He could hear the shouts and explosions everywhere. His blade was a bloody crimson. The stench of sulfur and death were all around him, but he could not stop now. He was protecting his home, his friends, his family. He gripped the leather of his pommel. Another slash. Another strike. An explosion knocks him back, as he notices the fires burning all around him. The crators in the ground marking the land with errors. He could see the dark figure stepping towards him where he lay.

"Seele! get up, we need your help!" His childhood friend leaned over to help him up. Dylan always had a talent with the bow. he had short black hair and a clever and dignified look to him. As Seele regained his footing he could see that the sun was beggining to rise. "Good," he thought. The monsters would be weakened in sunlight. He ran with the hope that the village would survive this battle.

An arrow grazed Seele's cheek, but just as the arrow was released, Dylan had ended it. With another slash he was back into the blood bath. it was going easier than before. "Were winning" he thought. His new found hope gave him strength, with which he charged the spiders and skeletons, but no zombies. They had all been defeated early into the fight as they were sent in first.1,2,3,4,5,6,7... the count of how many were left was innumerable. His sword crashed through a skeleton, ending its lifeless existence. And then onto the legs of a great spider. Nearly all were gone now, but then he heard a noise. "thump! thump! thump!"

Then he saw it, a great beast, at least 15 feet tall. "A giant!" He wouldn't let it reach the village. He ran as fast as he could, Slicing through monsters near him as though he was carving milky clouds, still focusing on the giant. As he reached the giant it dropped its giant club onto the ground, rumbling with cause enough to make the earth tremble. Seele took this chance and ran to the ankles of the giant and slashed, but to his disappointment it did nothing to the steel skin of the great beast. The giant took aim of Seele's position, and stomped its foot nearly crushing him. Seele watched in horror as the giant slammed his club into the ground next to him. He took this opportunity and ran onto the club and jumping onto the giants head "YOU WILL NEVER TAKE OUR VILLAGE" with those final words he plunged his sword deep into the beasts forehead, without a word the giant fell... The wrong way! He had realized too late. He jumped, but he only managed to save himself from being crushed. He could feel the darkness closing in around him, taking him in like a mothers embrace.

"Seele, wake up! were safe!" He knew this voice, who was it... Then it hit him... literally. lilith leaped onto him, hugging him, "I'm so glad your okay!" It hurt him but he could deal with the writhing pain.

"Are the others ok?" he asked, curious as to the condition of the village.

"Yes. Well mostly... We lost four brave fighters."

Better than I expected Seele thought to himself. "The village?" he wanted to see it. She lead him through the door of the building. The sight was horrible. The buildings had almost all fallen down, only a few remained. "They're sending groups into the mines of the creepers and the jungle." lilith said "i need to help, im going."
