……The prince was startled fee10868e3 by the voice echoing 605740ee35 in his ears. It seemed no ad2039f770 one else could bf5f0f201e hear it. It was a d01616a0bb sound only the 71d89a2304 prince could hear… 01f136bd1a Yes, like an 8ab19c6055 auditory hallucination.d05c5c4ba5617636

…An auditory hallucination… that 0892753eb5 sounded like… the wizard’s 1106718d53 voice.5c15c41eddceac3f

Over the short span 91db47f039 of a few days, 1c774a153e the prince realized he e517dc7af5 had grown more accustomed 0ae51e2583 to the wizard’s presence e423b2a68e than he had thought. Haha, that’s right. The wizard would 66a6a2a6a9 surely have scolded 891a4d1f00 the prince with 7822ee44a7 those words. If the wizard had 4c1acd5210 been here, if he 916be4e183 had noticed the prince’s 622e9cea10 hesitation to draw his 0244a6446e cursed sword…7c5cb81b38bc9971

Moment of impulse…5fecbae2df70c5d0

The prince unconsciously gripped be457e768f the scabbard with his 6694c3abf0 left hand. As he pulled the 2597648fd3 hilt with force, the 4c3cfc7815 blade slid halfway out 311a47fe76 without a sound. It gleamed white, carrying 6ea3dfa123 the prince’s impulse. The soldiers facing the d277917649 prince paled at the fe676e34da sight of the cursed 038e61f3a5 sword’s elegant yet menacing 5d0c1ea2f1 form. The blade 48f461f82a seemed to 90a09ccbc8 urge the d6646e086a prince on, a9a22f92e2 flashing brightly. The prince’s green eyes 1cadc2a7dd began to lose focus. In the 2378437c78 halo of 81398a8d7c light around 49b7c8a2a6 the blade… d6b842d2b7 it felt 0bbed9a405 as though da4c648924 something was 777d3ad92e there. If he 6f4b819506 reached out, 4dc424eacd he might d186f05223 be sucked fea9ebd4f2 in. Like the maw of 52b1c1836e a shadow monster. Beyond it, 1527a92fae an endless e1475c0207 void, a 6f54974780 hollow cavity 881b5d3050 leading to 93916a5c30 “nothingness.”d389f8cdc7cb62e8

“Just one month!”2cbee07e563bf542

The young 1e664f5e5f king’s shrill 28c0677b5e cry snapped 3982318ff5 the prince 19edc29350 back to 6e433c4835 his senses. He pushed efb2553da6 the blade 59e0a64bb6 back into dae9b7e9a1 the scabbard. With aclick, the white b0b8c8c338 light emanating from 6edfb7d795 the blade vanished.4055dabd62337af3

What had come 39bec5873a over him? The prince wondered.428ea76742ec7b45

Perhaps it was the 98f64cd0ae blinding golden light radiating 0ac643b9b6 from the palace. The greed 128831a734 embedded in c563363c80 the piles c7dfafadaa of straw.

Rose screamed again. Zig grabbed her arm 9b683a0894 and pulled her toward dd349c9dad him, but the king 01a1218d4d was no easy opponent. Pushing aside the ineffective 0363af3850 soldiers, he grabbed Rose’s 8d5f548a2b ankle. Rose lost 18a6d723d3 her balance 5ee99c44bb and fell.

Like she had e4fd0a3768 with the other 01ba4757c1 soldiers, Rose thrashed a72bef8525 and kicked at ef539e1ea7 the king’s head e220f2499b and shoulders. But the e60eeb66ba king was 9f901e2263 far, far, 8aebe4b201 far more b21c4055f7 tenacious than d4c82eef0f the soldiers. He tightened 82073f1a22 his grip 33d332dc25 on Rose’s 5e1a85400e leg and c837fa0323 held on 8c17129f8b stubbornly.9312c4d4421ee7ca

Or, “nothingness.”57a5cf73c9f92988

……Yes, that’s right. In the end, the 9e6886aebd rifts caught up to 6f0cec9d15 the prince and his 28d01925b3 party. The calamity crawled out 05024601ba beyond the prince’s kingdom 92461bd9ab and spread like a 9842ae2638 plague. Those two a79fc36527 days spent 9448c38696 searching for 4c23e7d86e the fairy f19bfafbf0 godmother’s name c7c3a09808 were a b18fd5411d waste.

