Chapter 3 - discovery

The crackling of wood and the rising of Flames mixed together well with the deafing slience in the background, caused by the two unruly red glowing eyes.

Holding a hand to his chin, Sam's red hat moved with the sudden gush of wind, his glasses reflecting The over atop Slash From the DIY axe. Dispering into a swarm of bats, And glidng on the side of the axe. A Hollowing scream with the breaking of bones broke the silence. Wedged deep in the shoulder of the screaming giant with a fountain of blood pouring out was the Axe.

Floating under the moon, The swarm of bats reformed. Sam shook his head. Watching the giant Freeze, letting go of the handle The Giant shook. Sam knew what came next, he could hear the slowing of its heart.

His glowing glasses reflecting The giants fall its back touching the sands, staining it in red. His eyes losing their color, before it breathed no more. Yet what Sam found ironic was that the axes handle pointed towards the attacker.

"Brother No!" The giant shouted falling to its knees.

Sam stood still, a flicker of emotion passing through him. The last time he spoke to his brother without it ending up in an argument can be counted on one hand, he missed him. The shutting down of Yggdrasil, he should've showed. Sam left him multiple messages before logging in, and hoped that he would come.

The grieving giant gripped on to the handle of the axe that slayed his brother, Sam eyes never strayed looking down at the giant, as it ripped its axe out of the carcass of its kin. Slowly the giant stood, its face turned up as its eyes glared hatefully at Sam.

Then the shouting came, Pure unfiltered rage. No words where needed, the bloodied axe didnt meet it mark, Sam watched it glide a hair away from him, side stepping with a swing of his fist meeting the sharpened side the axe shattered.

Sam didn't give the Giant a second more, if it was Pity or something else That guided Sam's hand like a sword giving the Giant a quick death. The Giant headless body splattered the sky with blood, his head falling down near its brother legs.

It felt strange to Sam that it was that easy to take a life, and feel unbothered he was changing already that was a fact. Gritting his teeth, an annoying scent that had been prickling his nose since the fist blood spilled. It smelled of aged wine, beckoning him to take a sip. Sam's throat had begun to parch.

It was conflicting, the rational side of him knew to resist it was this bodys convulsion to blood. But the other side spoke truer, he would grow weak and feeble, and eventually die. And it was all his fault, for choosing this race when he knew what was going to happen.

With a low groan, Sam walked up to the decapated head, picking it up the giant last face was one of horror.

"Well bottoms up." His mouth opened to a unnatural degree, his pure white sharp canines dug into the head, Then it happened his eyes glowed, foreign memories poured into him. Mouthfuls of blood flowed down his throat, until the head was nothing but a shriveled mess, that lay in his hands.

Sam dropped the head, his mouth covered in blood."interesting."the darkness leading to his inventory appeared, reaching his hand in he pulled out a cloth. Wiping his face clean, Sam's just found something fascinating. Forgetting about his conflicting moral alignment, when he fed it wasent just blood he devoured.No. He devoured it all.Memories.Talents.Its soul. They where all his.

How sam was working on the answer, one it could be because of his special Racial class.[Original Vampire.] or two his flavor text.or something else entirely. Sam scratched his chin, with a hmm he looked down and saw his shadow.

"That's not creepy at all."a wiggling mess of shadows was there, with multiple eyes and mouths. Sam felt a connection, with but a mental pull the wiggling mess of shadows shot out of his shadow.

Towering over Sam, a monstrosity was the only word to describe it, its body was made up of shadows that moved constantly. Its head held multiples red eyes and mouths. A red hue outlined its form like some sort of aura. In its closed hand a familiar axe was there but it was not the one that layed on the ground. This axe was covered in the same shadow, twisted in the red aura that it was imbued with.

"Your the giant." Sam said, and to his surprise the giant nodded. That was something, Sam felt the drain in his mana the same drain that would affect him every time he transformed in the bats. It was miniscule at best.

"I should thank you, you gave me much needed information." That was the undisputed fact. Now he's journey to Momonga was moving forward a bit, he knew now where he was. Di Gavorsa Desert. Where that was in the new world the giant didn't know. And neither did Sam but it was a start.

But that wasent all Di Gavorsa Desert, his friend here provided information about civilization, and The hierarchy. They where The 10 Major Clans. BlackRock. DragonMaw. BlackHand. Warsong. Doom. Laughingstorm. Red Rising. Urdnot. Fiend. Lions Claw. They hold territory over the vast northern part of the desert and are at constant war with each other, and everyone else by conquering and raiding other territories.

There was also The minor clans they are spread everywhere across the desert, comprised of hardened warriors, the two giant where apart of one called Maw. Not a prominent clan but one that gets by, by selling their swords. Warriors for hire.

Another power is The great kingdom of the Pabilsag, ruled by a demihuman species that look like scorpion people. One thing was for certain they where the wealthiest in the desert, and more infuriating it was because They deal in slaves. They where located near the southern edge of the desert, right next to the ocean.

Then there was the mysterious kingdom of Slutarn, the giant only knew that they where not to be messed with. And haven't been seen in a longtime.

The rival kingdom of the great kingdom of the pabilsag, is The Kingdom of Dune.

They have been at odds with the great kingdom of the pabilsag, for reasons unknown. The ruling race of the kingdom is Minotaurs. It is said that their armies are the strongest in the desert but Sam's doubt that. They are located in the center of the desert, it is said their kingdom is protected by mountains.

There are many other kingdoms but the Giant didn't know all of them, thought one interesting memories of the Giant did catch his attention, Dragons. And the Giant so happened to see one, before it ran.

Atop of a lone mountain, south east from here.

When sam met up with Momonga later he would make sure he and his buddy go say hello to the dragon, after all when there's dragons there's gold and who dosent like an adventure.

Sam made his way to the carcass of the other Giant that fell first, crouching down Sam bit into the gash in its shoulder. His eye glowed eerie red once again.
