Shadow Slave
Chapter 1784
As they ventured further east, the Moonriver Plain started to change. There were fewer and fewer canyons in their way, and the air grew a little warmer. At night, the three beautiful moons seemed more distant.
The wind carried with it swirling black flakes. Rain did not need to touch them to know what they were… ash. It was as if they had returned to Ravenheart, but also different.
Back in the stronghold of Clan Song, the ash fell from the frigid sky because of the raging volcanoes. But here, it was somehow different, making Rain feel uncomfortable.
Eventually, the members of the survey team stopped. No one had given the command, but they simply froze in place, looking at the horizon in stunned silence.
«…Wow.»
Out there in front of them, far away… it seemed as if a snowy mountain chain was rising from the ashen haze. But as Rain studied the towering mountains closer, she couldn't help but feel a sense of incongruity. Because the shape was wrong.
Then, something clicked in her mind, and she opened her mouth in shock… or horror. Or awe.
The mountains weren't mountains at all. Instead, they were bones.
An inconceivably large skeleton lay on the ground in the distance, too large to be seen whole. What Rain had thought to be the slopes of a mountain chain were several titanic ribs, each rising into the sky like ivory pillars that supported its weight.
The skull of the unfathomable corpse was mercifully out of view. The closest group of bone mountains, however, extended far into the Moonriver Plain. It was also shaped strangely, consisting of five lower peaks. Beyond them, a wide ridge rose gradually to a great height, like an eerie stairway to heaven.
The five mountains were the phalanxes of the colossal skeleton's fingers, and the rising ridge were the bones of its arm.
One of the porters whispered quietly:
«G-gods…»
Rain remained silent, but she felt like uttering something like that herself. There were simply no words to describe her emotions.
Awakened Ray glanced at them and smiled faintly.
«Gods? A god, maybe. That is Godgrave ahead of us.»
The porters, who weren't very well-acquainted with the topography of the Dream Realm, looked at him in confusion.
He sighed.
«Godgrave is a Death Zone that serves as the north-eastern boundary of the Song Domain. It is a region of the Dream Realm where Great, Cursed, and maybe even Unholy abominations dwell. As for why it is called that… I think you can see for yourself. Nobody really knows what that terrible skeleton is, but it's easy to imagine that these are the remains of a god. Therefore… Godgrave.»
The porters shivered.
«Awakened Ray, sir… are we going there?»
