A flying city surrounded in a sea of white stretching endlessly beyond the horizon. Its five towers of grey and blue reached up to the heavens like a hand. A silent blue sky hung above whilst the blazing sun showered light upon the world.

Vessels of wood and metal sailed across the great expanse. Strong winds cracked against their massive sails mustering them onward whilst banners of the old world flew atop their masts.

Flanked by nothing but rocks and forests, the winding river crept into the now foreign land as the remnants of humanity sailed into them upon an aging vessel.

Before them lay an abandoned port in ruins. With shattered decks and sunken piers, it was clear that the monsters had ravaged the old harbour long ago. Once a safe haven for boats, the port was a monument of a past age when man stood above all other creatures.

Monsters emerged out of the forests on either side, barreling toward the encroaching boat. Halting a few metres from the water, the monsters growled in anticipation as their supper sailed into port. The passengers aboard the wooden vessel shrieked in fear as their impending doom awaited between the gaping jaws of the starving, savage beasts.

Captain George hails from the city of Cloud Nine. He wishes to visit his nephew who lives nearby at Sky City. He boarded his personal boat and sailed across the sea of clouds. But when he was nearing his destination, there were no more clouds left between him and Sky City. Thus, Captain George began plummeting into the lands below.

As the remnants of humanity were sailing through a narrow gap between two islands, they clutched their weapons tightly and watched  for anything that might pounce on them. Just as expected, two giant monsters came barreling forth from within the nearby forests and growled at the ship full of people. If the man-eating creatures weren't afraid of water, those people would be dead.

I went to sleep that night only to awake on a boat surrounded in darkness. As I drifted down a stream, a montage of images and clips of my memories passed by. Just as it ended, my worst nightmares emerged from the darkness and started chasing after me. Grabbing the paddle on the boat, I began paddling down the stream hoping to find a way out.

Paddling down a gentle river engulfed in darkness whilst a wall of golden images glowed bright to my left, my dream of bliss was interrupted by the agonizing screech of the monsters from a hell I knew too well.

Behind me, I witnessed as five three-jawed horses possessing deep-crimson eyes whilst trailing a black ash galloped across the water. Their riders astride across their backs bore horns where their eyes should have been and reached for me with their long, lean claws dripping of blood and wrapped in chains.
