Belly Valley Dungeon– 26 Hours After Hive Queen Elimination
Kain didn't like the way the walls pulsed.
Like a heartbeat. A slow, wet, waiting heartbeat.
The air was thick, clogged with something wrong. The deeper they went, the worse it got—fleshy, organic tunnels giving way to something even more sinister. Stone. But not just any stone. Tombstone-gray, carved with names that had no right to be there.
His name was there.
Kain's eyes flicked over a weathered slab half-buried in the dirt. Kain Vasquez, 7th ISSD, KIA.
He spat. "Real fucking funny."
The squad moved in silence. Thirty Exo-Knights. Fourteen Artificial Mages—one lost to the Berserk Flower Knight. And Kain, leading the way, Gauss rifle at the ready. Their boots crunched over brittle bone fragments, the remains of something long dead—or maybe not long enough.
