[Cassandra POV]

Damn my conscience. It seemed like that phrase was echoing further into my mind than ever before. But I had to deal with it. Even if I wanted to just kill myself, all because I felt some pity.

And now I was sold off, not that I couldn't escape. I huffed and turned my head.

I ignored the cries of those people as their blood ruptured and turned into spears that crossed over their bodies. Ignored the death throes of their gurgling throats.

They deserved it, they had forsaken my freedom. All because they wanted to act pitiful.

I scoffed, turning my head to the sky and watching the sun set on the land. Watching the leader of the coalition be impaled by thousands of spears.

He died quickly, barely even able to react. But it was not over, I knew that better than anyone.

Skulls and skeletons rose from the ground. They shed their mortal vessel with the coming of night and were commanded by the lich at the top of them.
