The Path Upwards

Prologue :

A.I.A 200 - 5th Moon Cycle

Hendrix Withers:

I ran and I ran and I ran .I didn't stopped.I couldn't stop.I mustered all the energy i could to keep running.Those cunts unleashed their hounds on me.Even though I had never hunted with hounds I knew they were fast.It was so very obvious that they were faster than me even though all I had was nothing but my backpack.

I couldn't continue this for any longer.I couldn't keep running.I was at my limit.The hounds were almost at my heels.Those monstrosities.They weren't dogs they were almost wolves.

I looked behind my shoulder to see if they had caught up to me yet.That was a bad mistake.I ran smack dab into a branch and landed on my back a few feet forward due to the speed I was running at.

Amid all the pain and barking hounds i got up again and started to run.I was just stumbling forward.They would catch up to me soon.I knew it .I had no hope .I couldn't climb a tree because then the men on the horses would surround me .I couldn't stop running because then the hounds would feast on me.

While I was thinking about what I should do I didn't notice that I was at the end of my trail and all that was in front of me was a cliff.I skidded to a stop just before the edge.Its much more painful than it looks .All the sharp rocks and twigs cut up my foot like warm butter.

I turned around to confront the hounds .I tried to pick up a couple rocks but its very hard to do that when there are half a dozen wolf sized dogs just a couple meters away snarling at your every move.I couldn't back up further if I did I would go splat after falling off the cliff.

I picked up the only thing next to me ,which was a puny stick .Then the horsemen caught up to me .There were 5 men.So I couldn't fight them off like the heroes from the movies .

I had only 3 choices .One,I could throw the twig at them hoping that the dogs would go fetch.

Two,throw it on one of the men and try to scramble for it .Three, Jump off the cliff.

But alas,I was never one to stick to a plan.So I proceeded to throw the stick on the man in the middle and jumped off the cliff.And I fell .It felt like an eternity ,until I saw it.

I wished the bag I was wearing had a parachute in it.I was falling right into a black portal,Or at least it looked like one.Not that Ive seen one before.I tried my best to steer away from it. But I found out that It was sucking me Into it and there was no way that I could escape falling into the gaping black egg shaped portal.I just wished that it wast just me high off some magical toad sweat
