I woke up in a forest later that night. The nightmares have yet to go away even though I have begun my journey torwards the east. If this keeps up I will go completely insane within a matter of weeks, or maybe even days. I fall back down onto the cold grass and stare up at the moon shining through the trees above me. I ponder the events of the past few days in my head. I did not dare to stay in an inn the the last town I visited, for I feared that I might destroy that town with my presence just like I did with Tristram. I have yet to run into any hostiles on my journey but I have heard stories of Bandits in these parts. The dream was pretty much the same as last time, screaming villagers, demons ripping off the villager's limbs while their still alive... however this time there was a new demon among the group. He was black, maybe it was because he was in the shadows. He had tentacles flowing about him like some sort of sea creature. I immediatly recgonized who this was yet I have never seen him before. He was Baal, the lord of destruction one of the three prime evils. After I saw him I uncontrollably said "brother" in a cold tone then the dream ended. I need to stop thinking about Diablo, it is slowly driving me insane. I clear my mind and fall back asleep for the rest of the night...
I wake up to the sounds of... carrions? Shouldnt it be singing birds? What the hell is going on here!? I hear no singing birds what so ever as if their afraid to even speak in my presence. The carrions seem to have no problem with me... maybe it's because of, him? No I cannot start thinking such things. I get up and pick up my sword and once again set off on my journey torwards the east. About an hour after I began travelling on the road again I hear arguing not far from my position. I stop and look around, nothing but the sun shining on the green of the trees and the dirt road beneath my feet. Then I hear movement in the forest, three men step out from behind the tall towering trees.
"Well looky what we got here." The lead one says in a taunting tone.
"Travelling alone eh? How foolish." The one to his right says.
"Hand over your gold and we may let you walk out of these woods alive... freak." The one on the lead's left says.
The three bandits laugh. I just stare at them for a minute before they speak up again.
"Hey, you deaf freak?" The one on the leader's left says.
"Bah, we gave you a chance. Let's kill him boys." The lead bandit shouts out.
My vision turns blood red for five seconds and I lose control of my actions.
"What the hell are you freak!?" The lead bandit questions in a shaky tone.
"Uh boss I think we should... umm get the hell out of here! His eyes just turned red damn it!" The bandit to the leader's right shouts out in a frightened tone.
"Bah, don't be afraid of him. ATTACK!" The lead bandit shouts to his comrades not shaken any more.
I pull out my sword and hold it up in defensive position. The three bandit's all charge at once each holding two daggers each. I easily take advantage of the frightened bandit that was on the leader's right side. His charge was reckless... when he nears me I swing my sword and chop off his head. The bloody head falls to the ground still dripping forming a pool of blood. The body still moving collapses right next to the head oozing out more of the red liquid. The other two bandit's seem to not care about the loss of their comrade and continue attacking. I cast chain lightning at one tree and the lightning reflects back in my direction, I step out of the way surprising the bandit who was trying to backstab me. The lightning shocks him. He lets out a loud scream of agony and falls to the ground dead. The leader of the group looks frightened for a bit then lets out a shout of rage and runs at me. The red vision comes back and fades a few seconds later as I just stand there waiting. Finally the bandit gets close enough and with little effort I thrust my sword into his stomach. The bandit lets out a surprised gasp, I twist my blade around inside his stomach, then put my foot up to it and force him off to the ground. I look at my now bloody sword and look down to the bandit leader.
"What the hell are you? a demon?" He lets out with his last dying breath and gives his last. Blood oozes from the wound in his stomach as he remains silent and still on the dirt road.
I coldly turn back torwards the direction I was originally headed in and moved on not caring about the battle that just occured. I place my sword back into my sheathe and realized that with that battle, I just lost more of my sanity....
