Without the obstruction of the miasma, the light from above the valley brought brightness back to the abyss, illuminating the full form of the giant beast.
It awoke from its century-long slumber, slowly supporting its jagged claws. Its skin resembled both ancient trees and rocks. Even before fully standing, its size was already a hundred stories high.
It had a pair of shattered, decayed wings that hung quietly at its sides.
Hundreds, thousands of dried corpses hung from them, each with a twisted face. As the giant beast moved, they swayed slightly, some even howling like living people.
Then, it raised its head and saw the void in the cave.
It sensed another side of the space, where a group of insignificant little ants were; it also sensed its child, who was blood-related, enduring immense pain.
