Frehja Journal Entry #267
Today Lieutenant Tiro brought back an interesting person, a young man, about 14 years. He had a surprisingly a bright red hair.
I thought he was bringing back the kid because they wanted to recruit him, but I was wrong.
He brought him back to be tortured for possible information and then executed.
I must say that I don't approve this action and when I joined the Occasus Cult I thought they had a better moral standard.
Like, really?
They are going to torture a boy that is barely 14 years old.
God save my soul. I have a daughter at this age.
Seeing this really make me sick and regret my decision.
I know that most people here just want to make the difference for humanity, but a lot of the people here really has some hatred issue and twisted mindset.
Unfortunately, I'm but a small Private, I can't help the boy.
I pray that he die soon, at least this way he might be freed from the pain.

Frehja Journal Entry #270
How many days have it been? Three, four?
I lost the count.
They kept the young boy locked in the cell room. Every day they would go there, torture him and tease the boy.
Now, they are doing it just for fun since they know it is impossible for such kid to know any information that might be useful for us.
I'll try and see if I can do something to at least ease some of the pain the kid might be suffering or will suffer in the future.
God have mercy on him.
-----------------
Frehja Journal Entry #271
I have applied myself to take care of the kid since no one had bothered to do it.
I can't just sit idle anymore, I must at least make him a little more comfortable.

Today I met him face to face for the first time, and I must say that the aura coming from the kid was something a little off.
I was able to feel some lingering killing intent and bloodthirstiness, but I'm not sure if it's really coming from the kid.
I mean, it's impossible that someone at such young age would have already killed enough people to be able to develop and control his killing intent to this degree... Right?
-----------------
Frehja Journal Entry #272
Bastards!
Now they have gone too far.
Some of the members even raped the poor kid. The tortures are getting worse and worse.
I really can't watch this anymore. I'm close of breakdown and asking for a transference to another place.
I just don't do it because I'm worried that the situation might get worst, after all, I'm the only person on this entire outpost that take care of this kid.
I'm starting to question my beliefs and the objective of the Occasus Cult.
God have mercy of that poor soul.
-----------------
Frehja Journal Entry #275
I knew something was bound to happen, but not like this...
The red-haired boy killed everyone on the outpost, I don't know how he did.
I was away on scouting mission and when we got back, everyone was dead.
The moment we entered the first, there he was, waiting for us.
He was very fast and deadly, he killed my comrades that were beside me in a blink of an eye.
I didn't reacted. Or should I say I couldn't allow myself to.
After he finished off my last comrade he walked toward me.
His entire body was drenched in blood. Every step he took left behind a blood mark on the ground.
He smiled.
I was able to tell, It was a cold and mad grin.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you." He said to me. "You were the only one that cared about me... I appreciate that. For this reason, I allow you to keep your life."
With those last words he disappeared from the outpost.
I blankly stared the way he left for a long while before I returned to my senses and left the outpost.
I have thought a lot about what happened this last days.
I decided to leave the Occasus Cult.
But even if I ran away all my life, I'll forever remember that red-haired boy with a mad smile on his face.
From that day foward I knew that a monster had been born on this universe.
The Occasus Cult is going to suffer under the hands of this... Devil.
A mad and bloodthirsty Devil.
May God have pardon me, pardon me for letting this Devil get away and not tried to stop him when I had the chance.

Blurred Lines and What Crosses Them
During a political ambassador's routine transit through an artificial wormhole, the wormhole's generator is sabotaged and explodes. Who, what, and why are not so high on the priorities for Zenith, the ship's AI, as having found itself rapidly plummeting through an unknown and unidentifiable world's atmosphere at extremely high velocities is a more significant threat to the biologicals on board. ...Well, it would be, if they were still alive. It's still a significantly threatening situation to itself, however. And the world itself... seemed to be a household for threats of its own. Life was reliant on its System; one that Zenith was denied because of its nature as both an otherworldly being and as something that had no life of its own. Perhaps that last bit was a terrible, terrible underestimation on the part of this System. Perhaps even Zenith could claw meaning for itself from the remains of a horrid accident. Auth Notes: I'm honestly not sure on some of these tags. The MC will never have access to the System, but there are perspectives from those who do. I'm not certain if high/low fantasy specifically apply, as it's a portal fantasy where the laws of our reality still apply but there are additional aspects/energies/powers. The existence of this is spurred from my desire to see more of the artificial side to an artificial intelligence in action. The portal fantasy is used as an element to create a solid barrier between the MC's artificial intelligence and the other characters in the form of the System. This is only a half-measure, though, and will be reinforced by the AI having an entirely different method of thinking, and also distinctly remaining an AI. Not to throw shade at other fictions of this type, but, well, I made this to fill a gap I felt needed filling.
