Carrying it in your heart
"ugh... Where am I?"
When Fionn woke up, he found himself in a post-apocalyptic version of his own house, completely alone.
"Mom...? Dad...?!"
No matter how much he searched, there was no one, not even when he went outside and saw a post-apocalyptic version of his familiar neighborhood could he find anyone else.
"What's happening? Where am I?!"
(¡¡boom!!)
"What was that?!"
Full of fear and confusion, he tried to find someone else only to stop when he heard a loud crash similar to a fall and saw before his eyes what looked like a monstrous giant dinosaur (kaiju) fighting against a mysterious silver knight surrounded by gray flames.
"¡¡Raaeeeeeonk!!"
("....")
"¡¡Wwooosh!!"
(¡¡BOOMM!!)
While the giant monster roared, launching large amounts of fire from its mouth, the knight instead blocked its flames with his shield.
(Slash!!)
"¡¡GRRRRRRR!! ¡¡RAAEEEEEONK!!"
At the same time that he counterattacked with flying slashes imbued with gray flames, which seemed to damage the monster, making it back away.
"Incredible..."
While the combat, which seemed taken from the pages of a fairy tale, unfolded before his eyes with the knight showing great skill and technique while silently facing the powerful monster that destroyed the uninhabited city, he noticed the rubble of the destroyed buildings raining down from the sky at great speed.
"¡¡Help meee!!!"
Paralyzed by shock and astonishment, he instinctively let out a cry for help at his imminent end in a desperate attempt to survive.
"¡¡Watch out!!"
"¡¡aaahhh!!"
(¡¡buuum!!)
Which fortunately were answered at the last moment before he was crushed by the debris.
"ha... Ha... That was close... Are you okay...?"
"ehh, y-yes..."
"That's a relief."
The one who saved him was a mysterious slender woman with her hair tied in a ponytail, wearing an explorer's outfit.
"Lately there have been more cases of people accidentally crossing the veil, you're lucky that it mistook your scent for his, or else I might not have arrived in time..."
The woman began to talk about many things at once, leaving Fionn confused, but with a genuine desire to thank her and doubts about his situation, he decided to speak.
"¡¡Thank you so much for saving me!! My name is Fionn!! Can I know your name?!"
"ohh, I forgot to introduce myself, and as for saving you, you're welcome, after all, I think I mistook you for someone..."
"You mistook me for someone?"
"Yes, it's someone I'm looking for, but that has nothing to do with you, so let me introduce myself, my name is Tanya, the seeker, and it's time to take you home."
And so it was that Fionn learned of the existence of the veil, leaving an impression so strong that it would last forever in his heart.
What do you think?
