[Center][H3]Lyrena Stomfort[/H3][/center]

"......" Silence, deathly silence. The kind that can only be created by death and destruction of this magnitude.
Lyrena stood motionless, she felt a tear roll down her cheek, however, no sound could escape her lips. The scene was one of such intense horror that she couldn't properly process it. She managed to find some composure and steeled herself for the horrors that would still lay ahead. She walked past numerous houses, gardens, playgrounds even, all were packed full of people and animals, the only thing lacking was life.
She stopped at one of the playgrounds, feeling her lips quiver and her eyes dampening with tears, she threw her head into her raised hands and sobbed aloud, uncontrollably. She saw the lifeless bodies of children laying unnaturally on the ground, some of them didn't even have time to leave the equipment they were playing on, some had probably been too young to even know what was going on around them as they watched their terrified mothers desoerate attemlts to reach them before their attackers. 
Lyrena looked away and moved in the opposite direction as fast as she could, she tried desperately to rid herself of the image she had witnessed, her efforts were in vain.

A noise, perhaps it was just the wind? Or the restless spirits clutching to this world, longing for the lives they lost.
No, it was definitely a sound, human, and close by.
She looked around, her eyes sore from the tears as well as the fumes of the burning houses. However she managed still to locate the source of the noise, a short way off in a clearing to her right she saw an overly large figure accompanied by a few others, she pulled an arrow from her quiver and drew down her bow, unthreatening but prepared was she as she approached the group.

Cyril she noticed first, the young Prince of Barcea, if he was here then this people must be his Sentinels, they definitely would not have played any part in this catastrophe. She looked at him and addressed him personally before any of the others.

[B]"Your royal highness, my name is Lyrena and approach with peace. Please sir, please tell me what happened here, who did this?"[/B] She asked, trying to conceal another bout of tears.
