Sumdud

Hey, have you heard of a rumour floating around recently?

I heard that there’s this girl walking around, weird, right? She walks and just goes around the place, no one knows who she is, no one knows where she came from. Hell, I don’t think even she knows the answers.

But oddly enough, she never seems to age, does she? Of all the dragons, dwarves, elves everywhere, there’s a simple tale passed down from generation to generation.

Of a girl that does not age.

But...

How did it all start? In this fantasy world, how did this person come to be?

A world where humans isolate themselves within their walls, wary of the monsters that lie outside. A world of magic, a world of fantasy, but nothing seems carefree nor fun.

Dating back to one of the greatest disasters known to humanity, the disaster where many deaths were witnessed, life was made.

Living eternally, forever wandering about the world. Monsters do not attack her, no sickness plagues her, and time becomes irrelevant. Wandering from village to village, eventually, she comes across a group of excited people.

'Hey, take us out to the unknown, we want to see the world!'

This is a tale of finding the meaning of life in a world where nothing seems to go anyone's way.

Immortal Wanderer

Lied met up with Desmond at the Main District.

Lied had pretty much guessed where Desmond would be, judging by his daily itinerary he hung up on the wall that clearly stated his whereabouts for the day. Lied snuck up to Desmond, who was observing some jewellery. Lied stood right beside Desmond without making a sound, asking him, "What's with the bling?"

Lied was then escorted out by security before Desmond could even give a proper reaction. The Vampire, who seemed to enjoy having an Ethereal body, was floating above Lied, lying down around Lied's shoulder. She told him, "Even I knew that wouldn't have worked out."

Desmond, without buying anything, walked out of the store to meet up with Lied. He asked Lied, concern on his face, "How did you find me?"

"Long story," Lied waved the question aside. "Besides that, I wanted to ask if I could tag along when you're watching Kalego's Sports Day?"
