Tch! Why can't that stupid squid understand that there is a balance." Error clicked his tongues, eyes narrowed as he formed a portal to the Anti-VOID. "better get some rest while I can no doubt Those voices will be screaming at me to do my job." while stopping midway into the portal error thought about it why should he go back to the anti Void to listen to those voices scream at him. Changing his mind Error opened a random portal not caring where the destination will take him. With that in mind, he took a step into the portal.

Error landed softly on the ground. Only to be in shock at what he was seeing. Staring in shock this place was a dark, decaying, and depressing place. No doubt nightmare well love this place and he thought horror and Dust tale had it bad. Error thought as he looked around only to see a pathway leading him somewhere. With nothing better to do Error started to follow the pathway, Error could see what looks like tombstones lit by candles light on the edge of the pathway. Determined to see where this path leads him.

Error continues forward ignoring the ominous feeling. Telling him to go back and never return. It felt like hours but it was only a few minutes when Error finally stopped at a giant gate which he believed its called a Torii Gates, beside the gate there was a sign warning them not to enter unless they wish to be devoured by Tsuchigumo the Guardian of Yomi-no-kuni.

Even more curious Error enters the gates ignoring the sign altogether. Once passing the gates Error could only blink in shock as he stares at the atmosphere was perfect. It screamed beauty with every turn Error took. Quickly looking back to the other side of the gates only to see the same dark depressing place on the other side. It seems like it was like a portal to dissuade people from coming in.

He had no clue where he was, only that if he could remain for all eternity in this one spot he definitely would regardless of what occurred in the real world. This was where he wanted to belong.

Beneath his feet was a simple stone path that screamed of elegance and refinery. The path was lined with a small wall made of iron about as high as his ankle. The stone made no sound as he moved slowly forwards almost as if it were an illusion for surely something as beautiful as this land didn't exist in the real world of war, pain, and destruction? Of course not he must have been dreaming but he didn't want this dream to end.

Beyond the iron wall was a field of grass that had flowers scattered randomly throughout the land as far as the eye could see. All of the flowers were done in shades of red, orange, and yellow making the fields look almost alight in flame though no heat radiated from them. The colors clashed with the green of the grass making both stand out noticeably yet look perfect together at the same time. It was an odd combination that drew in the Destroyer's imagination.

Error blinked as he snap out of his daydream when he heard the soft sound of bells? There! There it was again. The sound was so soft it sounded like the tinkling of bells or chimes in the breeze. It was pleasant and he loved the sound. For some unknown reason it calmed his senses and he reveled in that.

Was that what he was craving? No that wasn't quite the feeling this sound gave him it was more contentment? Yes, he was content. But what was the reason for this sudden feeling?

The sound seemed to agree with him as he heard it again only closer this time tickling the back of his skull as the wind breezed by. He knew what this sound was. Sure he hadn't heard it in many years but he knew what it was.

The sound he was hearing was a giggle. Now though this sound was something he wanted to hear more of especially if he felt this relaxed but there was something hidden in the giggle that had him stalling.

Was it because the giggle sounded like something of a mythical creature attempting to lure in prey and trap it? He knew that wasn't it because he never dreamed about something insignificant.
