I had just saved seven women from the dozen bandits that had been raping them, and it took a couple hours before it really hit me that I had murdered twelve real people.

I will go ahead, keep coming though stay alert. Sapphire can tell you about some of the things I dealt with. Hopefully you won't have to."<br/><br/>He ran ahead, toward the smoke.
