876 The Lifeforce

Way back where Krune's group had passed through...

"Once upon a time, long long ago." The man with the crown paused as he saw these words on the ground, reading it aloud.

"Interesting," he smirked while muttering, watching how the font used to engrave the words on the ground conveyed the feeling that the person who wrote it had been pressed for time.

The man with the crown then skipped over the words and continued to jog over the path, unconcerned if he could catch up to the people he was chasing after. 

"There lived a man fatter than fat and a woman thinner than thin." He read aloud the next sentence, smirking as it seemed strange. He wished to understand why his target had written such words. 

A kilometer later, the man with the crown came upon two arrow marks and another set of words, reading them aloud, "Follow the arrow on the left if you wish to read the fat man's fat tale. Follow the arrow on the right for the thin woman's thin tale."
