We must have been walking for who knows how long by now. but, the decayed grass didn't seem to end for miles.

We saw no civilisation and became slightly afraid as we couldn't find no wildlife

We became hungrier and hungrier as time blew by.

We got the rabbit that we were keeping and saw it was just rotten flesh. We forgot to keep it cold

We became more fearful as time became longer every waking moment...until...

We saw a small cabin in the middle of the large desolate field. We looked at each other, confusion could be seen on both of are faces. Then we looked in front of us

"What's a cabin doing in the middle of a large field?" Chrom asked

"Not sure" I pondered "What if it has food?" I asked him

"Unlikely, if we couldn't see any wildlife on are way here then it's almost impossible unless wildlife magically appears from beyond it" He answered

"What if they have cro-" I stopped mid-sentence realising that making crops was impossible due to the black clouds

"Should we look inside?" I asked

"No real point. It's probably abandoned" he answered

We began to pass the cabin until i saw something in my peripheral vision. Something impossible

I looked directly at and shook my head as I first believed it was a vision. But it was still there

I got closer to the cabin getting Chroms and began walking slightly behind me and then are mouths dropped at the sight of fresh tomatoes, potatoes, Carrots and several other fresh vegetables being grown in a small fenced off garden

It was nothing special. The wooden fences were big enough to keep wildlife from getting to it but could be easily stepped over for people to easily get to the fruit and veg

"What kind of illusion is this" Chrom said getting on one knee, he picked a fresh tomato and sniffed it then he bit into it. I saw his face change and he spat it out.

"Are you okay!?" I said scared thinking they were poisoned and merely a trick to keep people out of the house however Chrom wiped his lips on his hand and looked up to me

"I forgot how tangy they were" a sly smile formed on his face as he made me genuinely scared something he found amusing to do when this all started. He stood back up and he looked at the cabin and I did the same

We went to the door and I knocked on it

No response

I knocked again

No response

I knocked again and again

Still no response.

Then I turned the handle to the door checking if the door was unlocked and to my surprise it was and then the door slowly lowered its arm and allowed us passage inside.

I closed the door behind us and looked around to see a magnificent interior design. It took me by surprise at the craftsmanship, it must have took months to make. Whoever lived here treated themselves as a king of some kind.

Then as we continued to look around we heard the knob of the front door twist and it opened...