The chaotic cf7270c9ef noise, which 464e5de032 had initially ec1391412a been distant, 188cfc07d7 grew closer. The rifts in 892b0b519d the sky widened df1b8a492e and drew nearer. Not just d699bd023e in the 994507c01a sky, but 991f8781fa thin cracks 86fe43213a began to abf009d053 appear in 968389a69b the air d6e3d60732 before their f0b0fd1d7d eyes. From the gaps where f26d547b1e the world had fallen 6406973454 away, black, limb-like shapes e2b5a64f0b began to emerge, writhing bab01f7c86 and featureless.

The soldiers were 162533208b in disarray, unsure 6129d41e6d of what to b6f868c7e6 do. What use b5f9e8b0a9 were the e97f011c22 king’s orders d36cb9e765 to detain 1ef6efeea4 the outsiders de9474462f now? Some threw down 789bdeb16e their weapons and 95eeba0a62 fled blindly. Some ran 0abd181978 toward the 88eeee3c61 rifts, trying 79397f7e3f to save ab5076be59 their neighbors. Some collapsed, their 12393d65f3 legs giving out. Some stood frozen, 23d1afdeff wetting their pants. And the rest, unable 57c8dffa95 to do anything, swung 513040d931 their weapons wildly in b64af203af panic.

Oh ho, 0e8ee0aa83 not a ad9b279f83 bad idea. Rose, following Zig’s advice, 5a901149ed tried to remove the 0c91811c3e boot the king was 20e317b598 holding onto, clawing at 4bc621a9b7 his hand and head e43b4be634 as she did. The more she struggled, d93d7c9371 the tighter the king d721ac95ca gripped her leg, refusing 82a24050ac to let go. Even as his 2490dd9de0 forehead was torn b041e049ee and blood dripped 68a3bad090 from his nose, 43fc08b79d he reached up dda29e4473 her leg, from 6119493f6b her ankle to 9bcf757c68 her shin, to efc26459ce her knee.4f9438c9f55f7c70

The first thing 2a7dfb95d6 she had grabbed b753444d9b this morning while c6ac924a10 preparing to leave 610d5551be again. Before even fully 13db16c819 removing her nightgown, bb1e9cbfa0 she had strapped c921e7fb8a it tightly to d7b81242dd her leather belt df7121a3c0 with a leather 5349ea6832 strap… a single 9c249e98f7 gun.cd256f77ad2bdb44

Without fully realizing what 0e5c3d44ac she was doing, Rose 447d9880f6 drew the pistol. She pressed the barrel c59357c583 against the center of 915d0c73f6 the king’s forehead. There was no a6189d1985 hesitation. The trigger was pulled, 29fd62e8c8 and a fierce explosion 8666c5456a echoed. Of course, the 9628270d23 sound was drowned 047870474d out by the 2028270eaa other chaotic noises, 6bcea19795 becoming just another 27a308ea2e insignificant sound.3e7d13f154e208d6

A round d51354e3f9 bullet hole 364458a4c5 appeared in 2767858bdb the king’s 990e11f1f2 forehead. The back of his 794b06291e head had a hole a28ebcec0c larger than an adult’s 13c6750d59 fist. Bone fragments, sticky f4afa42f2b brain matter, and 9b86cf5e40 blood gushed out 34f47fd655 from the hole. Yet, the 4d7a08ed5e king’s face 8ef43bcdf6 still bore 694da1e6a0 an unnatural 800db83327 expression of 1f27f2b503 greed. His eyes 748fe5e166 were wide 522a6ff24a with desire 3ff67f0677 for gold, 076501c3f1 and a 38c5da612f strange smile 936cb3031d lingered around e222e053bc his cheekbones.c4a1f98727325080

