Darktown Funk: A LitRPG/GameLit Adventure (The Bad Guys Book 9)

“There’s land,” Harpy said. “Under those clouds.”We altered our heading to nearly straight north, and as the sun slid to its zenith, we could see an island. And as we got closer, everything just got stranger, until I didn’t quite understand what I was seeing.It was an island, for sure, and there had definitely been a city there at one point. A very large city on an island that seemed to have everything you might need for a city, basically in the middle of nowhere. There was a gentle hill that had a wide, easy river coming down to the sea. There were white sand beaches and wide open grasslands. There were beautiful canals carved into granite, making it seem like it would have rivaled Venice.But everything above ground level was gone. Perfectly gone. Not one building remained. Not even one brick from a building. No dust, no garbage, nothing. All the trees were gone. Hell, all the shrubs and bushes, gone. And it was done with absolute perfection. Not one trace of how or when it had happened.
