The Eventful Expedition

Page 72 - The Devil's Playground

The camera falls through the thick fog covering The Devil's Playground and onto our *clears throat* "heros" who are on the to save Kya Kingdom. The land is completely barren with no signs of life for miles. The smell of death floods the area along with a feeling of hopelessness and lost

The gang converses as they walk through the land.

Benny says, "To bad technology doesn't work in these areas. Would be realll convenient right now"

Devin trips over a branch. The group has a short laugh before continuing

Keifer asks Alex, "Hey I know it's been a few days but hows that hole in your abdomen?"

Alex says, "Well i was able to stop the bleeding a bit ago but now it feels like it's healing."

Keifer asks, "What?! How?!"

Alex replies, "Well the Sombro bloodline is darkness like the Negra Bloodline was. Since we're in one of the darkest places on the planet My energy is boosted immensely."

Keifer asks, "Huh seems legit."

Alex asks, "Now can I ask you something?"

Keifer says, "Go ahead."

Alex asks, "You know where you're going right?"

Keifer says, "Well kinda. I'm trying to go to the Kya Boarders but my mind is super cloudy"

Alex asks, "Huh?! What do you mean cloudy?!"

Keifer says, "I know the way we're supposed to go but I have a strong urge to go somewhere else"

Alex says, "Well you should ignore it and get us to the kingdom as fast as possible!"

Keifer says, "You ever had another presence in your head Mr.Prince? This shit isn't something I can just ignore."

Benny chuckles. Alex says, "Well we never really had to deal with the spirit world since we're royals. All the bloodlines do have a spirit animal but no one has been able to talk to one in a long time."

Keifer asks, "Really? So you're just born with your abilities?"

Alex says, "Well they normally awaken when we're about 5. Then we just train them up like anyone else."

Keifer says, "Alright well that's Karu energy but that doesn't clear up Adre."

Alex says, "Well it's an internal powerup, multiplying the users speed and strength with each level and granting skin hardening abilities at level 5 and high levels of energy and sensing at level 7."

Keifer says, "Oh wow. So why doesn't everyone use level 7?

Alex replies, "Because it takes away your ability to move for about a day once it wears off. It's a trump card essentially."

Keifer says, "Ah that makes sense, so since Adre is an upgrade Karu energy is the same then?"

Alex says, "Well yes but no. We get far more unique abilities based on our bloodline, but just because we have these abilities doesn't mean we're untouchable. In fact anyone with an enormous amount of Ansrit can fight against anyone since the three powers branch off from it."
