4 On the road

as the fight settled and the body no longer staining the snow beneath us, all that's left is the still air of the frozen land as spider mum walks over to the backpack putting it back on, and again starts to walk.

as time passes the day seems to repeat itself, eat get ready find a place to sleep dry clothes out next to the fire eat then sleep. Over and over again, and the worse part is she isn't talking to ME I cant work on understanding their spoken language here if she doesn't even talk to me. even me doing the cutest baby noises I could do only led to her playing with my hands and tail.

while we were resting around the fire in a tent made from a type of silk from what I can tell is her semblance and is to do with some type of web or thread. Pretty cool plus makes sense with her race, plus from the fight she had with the Grimm, I can tell these webs aren't any joke I won't get on her bad side.

we walked through a blizzard. well, she did as I slept in a bubble of silk that surrounded me making me feel warm and comfy as I slept knowing I was in no danger. oh, the bliss. weeks passed as the food started getting low leading to the travel time being cut in half most of the time was hunting down any food source.

while walking spider mum stops in her tracks taking her hand out from her coat as a spear starts to form leaning back as she takes a few steps forward launching it into the sky out of sight the speed of it makes me lose track of it a few times as it falls about 600 or so feet away it plummets into the snow as we keep on walking something seems to be getting dragged through the snow as a Solitas fox is pulled up like a fish on a hock.

this white-furred fox has a spear made of white silk with a structure that made it seem stronger than should be possible. but hey that's a semblance for ya, as she pulls the fox off the spear and starts to drain it of its blood as it's strapped to the side of the backpack. while the blood dripped onto the snow giving it color from its white canvas.

looking up into the cloudy sky in the distance breaking apart the clouds. 2 atlas airships huge in scale the same silver and black colors line its frame as it comes into view my mind taking time to fully look over the magnificent creation that civilization has brought.

spider mum again starts to walk... time flew as from what I can tell we have reached what we set out for. In front of us is a huge glacier forming tunnels hills rocks statues as this place looks like someone had taken a brush to it and painted it all from the scale and overall cohesion but it seems time had taken away from it as some bits have broken off and become deformed.

overall this place was like a wonderland something I had never seen before in my last life with everything melting away over time. spider mum starts to walk through this place where after 2hours we reach a tunnel leading into the ground showing the first piece of rock in this place

As we go deeper into the dark we reach what looks like an old broken down temple a statue of a multi-formed humanoid with deer antlers a bull's nose the legs of a goat and arms of a snake's body and the scales of a fish.

2 huge wings one feathered the other seemed bat-like. Spider mum *sigh* I need to find out her name as I was thinking this, she placed me down in front of this statute and gave a deep bow as she starts to light the fire pits lining the walls.

as each fire is lit the wall shows a mural of a large sea with a ship docking onto what looks like land with people with ears, horns, wings, tails anything I could think of was here as they seemed to follow this boat.

spider mum walked towards the mural and started to press the features of the people on the mural in order of horns claws tail wings eyes. as the mural seems to shake and dust falls from the cave roof as an opening is shown behind the statue.

Crawling into this tunnel it opens up into a large multi-roomed cave with a large room in the middle holding what seemed like a place of relaxation. With a large dining table with old art pieces lining the wall with a bunch of toys from rocking horses to wooden swords a few books placed on the table some still open.

Placing me down on the table spider mum starts to walk around letting all the fires. after a few minutes, she brings a large black bag from deep within the cave out as the smell of death fills the main chamber.

Looking away not wanting to see whatever is inside the bag I take my time to familiarize myself with the room giving time for spider mum to take care of whatever died down there. A few minutes pass as I'm brought into a small room with a crib as I'm given milk of some kind as spider mum starts to talk for the first time in days.

her words still mean nothing to me for now but her voice felt calming it brought feelings of comfort as she talks to me in a hushed voice I slowly fall to sleep with a full belly.
