What Have We Done?

I awoke inside a massive crowd, hanging upside down like a prize pig being led to the spit, bound in chain by the armies of hell. My eyes searched for Allison but found nothing in the masses.

"The fires of the dark father will burn bright for the kingdom to see!" The warriors cried. I looked into the black eyes of the dark soul who knocked me cold. Hate lived behind those eyes, terror behind mine. The soul unleashed a fierce growl which ignited the others. I dropped my head, leaving it to dangle back and forth in defeat. We crossed the wooden drawbridge that hung over the swampy marsh, crossing right back into the castle I once walked free from.

Demon warriors lead me into the courtyard. The masses of damned souls made it impossible to see until they parted; allowing me to be carried by my captors through the corridor and into the temple.
