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

"As I said, I'm a friend of one of the parents," Lied told the security guard.

The security guard shook his head and jutted his chin to the side. He told Lied, "Do you have any idea how many people use that excuse to get in before? Terrorise somewhere else, bud."

Lied paced away before thinking to the Vampire, 'Can you find somewhere I can sneak in through?'

"And why should I do that, human?" The Vampire asked, still lazing in the air.

"I mean, you don't really do anything anyway," Lied tried to argue.

"I'm dead, I don't see how I can do anything as a projection of your mind," The Vampire stated. "I have no reason to listen to you."

"It's important for what I want to do," Lied explained. "If you help me, it'll quicken the process of invading Babil."

The Vampire hesitated slightly, rubbing her chin as she looked back at the school. She eventually told him, "I suppose that is a fair point."
