Maria felt the ground shake as she gained consciousness. As she opened her eyes and sat up, she noticed two large beasts chasing a group of humans, while two of them fought the monsters. One was a gunslinger and the other seemed to be some sort of master swordsman. [i]I am definitely in the land of spirits and devils,[/i] thought Maria, quickly realizing her spell to grant immortal life had failed. She knew she would have to fight to survive based on knowledge she had about the Netherworld, or Realm of Evil, as she called it. Moving towards the battle scene, Maria threw a poisonous gas concoction that she had in her satchel at the beasts.

"Come. Leave quick," she ordered to the other humans, "The reptile and winged horror are too strong for now." While running away from the beasts and towards the forest, Maria chanted a spell of agility on the group. Hopefully they could escape... for now.
