[ Violence ] [ Gore ] [ Death ]
.....
The carriage moved further into the dark forest.
Everyone else was asleep, but Ivery sat up in the bed wide awake, flipping through several books she found about the areas they'll be going through during the journey, including Ridgefall.
Luther slightly groaned and opened his eyes, finally awakened by the constant sound of pages flipping.
”What are you doing...?” Luther's voice sounded raspy as he turned his head to ask her
”Research.” Ivery responded
”Right now? Can't you do that in the morning?” Luther asked
”It probably is already morning.” Ivery replied
”Maybe, but you should still get some sleep....did you even sleep?” Luther sat up and asked
”No.” She shook her head and continued to flip through the pages in the book she held
”Alright, enough of that.” Luther took the book out of her hands
He tossed the book on the couch that was quite a distance from the bed.
”Wait-” Ivery slightly frowned
”No more reading, sleep.” Luther said and lightly pushed her down on the bed
He placed his hands on her eyes.
”Sleep.” Luther said
”I'm not tired.” Ivery sighed
”If you keep your eyes closed long enough, you'll fall asleep eventually.” Luther smiled
”Just let me finish reading the book and then I'll go to sleep.” Ivery tried to move his hand off of her eyes
”No.” Luther said
”Come on.” Ivery whined
”Since you won't go to sleep on your own...” Luther sighed
”....” Ivery felt like she knew where he was going with this
”I'll have to put you to sleep myself.” He smirked
”Luther! Wait...don't...” Ivery tried to plead with him

”Too late.” He smiled

His hand over her eyes glowed and immediately Ivery fell fast asleep.
He took his hand away from her eyes and she was already in a deep sleep, Luther only lightly used his power of sedation just to put her to sleep faster, but the fact that she fell into a deep sleep so quickly meant that she was exhausted.
”Sorry, but you need your rest....” Luther leaned down and kissed her forehead
....
A few hours passed by and everyone in the carriage slept peacefully.
Until...
*????????????????????*
The carriage slightly bounced up, jolting everyone who was sleeping awake.....
Everyone except Ivery.
The carriage stopped moving.
Luther sat up and got out of bed, he walked to the room door and opened it.
”What happened?” Danya and Yannel walked out of their rooms with dazed and confused looks
”I don't know.” Luther said as he walked to the carriage door
He pushed the door open outward and stepped out of the carriage.
Luther's eyes glowed and he scanned the area for anything that could've been the cause of the carriage halting.
”Hm...” Luther's eyes instantly saw something strange underneath the carriage wheel
He crouched down and slightly smirked.
It was a disfigured mutilated human body stuck underneath the carriage wheel. The body was completely skinned, exposing its flesh and bones.
It still looked fresh.
”What's wrong?” Danya stepped out of the carriage and asked Luther
”It's just a dead body.” Luther nonchalantly answered
