You were walking in the woods, late at night, collecting herbs for a remedy.

There was a sound behind you and your ear perks- you turn- a chimera.

Jumping back, you look around frantically for some kind of defense- nothing.

The chimera pounces, you turn your head and flinch- suddenly, there’s a slash, then a dying roar.

You open your eyes to see me, sword in hand, my back turned at the dissipating monster to look at you.

“Will! What are you doing here without a sword- or anything?!”
