Unlike most, Targwyn watched the volcano from the time it began to erupt until the time the ash finally settled. She looked at those around her who trembled in fear. She couldn’t help but sneer at those that were panicked about if the volcano would destroy the lives of those in Novus. She was in awe of the destruction, the ability for the volcano to destroy so many things.
So when it finally settled, she wanted to get a closer look. With confidence, she stepped onto the bridge. She wanted to lay eyes on the earth that wanted to claim this world. For once, there was excitement that coursed through her veins. She wanted so badly to lay eyes on this work of absolute magic.
But the closer she got, the more she began to wonder just what sort of magic this was. The closer she got towards the island, the more she began to realize that the island no longer existed. Something had swallowed it up as if it was nothing but a cheerio floating in a bowl of cereal. The only thing that kept her moving forward were the whispers of danger up ahead.
And as she continued on, Targwyn began to see just what the others were whispering about. Monsters lay just on the other side of the bridge, waiting patiently for someone to join them in the water. It gave Targwyn great pleasure to see just how many were still so afraid. She was not afraid, but perhaps she should be.
And then the ivy wall came. Targwyn looked at it, not seeing danger as some did. “What a disappointment.” Perhaps she had been looking for something more. Perhaps she had been hoping to see some big scary monster that ate the ones who looked upon it. When one is expecting to go face to face with a monster only to be greeting with a wall of vegetation, it sucks away the beauty of it. She sighs. This had been a waste of time and energy.
