Edited by Unseelie Nil: 9/6/2020 3:07:41 AMAll that matters is that you are here now, an old brick road before you with rays of early morning light piercing the twisted canopy above. Birds are singing, bugs are chirping, flowers are blooming, and you're pretty sure you just heard a scream in the distance.
-
[spoiler]im not getting notifications so I might disappear [/spoiler] *I try to go toward the scream*
-
Following the road towards the sound of the distant scream, you turn a corner to find large webs through the trees ahead...
-
*I cautiously approach*
-
The deeper you go, the more thick the webbing gets, and the darker it gets aswell...
-
*I breathe fire occasionally to clear the path.*
-
You emerge unopposed from the tunnel of webs as it burns behind you. A few large spiders the size of cats skittering off into the woods. Ahead of you lies a fork in the road. Both paths seem to lead in the general direction of the mountains.
-
*I go down the left path.*

Edited by Unseelie Nil: 9/7/2020 5:42:09 PMYou follow the road a ways and around midday you spy a plume of smoke rising ahead. You also hear something between a shriek and a roar...
-
*I make sure my revolver is loaded, then holster it and head for the smoke.*
-
You come upon the ruins of a camp. Three caravan wagons circle around a dying fire. There are bodies scattered about, and a large beast feasting upon one.

-
The beast turns to you with the large face of an owl upon the body of a bear covered in gray feathers in place of fur. It screeches and charges forward!
-
*I try to step to the side and shoot not with my revolver.*
-
One of its swipes misses but the other slashes across your leg! Your shot strikes its shoulder and it yelps!
