While every officer of Paragons was otherwise busy with personal matters or missions, another one of them was busy fighting through the corruption, not unlike Khalor.
Gale, who had gone to crush his fear and trauma of demons, was currently hunting demonic tears, gathering information on them or joining purging expeditions across the continent. He had decided that killing corrupted creatures until he found demons was the way to fix his mental scar.
He was currently waist-deep in a bog, somewhere around the center of the continent, with a troop of fifty templar-looking knights, advancing slowly, staying alert to their surroundings. There was news of a tear opening up in this bog, and the nearby kingdom had sent a group to shut it, Gale tagging along.
