Evan and the spirit boy fiercely weild their swords and magic, wanting to eliminate their enemy as quickly as possible, but it is easier said than done. Both foes continuously fought, and are aiming for victory.
Burns, frostbites, scrapes, bruises, and bleeding wounds littered their skins but still they continue to battle as the adrenaline rushing through their veins fueled them the energy that is enough to keep them going.
"Is that all you've got?" the boy provoked as he raise his scimitar and slash it at Evan.
Evan quickly dodged and wave his hand to create a fierce swirling inferno that melted the snow above the ground, and set fire to the nearby trees.

The sound of the of the rushing cold river echoed throughout the nearby surrounding as it continued to deliver its strong yet gentle current down its endless stream. Then the river was suddenly mixed with a light tint of red. Evan shudder at the feeling of his skin coming in contact with the icy water, freshly taken from the coursing river in front of him. Even so, he beared with it, his wounds are not bleeding anymore but he needs to clean it to prevent infection, along with the dried trace of blood that is sticking uncomfortably in his skin. At the same time, Mayari was looking for firewoods nearby. Light rain of snow covered the sky with clouds and snowflakes as Mayari ignored the pain in her back and neatly stack the pile of woods under a tree with lush white leaves.

“Can you freeze this river, Mayari?” Evan asked as he gazed to the other side of the watercourse.They have been travelling south since dawn and the rain of snow continued to descend above them, bringing more cold to the icy breeze. Regardless, Mayari and Evan resumed their travel to find an exit. They know they are not safe anywhere in this curse forest.Without a word of answer, Mayari step closer to the rushing river and crouched as she took off her one of her gloves and placed her palm to the cold water, freezing it solid to make a bridge for them to pass through to the other side.“Done.” Mayari bluntly informed as she stood up.Evan was the first one to take a step on the ice, tapping his feet several times on the platform with force, to make sure that the bridge is hard enough for both of them to step on.After taking a few cautious steps in the ice, he then extended his hand towards Mayari, who only stared at him wit

The flame continued to spiral, melting the snow nearby and burning everything it touch. Izen step forward and tried to freeze the fire with his ice but before it could near the storm of flames, it already melted from the heat of the embers that scattered in the hot atmosphere.Izen tried again but when his ice melted once more, a fireball was then sent towards him. The attack was fast and powerful that it broke through Izen’s shield. He got blasted from his ground with burns, and laid unconscious above the snow that he landed.More fireballs are released from the spiraling flames but none of the fire successfully penetrated Yuvera’s shield as she stayed unamazed and displeased in her throne.“Such power…” she commented. “But that isn’t enough to vanquish a God like me!”Yuvera then sat up and slashed her arm as waves of large ices endlessly emerged from the snow-covered ground, striding their way towards th

Soon the jingle of bells chimed along as the dancers’ dance with the rhythm of the melody, swaying under the light shower of white snow.Lady Livian Yesenia, the Great Eleven Priestess of Nature, stood in front of the ritual as she offered a sacred branch to the forest, gently laying it on the pure white snow.“O great spirits of the Yuver Forest,” she chanted. “O bless us with your presence for we yearned to know thy well-being of her majesty, the beautiful Forest Goddess Yuvera.”“May our request be granted.

The cold wind blew throughout the snowy forest, scattering away the snow dust that once was a goddess. The snow dust then glided with the winter breeze like tiny petals of a flower, then faded away into the white void as its existence finally vanished for eternity.A few feet away, stood Mayari with heaving breaths.

Evan's blue eyes widened in surprise and confusion upon seeing Mayari with red crimson irises. However, not only her deep brown eyes changed, also her night black hair turned silvery white that seems to dimly glow like a crescent moon. She wore a red dress, accompanied by a black cloak that hung in her figure. "How did you enter this place?" She coldly asked with the same voice and tone like Mayari. Her indifferent stare are oddly identical, as she stare right through his eyes with a poker face. Evan tried to reply but the thorns are still tightly wrapped in his mouth, keeping it shut. Mayari then snapped her fingers and the thorns loosen until it snake away from Evan's mouth. "Mayari?" As soon as the thorns retreated, the prince immediately blurted out with uncertainty. "Not quite." She replied. Now Evan is assured that she wasn't her, although, what does she mean by her reply. "If you are not Mayari, then may I know who you are?" Evan asked with wariness in his tone. "You do

After walking for hours that seems like eternity, Evan couldn't believe that he arrived back to the dead tree that overlooked the gloomy lake. Like a loop, the world he is in won't go anywhere but this certain place.Everything else are just dry grasses, below the cloudy heaven that threatened to rain, yet no drops of water showered the thirsty leaves.The cold breeze blew here and there, piercing through Evan's thick clothes and crawling in his skin, the feeling of it never failed to make him shiver.He walked for a long time but he never did felt the tiredness cling to his body. Nor did he felt the thirst for water and the hunger for food. His wounds have long healed and he felt not a single ounce of pain, it was like he is immortal in this realm of unknown.Evan continued until he reached the lake where he once left.

"She have been really busy lately, it is good to know that she made time to visit.""What's the situation?" Mayari inquired.Dr. Ashley paused to arrange her herbs and ointments on the table before replying hesitantly."Umm... It has been quite... hectic."

"Welcome back." A voice, devoid of emotion greeted Mayari upon her wake.As always, the sky in her mind was a tapestry of swirling gray and blacks of cloud casting a somber mood over the dried grassy land.Laying under the tree, the air feels thick and heavy, as if nature itself holds it breath. The lifeless branches above form a canopy, their silhouettes stark against the murky sky.Mayari's dark bay eyes traveled from branch to branch, searching nothing in particular. Each gnarled limb, stripped of its leaves, seemed to tell a story of decay and resilience. The bark, cracked and weathered, bore the marks of countless seasons endured.She felt a strange connection to the tree's silent testament of survival, as if in its barren form, mirrored some unspoken part of herself. The air around her was still, amplifying the quiet reverence of the moment as she continued to study every inch of the lifeless monument.As she traced the skeletal remains of what once was a vibrant tree, something

Eyes filled with rage as it stared at Mayari's dark brown irises.When he finally shouted her name in anger, she suddenly felt her body flinched underneath him, her eyes held something he didn't expect to see from her— the slight flicker of fear. It was gone for a millisecond but he couldn't be mistaken. Her eyes held fear for a moment as he saw his angered expression reflecting from her wide eyes.Evan immediately realized what he have done, his anger slowly sunk as guilt started to pull his heartstrings painfully.
