Chapter 3
It was the same. Days have passed, I'm stil confused about this medallion. Those signs are giving me headache! Everyday, there's the exact pain I felt and I have gotten used to it already. But something is missing... It feels like I need to do something with this medallion. But what exactly is it?
But that already gave me the clue, maybe I need to find these signs...
It must be somewhere around this place right?
But what bothers me is... is this really prison? The guard keeps on calling me a lowlife, slave, and a mortal... The food are somewhat suspicious that I'm beginning to notice it.
"Focus!" I mentally shouted to myself. I stood up from the bunk bed and began to look for anything strange. I grabbed the medallion and held it tightly, afraid that I may lose it while searching. I searched everywehre! The bunk bed, the walls, the cells, almost everywhere! I can't find anything at all! I sighed in disappointment as I sat on the edge of the bunk bed again. Looking down at the medallion, I said to myself, "Is this really the key to freedom?"
'Ruin of the Heart'
Those words... AGAIN! Those words keep on coming back! What does it mean?! Why is this happening?! Do I need to fill my heart with despair or something?! Ugh, I can't take it! I sighed once again and buried my face with both hands.
The door busted open once again. I grew a certain hatred to that guard. I expect that he'll be shouting non-sense. He can't even bother to leave me alone.
"Here..." Wait, it's a different one. The gentle voice I heard besides the guard the first time I woke up. What was he doing here? I looked at him and saw he was holding a tray filed with food. This time, it isn't those disgusting things, it was meat.
I retrieved the tray and silently thanked him. That's quite odd if you asked me, if all the food I see in this wrecked place are like monster vomit or whatever the hell they're eating, why is there meat? Gah, I'm not good with these kind of stuff. "Wh-where did you get this?" I asked him.
"...Somewhere..." He answered my question. His answer kind of confused me but I noticed I hint of despair and disappointment. What's with him? Not to mention his voice is somewhat familiar. There I go again, familiarity. What's wrong with me? Why do I keep on saying that everything is familiar?
'You.... stop....this........!!'
I gasped, surprising the guard in front of me. That was weird... It was the exact same voice... "Do I know you?" I asked him with confusion. A dead silence was my only answer. I was nervous, why did I say that? Great, I just asked a weird question to the one who's helping me!
"...Somewhere..." His voice sounds more depressed. I can't help but feel bad for asking that question, he also said the same thing. He's definitely hiding something. "You have to eat, I'm not going to be here for much longer." He sounds normal now, no more depression.
He doesn't need to tell me twice. I just wolfed down the food and I was finally got to taste the meat I've been seeking for who knows how long already! I'm over here, suffering in starvation, only ate very little of THAT food! Seriously what is that thing?! After I'm done eating, I smiled in delight. Then I remembered something important I need to do. "Where am I?"
He just stood there, looking at me. Silence filled the room. "Rakyrgronnerok." He only said that long word.
Rakyrgronnerok
''It's major bullshit there, you know?'
'I got your back.''
'Don't need your shit, S...!'
"I have to go..." I snapped back to reality. I gave him the empty tray as I watch him reaching for the door. He said something that made me agigated, "Ruin of the Heart." He left me alone in this cold room. Those words.... AGAIN... It made me sick... It's like my life won't be complete without those words... What does it exactly mean?!
"Ugh..." I slammed myself on the bed and buried my face with my hands, "Ruin of the Heart... What are you doing messing with my life?" I muttered. Little did I know, that there was a sign that I can see faintly above me. I gasped at the mysterious sign and quickly grabbed the medallion. I look at the sign and back at the medallion.
It's quite hard to understand the sign. But I do know that the sign is somehow similar to the sign at the medallion. I touched the faded sign which I immediately regretted because it became much more faded. What I find odd is that I never saw this sign before. Perhaps it has something to do with the "Ruin of the Heart" thing?
I sighed and looked back at the medallion. I didn't realize that the sign I'm seeing was actually a sign from the medallion! It was the same even though the sign is faded! The sign on the medallion is on the second silver ring! Wait, so what do I do with it? Do I need to memorize the signs? Do I have to do something or solve riddles? Why is there a box at the north part anyway?! Do I have to turn the ring so the sign can be inside the box?! What do I- wait, is that it?
