Deep autumn, there was wind.
The autumn of this world had grown profound.
Amidst the Wilderness, blood-colored mists wafted, filling the forest with a pungent, bloody stench.
In the hollows overgrown with weeds and brambles, rare medicinal herbs exuded strands of an unusual sweet fragrance.
Here, lay broken and tattered corpses. Some bodies were missing large sections, others left with merely exposed skeletal remains, and some were pierced through by sharp weapons or torn apart and riddled with holes by wild beasts.
None of these corpses' eyes were closed in death.
"Dead... all dead..."
A middle-aged woman gazed blankly at the scene before her, and after a long while, she let out a pitiful smile. Then her body transformed into a streak of white light and violently exploded with a "boom," choosing self-destruction.
The fierce blast of energy shattered countless decaying corpses, revealing a relatively intact body with numerous wounds.
