I made my way back to the Hellish gateway I came through. There was nothing else for me in this fracture. I passed through and returned to the Hell cave on Earth. The bright light blinded me as I surfaced once more.

While the Hell portal had been closed for quite a while, the city was still overrun. I went building by building, block by block, destroying whatever remained of Hell's invasion force. Unlike their victims, every demon I killed got a slow, agonizing death. My year in Hell had only solidified my disdainful view of them.

The city itself was so large that I could only clear about a third of it in a day. I did manage to rid the city of the demonic vermin, though it took a few days. I searched the city desperately for any survivors, but I didn't find any. I gathered any ammo I could find and moved on, ready to stop this from happening elsewhere.

I ran through the serene forest. I skidded to a halt when I came to a cliff at the forest's edge. Below the cliff's edge was a terrible sight. The city was floating above Hell itself.
