My breaths faltered, choking on each inhale as I fought to breathe past the panic. A fierce tremor tore through me, goosebumps breaking out upon my flesh as guilt consumed every fragment of my soul. I’m haunted by the dead bodies, the scene playing on a loop so vividly that I can recall the scent of death and destruction.
The explosion that caused death of millions, the consequences resulting in the backfire of the weapons that killed hundreds.
A sharp pain pierced my mind, like a knife digging into flesh. Of the sixty members that participated in this ambush, only twenty returned. They rejoiced upon our return, declaring the mission a success and affirming the crumbling of Golden Kingdom.
Their joyous shouts and screams fell on deaf ears, everything sounded like I was underwater, drowning in a sea of dead bodies with the putrid scent of blood filling my nostrils. Bjorn told us not to mourn their deaths, emphasizing that their sacrifices weren’t in vain.
