Three huge men come to the threshold of the forest of the "Borderline", the boundary between the Kysefin and Corporeal dimension.

The three men circled around the haversack of one of them. The one holding the haversack looks muscular with a tattoo on his left arm, a dragon biting its tail with marking or codes around it. The other two had it on them too but in different place, the thin, lean man had it on his left arm and the smallest one had it on the left side of his face.

"Shit. This is not the stolen core. Just gems." The muscular man grunted.

"Maybe the old man was lying, he's gonna pay for this." The smallest man scowled, ready to kill the old man he was pertaining.

"Easy fellas, He's an oracle, He can't be wrong, right?" The thin man pointed out.

A snort was heard on top of the tree before them. Their heads turned up in sync and vigorously checked out their surroundings.

"Who's there?" The smallest man raised his voice.

No one answered.

The muscular guy chuckled, "C'mon man, no need to be so nervous. As far as we know no one comes here in the Borderli-"

A silhouette, with a glint of violet eyes, thrust his hand through the muscular man's chest splattering his blood to its milieu.

The other two was astounded to what they've witnessed.

"One chimera down. Two to go" The silhouette whistled low.

The two transmuted themselves into beasts and vehemently launched to the silhouette. With a blink of an eye, the two chimeras were down. One managed to move a muscle, struggling to get away from the silhouette but the silhoutte aggressively pulled the man's head to face him.

"Time to talk. What about oracles?" the silhouette sneered.

Dubious Happenstance: Eriya's POV

Time passes by as I waited for the sun to rise. I sat through my window, eyes fixed on the horizons, thinking if I truly am a vampire that I'd burst into flames if I succumb myself to the sun's warmth. I sighed and glanced into back into my room.

The alarm of the clock went off. It was already 7:00 in the morning. I studied my blood covered room and scattered books, which I've been gathering data from, before I get to my senses to scram and get ready. I got a fit again last night and it's getting worse. I jogged my way down the stairs and grabbed my rubicund elixir when I heard the following news.

Another breaking news, last night, 3 dead bodies were found near the Kerfiom village. The bodies can no longer be identified due to severe damage the bodies had conceived. It was a brutal murder of...

"If you're looking for Kirstein, He hasn't returned since last night." Derek said, dipping his fingers to the salted chips I bought for myself. I kept a straight face, knowing he just wants to provoke me to entertain himself.

I turned around and head to the door.

"Don't forget to drink your vitamins, honey." A tone of sarcasm trailed off his mouth.
