~Shadow of the Past~
|
There was a earth-shattering howl from a monster as the heavy blade cut into its heavy hide. It tried to remain upright but collapsed to the floor and felt its own lifeforce leaving its body. Another, a smaller insect-like fiend rushed the human, its claws outstretched and ready to slash at the young man's torso. The claws scrapped the armor and the fiend bounced back and regained its balance on the ground. It snarled and flashed its fangs at the armored figure. Noah sighed, this was about the fifth monster, or 'fiend' as these people called them, that he had came across in the past half hour. He rose the Nightmare again and swung it hard, the thick blade connecting the the fiend's neck. There was a distinctive and loud crack as the fiend's bones broke followed by a thud as its lifeless body hit the ground. Without resting or regaining himself fully, the Judge quickly scanned the area and concluded that there weren't any of these monsters left. He let out a sign of relief and holstered the Nightmare onto the holster on his back, finally glad to be getting a break. He walked forward and looking at the ruins before him. The architecture reminded him a little of Pharos at Ridorana and he found that similar-looking structures to the Pharos would be the best place to start looking for a way back. He lifted his hand to his neck, undone the helmet couplings and lifted the thick armored helmet off his head and placed it onto a small flat rock surface just beside him. He looked at the ruins again, this time with his own eyes and noticed the similarities in the architecture. Knowing that he had all the time in the world, more or less, he decided to take have a rest. He undone the holster on his back and placed it against the rock surface where his helmet sat. He sat on the ground, one leg outstretched while the other remain folded. Both his arms stretched and connect the ground, proving him with some balance. He looked up into the sky and listened to the quiet sounds of nature. He smiled, "Maybe this world isn't so bad after all". |
