Chapter 3 - chapter three: the path to the arrival

Liam, unsure of his escape route, opted to walk along the dimly lit straight path. He moved swiftly, fully aware that he needed to stay focused on his journey. Lost in thought about the passage of time, Liam continued to run until he stumbled upon a pack of wolves. Liam attempted to be discreet, knowing the wolves had not yet spotted him. Unfortunately, he accidentally stepped on a twig, alerting the wolves, who growled and began to pursue him. Liam ran for his life, but the relentless wolves refused to let him go. Suddenly, one of the wolves leaped at Liam, clawing him and leaving a scar on his left eye. In agony from the pain of the wound, Liam desperately searched for something to defend himself. He grabbed a sharp rock and repeatedly struck the wolf on the head in a fight for survival.

After the wolf was repeatedly struck on the head and collapsed to the ground, there was a sudden stillness among the pack who had witnessed what Liam had done and scattered in different directions. Liam, in disbelief, crawled to a nearby creek to wash his face and quench his thirst from the fight, but as he crawled, he was slowly losing consciousness. Despite this, he continued towards the creek, and as he reached the edge, he lost consciousness.Upon regaining consciousness, Liam discovered himself lying in a bed, his right eye covered with a bandage. He glanced around, feeling disoriented and questioning his surroundings. Gradually, he rose from the bed and cautiously surveyed his surroundings.

Unexpectedly, a door creaked open, revealing an elderly man entering the room. Liam swiftly assumed a defensive stance and inquired about the man's identity.

The elderly man attempted to clarify his identity and location to Liam, but Liam hurled a series of punches at him. The old man evaded Liam's assault and retaliated with a punch that pinned Liam against the wall. Liam regained consciousness once more, and upon opening his eyes for the second time, he noticed the presence of the old man in the room. Frightened, Liam curled up in the corner of the bed, unsure of the old man's intentions.
