While Fiend Yuki went to sleep for his cultivation, and Saeflwyn was recuperating from her exhaustion there suddenly appeared a black tear hundreds of miles near where they were and then a thunderous boom that quickly followed shaking the ground miles around which startled Saeflwyn awake, but Fiend Yuki slept through.

Quickly checking on Fiend Yuki, only to see him asleep again, Saeflwyn left the house and flew above the treetops in the surrounding area only to notice nothing. As she was glancing around and not spotting anything Saeflwyn floated back down and re-entered the house to resume her meditation.

Little did they know, hundreds of miles away on the other side of a mountain there was a dust cloud nearly as big as it covering a nearly 10 mile deep hole that was nearly 20 miles wide, which destroyed the nearby wildlife and surrounding trees. Causing all the wild beasts, and creatures that lived nearby and still lived to flee in all directions causing a near horde like movement.

-9 hours later, as the sun rose into the sky painting it an reddish hue, Saeflwyn awoke from her meditation feeling refreshed and anew.

Peeping into Fiend Yuki’s room, and noticing that he was still asleep and knowing by now that it’s impossible to awake him, she just sighed and left the house drifting into the forest.

While Saeflwyn was drifting in the forest like a phantom, leaving only a dark shadow wherever she was, her eyes brightened as she noticed a rare prey that rarely ever appeared in this part of the forest, normally they were high up in the mountains, it wa s a Silverbacked Gorgoat.(Like a mix between a silver backed gorilla, and goat) swiftly killing and it and storing its body away into her spatial ring Saeflwyn quickly moved on.

Not even 5 minutes later Saeflwyn happened upon another beast that should’ve been in the mountains which was a Snowy Bicornalope (like a white unicorn but 2 horns and instead of a horse body an antelope) which shouldn’t appear here. With puzzled eyes, Saeflwyn swiftly killed it as well and stored it away.

After that Saeflwyn started to notice that the trees were shaking, with leafs falling down. Placing her hand onto a nearby tree she closed her eyes and sensed around. What Saeflwyn sensed frightened her, it was thousands of beasts fleeing in her direction. Snapping her eyes open, she quickly turned around and not bothering with stealth any longer made a beeline straight towards her cottage.

Nearly halfway back, all of a sudden she felt a searing pain on her back and tumbled to the side. Saeflwyn was ambushed while she was rushing back by a Frozen Toothed Lion, which tore three wounds on her back which quickly frosted over.

Seeing that it’s strike was successful but didn’t kill its prey, the Frozen Toothed Lion slowly raised it paw that striked Saeflwyn’s back and slowly licked her blood off its 5-inch claws with a gloating look in its eyes, then proceeded to slowly circle her.

Being sneak attacked by the Frozen Toothed Lion, Saeflwyn angrily drew her eyebrows together and gave a slight harumph, slowly waved her hand which caused a crystalline sapphire blue rapier to appear, which she quickly snatched then thrust forward causing a faint blue beam to shoot forth tearing apart the Frozen Toothed Lion who’s smug face was not permanently frozen on its face in death.

Not even bothering to collect its corpse, Saeflwyn took a pill which caused her wounds to quickly heal, then continued to head towards her house.

Arriving at the building with no other sneak attacks happening to her, she dashed inside and quickly gathered all of her belongings leaving the hutt empty except for the sleeping Fiend Yuki, whom she placed on her back, and then quickly left it as if it never had people inside it if it weren’t for the lack of dust within.

Traveling for hours on end without stop, Saeflwyn arrived at another building which looked like a hobbits home, with lights flickering inside.

Arriving at the door she knocked on the door repeatedly, until she heard a angry shoat saying “I’m coming, you stinking bastard!”

As the door slowly opened was appeared in front of her was short humanoid creature that had whiskers growing off its face, and a long rodent like tail that dragged on the floor. It was one of the crossbreds between a high ranking beast, and human.

“Ah!” shouted the rodentman while his top lip was moving side to side like a rodents would at the sight of Saeflwyn.

Upon seeing him Saeflwyn without speaking entered his house, and placed Fiend Yuki on the table, then turned around and slowly started to recount what she sensed in the forest miles away to the rodentman. “There’s a beast horde coming this way, thousands strong we need to flee quickly. I came here to team up so it’d be easier to survive.”

Quickly nodding in agreement with her, the rodentman didn’t even ask question and just readily agreed with Saeflwyn as if what she said was law, and must be obeyed.

Scurrying away to gather all of his belongings, Saeflwyn turned around and gazing at Fiend Yuki’s face, blushing slightly while remembered the contact between them while she fled here. Slowly stretching out her hand, she brushed Fiend Yuki’s hair out of his face which got messed up on the way her, neatly putting it behind his ears.

Seeing these actions of hers the rodentman froze in his spot as he was about to call out to her, shocked at was he was seeing. 10 minutes go by while he stared dumbly at what looked like what looked like to him, a lover watching her beloved sleeping did he finally snap out of it. Backing away out of sight he made a little bit of noise before say out loud “I’m ready let’s leave now.” since he was smart enough and knew enough about the woman in front of him, he knew he wouldn’t live long enough to even see the beast horde.

Placing Fiend Yuki onto her back once more, Saeflwyn and the rodentman quickly left traveling in the opposite direction of the beast horde.

Meanwhile Saeflwyn was worrying about the beast horde, Fiend Yuki had his own worries because he was traversing in the dream realm unbeknownst to him the near godlike invincibility he had here while he slept.
