“We’re here!”

A loud voice notifying their arrival to a giant metal gate embroidered with drawings. Behind the gate, nothing. In front of the gate, also nothing. Around the gate for infinite miles, nothing. Only the gate is there, along with a rowdy bunch of peasant looking people, spanning around thirty to fifty people.

“Are you sure this is the right place, there’s nothing here”

“I’m sure as hell, but last time I went here, there were forests, mountains, you name it, in fa-“

A more pleasantly dressed man went in front of the gate

“Let us go men, today shall be the day we exact our revenge on him”

“YEAH!”

They all rallied and pushed the gate together. The gate moved slowly, showing its content, which was darkness. A few of them chanted light magic

When they all got inside, the gate closed by itself.

“I’ve got a bad feeling about this”

Sadly, that one concerned voice was ignored, as they were all too engrossed with their plot

“MARCH FORWARD!”

And thus they marched, not knowing where, only feeling cold winds and the changing grounds. Sometimes it went grassy, sometimes sandy, wet, dry, slimy, hot, cold, spiky, and many more.

This went for months, and months, eventually turned into years, years, eventually turned into decades, and so on.

“Are..we there yet?”

Though in Godhood, they needed to rest sometimes, but too afraid of what lurks in the darkness to rest.

They tried to change their route, but failed. At day 1, they sent 2 people to go back and check the gate, they never came back.

Day 3 was no better, they all went back, but no gate was found, only empty space. So they continued

“I think we’re in the wrong realm, this has got to be The Eater’s realm, I’ve heard that he likes to keep a bunch of stuff before devouring them”

“Stop it, you’re scaring us”

“I’m just telling my opini-“

“SHUT UP!”

“Okay okay”

After a few decades, they heard a giant booming sound. This repeated several times. Until they identified that they’re footsteps, huge footsteps.

“What the hell is that”

As they get closer to the source, they find a curved cliff. A big one.

“The noises must be up there, we’re getting closer!”

“Yay!”

They already forgot about their plans, they only wanted to get out of here.

As they climb the cliff, they noticed something was a bit off about it, it was a bit round, almost too round.

“Hey, doesn’t this reminds you of something?”

“Really, like what?”

“I don’t know, try flinging your light up there to see”

The ball of light slowly rose, illuminating the cliff. Trees were abound, a higher cliff was there, now showing that it was higher than the highest mountains ever existed, but the ball went up, up, up, until it was no longer visible. And the peak was still shrouded in darkness.

“Whoah”

“I just thought about it, why can’t I use magic?”

“Yeah, me either”

“I could only use weak spells”

“Me too”

“Me three”

They all figured that out now.

“Magic or not, we are all getting out of here!”

“YEAH!”

With enthusiasm, they climb the mountain once more.

A group of disfigured animals were in front of a gate. They’re currently inspecting the gate.

“This is the place?”

“Yes leader, our scouts have determined this would be ‘his’ realm”

“This gate’s the only thing you could find?”

“Yes leader, they reported there was nothing out there besides this”

“I see, could you try to find if there was any type of information on it?”

“We already did leader, it seems like drawings of strange creatures”

“Example?”

“A rocky figure, a long line with eyes at the end, some hideously drawn letters, a pair of eyes, and also many more”

“Hmmm….tell them to be prepared for anything”

“Your wish is my command leader”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Hey, why did you changed the place?”

“Hm? I felt like it was too vulnerable, so I designed it to be a bit more…different”

“We can’t get lost right?”

“Well, if you want to, you can, just tell me”

“Also, what happened to your experiments? Where did you put them?”

“They’re here, just not here”

“What”

“You’ll get it if you get lost”

Author's Note : Umm....I'm grateful for the reviews, but......how do I say this.....could you at least tell me what I'm doing right or doing wrong, instead of "You're getting a 3 stars just because that's how I like it"....or "You did so horrible but I'm not telling you what you did wrong". No hard feelings, you're welcome to do what you want, just my rant though.

As always, thanks for reading.
