Island Chapter 13: Knowledge

—————

So far, I’ve learned a bit about this new world of mine. According to Alba, ‘chimeras’ are a sort of hybrid between some of the creatures here and humans. She didn’t seem to know where they came from, only that they’re a rarer sight. The Walking City though, is apparently this large city on the back of a massive Titanosaur, kept alive by blood packs and trade. She promised to take me when this ‘Chris’ character comes back.

I crouched down by the riverbank, sickles in hand. It was daytime by now, which unfortunately still came with the usual tiredness, in my case. I shifted my gaze from the water to glance back at Alba, who was curiously staring back at me from afar, as she has been since I abandoned my cloak to fish. I don’t have the nerve to ask any further.

“You’ve been sitting there for a while!” She called over.

“… Fish.” I pointed at the water with a blade, I really didn’t feel like giving any details.

“Okay…? You got a name, bat?” I watched her cross her arms in my peripheral. I hadn’t considered my own name in a while.

I paused, tilting my head back to look.

“…Ghost.” I moved like one, anyway. A fitting title. “About damn time, should’ve asked when we met.” I smirked, refocusing on the shimmering waters. Gottem.
