In the heart of a deserted town, a figure cloaked in shadow moved with silent grace. It was Noire, Alex's pet, a wolf transformed into a human, her eyes glowing with an otherworldly light. Her presence was a stark contrast to the desolate landscape, a beacon of power in a world shrouded in despair.
She had been tasked with a grim mission: to find and eliminate a dark mage responsible for the disappearance of two villages. It was a mission that aligned with her nature, a hunt in the darkest corners of the world.
The town, a ghost of its former self, was a fitting stage for this grim task. Deserted houses stood like skeletal remains, their windows empty eyes staring into the bleakness. The air was thick with the scent of decay, a chilling reminder of the horrors that had befallen this place.
