Chris's muscles tense, not out of fright or anything to do with fear or terror—the reason he's this way is out of rage. Below him are prisoners. About thirty of them, tied by the necks and hands with ropes. More rope hobbled their feet—there was just enough play so they could shuffle but not run. By his observation, running was the last thing on their minds—the last thing they could do.

Their emaciated, fragile bodies—just skin and bones dressed in torn rags—swayed rhythmically, ready to break and bend in the slightest wind. Cuts oozed rivers of blood, bruises covered most of their visible skin, and several had obvious bone breaks. One held her left arm in an attempt to keep it from moving, but every time someone barely bumped her, or the ropes caused her to take a step, she'd cry out in pain. The break was bad. When the arm moved, it looked like only skin and muscle kept it from falling off. Either the bones inside her arm were snapped in two—or crushed—either way, Chris could feel her pain.

Others were just like her, some even worse off. Most were only a step or two away from becoming Tainted.

There wasn't a single man among them, they were all women and children.

Chris's blood boiled.
