Kapitel 1224: Second Night

They managed to reach the ruin before the ancient dead rose from beneath the sand. The structure they used as shelter was palatial and vast, isolated from the desert by a wide field of black glass. It didn't seem like a building that people were supposed to live in, though. 

After observing many ruins across the desert, Sunny was starting to feel as though there was a reason why all of them were so strange, broken, and deformed. It was almost as if these structures had not been built here… but had instead fallen from the sky and shattered after hitting the white sands. 

Then again, the Nightmare Desert might not have been a desert in ancient times. Rolling dunes like these were usually left behind by dying seas. If the vast expanse of white sand had once been the bottom of an ocean… then maybe the structures had not fallen, but instead drowned. 

Why would Ariel build his pyramid at the bottom of a sea?

Sunny shook his head.
