'what the fuck I became sand' I thought out loud, it feel a little painful but could be ignored and I feel freer and 5 times faster than before as I moved.
like a dusty wind in the desert but it did not last long as I turned back to a skeleton after some time, that felt good but it seems that the state was not permanent, and could only be held for some minute at best.
I did not have time to dwell on my new skill because my whole body was urging me to continue to move as I did.
The thrill of turning to sand was wonderful as I did it many times, I found the wolf running at my front which was not far away, I had an evil grim as I turned into sand bypassing them before dropping some scorpion dead bodies blocking their way which stalled them.
it only delayed them for some minutes but by that time I already have ran away.
After some time I came close to an area full of storm clouds as many monsters were roaring at each other waiting for something, just as I was about to take a closer look at these monsters the was a loud bang noise that caught all the attention in the area.
as in the middle of the sky appeared what looked like a crystal with two sliver snakes on it.
immediately I saw it, they were only one thing on my mind and that was I had to have it at all costs.
All the monsters began a huge war over it, I ran turning into the sand but before I could go far a huge wind blew me back turning me back into my skeleton.
it seems like I had to avoid the wind so as my sand from not spread around. I look up and I saw a big bird like an eagle with 4 wings flying to the crystal but as It was only a moment away from it a large snake came out of the group biting the Eagle's legs and slamming it into the desert floor as it came back up aiming for the crystal.

the snake was huge like 30-something meters before I could even stand a huge hand came and grab the snake's body dragging it away from the crystal. the hand belong to a giant humanoid most of which had four loin-like heads and four hands with snake tails.
it bit the snake as it continues to draw it down another monster that look like a monitor monster 10 m jumped hitting the crystal with its axe into the sandy desert.
I could then see a sea of beetle of different sizes running toward it but as the sea of Beetle came closer to the crystal it got burnt as a huge dragon-like creature 30m came down from the sky decapitated the snake's head and flew to the crystal.
the crystal was then drawn by the wind to a humanoid black-scale cat-like creature 2 meters tall, it ran fast like a flash living after image as it was chased by other monsters and a hill-like monster blocked it at the front.
I quickly ran to the head of the snake and put it in my inventory as some small rock monster that looked like Gollum attacked me.
I drugged as I distorted two with my external limbs which broke them.
I looked at the battlefield and all I saw was chaos and I have to say this was madness.
many monsters battling madly for that object if not for me forcing my reasons that I should make a chance for myself to get the crystal, I will be just as mad as them now.
it's a good thing I have a human half if not I will be just like them but to my surprise, I was not the only one who came up with this plan as other creatures have the same.
how do I know because I could see them wait to look for a good moment to stick, Fu*ck what the hell is that crystal that is causing all this madness I refuse to believe it is an ordinary Treasure, it must be a super object or something in that line.
what made my jaws almost drop is when an Army of skeletons led by a bone elephant carrying a 3-meter armored skeleton 💀 holding a 2-meter weird-looking staff commanding the army to attack.
the was a small carrier on the elephant's back holding some objects like a book and other things which i could not see properly.
Its army was made up of many skeletons like shoulders with swords, bows, and spears, as big as the army looked I could not feel any form of threat from it the most it will cost me to take them down was time.
the most surprising was I almost followed its commands, I could understand what it said and it kept shouting get me the desert heart.
the skeleton under its command ran to it like a mindless drone doing what it said.
I, at last, know that that weird crystal is called a dearest heart and it was very important, but everything in me did not want that skeleton to get the crystals called the sand heart given me only one thought which came to mind and that was to kill it.
for some reason, I could not have agreed more with that decision because I am not letting any useless pile of bone get control over me no matter what I become.
