Darkness, that was all Vicar could see, nothing but eternal darkness. The sounds were muted, as the air was stale, and he simply felt numb. It seemed the world had simply ceased to exist. This must of been the end for Vicar, those monsters must of done to him what they did to all of his friends...to his family. This was probably a good thing he supposed. I mean lets be honest now, was there anything worth living for? Would it even be worth it to survive that nightmare? To live in the hell that shall surly fallow? No. This was a good death fighting for the survival of all that he loved and held dear, yes this was a good death as good as any that could be had. His life was that of a good faithful man, surly the Goddess would reward him for it. Hell all he would have to do now is wait to be reunited with every one he had loss. Yes it was over now, now it was time for the Goddess's embrace. 

 Suddenly though that dark numbness was pierced by a shot of pain, his whole body arched as cursed that pain. Not because he couldn't handle it, no it was mild, but for one simple fact. It only hurts to live, death is painless. So he was alive. At that moment his eyes opened as he let out a groan and could feel something heavy around him and it felt as though he was buried. Everything started to come back to him as he pushed up, lifting out of the wreckage of his home and he looked forward dawns first light yet to break the horizon as the chilled early morning air hit him. 

 His eyes swelled as he could feel the water running down his cheek. In a burst of energy he dashed forward "no..no" he kept repeating yelling lifting up beams and tossing them aside as he tried to un-burry what remind of his family. He must of seen it wrong, he was under stress form the attack, they were fine as they were simply knocked out like was when the building collapsed, they were fine. 

 So he tore through the rubble tossing it aside, and his hopes were looking good as some of the rubble shifted and he could hear a grown "Delilah I knew you were alive" he said rushing over and pulling the rubble off looking down he saw his wife, holding there two children. Only it was a scene that few should ever witness. His beloved eviscerated as the two monsters that had attacked her were that of his children. There bodies mangled from the collapse of the building they could barly move and clawed at him groaning. "I'm sorry..I'm so sorry, I couldn't protect you" he said as the tears rolled down to his cheek and he fell to his knees. With out a weapon he found a broken splintered round piece of wood. From the battle he saw these things survive so much, but stabbing them in the head, or cutting it off seemed to put them down for good. So he grabbed his children and stabbed that stake through there heads and then moved to his wife finishing her off. 
 
 The deed had been done as he stood up and he looked at the stake, the thick congealed blood didn't even drip as he was entertaining the thought of simply driving that stake through his own heart. Let death truly come to and take him away from this place. But he couldn't so he simply dropped that stake and fell to his knees and looked up closing his eyes. He was filled with guilt for surviving after so many had died. 
 
 As he sat first light broke the morning haze and he could feel the warmth of the suns rays wash over his face as his eyes opened once more. He was reminded of what he was, of who he was. He was a guardsman. He swore his life to this place, and though it was gone he couldn't of been the only survivor. Duty, that was all he had left, he needed to warn the kingdom. Nothing else mattered anymore. So he searched through the rubble until he found his sword and his shield, puting the sword in it's sheeth around his waist he strapped the shield to his arm. 

 He moved heading towards the Berrecks, where the jail cells were. If anything it was one of the most secure buildings in town. There might be survivors, as well as extra equipment. He pushed opened the door as it swung on the hinges, not a good sign. Walking through his heavy steps feel on the wooden floor creaking it as he looked over. The keys for the cells hung on the hook, which meant no one opened the door, more bad signs. Grabbing the keys he went over, opening the large metal door that lead down int the cells as he walked down those dark steps and out to the cells. It appeared that the only guest were those who were already there. 

 He looked from beast to thief. Reza was his name, and this wasn't the first time that Vicar had arrested him and they were fairly familiar with each other. At least enough that if Riza didn't know what happened he should be able to notice the difference in Vicar himself, the his once happy and warm face seemed replaced by one much colder as those eyes that could almost be childish now looked simply dead "You're free to go, Everyone else is dead, and the monsters that killed them our still out their. I don't like you, and you don't like me. But I need to warn the kingdom, and for that I need help. After that is done I honestly don't care what you do" With that he unlocked the cell. 

 Next was that large beast, looking at it he paused for a moment. Trusting the thief, was one thing, but this was some sort of killer animal. Looking at that large creature as he didn't even notice but he had unlocked the cell. Slowly he walked in watching that animal, "Remember me, I fed you" at that moment he was struck with a memory of only day ago. His kids wanted to see this monster that the guard found roaming around so he brought them. His daughter for some reason seemed completely unafraid of it. Maybe that was why he was doing this, letting this thing free. Casue he honestly didn't undersand it himself. Soon though he was un locking it's chains "easy' he said as soon they were all undone and he would be able to shake them off.
