"Who's the new guy?" A raspy voice asked.

I opened my eyes and took in my surroundings. The room I was in was large and dome-shaped. Small torches rested in intricate sconces, illuminated with green fire. The floor and walls were dark and slimy. They were rigid and looked similar to the inside of a stomach. I lay on the ground in the middle of the peculiar room surrounded by four people who all had glares in their eyes to kill.

The four people surrounding me all looked so different, yet completely alike.

The woman had long, curly, black hair and bright green eyes with no pupils or irises. Dark green splotches covered the area around her eyes and nose, looking strange against her pale skin and her lips were black. She wore a maroon jacket with a teal cloak and long black gloves. On her legs were- There was just a green smoke in place of her legs. She wielded ghostly green swords in each of her hands.

The first man had long blonde hair tied into a tight bun on the top of his head. His face was covered in green glowing scars, and his eyes were also the glowing green with no pupils or irises. Half of his skin was tan while the other half was covered with the dark green blemishes and a small stubble on his face. He wore a light grey shirt with multiple belts and heavy battle armor. He wore fingerless gloves and a navy blue cape with a large hood. A quiver was sturdily strapped to his back and a bow tightly grasped in his left hand. He too had no legs.

The second man had greasy gray hair that went down to his shoulders. He too had the all-green eyes and dark green splotches covering his face. His light skin was covered in green-glowing scars He wore a black shirt with chains, rusted and new, wrapped around him like a python. Wherever the chains rubbed against his body, it would illuminate with a faint green glow. He wore a navy cloak as well and wore black gloves. He also had no legs, just the green smoke. He stared at me, twirling the end of one of his newer chains absently.

And the skeleton. He had no hair and the places eyes should've been glowed the same ghostly shade of green. His skull was covered in the dark green splotches, and he had no lips only a toothy grin. He wore a sky-blue shirt with black buckles and belts all over. He wore no gloves; only his skeleton hands came out of the sleeves of his shirt. Just like the other three, he had no legs only the dark green smoke. He pointed a scythe right at my face.

And they all had a green glow to them.

"Who are you?" The one with the bow and arrows asked.

"I should be asking you the same thing," I answered, slowly beginning to stand up.

"Ha, ha, very funny." The same man answered. "Answer, or there will be consequences." He gestured to the skeleton, who brought his weapon closer to my throat.

"I just died, I don't know where I am, and I want to leave."

"You can't leave here, mate. This is the Cursed Realm." The man with the silver hair spoke up. "Nobody gets out."

"Then can you at least tell me who you are?!" I felt my patience wearing thin.

"I'm Bansha." The woman said, her voice low and raspy. "I've been here for one hundred and thirty-four years. I was an assassin before I died, until one day I was caught and they ripped out my throat. Now, Master had been gracious enough to make sure they regret what they did."

"Swell." I rolled my eyes, then looked at the man with silver hair.

"My name's Wrayth." He smiled, showcasing a mouth full of missing and gold teeth. "Before I died, I was a simple thief. One day I stole from the wrong people, and they put me in chains until I died."

"And you-" I looked at the other man.

"I'm Goultar!" The skeleton spoke at such a decibel, I jumped. "I was a bodyguard until boss pushed me into lava, now Goultar is a skeleton!"

"Assuming he's not the brightest of the bunch," I muttered under my breath.

"Guess that leaves me." The man with blonde hair sighed. "I'm Samual, but people down here call me the Soul Archer. I was a simple man, helped people with a job, got paid, and then went to the next town. One day, I made a deal with a kid. He said if I helped him get rid of his alcoholic dad, I'd get all of his inheritance. It turned out he kid was a con artist, and long story short, I died trying to get out of the hole he pushed me in, figuratively, and now he owes me a large debt before he dies, or he's comin' here with me."

I blew a piece of hair out of my face.

"Now tell me who you are." Samual pointed an arrow at my face.

"I'm Morro. I was a student of someone who lied to me, and I died trying to prove him wrong." I answered bitterly.

The skeleton and Samual withdrew their weapons and allowed me to get up on my own two feet.

"What do I do now?" I asked, throwing my hands up into the air.

"You have been placed in our coterie," Bansha started. "And we are the highest-ranking inhabitants of the Cursed Realm."

"So?"

"That means you must have some reason to be in here. Let us take you to our Master."

Did you guys enjoy!? Geez, I hope so!
