Two Weeks Ago
It had been about eight hours since I left the others. Although it wasn't long, with the sunrise, I was still on my way. I was excited to have such a big task for the first time, so I continued to walk without sleeping or resting.
There was nothing but trees in the forest along the road I was walking. Only the sounds of the wind hitting the branches were distracting me, making me nervous. Whenever a branch hit a tree or a sound was made, I would take caution, slow myself down, and observe my surroundings.
Fortunately, I managed to cross the forest without any trouble. Nothing happened along the straight road I was walking on, except for one strange incident. I accidentally tripped over a branch and when I tilted my head towards the road, a large winged shadow was reflected on the ground with the sun hitting the top of it. It was as if a powerful creature was watching me.
