Back at the old kingdom of the humans, the citizens were overjoyed that the knights defended the kingdom successfully, as they celebrated blissfully unaware of the casualties suffered. Many of the knights lost their lives, less than half of the 7500 in their forces were all that remained. Within the kingdom itself, the council had a meeting with the highest ranking out of the knights, the captain of the knights, second in command, and of course Ky and Zarak.
Captain: "Many of our people died out there to protect this land, and you throw a festival!?"
Counsilman 1: "Is it so wrong? Victory over the demons gives them hope for the future."
2nd: "You ignore the truth of the matter! As soon as they recuperate, they'll attack again! Now's not the time to throw parades!"
Zarak: "..."
Counsilman 2: "So what would you do, have our knights recuperate as well? We need the supplies from the civilians themselves to do so. While the festival takes place, our men go into the civilians houses and-"
Ky: "ARE YOU CRAZY!?!? What's the point of protecting our people from harm if we're basically killing them off!?"
Captain: "Food supply is running low not only for the knights, but for the citizens as well. Crops have been burned by the demons and the forests are being destroyed. Our food sources are running out, and this is the result?"
Zarak: "Ha!...of course it is."
Ky: "? Zarak?"
Zarak: "After all, they hope to get us to run out of food, keep the food they're stealing for themselves and run as our kingdom is ransacked by demons."
Captain: "S-Sir Zarak! You out of line! This idea of theirs is insane, but that doesn't mean you should be too, especially to the ones whom we serve under!"
Zarak: "I'm outta line? No, whose out of line are these waists of flesh and fat that sit in front of us!"
Counsilman 2: "...I see your not so keen of our idea. Tell us, what do you propose to do about it?"
Zarak: "Simple. I'll deal with the demons myself, and then I'll lop off your fat heads and put them at the stakes."
Counsilman 2: "Now THAT'S insane. Do you honestly believe tha-AUUGGGHHHH!!!"
Zarak: "The rest of you counsilmembers will end with the same fate as this one when I return from the demon kingdom!"
Counsilman 1: "H-He c-c-chopped of his h-h-head!"
Zarak: "OUT OF MY WAY!!!"
Casella: "...blessed are the peacemakers..."
Jared: "Oh great, she is..."
Casella: "What?"
Jared: "Nothing. Anyway, whats-*cough cough* ugh...what...is all this- *cough cough*" A horridly acrid, or unpleasantly pungent, smoke was all around me. My vision was blinded (again. grr...) but this time the air around me was too hard to breathe properly. I kept walking, looking at the only thing I could see besides my own body, the floor. I kept looking for a light, but everywhere I looked, I saw nothing. I wasn't sure how long it had been but it felt like hours. Eventually, I found writing on the ground. It was very hard to read, especially since my vision altogether was fading, hardly even able to see the ground. I thought I was going to pass out, and I did. But before I did, I was able to read the writing on the ground aloud. It was in a different language from that of common. It looked as if it was supernal. No suprise seeing as which domain I was in.
'Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis.
Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, dona nobis pacem.'
Everything then faded, my mind was blank, and though it seems I was purged, I wondered if that was true, and if it is, where I would end up next...
