Everything was a haze, I couldn't see anything but the roar of anger and pain, so much pain.

My head was aching, my hands were drenched.

Huh, that's odd, why were they wet? Was it stained red or black?

I looked up at the sky, my mind going numb, perhaps it was from all the constant beatings, or perhaps it was simply because I was tired.

Looking to the side I could see something, a creature, a shadow. Lifting my hand I chopped off the thing's head in one fell swoop.

Why were there so much... things?

Where was I?

I looked around but all I could see through the constant drumming in my mind and the blood was green. In some way, that too was stained black.

Ugh, it hurts, it hurts so much. My body was moving on its own. It was like someone else was in control.

What was I doing here? Where is this place, is it a meadow? Magics it hurts, why does it hurt so much? My body was moving again and I felt something rise in me, magic?

What was I doing? I don't know, I don't know anything anymore. I just want the pain to go away. I just want to go to sleep. Please some fae put me out of my misery.
