I am Benedict Thornton. I'm here in Neverglade from Aurora Skies because there were strange, undead beings inhabiting there. They took my entire family, and I had to flee.
I arrived in the Neverglades after driving my uncle's boat off the shore of Aurora Skies. I miss Aurora Skies, mainly the verdant mountains and exquisite waterfalls. But I also missed my family, and wouldn't try to let that get to my head.
After arriving in the Neverglade, I camped out near the river until I heard a strange sound. I went up to where I heard the sound, where I found a teenage boy fending off the undead. I didn't help because I wasn't armed, so, I went into a house searching for supplies. The last thing I remember before that is that one of the undead beings attacked me when I entered the dining room.
I blacked out.
The being was a woman with a pin-up hair and brown tank-top. She bet me near my cheekbones and I could feel the venom pulsing through my blood.
That's what awoke me.
My skin was paler than usual and I knew that I only had a few hours until I transformed. I walked into the living room only to see the very being that bit me before I blacked out.
She looked exactly the same. Unfortunately I was in a dead end and couldn't find a way out besides the windows, which would take too long to open.
She walked pretty fast for her kind, so she caught up to me quite quickly.
She was gnawing on my shoulder which luckily had 3 layers of shirts on it.
Yet, still. I was feeling soar and knew that I had even lesser time to get some sort of cure.
I managed to outrun her, even though she paced quickly behind me.
I was trying to escape the town and find a doctor or alchemist who can cure me with a tonic or something.
Luckily, the being got distracted and raided a house that I was passing. I was feeling a little bit woozy from the venom. Like as if I was transforming as I speak.
I start to see less and less houses as I'm running out of the town.
I see a road leading up the hills.
I notice that there is some sort of lodge up the slopes of the mountain, I head towards the lodge.
My vision is turning a greenish red color and blurring. I feel like I'm rotting and like I'm about to turn into a zombie.
Not just my vision was turning green.
By the time I approached the house I felt like I ate my own stomach, If that's even possible, I limped up to the door and knocked on it.
There was a woman in her late 20's or early 30's approaching the door.
She looked horrified by my presence. I squeaked out that I needed help or else I'd turn.
Woman: "Um...."
Me: "Help. I nee-"
Woman: "You need help QUICKLY. Or else you'll turn into those things!"
Me: "I know."
Woman: "Come inside. Now"
Despite her seeming a little strict, She said she'd help me quickly, But I could tell that It was longer that "quickly".
I collapsed onto the floor, as my vision turned black.
She administered a tonic before I died, so then I didn't turn into those things.
I awoke in a bed, I turned on the lamp and yawned.
My skin and eyes were back to normal, my face was cleaned up, and I had a couple of scratches and bruises on my face.
The woman came into the room and asked how I felt, I said I felt fine.
