The courtyard finally came into view as I staggered out of the what remained of the fortress. Blood dripped down my face and I spat another mouthful out once I was clear of the rubble. Wiping my mouth on my arm, I glanced around at the amount of destruction Zeraxin managed to bring in so little time.

Not a single building was left untouched. Demon bodies covered the ground. So did several of the enemy, but not enough to stop their attack. Not nearly enough.

Olem and the rest of Hell were lost.

I stumbled forward until my anger gave my legs the strength to hold me upright. My anger turned into a burning hot rage that sprouted two, fiery blades at my hands. I bellowed, drawing the attention of the nearest enemies. Zombies and hellhounds. They’d been digging through a pile of bodies nearby, bodies of demons I knew and cared for when they were alive. Now they were nothing but corpses. The enemy came for me, but they didn’t last long.

Their bodies smoldered in pieces as I stepped over them and onto the next victim. Anything that came my way, I cut it down, showing no mercy. These bastards didn’t deserve mercy. Their deaths were too fast for my liking, but Lela was down here somewhere. Her presence was a beacon that pulled me closer. I had to get to her and ensure she didn’t end up like the others I cared for.

I lunged forward with both blades. They tore through the muscle at the arm wielding the hammer. The offending limb, along with the weapon, crashed to the ground. It sank to its knees, clutching at the nub. I considered leaving it there to bleed out, but its pathetic keening grated on my nerves.

Combining the swords into one massive two-handed weapon, I cleaved its monstrous head from its shoulders. The horrible noise cut off abruptly. It crashed to the ground, its head rolling away awkwardly.

I continued my bloody charge onward. I left a trail of dismembered and burnt bodies in my wake, trudging through a courtyard stained with the blood of demons. Those stones would never be clean again if we ever made it back to Hell. Another pack of zombies came at me, and I sliced through them, sending a multitude of heads tumbling to the ground.
