Am so very sorry. I thought about that ending a lot, seeing as a lot of the
reviews I got said it sucked, and I'm inclined to agree. It really does
suck. So, I'm introducing a new char, seeing as I have a new girlfriend now
and she's agreed to let me write about her in this. I'm planning on adding
a few more chapters to the journal, so sit back, relax, get some popcorn,
and...well....yeah...
How long I remained, bleeding there, I had no idea. It was total darkness. Hell, it wasn't even that when I think about it. The only thing I can really say is...it was the absence of feeling. It could've been death, but maybe it was just me being so destroyed emotionally that I couldn't feel anything anymore. When I finally woke up, I was lying on a bedroll, a small fire burning several meters away. Sitting next to this fire was a girl so beautiful, in my eyes that I forgot about Erika, and her fate, for a few moments. But, at the time, I could barely even move, much less think critically. So, again, I fell into a deep sleep.
When I finally healed, the process helped along by one of those neat little vines that ate dead things, I had a little chat with her. She was most relieved that I was still alive, and told me her name was Julie. She seemed attractive to me, but in a different way than Erika. I guess I liked her for her personality and how much we had in common, but I couldn't really put my finger on it. Heh. Imagine my shock when I learned that she was part demon. At first, I thought she was gonna attack and try to eat me alive, which my sword had other ideas, but she just wanted to help and be near me so she knew I was ok. Her words seemed honest at the time... but I know what you're thinking. You're thinking "How can he know? He was almost killed a few pages back!" Trust me. I'm a druid. Druids know things like this.
Eventually, I had to set out. Baal, lord of destruction and all around asshole, had managed to escape me and was attacking the northern regions of sanctuary, which I had only recently learned, was the continent I had existed on for the past few weeks. Again to my surprise, she wanted to come with me, if not to make sure I was ok, then to watch my back. And who was I to refuse such a request?
I have traveled for weeks now, and Julie seems...very agile and powerful. I'd even use the word endurant in some occasions, but lovely in almost all of them. She is sooooo much better than Erika, and I think.... I'm starting to love her. I just hope she isn't taken away from me like Erika was...but, then again; did I ever really have her in the first place?
We've have just arrived in Harrogath, one of the last bastions of power standing between Baal, and this artifact called the "world stone". What said world stone does, I have no clue, but what I do know is that it's big, it's shiny, and it could be worth alot. But, at the moment, I have bigger concerns. This town's council of elders sacrificed themselves to create a ward around this place. That's really the only thing packs of ravenous demons from tearing Harrogath apart like a week old tissue.
Well, I've just spoken to the blacksmith, a building with teeth and arms named Larzuk, about getting some new weaponry, seeing as my great sword was broken kicking Diablo's ass. Managed to get a wicked looking crystal sword and the shield taken from the battered corpse of a mummy. Surprisingly, it still has a good finish on it, and is strong as all hell. But, as I was walking away from him, he said something about a siege, and some dude named Shenk the overseer.
...Shenk? Did his mom really name him that?
