Prologue
He abandoned us, that sick tyrant probably didn't even care about the 2 year old that she held to her chest so tightly. the yellow walls stained with the smell of blood human and demon alike this mansion was practically abandoned and almost collapsing but her will power pushed her on into the darkness, bound by a gods contract to keep the child safe from the demons for as long as she should live. This was her duty as a holy knight, this was her duty as a mother, thus she must push on, even if it meant her demise for this child's glory. A section of the wall seem to collapse but the secret tunnels would still remain.
The walls seemed to blur these tunnels had been used as escape routes for survivors for over 80 years the mountain sturdy and strong a shield from the black sky that plagued the land, Every Month for one day the sky turns black the sun turns red and the demons rage and torment the weak, taking bitter revenge seeking souls as a meal to fill their vile guts. The demons had pushed farther to the east than what was comfortable to her meaning that they could take over many strong holds if they didn't get their in time. looking at the emotionless mage on her left and the hell bound hunter on her right anxiety crept up her neck these two were not to be trusted. after all they were "his" men. 'I should probably take them out as soon as we get close enough' bitter thoughts took up her mind.
"Madame let me carry the child for a while" the hunter beckoned for her to give him the child her gut twisted and then glared. "I'm fine, This much is fine" her voice hissed out venom, though she didn't mind venom because it showed her wariness. Warning them not to get close. The hunters face fell a little in disappointment as he realized she did not trust them as much as they had hoped. They kept on walking then the end of the tunnel inside she stopped at the entrance. putting the child down. she shielded her with her body not letting down her guard.
The tunnel lead into a dark cavern crystals lined the walls and the floor making it harder to navigate through the room because at every corner you were bound to get impaled, the crystals glowed a light blue and gold. making it sickeningly beautiful.
The ground rumbled and the walls shook violently but nothing was happening yet not yet it couldn't be yet. if that beast had awakened it would ruin all her work to escape from that hellish strong hold they were about to come to one of the exits and this was were she would take care of the men that followed her, before she had the chance to wip out the small blade she held against her hip under the grenish blue black stained dress. A low rumble that she well new came again. Fear creaped up her spine and the ceiling started to fall sharp dagger like crystals falling swifty and dangerously close to her head that's when a hole opened in the ceiling and 8 read eyes that held lustful hunger, It dropped down the hole and snapped at the wizard who was unprepared killing the man and slung the corpse across the room, 'its eyes may look hungry but the beast is killing for sport' The beast held 4 long heads that slithered around like vipers on of its thick scaled body, one of its heads was missing, it dragged its headless neck along with every movement not noticing it was even missing the beast was a ebony black and a bloody hole where the gem of a protector crystal used to be on its chest, This beast had once been a holy beast until vile demons stole its crystal killed it and then dark mages resurrected the beast, just to catch unsuspecting runaways and to kill them. Karla Drew her blade and put the child under one of the protective Ledges that had been carved out to put fire would for when gaurds would protect the post in the cavern, a deadly battle erupted between the 4 headed beast and the 2 adults. In which none survived three limp corpses and blood littered the flooring leaving the small child alone in a cavern. the images left to terrify the child for as long as she lived. a black sky above and corpses. not yet able to comprehend the only protectors that she had were now gone leaving her to venture the dangerous world alone. small words came out "mommy?" no person replied only the screams and laughs of demons to fill her small ears.
