The Forgotten God

Chapter 6: Lost

Okay, so I'm lost, I have an axe, I also have a useless orb which I believe is valuable, and I have no idea where to go. I have a really shitty sense of direction, I literally can't tell what way to go, so, knowing that I will go to my right.

Personally I don't plan on staying put, I need to be careful, funny though, its been like 3 days not counting the days of me unconscious in the forest and I have not yet met a monster. I would like to meet a monster, maybe play fetch with it, or pet it, it would be my horsey if I wanted to.

I have now been walking for a bit and I've had no encounters, but I did find a small creak, if I follow it, I could find civilization, or maybe a small watermill, if those exist in this world. So I did as I thought and went downstream to where the water went.

I started to feel hungry as some time had passed, I haven't had anything to eat, I wonder how I've held out so long. A while later and I started to have felt something staring at me, I felt weary, and yet I still kept walking.

Fuck this, I stopped everything I was doing and started to use Sphial, after a moment I was able to emit a shining ball on my hands. Honestly this is like my ultimate move, its the only thing I can make easily using Sphial so quick.

Now that I can see, I can walk easier, I still can't see through the fog though, the reason there is fog must be because of the cold surface, or maybe because there are more lakes around then what I would expect.

I came walking down the stream and saw a random wandering horse, with a carriage. The carriage had no lights on, even so I still went towards it cautiously. Taking each step as squished mud can be heard by each one I then stopped in front of the cart.

The horse was calm and didn't give a shit about what I did. I like this horse. I saw the door to the carriage was just a bit open, I was kinda scared a bit and hoped that nothing would attack me, but I still had a bigger curiosity then fear.

As I quickly dissipated the small ball of light just to not attract monsters or people of any sort, I pulled open the door to the carriage slowly, and looking in, there was a blanket. I am sure there's something under the blanket, because I can see it breathing, so I walked into the carriage and pulled the blanket off quietly.

To my surprise there was a child, to be more specific, it was a girl. She was soundly asleep, and she had a dress on, and she also had navy blue hair, I guess she is from nobility? But why would she be here? While investigating a bit more in the carriage there was a letter under a sheet of the same blanket.

I took the letter up and opened it and also took out what the content inside the letter was.

". . ." I quietly cursed, there was no way I could figure out what these words translate to, this also must mean that this girl is from another part of this world, or maybe she could have been abandoned.

As I looked at the letter once more I decided to take it and put it in the pocket inside my shirt. Fuck, if only I hadn't went the other way, I could've still kept all my stuff and bags.

This girl seems to be the only one in here and I am lost, so... What do I do? I don't know how to hunt, wait, ahh I remember very well about trap making, well I can't hunt but I can certainly make traps.

After thinking about my plans I got out of the carriage, I inspected the carriage in case the carriage could break while riding. The carriage seemed fine, and the horse was buckled up without a problem, the only problem was this girl, I didn't want to scare the girl, or startle her.

I went back in the carriage, and tried to wake her up, I lightly and gently pat her cheeks.

"Hey"(Dastin) I whispered
