[ IP ] Fallen Titan

Here comes Lad, jabbing his walking stick into the mountainside every other step. His loyal companion trails close behind wanting shoes. The scene is chilling. A titanic stone valley shoots alarmingly fast into a crevice without life. 
 
 Lad sees the mourning sun cast pink; It grieves over the hero. 
 
 At least, everybody assumes it's a hero. Or was. Adding a certain atmosphere to the valley is a skeleton, which would be titanic but that word has already been spent on the mountains. It's far more impressive than those craggy peaks, for bones are normally smaller. 
 
 A hundred Lads could fit in the eye socket. 
 
 Faced with the immense remains of a not-so-forgotten warrior ( he's part of the local religion ), Lad can only wonder one thing. 
 
 How could he - she? - even walk in the wedge-shaped valley with a floor wide as its foot? 
 
 Anyway, Lad looks at the Sword in the Stone. The mountain did n't deserve it. Legend holds: whoever can retrieve the sword will wield ultimate power, but something about the sword's size says it's not required for said power. 
 
 Well, on with the morning hike, then.
