The village was nearly ravaged, to put it lightly. Tidal Blight was everywhere and buildings were collapsing or at least on the verge of it.

Yet, Cartethyia lingered.

She'd figured it wouldn't hurt to check for any survivors, but so far? Her luck had been dwindling out slowly.

Not a single person had been in sight - as if everyone had just vanished off the face of the earth, never to be seen again.

Cartethyia was about to give up - only to stop when she heard a small sound coming from a nearby tree.

The person she found wasn't a person she was expecting to see especially after everyone else had vanished entirely, but she could see a silhouette inside the tree shaking and trying to hide.
