Doomsday Diary

There I sat in the dirt-covered in bruises from our last skirmish with a rebel faction and among the foes was an infamous serial killer who went by "The Crimson Reaper" fittingly as he seemed to be a monster walking what remained of the earth today though he was more insane than he was ominous. His actions reflected that as well which kept us shaking in our boots. His supporters protected him knowing it would only make them and their militia leader more known and feared. Our captain Darius was unimpressed and moved swiftly through town to town sweeping resisting forces and outlaws to try to find him after he found his wife and child maimed nearly to death as if he were playing with them just for them to die in his arms after the Reaper escaped. He hardly spoke to us after that day which was really no shock to anyone after seeing what happened to his family. His story was one that I could resonate with after losing all my loved ones in the battles over the past 10 years since reality was intact.
