Chapter 3.5-12

== Avery ==
(OUTDATED, MUST REREAD EXCERPT AND REWRITE)
Avery travels through the wilderness with only his companion - the last living kitsune - Nakigitsune. The last time we saw him, he faced off with Elenai then pushed away his adoptive father Kenlow. The darkness he runs from looms in the sky. He converses with Nakigitsune, who he has given the nickname Naki, about menial things. They express their hunger and exhaustion but Naki makes it clear they no longer have the luxury of stopping to enjoy themselves. They'd need help to do anything but run from the darkness, who the kitsune says is Somnium. Avery makes it clear he will not turn to anyone.
The sky has faded to welcome the dawn. Naki wants to go into the Spirit World to get food but is denied by Avery. Somnium has great power in the Spirit Worl and could easily catch them. Defeated, Naki sulks and his tummy growls.
Night began to take its course. The black smoke of Somnium's presence mixes in with the deep blue sky. Naki couldn't stop himself from napping. Meanwhile, while fiddling with a satchel of rations, Avery is confronted by a man in black robes and white hair. Naki's peaceful nap is disturbed by Avery yelling "It's Drayon!" The two escape and avoid a fight, this time. After many hours of running Avery trips down an incline and collapsing with his Kimono dirtied and his mind lost. He is visually unhappy.
Weeks later, Avery's walk is accompanied by a slump, and his eyes are plagued with heavy bags. The fox is eager to cheer him up by giving Avery a well-deserved pep talk. He urges him to turn to somebody for help and to not push people away. For the first time, Avery agrees, but much to Naki's dismay says they should've manipulated Kenlow for protection. The duo quiet down and stare up to the sky to see the darkness encroaching again. Avery notes no matter how far he runs, it always catches up.
