Grade 2 Gobtants

Silas could be seen walking down the deserted, debris-filled street, with Angelica walking silently beside him. The duo hadn't exchanged a single word since they were separated from the rest of their group. Silas's primary focus was on reaching the Realm's god chamber before anyone else could, and his goal was simple—eliminate the god. Angelica, however, was deep in thought, trying to muster the courage to ask a question that had been weighing on her mind for a while.

They continued forward for several long minutes in silence. Finally, the discomfort of the quiet grew too heavy for Angelica, and she decided to break it.

"Earlier today, I heard some students talking about something that happened last night," Angelica began, catching Silas's attention. "They said the crafter's body was found down in the alley. He was just lying there, dead, his body turned into this petrified husk."
