I had absolutely no idea why she said something like that. Her words lingered in my head, unsettling and vague, like a riddle that refused to make sense no matter how hard I tried to piece it together.
Was she part of something bigger? Some hidden organization? Maybe Leon was in their way somehow? I couldn't tell. I honestly didn't have a damn clue what was going on anymore. All I knew for sure was one thing and it was that I needed to get that final piece. Whatever it took.
After walking for what felt like forever, we finally reached somewhere different.
We'd gone even deeper now. We were far below the point where sunlight or warmth could ever reach. The air here felt heavy, cold, and thin, like every breath I took was scraping my throat raw. I hadn't seen a single monster so far, but the ground was covered with skeletons, scattered like a field of bones. Some were crushed into the dirt, others still in the shape of the people or creatures they once were.
