Condemn

The sun shone brightly in the sky above. The sound of animals was ever present in the forest. Mortal birds were chirping, and a mortal deer fearfully advanced through the dense thicket in fear of arousing the attention of a Fierce Beast or a human.

Suddenly, this lively forest turned deadly silent. The birds dared not chirp, and the deer dared not move.

It was as if a predator had started to move within the ecosystem; the entire area was silent, yet the animals still dared not move.

Finally, the sound of rustling appeared, after which a young man stepped out from behind a dense cluster of branches and bushes.

This young man was wearing tattered red clothes that had seen better days. Although his clothes were made from Fierce Beast silk, they were clearly worn down from extensive travel through desolate and difficult areas.
