Cliff of Doom

As we made our way across the ash-grey forest, lined with a terribly harsh wind and cold fog, countless more monsters came our way. Of course, with our aerial scouts ahead, it was a bit more manageable than before, but there were still causalities.

Naturally, the girls around me and myself survived. Ming Hao's team, Long Lu's team, and half the purple-armor boy's team lived as well. The other half? Not so much.

We faced monsters of all shapes and sizes — they were like normal forest animals, but mutated by something: the Grey Scourge. Birds, rabbits, tigers, snakes, the list goes on. Even the tumbleweeds we came across earlier were actually brushes turned alive and deadly.

At one point, we even ran too close to a tree and it suddenly came alive, devouring two of us whole before Obsidia immediately incinerated the thing with her Chaosborne Dragonfire.
