Savior

"Fine…" The masked savior said with resolve, lighting the fading hopes in the hearts of everyone who heard him.

"I'll kill them all!"

'Psych! This is just too good. Pfft!' My mind rang in absolute amusement.

From the start, I knew this would be a silly plan, but it was even funnier than I had pictured.

The reason I suggested that our group run, in the first place, was not to escape the stampede, but rather to offer a false sense of hope to everyone.

As soon as we reached the flatlands, I used to pour out a number of the Hobs I had captured before now. This stopped everyone in their tracks and made them fall into despair, but it wasn't enough. To fully drown them in despondency, I summoned more Hobs behind them, which was very close to where I stood.
