Nocturnals: A Narrative Fiction

Improved Essays
“The shadow beasts are nothing compared to the nocturnals. The nocturnals are powerful creatures that can stand toe to toe with heavenly spirits like myself.”

“I’ve trained to become stronger, I won’t lose to anyone or anything. Eido we have to fight, I have to get to Pele. I want to hurry up and go home.”

“The numbers are too great, Isaac. If there was single nocturnal then fighting would be an option, but their numbers are too much for us by ourselves.”

“We can at least try right?” Isaac asked. “I don’t want to take forever to get to Levens. I think can handle a few of the shadow beast myself.”

“I understand how much you want to go home Isaac, but we have to be smart about this.”

“You’re right.” Isaac said. “We can walk around.”

The tales of The Thousand and One Nights dated back to the ninth century or even before, are cited in some Arab sources.
