Why.....why...this pain. Pain? what is pain...where am i...wh..what am i? Hundreds of thoughts pass through my mind, but none have an answer to my questions. Unbelievable...pain? rocks through my body as i try to regain my clarity.
However i receive no salvation to my suffering as endless darkness envelops me. Now i can only feel two things..pain and hunger. unbelievable hunger! As i start losing my self again to the darkness i feel something pull me.
Finally i feel something pulling at my soul as i regain my vision and some memories. Startled by sudden invasion of knowledge and memories i get dizzy. After regaining my clarity i confusedly i look around myself only to be petrified by the scene around me. There are several..humans running away from seemingly dead creatures.
They look the same in almost all aspects expect these...hollow creatures look like corpses. When i look down at myself i see a gruesome scene.I looked exactly like a corpse would look my chest is sunken in with bones and some internal organs sticking out,my limbs were filled with various wounds and were riddled with arrows and knives alike. Although i could not see my head i could feel something sticking out.
Even though this scene was gruesome to say at least.. i did not find it repulsive at all and merely accepted it. While my body was in a terrible state i was still able to move perfectly fine in fact i even felt...empowered.
Standing up forcefully i rip out few spears that were sticking out of my body and hindering my movement, ignoring arrows and knives in my body i look around my self. There are humans monsters and undead fighting each other with frenzied look in their eyes.
As i watched the scene around me i felt something spark inside me. Being unable to resist this urge that kept growing inside me i jump to the closest creature. It was a 2 m tall and 3m long hound, not noticing me behind it i jump on its back and bury my hand inside the wound on its back.
Finally noticing me it lets out a loud yelp as it starts jumping around attempting to throw me off its back. Not waiting for it to do that i rip out a dagger sticking out of my arm and rapidly start stabbing its neck.
While i managed to stab it few times the dagger was old and rusted so it broke quickly. The hound suddenly jerked violently Causing me to fly off its back. Rolling over i quickly stand up and take a spear that was laying neraby.

The moment i took the spear my body reacted instinctively taking a stance almost as if i knew how to use it. Not thinking much about it i stared at the hound that was rushing at me with frenzied look in its eyes.
Not waiting for the dog to jump at me i take a few steps and thrust out with spear. Feeling the soft flesh tissue being torn apart by spear brought me a weird sense of relief.
While i managed to pierce it with my spear it also managed to bite my shoulder and rip off a large chunk. Not paying attention to the new addition on my body i hit the hound with a handle of spear and push it away.
Just when i was about to stab it again i noticed that it stopped moving completely. At the very same moment white light started flowing out of its body and enter my body gently and nourish my soul and suppressing that hunger inside me. Getting intoxicated by that feeling i stand still for few minutes. While i was shrouded with white light i felt something urge me to find a safer place.
Not fighting against it i pick up the spear and run towards a nearby abandoned house. As soon as i entered the house i closed the rotten door and sat down on floor, sitting still for few moments i felt my mind blank out as i immersed myself in a peculiar state...
-----------------
Unknown amount of time has passed when i felt my consciousness and reason return. The first thing i noticed after waking up is that there were less wounds on my body and that most of other wounds have started closing up as well. weirdly i could feel some scattered memories return to me as well..i felt that they were very important to me but i could not understand anything from these fragments... i needed more.
Remembering what happened before i felt confused, but while i felt confused i also felt strange obsession being born inside me....to sate my maddening hunger and find out my purpose.
Standing up i head towards doors with heavy steps and unwavering determination ready for the new world laid before me.
