Perspective : Conrad Garnier........................................ Dream ........................................(What is this?)I found myself sinking downwards, as the world around me dissolved in an endless expanse of desolation, into an unfathomable sea that stretched as far as the eye can see. Its depths were void of light that engulfed me in a suffocating darkness, that weighed upon my very soul.And yet, it was soothing.I found solace in my eerie solitude.I was sinking further and further, into that bottomless sea, a sense of hopelessness clung to me like a relentless specter.The inky waters, thick and oppressive , coiled around me constricting my every movement.(For the life of me .... I can't remember what was I doing?)(Nor do I remember, who am I?)That was when, I felt the currents of the water suddenly shifting, sending a shiver down my spine.A disturbance, an anomaly in that desolate sea.

I have a tunnel to keep watch over".As, I spared a glance at Conrad's face, something felt different from before, the peaceful expression he had on his face was now gone.His forehead furrowed, his eyebrows were gathering closer together, and his usually relaxed feature became tense.He started frowning, his fists clasped.I, observing these changes, gently placed my hand on his forehead, in hopes of providing him comfort, to ease his troubled state.Elkdrack noticed that,he asked," What happened ?".I replied,"It's Conrad ... his face".Elkdrack took a look at Conrad's face and replied,"Maybe he is having a nightmare... we should try waking him up".Elkdrack retrieved his water bag and poured a small amount onto his hand.

Perspective : Conrad GarnierWith each passing moment the bug weakened, its once vibrant form was now reduced to a grotesque and mangled husk.Elkdrack commented,"I almost feel pity for the poor guy ...".Kyle responded,"Well don't be ... If we are not careful ... that will be us".Amidst that horrifying display, we felt a primal fear stir within us. The enormity and savagery of that scene reminded us of our own vulnerability in the face of nature's power.We all exchanged silent glances, a mixture of awe dread and an odd admiration for those ants savage efficiency, filled our hearts.As the final remnant of that bug was claimed by that ant, we were left thinking that, 'the natural world can be both beautiful and hauntingly terrifying.Emerging from the shadows, I noticed an ant's carcass, which seemed to have something stirring within its abdomen. it piqued my interest, I observed intently as whatever was inside struggled to break free.

I suggest ... we look for a way around".Sheela supporting Keira's suggestion, added"I second that opinion".However, Emilia remained silent in response, and I could see the terror in her eyes as I observed her face.Marcus called Emilia, "Hey ... let's go ... before it's too late".Keira called,"Hey Emilia, what happened?".But Emilia's expression remained unchanged, along with the fear in her gaze, frozen in her glance.The stillness of her face broke, as her lips imparted these words, I felt the same fear I saw in her eyes."I think... it's too late".Those things were looking straight right at us.[Emilia said"Get your weapons ready... we got no choice".]As everything happened, I found myself in a challenging situation.

Perspective : Thor GildI tightly gripped my sword, ready to face that giant ant engulfed in flames. With every step, I felt the weight of Ron on my back, limiting my movements. Without any wait that ant charges towards me, its burning presence sending waves of heat towards my face.Sensing the danger, I swiftly sidestepped the ant's ferocious attack, narrowly evading its scorching flames. The ground shook beneath me as the ant's massive pincers clamped together, attempting to catch me in its fiery grip. With a quick reflex, I lunged forward, my sword slicing through the air, aiming for the ant's vulnerable underbelly.However, the ant was relentless. It retaliated with a powerful swipe of its flaming limbs, forcing me to leap backward and narrowly avoid getting caught in the scorching inferno. My movements were limited due to the weight on my back." I refuse to let that hinder my determination".Summoning all my strength, I channeled lightning into my blade, infusing it with electrif

Perspective : Conrad Garnier"Ohh ... my leg feels as heavy as a bloody fucking boulder... for crying out loud".Elkdrack vented,Patrick replied,"Come on ... mate a little bit more ... untill we find a good place to rest for the night".Elkdrack said,"This damn cavern just goes on forever". "Does this even have an end?".Patrick responded,"Considering that ... it's more of an ant colony then a cavern ... it is to be expected"."These tunnels are likely spread out extensively, allowing for faster transfer of food .... they should also be massively interconnected".Elkdrack responded with a rather harsh tone,"Ohh shut up ... I am not in the mood for that".Elkdrack, once again expressing frustration, indirectly mentions me."I will be walkin' all fine right now, like you merry folks... if it 'ad not been, for carryin' someone... seriously, It took quite a toll on me legs."Knowing, who he was addressing that to, I replied,"Stop It .. this is what ... the 7th time you mentioned tha
My Infatuation With Death Chapter 38 : Reprieve
Perspective : Conrad GarnierWith my fire bolts, we sealed off the small tunnels through which the ants could enter. With Patrick's holy barrier, we created a temporary shield around us to prevent any surprises. To add to our defenses, Kyle released his sand into the air, filling the room with a captivating shimmer of golden dust. After completing these preparations, we could finally take some well-deserved rest.After Regina meticulously arranged the pieces of firewood, she turned to me and asked, "Conrad... If you will".I responded with a confident gesture, conjuring a small flickering flame on my finger. Carefully concealing it with my hand to protect it from extinguishing, I gingerly placed it onto the arranged firewood. Instantly, smoke began to rise as the flame ignited the wood. Sensing the need for a gentle breeze, I blew softly with my mouth, causing the flame to grow and transform into a sizable, scorching fire - perfect for cooking.I said,"Here you go".Patrick responded

I was mess'in around".Patrick replied,"Mess'in around"."Do you know how serious this is?"."This forest is filled with things that can tear us to shreds... in the blink of an eye ..."."And we will be overwhelmed... if we don't solve this shit".Elkdrack tries to calm Patrick down, by extending his hand, palm facing downward, and making a gentle waving motion. "Calm down mate ... calm down ".Patrick responded,"Sorry... I lost my compose... there for a moment.... It won't happen again"."But Elkdrack this is serious....
