniel. Virgil on the other hand, knows what is the abomination that they should be expecting. Daniel panted a few times, trying to catch his breath. He's starting to feel tired because they have been trailing the woods for several hours. Katherine is starting to feel exhausted as well. Her legs are starting to ache. Virgil looked at them and saw how tired they are. "Maybe we should stop for a while," she suggested. "Good idea! I need to catch a few breaths," Katherine agreed. They found a tree with exposed roots. The roots are big enough for them to sit on. They decided to sat on it. Katherine grabbed a bottled water from her bag. S
