Entry 2:

04:00- The morning before my scheduled execution, Seris and my comrades (the crow mercenaries) raided the prison I was held in and rescued me. We managed to escape the kingdom and take cover in the nearby forest. I was very grateful for their help but I was also worried about their wellbeing. If the Velder army were to locate our hiding spot, we will all be executed for breaking the law. I pushed the thought aside though and decided to scavenge for answers relating to the reason of my capture.

07:00- After a few hours of investigating, I discovered that my arrest had gone almost unnoticed. The town was closed off so that my capture would be easier and cause less commotion. The Velder army had probably predicted that I would go there after my mission. Once I was arrested, the streets were immediately opened up again and that was when Seris found my sword and the bouquet of flowers addressed to her. She immediately knew something was wrong and assembled the rest of the Crow Mercenaries for a rescue party. The team managed to capture and interrogate one of the royal guards for answers. What they learnt was quite shocking to accept, even for me. Turns out that I was accused of murdering Edan in order to become the commander; but what shocked me the most was the fact that Alex was the one who convinced the king to betray me. He was also in charge of all the planning for my arrest. I had been framed by the person I thought was my best friend. Why would he do such a thing? Maybe I should go back to Velder someday and get my answers.

22:00- Although my mind was filled with questions, I still had one more important thing to do before I plan on anything else. I was already a day late so I couldn't stall it any longer. Luckily, the most important gift was still in my pocket. I approached Seris cautiously from behind before I wrapped my arms around her waist and rested my chin on her shoulder. She was startled but smiled when she realised it was me. I gave her a kiss on the cheeks before she turned around to face me with a confused look on her face. I gazed into her eyes before I kneeled down on one knee and pulled out the small box from my pockets and opened it, revealing the gold ring that sat neatly inside. Seris, it's been two years since I've met you and I never once questioned our love for one another. So on this day, would you do me the honour of becoming my wife? I remember the look on her face after I finished my prompt speech; her smile was angelic and tears of joy flowed down her face. She had replied yes with a wavering voice before I slid the ring onto her fingers and our lips locked together.

22:30- Before long, the whole camp had heard about my proposal to Seris so the Crow Mercenaries decided to throw a wedding to commemorate this day. However, just before we even began the ceremony, Alex and the Velder Army located our hiding spot and trashed the whole camp. Within moments, we were surrounded and everyone was slaughtered one by one even Seris. Alex made sure I was the last one to die so I could witness the death of my comrades and fiancé. He no longer had the look of regret on his face; instead he laughed like a maniac as he slaughtered everyone. Once Alex had killed everyone, he turned to me with a ghastly smile before he raised his blade and removed my left arm effortlessly. I screamed as I felt an agonising pain erupt from where my arm once was but I was happy; happy that I could finally die, and meet up with the others. My will had been shattered and I no longer had the desire to live. Alex and the Velder Army left me there to bleed out slowly.

23:45- As I breathed my last breaths, I saw a silhouette loom above me. It offered me a contract; to be reborn with greater power so that I could conquer Velder and have revenge on the ones who caused my suffering. I agreed before blacking out.
