Nearly all the roads were submerged in red...

But it was not caused by the sunset which encompassed the whole city.

The all-present blood was the main culprit behind

The towns drowning in crimson. The corpses that could be seen everywhere brought upon the metropolis an atmosphere of doom.

Most of them, around a 1000, were corpses of thieves, bandits, thugs and other Evil doers. All of them had limbs separated from their bodies while their agony-stricken faces were stuffed with their feet.

Their torsos were riddled with countless shallow wounds.

Besides those were also corpses of the Capitol's militia.

Around 300 guardsmen stabbed in their throat was a terrifying sight to behold.

In the middle of this scene of carnage stood a lonely silhouette.

Dressed in a black mantle, which was coated in countless red dots.

The silhouette looked like a thirty year old man with short red hair and eyes with colour of the setting sun. In his glare one could see wrath, rage and blood-thirst.

His right hand wielding a red longsword coated in blood - the tool used for this manslaughter.

Suddenly he gave a sad look towards the ten-year old girl with violet hair, which he cuddled with his left hand. This unconscious lass was clothed in a snow-white dress of better quality. On her pale skin one could see loads of injuries and Bruises also scary mutations - the remnants of tortures and experiments.

The only thing in common for these two people were jewels embedded in their foreheads - the sign of being a primal lord.

His was red, hers violet like amethyst.

Suddenly he looked around and started walking towards the Sealed One's church. He opened the door to this shrine and dropped his weapon, which dissappeard in the air. Then he admired the sculpture of the Sealed One and the four protectors. After a sigh of amazement, he kneeled before the altar, while still carrying the child.

He said :

" Lord. I have sinned. "
