LONE MAN [Page 165] (Patreon)

165

You and your parents spent days in a rundown inn in the neighboring town where your dad works. As expected, New Helios doesn't have any answers to what they were experiencing. You felt helpless and a bit guilty.

You knew what was happening.

What happened to Lone man's town is happening to yours. After the first few days of the incident, everything went back to normal. It was so tempting to go back and call everything some sort of coincidence; after all, those who died on the first day were the eldest of the community.

But then it happened again and again, like a black void sucking the life out of everything in its way.

It was too much.

You and your parents decided that it was best to leave the area altogether and go back to the city. Life was hard there, but the terror you all witnessed was enough to serve as motivation to endure everything.

You didn't witness the end of it all.

You and your parents went back to the city, leaving everything behind.

THE END
