An Arrow to the Heart

Larson dashed out of the room when he heard a scream. Dark violet light flashed from the end of the hallway. Merlize and Edwin were knocked out on the ground. Nyatalia was nowhere to be found.


A blackish-violet fish flew toward the collapsed duo. Larson summoned his red sword and blocked its sets of teeth from munching on their bodies. Its chompers sank into the weapon and evaporated.


The fish flew out of the opening. Larson tailed the toothless creature until it led him to the outskirts of town.


Darkness reigned over the clouds. White birds passing by turned black. Lightning struck the center of deserted nothingness. The ground swayed sideways.


A sandy temple emerged from the sands from where the lightning struck. It had yellow vertical rectangular structures of varying heights. There were no doors, but there was an opening at the uppermost part of the middle building, similar to a balcony.
