It's been god knows how long since the corruption took over, forcing the people of Oakswood to to either evade their homes or stay and fight back. About 90% of them had unfortunately lost their lives that day, and Kalannar could've easily been one of them.

Quietly, The Blue Wolf steps into what once was his lively hometown in an attempt to find supplies. Yet he couldn't help but let his mind wander back to the happier days, back where criminals and his family were his main concern. He remembers the simple days of him and his little brother Eleran, watching the young man grow into such an intelligent and creative man. He remembers his days as a police officer where he'd always hang around and prank his comrade Dutch Wilderness. It saddens him that all of this became a memory from the past, all transformed into this apocalyptic and dying world he now has to survive in.

Berry wasn't with him this time. The poor bastard got himself hurt again and even jumping in to risk yourself getting wounded or infected was enough to stop Berry from accidentally slamming himself into a tree while he was dealing with a corrupted. That reminds him, he definitely need to find any medical stuff for Berry.

He stopped, quickly snapping back to reality when he suddenly heard the faint sounds of footsteps coming from behind one of the buildings.

Kalannar's body tensed, quickly turning to the source of the sound that was growing louder. He raised his fists and took a step back, preparing himself in case of a surprise attack. He tries to lean to the side to see if he can catch sight of anyone but has so far not spotted anyone... yet. Despite himself, he began speaking.

"Who's there?!" Kalannar called out, keeping his fist raised just above his chest. He didn't move anymore, keeping himself rooted to the spot as he waited for anything to happen.