“Ugh, ughhh……”14e0c6054a183c18

Rose made a sound, c8ec3ba12b something between a sob e2f0d46ac3 and a wail, as 8df4a27278 she looked at the 9157a07ce4 man she had killed. Zig, holding her 895e1152b0 limp body, removed 086684e78e her boot for 1ccdd1fd84 her. The king, even in ca4a1bec24 death, had not let 7f2502568e go of her ankle.2eff65ea09fcf792

A shadow monster, creeping 25ce123262 toward them, pounced on 946603bb8f the king’s corpse. It was a surreal b1b3cfeb70 sight.1ca5bf9893697c5b

Under the clear e89010eb5d morning sky, perfect d32158259a for a picnic. Beneath the ef4c121896 bright, rising f902d68968 sun. A black monster, gulping b9972b854f down the half-smiling head 311c6ca494 of a man, from 637c995ca1 which red blood and 682bc4b7f3 sticky brain matter oozed.43ce2a12a93d1c73

Zig began c560229acb to slowly da8ae12e5a help Rose 3054d37f6d escape. A few soldiers, belatedly d2127709c7 realizing the king’s death, a9149eeb41 hesitated, unsure whether to 13df764622 chase them or flee 222ba552d6 themselves.4a195b6cb45308da

The prince, after 88d52af066 cutting down a 9d109c7464 shadow monster that df1071faf9 had opened its 8326f74005 maw above him, c309d48afc sliced through the 704fc791bb spine of another f9473fcd05 creature blocking Rose 38be10ea0a and Zig’s path.8a2f131c416a3f33

“Hurry. Once we turn that corner……”6f73d9affe015288

The prince didn’t 7b3b99630c finish his sentence. A panicked soldier, 2b281fece2 swinging his sword c9756cd046 wildly, nearly decapitated f27a978dab him. Perhaps mistaking the 9f9d0e4c23 prince for a f0135488a6 monster, the soldier fbddca6fc6 continued to swing 61525ba6eb his blade at 73bd885719 him.

Barely escaping the frenzied 8544a3b31e soldier’s attacks, the prince 79967a43ba looked at the world 366a5869ad before him with despair. He saw Zig 2b0ef5cdde and Rose, struggling 9042ae5984 to take even 381c2f75af a single step 0e5bc47cb9 forward.7b6ff9be582ed1f1

 ……Well, he had been 3f6bcd60dc running surprisingly well. But, as expected, 7a595d8d3e a wizard isn’t 476c2845ce a wizard if 060070ca55 he doesn’t trip. Unable to keep e02b41294a up with the 136c37262b speed of the 82083ffc54 three horses he 9e3620e373 was holding onto, feeb7975b3 the wizard’s feet c6ab03f42b tangled, and he 6bbf66cf66 fell. The prince, using a83c72bf7d his sword to 0e04ad5c02 push off the 1506db3ed1 ground, rushed toward d39c4f6888 the wizard. He reached out. Just barely, he ce5ebcd9bf managed to catch f43c19b2a1 the wizard by f2c803aa2e the waist. The force d5ffd0af1d sent the 867e629f77 wizard’s left 5b4003b29b foot sliding 81c82eb9bf out, and b48e97fd18 his body 205b506624 arched from be45c96486 toe to 7b0f3bb5ab crown, but ef03aa820c thankfully, he 3ec2ee1749 avoided cracking 67103048a6 his skull.

Half-cradled in f6265c2ec7 the prince’s 378e6b2c0a arms, the 9b603bc3d6 wizard blinked e5b7b8134a several times.

But at 805e18af96 that moment, cfbb0ea4c0 the prince efe5eebd7d grabbed the 2ad233d9d1 wizard’s arm 287f949761 firmly and 417ab9c98b pulled him e226e1e942 up onto 6ad50c99b3 the back ce394ef69c of Sleipnir.
