Skill Customize Creator System - Chapter 31 Resolution
Calebs eyes now opened with focused glint and the glaze subsiding, the moments which slowed like the trickle of oil on the ice, the rapturous cacophony caused by 1 singular word which reverberated through his being.
He realised he was lying on the ground, he could feel natures wet touch upon his body, he looked around groggily and watched with a sluggish repose, looking around it was as if during his rest reality shifted, the life which permeated the area died with the gems shattering.
Caleb reached out and touched a vine which turned to dust on his hand and was scattered to the wind.
He felt rooted from the earthen touch but as he felt this he felt unrooted in reality as if the skein of corporeal shattered and the lingering remnants of unreality have entered reality, he felt cold and shaken, thinking back he remembered how he for a mere moment was plunged into a roiling sea , how it was all-consuming oh how he clawed and struggled to the top in the inescapable depths,the reality he woke in moments but it felt like an eternity
Huddling himself inside the room faced with something unfathomable and esoteric he looked around like a cowed beast hiding in a corner.
“W ,W What was that” His voice stuttered in a sanguine chill
[A Revenant]
“A a and what the fuck just happend there ,t ,t tell me ”
[Your consciousness was invaded on entry into the corridor when your mind was invaded the astral link we share was cut off]
“We ….can be cut off”
[Yes , but never permanently as I am now as much as part of “you” as “you”]
Caleb breathed in the cold air feeling how his body felt rooted to the earth in its reassuring clutches, not that sea which he plunged into, it was as if his very soul took the same breath and with a knowing, he released the horn of his heart and the air whistled in the cold .
The world around was still and cold ,dead and silent ,he looked at the scene with a slowness ,he raised his head towards the window which was cleared from vines ,the colour of the suns slowly entered the ruins and as it penetrated through it gave Caleb comfort ,he lived another day
the early morning light roused the great forest and as it did the voice of nature’s life brought to life the unnatural silence became acalming ambience of live living.
Caleb breathed in and out watching as each breathdissipated into the cold, he though how each and every breath could have been his last, this was not like the dire wolves ,he could felt danger but never something that threatened his life but this , this was truly fearful, the unknown in this world posed a deathly reality and that unknown nearly cost him his life, for the next minute processing his experience and as he did the light lightened the room giving the decrepit room a new sight.
Looking around he could smell decay ,the end of life and renewal of the cycle of life had unpleasant smell ,he looked to where the gem lay and a gem azure gem now dulled lay on the floorstumbling up like a drunk man with legs giving way he slowly crept towards the remnants eyes blurring with movement.
Settling to focus the gem seemed to lay in a corpse as the horn was clearly going through its left eye socket, looking down at the gem and crouching down he looked at the gem in his hand now close to his face ,he could see a faint energy in the remnants like a swirling cosmos , but as he looked deeper into its depth it cracked and shattered into azure dust, as it did the wind scattered it like sand to the wind, Caleb watched as it caught the sunlight and glinted with his hand still flat letting the dust fly out now .
“I’m going to ask you again what was that”
