Chapter 1 - Chapter One: The Beginning

There were three people on horseback, walking in the desert looking for something. One of them, Miguel, saw something crawling in the distance. And Miguel said:

"Do you see what I see?"

 Blossom replied

"I think I see something there... It looks like a rock. Are you sure that thing is moving?"

 Balor said

"Whether it was a man or a rock, we will lose nothing... Let's go."

 The three approached, and each step made the scene clearer... And uglier. The three of them went forward to see if what they saw was a rock or a person. When they got to him, they discovered that he was a man, not a rock as they thought. Miguel looked at him and said to himself:

"Oh.. This man is almost dead. Looks like a zombie... His lower body is non-existent, he crawls with one hand, his face is almost eaten, and his skin is pale."

 Miguel took his gaze away from the man, and looked behind him and found a city. He said to himself:

"Hmm... What did he see inside that city? And what turned it into this form? This man seems to have crawled out of that city. I'm curious... What's in that city? And what brought him to this situation?

Blossom got off her horse and approached him fearfully, saying:

 "What happened to you? And why does it look like this?"

The unknown man answered her

"An hour before you arrived, a strange woman came into town. The inhabitants of the city know each other well, and visitors from outside the city rarely come to us. We weren't bothered by it, we were happy with new people coming. But no one expected this day to be the worst day of our lives. This woman began to show her malicious intentions... She used black magic to turn humans into semi-dead... Bodies that move unconsciously. Some of them retained a small part of their consciousness, a few like me retained it.

The man did not finish speaking, as Miguel killed him. Blossom shouted at Miguel

"Why did you kill him? Why?!"

 He answered her with a cold smile

He was very talkative... I don't want him to spoil surprises."

 Balor laughed in a muffled voice:

"I like your soul, Miguel."

 The three continued on their way to the city. When they arrived, they found the guards dead.

Blossom said:

 The guards died of bacteria... You know who's going to be killed like that, don't you? 

Also?"

 Miguel looked at Blossom with a smile, and then said:

"I think ... Yes, I know who it is." 

And the three entered the city
