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

She blinked a few times before she heard a deafening shriek. She covered her ears and looked around, the scenery was completely different. There was someone on the ground in front of her. Her breathing became even more rugged as she processed the scene.

There was some grass around the area, along with several stones sticking up. It was a graveyard.

Ruby pushed herself off the ground with great difficulty. She was running low on mana and her injuries were becoming worse. Ruby turned to face Lily before she kicked Lily in the chest. Her foot never hit Lily before Ruby herself was thrown backwards. A sudden realisation came to Lily as she turned back.

"You're a sneaky one," Ruby grumbled.

She dropped the device and staggered back onto her feet, breathing hard. Lily kept her eyes on Ruby, but there was only one thought in her mind.
