Monts into their walks inside the accursed forest, l lost control over all of her senses. Her vision was the first to flee, then as fear gripped her heart, her mind, body, and eventually her consciousness died off one after the other. Thrown into a limbo–a cycle between death and purgatory, her eyes opened once more, but instead of flesh, she found herself to be made of roots and branches.
'W-what's happening?!' She wondered, her mind racing rampant.
Looking around despite lacking any eyes, she quickly realized her predicant but didn't rember how she got there. And with a blink, everything changed before her eyes again. Now being worked on by a sculptor, her body slowly ca to be. Yet confined by her body of wood, she couldn't move a finger or speak.
'Where am I? Where did everyone else go?!' The more her mind raced, the faster the ti before her flowed. Landing herself under a layer of clear resin, she was now trapped inside a table used by so royalty.
Her belly was torn open, they'd sown seeds inside her body, and they progressively sprouted more and more, she could finally feel sothing, pain. As if her very veins were being filled with molten tar, her mind and body began collapsing on itself, even though the wood sculpture didn't seem to be affected one bit.
'AGHH! FU-FUCK! GET OUT! THIS HURTS! THIS HURTS!' She wanted to cry but she couldn't, she wanted to scream but she couldn't. All she could do was watch as days passed while the royal family neglected her body until it was completely hidden underneath the growing saplings from her own belly.
That's when she heard it, the voice of her torntor, as coarse as chalk on board, and yet sweet as honey.
"licia, an orphan, a disappointnt so large her progenitor tossed her the goddess' doorsteps," with a cackle, the voice grumbled in her head.
'W-who are you?' She demanded as ti raced once more.
Now toppled onto the ground with insects and worms all feasting on her rotting body, a flood of hurt washed over every inch of her being, she could feel them nibbling like a thousand needles being pricked into her eyes. And to make matters worse, they kept laying their eggs inside her body which only led to more creatures tearing away at her rotting self.
'ST-STOP THIS! H-ELP! HELP !' She begged, but the voice only laughed.
"Oh the agony in your voice, how I've longed for such a delicious al!" Reaching out with a dark hand, the monster stabbed its sharp fingers into l's eyes.
'UGHHH! NOOOOO! FUCK! G-GODDESS HELP !' Even though her flesh was now made of wood, the pain from getting her eyes punctured was as excruciating as possible.
Cackling at her pain, the creature tornted her further. How? By altering her sense of ti, and making the hurt last forever. Even if she were to escape his grasp, she'd have to carry the scars of agony as long as she's alive.
"Your goddess won't help you, not inside the domain of a dark general, kehekehehe!" Its slitted lips moving next to l continued to make her mind bleed out of hopelessness. "Nobody will save you, you're a reject after all. Ehahahaheehahsbsh! Why do you think you were abandoned? They hated you the mont you were born after all! KESHSKEHEKS!"
Its voice growing more and more incomprehensible as it laughed, froze l's mind in fear, for she had no idea what the hell she was a prisoner to, much less when or if help would ever arrive.
'SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UPPPPP!' Trying to drown out its words, she scread inside her own head. But instead of making it any better, her attempt to silence it only made it more vicious in its attacks.
"Rape? Incest? Maybe even a half-bred beast, that's how you must've been conceived, how else do you explain a parent's lack of care for their child? Unwanted bastard of a girl, keeping up her whore mother's legacy by cheating behind her lover's back too, akakakakahhheeehiii!"
'SHUT UP! I-I DIDN'T KNOW WANNA DO IT! IT-IT'S JUST HAPPENED!' Her eyes tearing up, l wanted to disappear out of existence. She no longer cared what happens or even if her companions were suffering from the sa. All she wanted at that mont was to die, rather than let this shade keep toying with her in every horrible way.
'WHAT THE HELL DO YOU EVEN WANT?!' She demanded, and the monster responded in a whisper.
"To live in your mind, torturing every one of you, forever and ever!" Like a rat's squealing, it began to laugh.
Its laughs, however, were quickly cut short as a mont of weakness suddenly took over its entire being. Feeling itself losing control, the illusion shattered like glass, and the body of the archer disappeared right before him. Left dazzled by the sudden change, the horror could feel itself growing weaker and weaker but with its form limited in people's minds, it had no clue why that was.
"Why in the hell would you go in there?" And while it was left confused, Helga had already carried l as well as the other two's bodies outside the accursed forest. Dropping them off like logs in front of Erika and Aria, she glanced over their unconscious bodies, each suffering from a different kind of ailnt.
"Nonononono!" Her heart pounding at the sight of her friends whom she presud to be dead, Eriaka quickly rushed over to Helga, all the while, Aria was simply too stunned to even move from her place.
"They're alive," kicking l's thigh, Helga managed to fully pull the archer out of the horror's charm.
Even still, staying unconscious, she was still suffering from nightmares as a result of the monster's torture.
"Morons, why not take a stroll around your usual spots? You're clearly not ready," having her leg shoved away by Erika, Helga scoffed in the priestess's face. "Just take them inside the tent, I need that monster in their heads still, and the only way to get it out without killing them is to wait for them to break free of the illusions themselves."
Stepping away from the bodies, Helga let the priestess and dark elf take care of their friends. However, even then in the back of her mind, all she could think of was getting that horror out of their heads so she could kill it once and for all.
Note: For those who read for lewds lol, it's coming once the serious parts are over XD
