A vast ravine cut through the earth, a scar marring the land's otherwise unblemished
surface. Boulders of all sizes tumbled down into the parched canyon below. The howls
of monsters punctuated the air, reminding any who passed by that this was a land
where only the strong survived.
This was a land where humanity's prized magic was ineffective, and food was scarce.
Climbing out of the ravine required scaling a hundred-meter-tall cliff. A cliff that held
no cover, and was filled with monsters waiting to feast on any foolish enough to
attempt the climb.
There were staircases leading out on the eastern and western ends of the ravine, but
once someone fell, the monsters lurking below had no intention of letting their prey
escape.
To most people, the ravine was synonymous with hell. Though for some, it also made
for a convenient execution grounds.
A solitary silhouette suddenly moved within that godforsaken canyon. A pair of rabbit
ears poked out from below a boulder. They twitched a little, as if searching for any
noises. Such a cute spectacle was completely at odds with the hellish surroundings of
the ravine.
After ascertaining its surroundings were safe, the figure tentatively stuck its head out
from behind the boulder. Surprisingly, the rabbit ears were attached not to a rabbit's
head, but a human's. The figure was actually a bunny girl in her mid-teens. After
poking her head out, she looked around, confirming once more by sight that there
were no dangers around.
She was quite beautiful. She was covered in grime and her shabby clothes were in
tatters, but that did nothing to mar her stunning looks. She had light blue hair and
azure eyes, and gave off this aura of majestic mystery. And that dignified looking girl
was currently…
"Ugh, I'm so scared. I wish I were in bed eating snacks right now." Her rather
undignified outburst ruined the entire effect her looks had.
The bunny girl continued muttering complaints for a while, but then she suddenly
slapped her cheeks and renewed her determination.
"If I don't do something, then it's my family that'll end up being the monsters' snacks,"
she muttered to herself, her eyes shimmering with resolve.
"…I've gotta hurry. I need to make it to that future, to that person." She straightened
her back and dashed off deeper into the ravine.
A few minutes later, a pathetic scream echoed throughout the gorge.
"Hiiii! I'm not tasty, don't eat meeeee!"
