A Sliver of Light
{Enter.}
The sun poured over the open crevice like water pouring into a basin. The flow of the light touched only a sliver of ground at the bottom, but Valerys sat in the middle of this crack of light. She laid down and stared up the cavern walls. To the sky. To the stars and planets beyond, and even space beyond that. Endless space. Her spear, which was about four feet, and her other weapons were laid beside her on the ground. In the event that someone appeared, she trusted her ability to sense that and retrieve the items. She did, however, have a butt bag strapped to her waist. This held 114 senbon, 3 spring razors, 4 kunai, and 4 hira-shuriken. Additionally, she wore her usual clothing. A red skirt and tanktop.
When the wind blew over the top of the crevice, Valerys could hear the whisper of dead allies and enemies. They spoke to her: "Where are you now? While we rot and die by the sword, you move on. What right do you have?"
Valerys couldn't answer that question. Whether it be the gods or her own determination, she was not yet dead. And she would not let the whispering of dead souls dissuade her from life. She had come to the Land of Earth to change the setting of her story, which was usually held within the Land of Wind. Although this land was barren and covered in the rough exterior of stone, there were trees. And flowers. Other plant-life that gave Valerys a sense of adventure. Something close to beauty, although Valerys would never use that word.
She put her hands behind her head and stared through the crevice. The same sun that had shone on her for years in the desert was now beginning to fade as it stretched deeper into the ground.
