THE BEAST Its big disgusting foot moved through the wild as it sought to take a creature into its worm-infested mouth. It was as thorough as ever owing to the many things that had come out of it loins. The animals and insects fled as he came around because it was a gruesome sight to behold. There was no-one who could have been there to understand what all these meant. It was an inexcusable thing, disgusting to say the least.

Now, we had three already running (away from us) beasts in the Meditation realm and two in the Ethereal Ascension realm. Toby, Tang and Chang immediately chased after the fleeing Meditation realm beasts, with one of them shouting, “Hey, wait for us! We barely just arrived!” A few of the girls chuckled and grinned, some were stone cold and others, just curious. Toby shouted, “The land is muddy, watch out!” The beast he was chasing immediately fell into a porthole that'd appeared from nowhere. “Seems like it

​"The Stag is elusive. It moves through the shifting mists of the Ravine of Echoes. It sees the heart, not the rank. Go." ​Diana and Brielle don't wait. They vanish into the timber with the practiced, athletic grace of purebloods who have spent their lives in private hunting preserves. I take a deep breath, filling my lungs with the damp, morning air. My wolf is already awake, her ears swiveling toward the distant sound of a hoof hitting stone. ​I don't need a bow. I don't need ivory leathers. I plunge into the brush, my tattered silk snagging on thorns as I let the wild take me.

Black smoke slithered between tents like a sentient being watching and searching. On the far left side of the camp, she could see a large group of beasts gathering. Embertaurs with their shadowy bodies and yellow eyes made up about a third of the group, but the other were unlike any creature she’d seen before. Biped beasts with dark feathered wings and scaled heads with four eyes clicked their strange beaks. Creatures that had bodies similar to those of alligators but with long necks flicked forked tongues and swung their clubbed tails.

"But baby, I want fast and hard."

She was at the branch of the tree and the beast had almost reached her. The stone beasts were the beasts that had attached themselves to the alligator beasts the other time. Causing the drowsiness and misbehaving of the beast. It was also the stone beast that had caused the alligator beast to fall asleep. Finally, as fast as the beast could craw, it reached the branch of the tree, where Liza was. "Arrrgh!!" Liza shouted as the beast got attached to her arms. "Get it off me, get it off me... Arrrgh!"

Zinjo gripped a strap on the side of the crate. Aurelia grabbed the other, and nodded, "Let's end this." The young lovers expected to meet resistance from the lizard creatures, and not the land. Thick squishy mud, almost brought their progress to a grinding halt. When they weren't arguing with the mud, they contended with the underbrush. "I see why they take to the trees," Aurelia sliced thick vines with the parasol blade. "Indeed, it also tells us they are hindered by the same obstacles as us..." He trailed off and pointed to the large two-horned abominations, "The enemy is just ahead, are you ready to try the new tactic?"

It was very possible for aliens to have visited before. Just then, however, up to a hundred feral beasts appeared and charged toward Wilbur. Cameron and the others were shocked. How did these beasts still have the courage to challenge Wilbur? Would that not just be a one-way ticket to hell? Wilbur's expression darkened. His thunder cleaver lit up with spiritual flames, buzzing with sparks of lightning. He shot out at high speed, passing through all the beasts.

"There, my fearless alpha, lies the path to new territory! It's rumored to be guarded by the ferocious 'Fluffy-tailed Guardians.' Are you ready?" ‌ Andrei, his competitive spirit ignited, nodded with a grin. "Fluffy-tailed Guardians, you say?

The tiny creatures chattered angrily and hurled acorns at them, which resulted in a flurry of dodges and exaggerated leaps.
