Kaiser's wrath and Glove's reign of terror seems to be beginning to take their toll.

Ancile and the Bushido wander through the Dirt Desert, following a massive herd. "Years, and years ago, this valley was covered in great and vast aqua," the Bushido stated in his American/Mexican/Spanish accent in spite of his Japanese name.

As the Bushido talks, some Ornithomimus get close to the two wanderers. The Ornithomimus are pitch black with white, large blank eyes. They move rigidly, they seem lime zombies. Almost DEAD.

One Edmontosaurus in the herd collapses from dehydration.

"The land as we knew it did not exist, it was swarming with pods of Mosasaurs and plesiosaurs, and we had to live on islands..."

Another hadrosaur falls as the herd passes by a Maresaurus skeleton.

"...but eventually droughts took place, and the sea as we knew it disappeared. It cut down the expanse of the sea by half and drove the mosasaurs to near-extinction..."

Indeed Kaiser's mass slaughter had worsened the wound, for without as much animals to clear out the plants they slowly, but evidently, began to populate quicker. This caused an effect were more carbon dipxide than usual was released into the air, trapping heat and slowly baking up the Rift. It's not too major yet, but the problems clearly there. The fact that Glove sent the Goddamned Bats out to butcher the ecosystem didn't help, either.

The herd slowly began to climb up a steep mountain. One Brachiosaurus lost his footing and slipped all the way down to his death, knocking down several others on his way as well.

The Bushido and Ancile made it to the top and saw miles of desert. "So that leaves one question."

Ancile's one eye quivered. "Where did it go?"

The two sat in silence. Then...

"I understand what Glove and Kaiser's been doing all this time when I was dead. BUT IT'S HORSESHIT! HOW IS THIS SUPPOSED TO HELP ME FIND LAPIS!"

He instantly calmed down.

"...Lapis is my really close friend. She was like a sister(don't ask me how a Stegosaurus and Ceratosaurus can be related, it's figurative) to me. She was my only family after the Viper killed them all. Now that she's gone...I don't know what to do anymore."

The Bushido nodded his big brutal head.

"Hm. I think you must decide something. Where did you and she die?"

Ancile thought for a little. Then...

"I'll see you in hell."

Ancile began to stomp down the cliff with newly gained confidence. The Bushido smiled, and he watched his apprentice walk away in dignity.
