Traveling to give thanks

Traveling to stone

D

arkness surrounded him. But it wasn't due to the sun going down. Where was he? His body was all numb and he could barely move his feet from the lack of strength in it. What had happened? The ground below him jumped up a little and as he landed back down on it he realized he was laying on a wooden floor. It was hard, cold and hadn't even been properly worked. A couple of voices began to speak but it was mere mumbling to Emi as the sound was being reduced to basically just a whisper. Had he been captured? Emi forced up his upper body with a yank, but half way through the movement his body came to an halt and his head began to hurt while a warm sensation spread down his face. The chock made him totally freeze in the moment before leaning backwards with his hands covering the area that had been hit. he was used to pain but he rarely was taken by surprise like that, which made the pain even worse. The voices appeared to become quite upset as they began to scream back and forth to each other. Then he could clearly hear one of the voices speak, it was as if he was just mere centimeters away.

Let's just dump him here, Lord Chi'zu won't mind if the boy gets to play a little before meeting him.

Emi then felt how someone lifted up his prison and then the horrifying sensation of falling without knowing when the fall would end. But less than 2 seconds from the drop, the prison landed on the ground and Emi's body became to ache. It had finally woken up. A light filled the small area around him as the lid to his prison slowly opened. It was a blinding yellow light and it took several seconds before he could see the shapes of the nature around him. There were cliffs, mountains, trees and a few rivers within his vision range, but no people. Where was he? and where did the kidnappers go? Emi stood up from the black coffin he had been captured in and took a few stumbling steps forward.
