The stone steps collapsed a long time ago,
On top of it was a tangle of tree roots and dry moss.
The water was running rotten, and the air was heavy.
The dryer holds the crossbow low and says.
"This is... It's not nature, it's leftovers."
"Not a living forest, not a dead forest."
Naird looks around with his sword in his hand.
The waves shook minutely at her feet.
"But still... Water veins are alive."
"Someone just twisted it on purpose."
At that moment.
Mud splits like boiling on the floor.
The shape takes place in rotten water.
They were corrupt prisoners.
The shape was blurred, and the face was distorted like a memory.
At this moment,
Dryard's vision shakes for a moment.
But she clenches her teeth and pulls the crossbow.

The sword becomes one with the water.
The smoke is rampant, waves become blades and wrap around the afterglow.
