Bab 440: Two Dogs, One Teen

When Silent Light entered the cave where Astaroth had told him to go, he was expecting a natural cave, with tunnels and the such. He hadn't expected ruins of what used to be a village.

As he walked further into the cave, he rapidly noticed the gaping maw of a chasm, where a destroyed house lay to the side. He could sense the evil coming from in the pit and knew that was his query.

But just as he reached the edge of the hole, a growling noise came from his left. Soon enough, a second one came from his right, as well.

Turning his head slowly to each side, he saw two dog-looking monsters, fur-less, with wrinkled red skin dripping with blood. Silent was unsure if it was theirs, or the blood of a fresh kill.

Their small bodies oozed of red mist, as they stepped closer, slowly, in a menacing way. Silent Light could hardly move in any direction without either falling into the pit or heading right toward them.

The dogs were already closing in on him.
