Unknown Realm [????]
"Is it the only... way?"
Someone muttered in the uncertainy of [?????] — a lifeless realm of death and wreckage. He gazed on the [???????].
"Yes... It is... the only... way, goddamnit."
Another person chuckled, blood trickle in his mouth, the body wounded beyond death. Still, his voice was composed and his expression, with an incomprehensible relieve.
