Marvin grabbed his sack and began making his way up the road. Thinking about Cyclops Jackson and the townspeople that had just lost so much, he couldn’t help but feel like he was becoming something of a harbinger of despair. He couldn’t ponder for long, as the sound of a tree hitting the ground off in the distance shook the whole world, or so it felt. Marvin looked over towards the noise, contemplated what could have possibly caused such a ruckus, and casually continued on his way.

 

Skipping through the forest like a tough little guy, Marvin happened upon some strange creatures. A frog with one eye, a squirrel with seven legs, a shark that was a disappointment to his family, no idea was too out-of-bounds with this strange forest. Marvin noticed as he walked that the trees became more misshapen and darker in color, the animals became more fucked up, the sun was less and less visible above. After walking for what felt like ages, Marvin was finally able to see the path that would lead him up the hill to the house. At the foot of the path, a strange man in a suit of armor much too big for him.

 

Before Marvin knew it, he was stabbed in the stomach by the man’s lance. All of the trees melted into darkness, and the animals soon followed suit. The darkness rushed to the end of the man’s lance, traveled up the smooth steel and rushed into Marvin’s open wound, our hero now lifted off the ground effortlessly. The darkness spread, slowly consuming Marvin until he was but a silhouette of emptiness. The knight swung his lance at the shadowy figure in his presence and watched as the darkness wisped away like a bunch of cinnamon in the breeze.
