Chapter 294: Oblivion Core – Valley of Grief
Samuel's POV
I'd torn through monsters for what felt like hours, maybe days—time didn't flow the same way here. Sometimes the sun refused to set. Other times, night folded in like a suffocating cloak for what felt like weeks.
I didn't care. I was too busy hunting.
But eventually, I stopped when I saw it—a tower. No, not a tower... a monument of bones, twisted steel, and crimson crystal, spiraling into the sky like a scream frozen in stone.
At its base stood a gate—massive, ancient, marked with glyphs I didn't recognize... until my blood reacted.
