ARC 1 - STRANGER IN THE WOODS

The door to the balcony was opened to make the room cooler as the weather was getting hotter these days.

The breeze blew the curtains gently in the wind, and the night was quiet. Neither the sound of crickets creaking nor the frogs croaking could be heard.

Behind the translucent doors of the balcony in the room stood a creature. The moonlight on it cast a huge shadow on the ground.

Having a humanoid figure, this shadow stood tall way above the normal human height. Behind it was something irregular swaying on the ground seeming like a tail.

A pair of vertical golden pupils like that of a beast or reptile looked into the room staring at the sleeping young girl on the bed.

The shadow walked on the fluffy rug to the bed slowly in the silent night barely making any sound.

He stood by the bed looking towards the sleeping girl who he felt his soul calling out to.
