When we had all gathered enough strength to continue traveling we left immediately. We wanted to get as far away from the corpse of KyJa as we could. During our walk I kept trying to relearn what I imagined was the death element of my sword. It took 2 days before I started to get a change in the blade. It didn't turn to bones like it had against KyJa but it lost it's vibrant colors and shocking feel and began to feel cold and dead in my hands.
After a couple more days of travel we came across and abandoned city. The first form of life that we'd seen since we left home. We immediately began ransacking the houses searching for any food that hadn't spoiled and any water that was laying around. During this time Zane found a car sitting around that looked like it could still be functional. It appeared to be a 1976 Cheverolet Camero. I immediately remembered that I knew how to hotwire vehicles. I instantly opened up the panel under the wheel and began messing with the wires. After a few moments I got the vehicle working again.
After we finished looting the city we set out across the wasteland in the car. I didn't know where I was going, but somehow I could sense, the end was coming, we were about to have the hardest fight of our lives.
