My feet ached as I began to question why I'd even picked this direction, to begin with. It had been four grueling earth hours according to the watch.

Only me, the trees, and a few little creatures scurrying here and there.
Though the peace was welcomed, it also allowed my mind to continue escalating all of the negative thoughts in my head.
Alex was supposed to be an all-powerful being, why hadn't he come found me yet? My System wasn't hiding from him...
Groaning, I collapsed on the ground beside a small lake at the foot of a rocky mountain.
"I cannot take much more of this," I complained out loud to System, finding the long hours of silence excruciatingly damaging to my already fragile sanity.
