Chapter 791: The Darkest Plane (20)

Arpious couldn't shake the feeling of being watched. The silhouettes of dark creatures occasionally appeared in the distant fog, their shapes indistinct and menacing. Some seemed to be massive, hulking forms that moved with a slow, deliberate grace, while others were smaller and quicker, darting through the underbrush with predatory intent. Their eyes glowed faintly, piercing through the fog and creating an unsettling sense of being surrounded by unseen predators.

The swamp was a hostile, treacherous place, and Arpious knew that she would need all her skill and vigilance to navigate its perils. Her journey through this dark, foreboding landscape would test her resolve and her strength, but she was determined to press on, to face whatever horrors lay hidden within the mist.
