Chapter 378: Trail of blood

We traveled through the forest for quite a long time. Yet, with the treetops hiding most of the sun rays away from us and our vision breaking past the area where one needed light to see at all... It was hard to actually tell how long did we march. 

Hours turned into minutes while seconds extended into entire weeks. And after an uncountable amount of time, we finally reached the end of the woodlands. 

"Woah..." I muttered when the constant brown barrier of the woods gave way to the massive open area of the field. It was all basked in the warm rays of the sun.

The patches of open land that appeared within the borderland forest simply couldn't compare. 

"We are here," I whispered, stunned by the sight.

It wasn't my first time seeing such an open space. In fact, it wasn't even that long since I last saw it. And yet, looking down the horizon only to see it merge with plains in the distance...

It just felt different.
