“Anyways continue.”
Shin sweats a bit while smiling lightly and scratching his head;
“I guess we just need to teach you how to use it-”
-----------------------------------------
Back to our solarphel..
“ How long do we have to walk mim..”
“Remy. we JUST entered the nihil zone. It will take us 10 min to get to the village.’
Remy looks like he’s about to shed a tear, he looks over to solarphel admiring the view around him silently and asks;
“Solar does your feet hurt..?”
Solar looks back at remy confused
“N-no?”
“Hmh.. you’re so insensitive.”
Mim replies;
“No he's not, he's just not a whiney ass like you”
“THEN CARRY ME AND I WON'T HAVE TO WHINE.”
“No.”
Remy sighs and continues walking in pain for the last few min.
“Alright we’re here, where it all started..”
They stand by the cliff facing the village that solarphel was once in.
“And now we have to get down the cliff.. I might as well jump off.” remy sighed
Mim continues walking as if no one ever said anything and solarphel quietly follows behind, remy was dumbfounded. As he was about to follow them he heard some bushy noises coming from behind him, he turned around quickly to look. The sound seemed to get closer as Remy freaked out and took slow steps to the back before completely running away disturbed.
“Oh hey rem, needed some time to restore stamina?” mim chuckles,
“Uh.. i may have seen something-”
“reminder, We are in the nihil zone, anything is possible here so if i don't seem too surprised.. You know why.”
“ It's not about that!” remy yelled
“Then?”
As remy was about to speak mim interrupts
“Okay tell roan not me, let's focus on solar now”
Remy looked at mim annoyed and turns around mad,
“ So solar? Anything familiar?”
Solar turns to mim and then turns back and starts pointing in directions;
“I was worshiped there, i lived there uhh.. And that's where I woke up..”
Mim sighs; “ how about you retrace your steps? Show remy, I can't see by the way..”
“ hmm..” A quiet moment where solar stays silent and takes a few steps looking at the ground, “ i woke up here..” then moves to the center of the village, “ then i got worshiped here..” again solar moves to one of the village houses that was once where he stayed at “and then i got kidnapped and i stayed here for a few days” mim interrupts;
“Who's the kid and why did they nap?”
“Mim shut up.” Remy said straightforwardly.
Solar ignores them saying “ and then i saw a strange small pretty light and followed it” while proceeding to move up a grassy hill with remy and mim following.
Solar, straightforwardly said “ then i heard a big bang from behind me and the strange pretty light disappeared, by the time i came back to the village it was all gone and destroyed..”
Remy looks at mim and mim looks at the opposite side thinking that he's facing remy and then they both turn to solar.
“ soo.. That's all?” mim continues;
“How about we search the houses?, where was this house you were staying at?”
“Right there..?” Solar walks towards the house and both mim and remy follow behind.
They enter the house cautiously while it's pretty dark, Remy pulls a flashlight from his over shoulders fanny pack and turns it on, revealing the place completely destroyed, glass shattered on the floor, door creaking and chandelier almost about to fall off.
Mim and Solar look around freaked out, but mim with a confused and annoyed look with his hands covering his nose because of the distinctive smell.
Remy walked forward slowly looking around him, suddenly a scream came from behind.

Remy turned around with a surprised look, his ears going low as they can get.
“ MIM WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SCREAMING FOR?”
“ SOMETHING TOUCHED MY HAIR..”
Mim and Remy look over to a skeleton reaching out their arms.
“ seriously mim..”
Mim looks at Remy with a cheeky smile, giggling.
Remy rolls his eyes and continues to walk forward, they enter what they think is the dining room, with a broken table and papers all around it. Broken picture frames; some on the wall, some dropped on the ground.
Mim and Remy investigate alone, while solar stares at the ceiling thinking of where they once hid from the believers.
“Hey solar, do you know this guy?”
Remy walks to Solar, handing him a picture frame of a eyeless short figure with short black hair, big horns.
Solar takes the picture frame to look closely.
Mim leans in “ oh i know this guy~”
“Huh? Mim, have you met them before?”
“Nope, but i do know who they are”
“ i know them too..” solar said
Mim and remy look at solar;
Solar continues; “ they’re the one that kidnapped me from those people outside-..”
“ and then?” remy wondered
“ uhhh.. That's all- they made me live with them.”
“Do you know what happened to the people outside though?”
Mim interrupted;
“I'm pretty sure they went insane and attacked one another and caused mass murder.”
“And how do you know that..?”
“Because I saw it when I first found solar, there were blood trails almost everywhere. And.. uhh organs..”
“Ahh okay..” remy concerningly said but then realized;
“Wait.., how did you even see when you’re blind.”
Mim looks at remy mad saying;
“First. I'm not BLIND blind.
Second. I have a nose and I can smell.
THIRD. I HAVE HANDS TO TOUCH AND FEEL THINGS.”
“Alright alright... I just forget sometimes… wait does that mean you touched the organs..” remy looked at mim with a disgusted face.
Mim ignores remy and They get quiet, remy suddenly interrupts the silence by saying;
“ Alright let's continue.. Solar if you see anything familiar tell us.”
Solar nods and turns around to enter another open room, which looks more like a bedroom. They look around cautiously trying to find something to take them back in memory, suddenly something glowing shines in the corner that catches solarphel’s attention. Solarphel looked around before approaching it slowly. They thought it looked similar to the light that they saw that day, the light that might have caused chaos in the village, out of nervousness that it might happen again; solarphel called mim and remy to check what it was.
“So.. what did you say it does again?” mim said with a concerned face.
“I-i don't know, that's the last thing I saw before the village got destroyed behind me..”
Remy sighed “ I can't find any information on it.. It might be a rare ore or something..”
“ Oh yeah.. About that.. The last time I saw it was something small.. Uhm.. can disappear..”
Mim interrupted solar; “ a particle?”
“ yeah a particle!.. A particle..? What's that..” solar lastly said with a low voice.
“Well the one you saw might be a particle, this one is an ore.. Which means.. This thing can come in many forms.. Let's take it with us for nico”
Remy sighed; “ and I'll also try to find some information in the data bank..”
“ Alright, should we head back home then? I think we did enough investigating here, we didn't find anything interesting but this ore.”
Mim says so happily,
“I think we barely investigated anything here.”
Mim comes closer to remy’s face and whispers;
“I know. I just wanna go home and watch the latest episode of roses bloom.” mim said with a light smile.
Remy looks at mim annoyed; “ugh.. I hate that series.. I don't get what you find in it.”
“.. it's pretty good, you just have bad tastes in romance.”
“Yeah yeahh.. What's so good about masochism..”
“HEY. ITS NOT-”
Remy interrupts mim leaving him mad;
“Anyways solar, we did the best we can, we should learn about this ore first before investigating more, it might be left here by atticus, maybe.” he said with a light smile for solar, and solar smiled awkwardly back scratching his head;
“Yeah.. It's fine- thanks..”
“Come on let's get out, it's getting late.”
Solar and remy walk towards the door leaving mim behind;
Remy turns back dumbfounded;
“hey , you coming or?”
Mim pouts angrily turning away from remy, remy sighs and drags mim from his hair;
“ OW- OKAY I'LL COME.” Remy lets go of mim’s hair and walks out the door smiling while mim angrily follows.
