2024-10-03 23:20:51 +0000 UTC View PostNing Shan's gaze was locked on the creature within the glass coffin. While he might have chosen to call it human, the veracity of that statement remained to be proven. Still, he hadn't found any other way to truly describe it.
It was bipedal and hairless, unlike any primate he ever encountered, except for one. However, ...
2024-10-02 21:19:10 +0000 UTC View PostNing cautiously trudged on through the darkness, a single hand carefully gliding over a nearby wall as he pressed forward toward the dim light in the distance. It flickered at an irregular pace, sometimes remaining extinguished for minutes at a time before suddenly springing back to life, each time with a little less strength...
2024-10-01 16:07:30 +0000 UTC View PostDown in the depths of the earth, there was only dimmest of light. Ning Shan stood, bewildered, until his eyes finally adapted to his environment. He had no idea how far he had fallen, much less how he had survived the drop, yet he was completely unharmed but lost.
The ground was hard under his feet; walls surrounded him...
2024-09-29 16:04:50 +0000 UTC View PostNing Shan took the metal weapon into his arms, feeling its heft. In a smooth and practiced motion, he raised the rifle to eye level before kneeling down, resting the muzzle onto a nearby raised ledge, just as the man he had just taken out had done, imitating him almost perfectly.
A single eye looked through the long sco...
2024-09-28 16:38:57 +0000 UTC View PostSera felt a sharp pain in her core as if her stomach had ruptured, spilling its content, the acid burning through her flesh, but she knew this was just her mind filled with anxiety trying to tell her she was doomed. Still, the pain was real. She could still feel where the blow had landed as if it had just happened.

2024-09-28 01:38:41 +0000 UTC View PostNing Shan remained still for more than two hours, carefully watching for any signs of the beast he had felt. Fortunately, the creature seemed uninterested in a small prey like he was. Still, he remained vigilant.
