He was there alone, crouched, hands hugging his knees while he cried his eyes off. Ears still numb after the loud click sound. He had trouble breathing the more air he inhaled, it was contaminated with violet dust. A few seconds have passed, he began feeling strong stomping vibrations coming from all around him on the ground. On the horizon he witnessed hundreds of horrific beasts, some had horns, some wings, others both, but they definitely all looked eager to feast. The little kid panicked, he got up, and peeked anxiously in ever each direction, really fast hoping to find and escape. His hands were trembling, his voice shaking as he implored his creator some, and called his mother some. The beasts were now a few meters away. He crouched again put his head between his knees and covered the whole with his arms. "I'm gonna die, i'm gonna die, i'm gonna die..." He cried repeatedly to himself as he strived to breathe. Those echoing words resonated loudly in his mind, that he began imagining his nostalgic joyful days with his mother. Fading memories of her feeding, playing, teaching and holding him. A last grasp of his beloved, away from the calamity he got involved in, while he waited for his inevitable fate. ... Suddenly, it all went quiet for a while. He raised his head and opened his eyes. He saw a demi-man demi-demon wearing white clothes, with blue lines and a hood over his head from which a horn protruded out of his left forehead. The borderline between the demon and the human side glitched, each was striving to take control of the rest of the body. The kid then looked around him, dead fiend corpses were laying on the ground. his clothes now sullied with blood and guts from the dead things. The wight then extended his hand palm up to the kid, inviting him to grab it. Which he hesitantly did. He then walked behind the demi-human who said: "Hush, hush boy, Ecclector is here now" in a rather assuring yet cunning modulated voice.
