Chapter 1 – 14.5
A march of calamity
[Author’s Note]
This is short, but introduces chapter 15.
Within the dark forest, a large shadow was creeping.
Thud… Thud… The shadow stepped firmly and slowly, its footsteps echoing far.
Various other sized shadows moved around the periphery of the large shadow.
Human shaped shadows, but both larger and smaller than a human.
Four legged shadows.
Bear like shadows.
Moving slowly, they all walked in the same direction.
If one of the shadows fell, it would be trampled without a second thought.
Where are they headed, lumbering and wandering onward like this?
Their numbers must exceed 1000, but the exact total, who could say?
What are they seeking, advancing like this? The questions keep piling up.
The only thing known for sure is the ominous red glowing eyes on the large shadow, signalling a terrible event soon to come.
