Perspective: Conrad Garnier"Here's your tea .... hold it still .... "."It's hot".Regina handed me a cup of hot tea, good for this freezing weather.I thanked her.As I took a sip, a comforting warmth spread through my body, thawing away the chill. Simultaneously, I noticed a pleasant tingling sensation in my throat, reminding me of its previous soreness. Surprisingly, it felt rather soothing and enjoyable.We had been traveling since yesterday in this frigid weather, no wonder my throat was sore.I asked Yuna,"Do you want to have a cup of tea?".She replied,"No .... I don't drink tea".Who doesn't drink tea? Then she took out a bottle of wine, took a sip.And said,"This is all I need".I had a question,So I asked her,"Isn't that cold?".She replied,"It is".That some dedication to alcohol.As she took another cold sip from that bottle, I could sense her shivering.Out of concern, I said."Stop that ... or you will catch frostbite".With a playful gaze in her eyes and a cheeky
Perspective: Regina Clement.In that nick of time, just as the wolf leapt towards my neck, my heart pounded like crazy, I knew I was done for,However,an unexpected shard of ice materialized, swiftly impaling its head, killing that wolf and saving me.I knew It wasn't mine, but who was it?Then with a familiar voice, she spoke,"Now you owe me one".Yuna spoke.Conrad, terrified of what might have happened to me, Immediately asked me,"Regina .... You all right".Without letting him worry much I quickly responded,"Barely"."This old hag here saved me".Why did I say that?, she saved my life and yet I couldn't stand her, I had to say that.Naturally, Yuna retaliated,"Hey.... who are you calling a old hag?".For some reason I always acted like that to her, rude and insensitive even though she saved my life, I couldn't stand her.She always clings to him, I know she can't steal him from me, she can't steal something I don't have, but still.I know he doesn't mind it, so let me have hi
Perspective : Regina Clement"Ron .... Ron ...".Sheela cried as her little brother was snatched by that creature, that thing,Kyle shocked and confused exclaimed,"What the hell is that?".Emilia recognising the thing vaguely answered,"It's a huge bug catcher".Keira unable to grasp what she meant asked,"What's a bug catcher?".Emilia responded,"It's a plant that eat ....".Emilia's words were cut short as Thor Gild intervened, he was quick and on point ,"We don't have time for that hurry before he gets eaten".It was all so sudden, I couldn't even grasp what had just aspired, But for Sheela her whole world flipped upside down in a matter of seconds, I couldn't even imagine what she was going through, So without spilling a single word, I complied and we all rushed towards Ron, our wands on the ready, and as expected those peculiar roots sprouted from the ground, those living ropes attempting to ensnare us,As we were already prepared, and moreover I was prepared, so without wastin
Perspective : Conrad GarnierSearching for a way to save Ron, Kyle asked,"Are you sure ... will any healing potion work?".Patrick replied with the truth,"No ... the severity is way beyond healing ... his skin needs to be repaired"."It cannot be healed "."that burnt has altered the primary composition of his skin ... It won't go back to normal".Sheela in a desperate attempt to save her brother begged Patrick,"Please save him .... I will do anything... he is the only family I have left ".She grovelled before him, and yet Patrick couldn't do anything to save her brother.It was shameful, his 1 job was to heal us, and he couldn't even do that, just disappointing.What If I or Regina ever got hurt, with that phony acting as a healer, could he heal us, I questioned myself.It was unacceptable.Kyle remained silent with how incompetent he was as a leader,No one was making any decision, we needed to keep moving, staying in the same position possessed the risk of being ambushed once ag
Perspective : Conrad GarnierEscaping from our first line of defence, a few wolves slipped, they rushed towards Yuna, I bet they saw her as an easy prey, but we couldn't let them reach her.My hands were full dealing with the once which were pouncing on me.Someone had to stop them.I guess, she couldn't quite control her anger, that bad luck streak, she figured out that she couldn't just cry her way out of this situation now, if she wanted to save her brother, she had to do that on her own.And I know, sometimes if you need things to be done, the best course of action is to do them yourself. So, She stopped hiding behind our backs, she stood up to fight for her brother, to be honest I respected that. That's how things should have been from the beginning, why bothering begging in front of a deaf audience?It was pointless and she figured that out, finally.Sheela casted the spell "Flame Sphere." Dim sparks of fire ignited in the air close to the wolves resembling tiny candles. I k
Perspective : Thor Gild"Noooo".Regina exclaimed, dear Regina she did her best and yet it wasn't enough,Life is always like that, hard and difficult to fathom, sometimes it's even unreasonable, downright doesn't make any sense,But we had to march on, face those difficulties head on, I knew that.But I couldn't help but give up hope, pray for an easier route.I know,I was a shame among my clan, the spirits of our ancestors were probably disappointed in me.And yet knowing that, I couldn't move, fear had gotten the best of me.The crystal was destroyed and there was nothing that could have been done.Federica had tried to save Sheela, who herself was devastated by the loss of her brother.Now that it happened to her, Federica was dead, killed in front of her.life truly goes all out when it does,that poor girl,Terrified and probably still in a state of trauma, she exclaimed,"I can't believe she is dead, .... she was just talking to me right now ..... and now she is dead"."How c
Perspective : Thor GildAs that plant covered it's core with vines.Nothing could penetrate it, I saw it as everyone tried their best to cut those vines, somehow get past it's defences and destroy that core.But nothing worked, icy spells, incineration, swords made of glass.Nothing worked.I was getting worried, but that part of me was still there, which kept saying.Maybe I could have a try at it.Maybe I would succeed.But there I was still standing, I needed to guard them, trust in my friends and hope for the best.He was also there. I could sense that frustration and anger he felt which was similar to mine.To be able to do nothing, when our expertise were required the most.I felt his anger, his hate for himself and that abhorrence for life.Carrying all those intense emotions,Patrick charged towards that plant, discreetly approaching it, that plant was unable to move, all those attacks and spells were not all for nothing, It had immobilised that plant, it's movements being res
Perspective: Conrad GarnierWe were basically fucked.It hadn't even been two days since we entered that forest, and our minds were already messed up.If someone had described the events that unfolded for us in just 2 days as happening to them casually over a drink at the tavern, I would never have believed them in a million years. In the course of just two days, the things we saw, fought and survived from, were straight up bullshit.A creature straight from the folk tales we had heard but never believed happened, hundreds and thousands of dare wolves of a rare species.all preying on us simultaneously.That's bullshit.And yet we held our own, which to be honest, was the only positive aspect about that whole ordeal.However, as if fate and a higher power had not already fucked enough with our lives, they decided to step up their game. Those weird plants, those things literally had all of us, caused us to lose our damn minds.And the most discomforting thing about it was the fact tha
