soma grits his teeth as you carry him the two miles to theshelter.

 

you come to an empty field, and without a word, soma clicks his pda and the ground rumbles and plits, revealing steps down int othe dark

[Emporer469]

"steps into maw of hell itself how fitting considering the world we live" as Alexander soon began descending down the stairs into the darkness with Soma

[Thugren]

the darkness closes in biehind you and you see a small base. It has six rooms and as the door slides closed, you realize youre already in the medical bay.

 

"Set him down and start stripping his armor.."

 

The pentitnet says, removing his helm and speaking.

 

"i will see if i can help keep the infection at bay."

[Emporer469]

Alexander followed without a word and set Soma down onto the bed and helped Pentitnet strip Soma of his Armor so that they can see the wound clearly

[Thugren]

The penitent silenlty begins tio work as carly leans agasint the wall.

 

"Hes going to need some batherwine fruit."

 

The penitent winces.

 

"Yes.....Damnit."

 

He opens the wound and begins cutting away rotting flesh to keep the rot from spreading.

 

"Akexander...Youre going to need to go back out."

[Emporer469]

Alexander nodded as he then started checking his equipment 

 

"what do you need me to find Penitent" as he looked at Soma's wound knowing what was going to be asked of him

[Thugren]

Marcellan grabs an iv and jabs his forearm, pumping fresh blood into soma.

 

"Nearby is a town taken by ghouls....There is a specific ghoul there called a cluster that tends to a small garden...Take all the herbs and bring them here."

 

Carly winces seeing soma grit his teeth.

 

"Things are much worse here than ithought..."

[Emporer469]

"Then keep him alive until I return with herbs penitent" as Alexander began moving towards the exit preparing his mind for the path he was about to crave to save Soma from his own folly

[Thugren]

you leave and you see the sun is going down. The penitents map pops up and you can see that the settlement is about 4 hours to the left, in a small coastal town that has an incredibly high ghoul population

[Emporer469]

Alexander moves in the direction quickly knowing that time is of the essence as Soma's life hangs in the balance

[Thugren]

you walk for hours in mostly silence as you come to the town . The moon rises as you arrive, and you can see hundreds of ghouls stumbling about, but that isnt what catches your eyes. Alone, standing near the garden at the center of the town is an armored figure, a templar bearing a massive blackstone sword like your own.

[Emporer469]

Alexander began to wonder why would one of his order be this far out but put it to the back of his mind and began moving towards the garden in silence as to not attract the ghouls and waste more time in his mission for Soma's life

[Thugren]

Alexander.."

 

He says, turnign around, and showing the twisted visage of somone that makes your heart drop.

 

Behind the mangled helmet, and the damaged face, you can tell yo uare looking into the eyes of the former strike commander Bryson....A large man, a golem of awarrior that had supposedly fallen not too long ago when the order was assisting the archangels push back the threat of the ghou llord thrazzda.

 

"Long time no see friend.."

 

he says,his voice moist and phlegmy, like he was talkign around a mouthful of mucous

[Emporer469]

"Bryson....we thought you were lost" as Alexander gazed upon his fallen brother and gazed at him sorrowfully

 

"but it seems that in the plague has taken you...but I must ask how are you still sane" as Alexander waited for the ancient warrior's answer

[Thugren]

Indomitable will brother...Indomitable will."

 

He turns and looks at all the ghouls surrounding them and waves them off with a sigh.

 

"Once you are bitten its a test of will to not fall...it is like a gnawing sickness that plauges your every thought."

 

HE reaches onto his back and draws a large blade, larger than any blade should be, a hunk of metal that was more of a cudgel, but it served its purpose.

 

"Now that youve found me...YOu must die...A pity."

[Emporer469]

"I have a duty to care for a wounded brother Bryson I will cut you down if you are now choosing to interfere with my mission" as Alexander grip the handle of his blade with both hands and prepared for a battle that might cause his very life to be on the line

[Thugren]

he takes a stance that mimics your own, his blae dripping with pus and gunk from its time being weileded by a ghoul .

 

"You can walk away from this alexander.."

he says, mving around you in a slow circle.

 

"You can walk away right now....ANd nothing will come for you."

[Emporer469]

Alexander blocking out the fallen warriors words and charge straight at him while swinging his sword into an ark that would cut Bryson into two

[Thugren]

bryson lifts his blade easily, stopping the blade with a loud clang.

 

"Well now boy.....The student is ready to kill me....CHeeky."

 

he rears back and delivers a brutal headbutt, jarring you lightly behind your helm and pushing you back.

 

"COme than...Let us do this."

[Emporer469]

Alexander once again charges the fallen warrior and swings his blade out from the side intending to try to cut Bryson in half with one swipe to try and finish this battle quickly since time is of the essence
