Rumor gave kindle to the fire of fear that had already blossomed, and as the embers began to die down, an innocent woman was beheaded. A child stood at the edge of the woods, tears streaming down his face, as he looked upon the merciless people he had thought to be his friends, but now those friends were monsters in his young eyes and he swore an unforgivable oath onto the people and their families before going back into the woods, where he began his new life. A life in which he chose revenge as his ultimate prayer, and murder as sadistic justice.
