An encounter

In the eerie realm of blood-red skies and desolation, the echoing voice reverberated from every direction, its ethereal resonance seeming to emanate from the very fabric of the bleak landscape.

"How did you discern my presence, buried within the body of that mortal?" the voice resounded, filled with an otherworldly curiosity.

Alex, though surrounded by the foreboding atmosphere, remained unperturbed. A wry chuckle escaped his lips, cutting through the haunting silence.

"I've encountered a more adept God of death before," he retorted with confidence. "The scent of death is something I've grown more accustomed to."

A fleeting hush fell over the desolate landscape at his words, the air thick with an unspoken tension. The voice, echoing from the ominous expanse, queried further, mentioning the name Damon Ross.
