And the prologue to my new series is complete! Fans of Console Chronicles will know exactly when this happened. This is rapidly becoming a very fun project. I HIGHLY recommend listening to the music tagged while reading this, as it fits the mood nearly perfectly. I also should say that the music will sort of be the guideline/inspiration for the story.

Pain... Sadness and pain. Those were Vechs constant companions. Well, not all of them. But Vechs wished they were. On the ground next to him, were his friends. The people who he had suffered so much to save, just to be thrown into the same fate that he had.

He saw her red hair, redder with blood, and it brought a tear to his ruined face. He tried to call to her, but it came out as a croak.

Right next to her was Paul, lying face down on the ground, twitching. He had taken three arrows for Vechs and Aurey, trying to save them. His efforts were in vain. As soon as Vechs saw the body fall, and a new swarm of arrows came in, and he tackled Aurey to the ground, hoping to preserve her. He had felt the blood trickle from his back, and still covered her.

The derpy girl tried to save him too, she tried to carry him to shelter. She didn't make it far.

As he lied there, he gave a final glance to everything, everyone around him. BTC was lying on the ground still, surrounded by the bodies of ten skeletons. Jsano was next to Pakk and Kurt, all bloodied. Zisteau was wobbling around, barley alive, using his sign for support. Vechs gave one final attempt to stand up, to help Zisteau get away, but instead lied on the ground motionless as he saw his friend gasp and fall to the ground, arrow in his back.

Vechs shed a tear, and with his final ounce of energy, crawled over to Aureylian. She was still giving short breaths, signs of life. The tears started coming, and he forced his hand over to her face and brushed her hair aside. He stared into her eyes, and let his gaze fade there. A final burst of energy, and he stretched his ruined hand to hers, and squeezed it one last time.

"Rel Rel..."

His vision began to fade, his whole sight was being blackend by deaths shadow, but was interrupted by two spots of green, as bright as ever even amidst the gloom.

"........Vechs............"

And they were no more.

Omg if not for the title I would have a public hanging :D I would even make you tie your own knot. Looks like a very good series. Looking forward to it.

Wow... I went and started up the music even before you recommended it... it fits to well. You, my good Sir/Madam, have found your 'Demons'!(now if you stick to the one song... that would just be so much more awesome)

I think it was a really good idea to have the disclaimer/title... dat rage.

Looking forward to helping with this!

The music really fits the death.. but life after thing. if you were just going for this alone, I think 'Death of a King' would have been better, but the other song help both with the rage and establishing this as a series.
