The murky darkness still had its hold on me as i start to regain bits and pieces of my consciousness. Light slowly pierces my vision as i slowly regain the colours of the world around me. What welcomed me was very different from what i imagined to see once i open my eyes. The bloody hell that was once here was no where to be seen, and the plains where covered by grass in all its entirety. I stood up bewildered at the sunset in front of me not thinking about anything else for the moment.

'Well that's weird. How long have i been unconscious, if the remnants of the fight are nowhere to be seen.', what was weirder was that i felt surprisingly light for someone who had been stabbed twice..... 'Oh..... wait..... Why am i alive??? Shouldn't I be for all intensive purposes dead i mean i was stabbed in my heart.... so what the fuck....', I tried to move my hands and what welcome my sight was terrifying. My right arm become bones.... Just bones no flesh, no muscles, just bones.'WHAT?!!?'I start looking at the sky,'God, this is a dream, delusion... Yes, it's my mind that's playing tricks on me.... I will look once again and my skin will be there..3....2....1....' as I looked down on my feet i see.... bones.....' Fuck, what the hell, how the fuck am i alive....Shit, what's wrong with me.', and then i remembered my vow in the void. My anger, my pride, my family, my world, and all that's been wronged by those who came, The Chosen race.

'Right i chose this path.... but seriously.... why a skeleton... a feeble creature that i would have no trouble killing when i was 18. Am I to kill those who slay dragons as a skeleton?' as i pondered my predicament and how my new body will fare in my task of extermination, I see shadows in the forest moving, and slowly appearing out of the forest. A group of wolves slowly towards me, at first i became scared but that didn't last long as i remembered the words of my superior back in Salit 'Shade when you encounter two species of monsters run away, monsters do not attack one of it's kind even if it's of different species' those words game me strength as the group came within five meters of me. I raised my hand to welcome them and said....

“ ...................” As i tried to make sounds, a thought suddenly dawned upon me. 'I can't speak...WHAT THE FUCK!!!', I was panicking as i could not utter a single letter, let alone a sentence, but that had to wait as the wolves came very close to me without making a single sound, and were close enough that i could pet them. While thinking of my superior's words i did what any sane person would do in my situation, I extended my bony left hand towards the closest wolf with the intention to pet the adorable wolfy.

* crack *

Before i realized what happened, the sweet wolfy that i was about to pet bit off my whole palm and started to chew on it rather content, all the other wolves saw his expression and then looked at me with eyes saying ' Me too, me too' as they stared at the bones that make up my new existence. 'That's my cue to leave.' without a second thought i turned in an opposite direction, I used my entire might to muster every single bone i had and rushed as fast as i could widening the distance between me and the wolves .... or so i though because once some time had passed and i entered the forest, i slowly turned around to see if i lost those diabolical puppies while not losing speed, only to be greeted by wolves that sprinted in my direction avoiding obstacles while keeping up with me,'FUCKKKKKKK' I turned my head back to see where I am going and tried to go even faster, ignoring the fact that a pack of fucking monster wolves was trying to catch up to me.

I spent, what seemed like an eternity, rushing through the forest and then i realized, i didn't feel very tired, in fact i wasn't tired at all. 'At least this new body doesn't get tired easily' I thought trying to encourage myself while still running like a mad man through the forest. Suddenly i see a shadow walking to my right, 'No.... they are still here....' , and I made a slight change in my trajectory towards my left while keeping pace. Another half an hour later i came out of the forest only to be suddenly greeted by lack of ground and a loud....

* splash *

' Wha.... is this water?' realizing my sudden change in environment, I started to swim, or at least tried to, as I made movements water simply went around my bones and did not give me enough force to propel myself forward and i started to sink like a rock. This was rather scary as my number two 'Worst ways to die' was to drown, by the way No.1 was death by psychotic killer. I sank, sank, and sank but i couldn't feel any problems and then i realized how stupid i was, 'OH right i am only bones... Why would i need air... sheesh, its those stupid wolves, ever since that stupid beast bit my palm off i stopped thinking straight.', so i waited for what felt like few minutes after which i finally hit the bottom of what seemed like a lake, and i started to walk towards the shore. Unlike swimming, this experience was new and annoying as i had a hard time to propel myself forward as well, but was still making a decent speed, one which could only be achieved by a lazy ass turtle.

After I reached the shore, I swore to myself to never again go inside a lake... or an ocean. I sat down on the grass right next to the water and started staring at the ripples that i caused while emerging from the water. Slowly the ripples died down, and were replaced by an unknown silhouette sitting on the grass. This monster stared at the water that was reflecting his own gaze, white bones made up most of what could be seen, red glowing balls were placed in his eye sockets, and in place of his heart there was something.... It looked like a swirling ball of pure darkness, or maybe just a black rock stuck in my ribcage. I tried to grab this ball, but my bony fingers went into the ball rather than touching it. 'Swirling ball of darkness it is.' i thought to myself while trying to reenact sighing, as i could not even do such a simple thing in my current state.

I then proceed to lie down on the grass and sleep, because i didn't have a better idea, but to my dissatisfaction, it seemed i did not require sleep in my current body. I sighed in my thoughts, stood up and proceeded towards what seemed like a small mountain on the other side of the lake. Once i got there, I walked along it's width simply because i had no better option of how to relieve my boredom, as i was right now pack of wolves can have me for dinner, a chosen one could probably just flick his hand to obliterate my existence. After a few uneventful minutes i stumbled upon an opening in the mountain, it looked like a cave, and inside of it seemed ominous, but although it looked bad, my mind was, for some reason, extremely happy, and urged my to enter and explore the cave. Having nothing better to do, I followed my instincts, and entered the cave without a thought.
