Nanase wondered if this was something that had happened to countless people prior. Being thrown into the void by the whims of great powers that moments ago they did not even fully realize even existed, she wondered if she was about to suffer a fate similar to countless people. To dream of a great adventure only to die pathetically at the very beginning, only catching a glimpse that they had no time to even understand or comprehend. 

She was not a physically strong girl. Her gym grades were average and she did not partake in any sort of martial arts or fencing classes. She did not feel confident in beating these snake creatures, the Great Naga - not that she would know what they were; she was a student of the occult, not one of these mainstream religions. 

The only reason why she went for the sword was because there was no other option. It had been the default, only thing to do. Even if this was meant to be a god's mockery of heroism, she knew that this sword would be better than nothing. Fully aware that her life was being toyed with, strangely that did not seem to bother her - but it would not really have surprised anyone who understood Ichimiya Nanase. Life was constantly something to be toyed with by higher powers. It was just that that higher power was making her that much more aware of it. If she was to die, then there really was no way to escape. It would be set in stone, and nothing would change it. If she was not to die, however, then there was nothing that would change that either. 

And with that, she grasped the sword and sheathe  in her hands and unsheathed it, wondering if some ability or power would reveal herself and give her a better chance than normal high school girl vs a creature of myth.
