As I was about to cut the life in front of me short with a killing blow, a small voice, frantic with fear, whispered “please don’t kill me, I have done nothing wrong.” I halted the swing of my arm midair, inches from her face. I stare into the sky blue eyes of a priestess.

“Remember my face in hell, human.” With that I snapped the neck of the priestess in front of me, and threw the lifeless corpse to the side. Looking around the church, seeing it devoid of life and smelling of blood and death, I once again exit into the daylight.
