*Drip!* *Drop!* *Drip!*
The sound of water droplets falling on a rocky surface echoes in the dark and damp belly of a deep underground cave.
"Hmm?... Did I forget to close some tap?..."
A young man with light brownish hair and scars all over his body slowly opened his eyes in tiredness as he looked around in confusion.
"W-where… is this place?"
His body ached all over as it was covered in wounds that seemed to have only barely managed to stop bleeding.
His clothes were horribly torn apart as if an explosion had blown them up; he was covered in dust and in a very bad mental state; even his eyes felt like they were burning and refusing to open properly.
This young man stuck in a miserable state was none other than Fade Crest, the former child of heavens!
"I-is this... some crudely made underground jail?... Those half-orc warriors that I saw before... they brought me here?"
Thinking about this matter, Fade felt helpless.
