They traversed the old battlefield for several more days. By the end of the second week, there were so many dead Nightmare Creatures and ghostly ships floating in the still water, surrounded by debris and broken weapons, that it became almost impossible to navigate between them. A strange haze hung in the air, limiting how far they could see.
With no other choice, Cassie raised the Chain Breaker higher, and they flew above the scene of harrowing slaughter.
The Great River was littered with rotten husks of massive abominations, debris, and shattered ships. Shrouded in the somber twilight, they covered the water like a horrid carpet. That carpet stretched into the distance, eventually disappearing in the haze.
Sunny was appalled and shaken by this sight.
'How many people died here?'
He was no stranger to battlefields, but this one seemed especially somber and poignant.
