journey to the Nazareth

"Okay, but what do you want me to do?""We know how they recruit new members to the cult. I know this is a hard request, but I want...." Suddenly, Robert's voice became very thick and he uttered unintelligible words in a loud and terrifying voice. His words were like no language, those words entered my head with a deafening sound, I felt like my head was going to explode, but after a few seconds I passed out.

I slowly opened my eyes and found myself suspended in a strange and indescribable atmosphere. While I was trying to move, I suddenly felt a force pull me towards him with the speed of light, so fast that I could hardly see anything, I felt that the atoms of my body were separating from each other, and after a few seconds I lost consciousness and fainted again.

I was feeling a little regret that why I decided to search this infamous desert. This desert is known as the desert of death. There are many rumors about it. People say that this desert has no end and demons and terrible monsters live in it. They say that many commercial caravans that decided to pass through this desert never returned and got lost in this endless desert. People called this desert the desert of death of Nazareth. But these rumors only made me more attracted to this infamous and mysterious desert. I hate normal and boring life and I always look for excitement, although sometimes this desire for excitement is dangerous and causes me trouble, but in my opinion, sometimes it is worth taking a risk. Although I had heard many bad rumors and compliments about this desert, I decided to adventure in this desert because of my courage or stubbornness. So I gathered my necessary things and then bought a camel and started my adventure on the camel in the desert of death of Nazareth.

But I never thought that I would get lost in this desert. Ellie and I have been wandering in the desert for two days now..... Ellie was the name I decided to put on my camel, I thought it was a beautiful name. I was sure that I had brought a compass with me, but when I rested last night, after I woke up in the morning, my compass had mysteriously disappeared!! I searched all my things, but I couldn't find it, there was no way, and I didn't know the way back. The food and water I had brought with me was running out, so I decided to continue my way through the desert to maybe reach a pond or something like that. The weather was hot as hell and the burning sands of the desert were covering everywhere. Everywhere I looked, all I saw was sand, as if this damn desert was really endless. I was drenched in sweat and very thirsty. "I'm very thirsty, I'd better drink some water." I took out my water bottle and asked to drink water.

"What?!.....Oh no, damn it, we ran out of water!" Our water bottle was empty and we had no more water. After some time I cursed myself for deciding to start an adventure in this desert, I got tired and since we had no choice, I decided to get on Ellie and continue on our way. Let's hope that a miracle will happen and we will find some water in this burning desert. We had been moving towards nowhere for several hours. I had almost lost hope and thought that I was going to die of thirst in this desert. I was slowly passing out from thirst when I suddenly noticed a small pond. At first I thought it was just a mirage, but I decided to get a little closer and when I got closer, I realized that it was not a mirage. I couldn't believe that we were saved.

I shouted with happiness and got off Ellie and went to the pond, it was a green and beautiful place. As soon as I reached the pond, I took out my water bottle and filled it with pond water and drank from it. When I was dying of thirst, the taste of this water was the best taste of my life. I was very happy because I knew that we were saved and we were not going to die. I decided to rest there tonight because it was almost getting dark. After resting for a while, I noticed a black snake that was approaching me, and suddenly it jumped towards me, and I caught the snake in the air and threw it. I was a little scared at first, but then I kept calm. I found a big stone and lifted it and when the snake was moving towards me again, I threw the stone on the snake's head and crushed the snake's head and killed it. After killing the snake, I felt proud and because I had little food with me, I decided to cook that snake and eat its meat. It was really delicious, maybe I will have to try snake meat again later. After eating dinner, I felt tired and slowly fell asleep.

Until I woke up in the middle of the night and a strange sound and whisper caught my attention, the sound was coming from behind one of the sand dunes. It was a stupid thing to do, but I decided to go to the source of the sound and see who or what this voice belonged to. When I reached that sand dune and walked slowly behind the dune, I saw a water well behind that dune, I thought to myself why there should be a water well in the middle of the desert. I was in these thoughts when I suddenly noticed a large and stout creature approaching the well from a distance. I quickly hid and looked slowly, and after seeing this scene, my blood froze in my veins.

A humanoid monster with a scary face and ram-like horns with a goat's lower body and a stout human upper body and yellow skin while holding the half-blooded body of a human in its hands. That creature threw the half body into the well. I was scared and didn't know what to do. I tried to keep calm and move away very quietly but suddenly my foot stepped on something and slipped and made me fall and that creature heard the sound of me falling. I got up from the ground and went to I looked back, that horrible creature was standing on top of the sand dune and was glaring at me. "Dirty human, you have disturbed the desert ghoul, I will kill you, I will tear your flesh to pieces with my teeth, crush your bones and bathe you in your blood!" Suddenly, the creature started running towards me, I started to run away from him with all my might, while I was running away, the sound of the horrible screams of that creature shook my bones.

I suddenly remembered that I had a knife in my bag and I could defend myself with it. I went to the pond with all my speed and that horrible creature was running after me and screaming. I finally managed to reach the pond and my knife. I tried to take it out of my bag, but that creature also reached me and punched me and I was thrown. My chest was in a lot of pain and one of my ribs was broken. I tried to get up when suddenly the creature grabbed me by the throat and lifted me up. I regained consciousness and plunged my knife into the creature's right eye. I pulled out, the creature screamed in pain and let me go. I also took advantage of this opportunity and went to his back and jumped on him. He tried to knock me down from his back, but I resisted and then I plunged my knife into his throat and then tore his throat. Suddenly, that creature grabbed me with he's hand and threw me, I fell on the ground, and that creature took a few steps towards me While blood was pouring out of his throat, and then fell to the ground.

I was staring at the lifeless body of that creature for a few seconds when suddenly the flesh of that creature's body started to melt and after a few seconds the melted flesh of that creature evaporated and only the skeleton of that creature remained and its black bones were visible.

The sun was almost rising and I had to make sure that the creature was dead, so I approached the creature and saw my knife embedded in the creature's neck bone. I tried to pick up my knife and when I touched it the creature's skeleton turned to ash. I got a little scared and went back, but then when I was sure that the creature was dead, I took my knife and went back to the pond. Now it was morning, I decided to take a look at that water well again, so I went to that sand dune where. As I was walking up the sand dune, I realized what had caused my foot to slip.

I saw a bloody and severed human skin lying on the ground, perhaps it belonged to one of the victims of the same terrible creature. I climbed the dune and then reached the water well and when I looked inside the well I was faced with a terrible scene.

The well was full of bloody and dismembered human corpses, humans who fell prey to that horrible creature. It seems that this well was his food storage and he used to store his hunts here. A bad smell is coming from the well, I was almost sick. Suddenly I saw a shiny object in the well. It was a stupid decision, but I decided to enter the well and see what it was. When I entered the well and pushed aside some corpses, I saw a shiny arched sword with a golden handle. I know who the previous owner of this sword was, but he was probably dead, so there was nothing wrong with me using this sword.

I took the sword and came out of the well. And when I looked at the sword more closely under the sunlight, I noticed that there were strange writings on its blade. But, I didn't think much of it, I had to keep going so I headed back to the pond and my camel Ellie. And after I collected my things and took some water from the pond, I got on Ellie and continued my journey towards nowhere. I was thinking on the way, what was that terrible monster? Maybe the rumors that people say about this desert are true. But I had no choice. If these creatures really roam the desert, it was not wise to settle for a long time next to one of their food storages, so I had to continue my journey in this cursed desert so that maybe I could finally find a way out of this desert, who knows? Maybe I could discover the hidden secret behind this desert.
