Background Story (Burning Garrison Aftermath) -Empire Village- -AlexM

Sword was growing bored from constant looking into those scared eyes. The peasant tied to the seat desperately tried to free himself.

Sword turned back and whispered:

Why do you make it even more complicated...why do you have to fight...why do you resist...it's pointless...you're just wasting my time that way

He turned back to the peasant and placed his hands on peasant's head. The peasant began to scream...like he did for like one hour. His face got red and he could barely breath. Sword started to press his hands harder. The peasant screamed louder, and shook in terrible convulsions but then finnaly stopped.

He didnt scream anymore, nor he looked tortured.

Sword looked in his empty eyes and asked
Who am i?
No answer.
Who am i?!
Still no answer.

Sword decided that the man is no use and did cut the rope through as the peasant snapped back.
The peasant didn't intend to run away, he was still but his eyes still looked empty.
...Who am i?
The peasant slowly turned his head in Swords direction looking directly in his eye.
"M..master?"

Sword grinned. He looked over his shoulder. Behind him a group of another people walked in circles -
with empty eyes.

What strong willed village...i think...we are complete now...it's time to march forward

The villagers started walking without hestiation in some direction.

Wait... Sword said to the peasant he affected last. He pressed his hands on his head again and channeled darkness. The eyes of the peasant became black and his hairs started to resemble a dark fire.
Guide them...find more...
"Yes..."
The peasant followed the others.

Another 3-5 miles away a boy was running through the forest crying. He left the village to play in forest but as he came back he saw the villagers tied with some kind of ropes on the street and something dark taking one after another and torturing it.
Now he runned to get help.
