I heard a sound.
The creak of wooden wheels… A horse-drawn cart?
So there might be a town nearby.
I told myself, "Hold on a bit longer. My eyes… they see more clearly in the dark. This… this is something new."
> As my stomach ached, my thoughts grew blurry.
I heard the moo of a cow nearby.
I sharpened the piece of wood I had found on the ground and crept forward silently.
At that moment… a sound exploded in my left eye.
> My mother and father appeared before me.
"Because of you… we died."
"Why are you still alive?"
"Why didn't you die?!"
> "SHUT UP!!!" I shouted.
> And… the Demon appeared.
It laughed. "Hahaha… Riven… your family wants you dead."
"Shut your mouth!" I yelled.
> Pain surged from my left eye. "AH! Damn it… what's happening?!"
"You… are a part of the world, Riven," said the Demon.
"What?! What does that mean?"
"Survive, Riven… we will meet again."
> I opened my eyes. I was drenched in sweat.
"What was that…? A part of the… world?"
