Two weeks later...


-


Two weeks had passed after Apollyon had seen the wanted posters with his face on them. He had quickly gotten Koa and Violet, packed up their wagon, and got them out of the City of Mosvil as quickly as he could. The trio were now traveling on their wagon through the wilderness, trying to find some sort of village to get some work and food. "So... Let me get this straight. You're saying you found a wanted poster with your face on it? Saying that you were charged with crimes of treason against the church and that anyone with you was a criminal as well?" Koa asked, looking to Apollyon who was driving the carriage.


"Mhm, that's about right. What I'm confused about is the fact that I've never done anything to church. As well as that, nobody from that religious cult has even seen my face nor knows who I am." Apollyon grumbled, looking to the road ahead as he drove the carriage. "The only people I've pissed off are The Razors when I saved Violet, and it's not like they're working with the church," He added on. Despite the fact he sounded like he was sure about that fact, he wasn't, he had seen members of The Eternal Church talking with members from The Razors in the woods all those days ago, as well as that, they were talking about Violet. Were they working together? Apollyon wasn't all too sure.


"It's certainly weird, we'll have to be careful when we are in the big cities. We don't want to attract any unwanted attention and risk having to deal with even more problems." Koa advised Apollyon who had no problems with that plan. While the two men were talking, Violet was sitting in the back of the carriage with her knees to her chest. She had awoken not long after getting back in the carriage two weeks prior, when she heard what Apollyon had to say, she couldn't help but feel worried for several different reasons. She didn't want to go back to The Razors but... She didn't want to see her friends get hurt.


Suddenly, Violet's stomach began rumbling, causing her to blush brightly and hug her stomach. Apollyon looked back at Violet before smiling slightly, "I think somebody is hungry." Apollyon spoke up, looking to Violet and then turning his attention back to Koa, "Do you think there is a village nearby where we could get her some food? I could really go with a bite to eat soon too." He asked. Koa tilted his head before bringing his hand to his chin in thought, "Sure, I think there is a village not too far from here. If we head west we should be there in an hour." He advised.


Apollyon nodded in understanding before looking back to Violet, "We'll get you some food soon, Kid. Just hold out a little longer, okay?" He called back to the young girl sitting in the back of the carriage. Violet looked over to Apollyon, nodding to his words and then looking forward again, holding onto her stomach.

Nature was always far more pretty farther it was from the cities, everything just felt far cleaner than it did where the majority of the population was. Animal populations were far greater further away from the cities as there weren't as many people coming out hunting them. The plant life was so beautiful as well, different flowers and plant life filled the forest.


There was a giant forest that wasn't too far from where the trio were, the trees were up to 80 meters tall, and not much light could get into them either but there was enough to be able to see. The forest was rather intimidating but... It wasn't so intimidating to everyone. Walking through the forest was... An interesting-looking girl she was tall, and by tall I mean... She was tall. Standing at 15 meters tall and walking through the forest on her own, wearing only green, patchy, ragged trousers on her lower half and bandages around her chest. She had an hourglass-like figure with a big waist and chest. She had semi-tanned skin with green eyes and dark red hair. She looked like she could be 20 years old as well.
