I'm wandering. Exploring the city with my hands in my back pockets and an immense black hoodie I stole out of someone's room at the inn making itself a dress over my petite figure.
It's been over a week since we've found ourselves in the realm of Rhy'Din. Outwardly, I've been adjusting splendidly considering the circumstances. I laugh, I joke, I speak to people and creatures I was sure were a product of mine or someone else's imagination before we got here. Truthfully? I'm f*cking scared and I have a god complex that's slowly getting torn apart. By the way, that's the worst kind of complex to come down off of; especially when thrust into the situation that you used to control from afar.
I wonder how we're going to get home, if I'll ever get back to the shop.... For a moment I bitterly wonder if a certain someone in my life even misses me. Bah! I tossed the thought aside and boosted my ego: If I'm not sure he'd miss me, he's not worth it. Into an alley I absentmindedly strayed.
How did it happen? Why did it happen? Am I now a victim of someone else's fingertips just as he was of mine? If that's so... is he acting freely? I'm not sure if I'm scared or comforted by that. I must consider the possibility that he is not truly a maniac; I have shaped him that way. That now he will carry on with his life in a peaceful manner and I nor any of my friends have anything to worry about as far as that is concerned.
Yeah, fat chance. My head was racing; trying to justify; trying to make light of the situation.
But there was no light in this. I heard a clock strike fourteen in the distance and my heart dropped. How far have I gone from the sanctuary of the inn? Where exactly is this dilapidated portion of city in relation to the Red Dragon? I've forgotten these details... the important details. What I do remember is the clock tower that strikes fourteen when it is not fourteen o'clock. The "Dead-Zone" that this place is. Even if my friends suddenly befriended a magic user to find me, I'd still be screwed. Off the map. Ah, that's why I made his home here.
I can feel the adrenaline surge after that startling realization, so I start to walk. Fast. Back the way I came.
This... isn't the way I came though. I look around frantically for some clue, but as luck would have it, all I am faced with that means anything to me is a seven story building. A seven story building that seemed to hang on by a thread; that housed things I would curse any god for dreaming up for their own entertainment.
A wave of self loathing swept over me.
