《The Forgotten legend of the north》Chapter 2. Awakening.

As the group walks carefree the sun started to set, dyeing all the forest in a warm red light.
Shortly the group found a great old tree to make a camp out if it, Louie started to cut the vegetables and meat for dinner, Gabriel started to build the camping tent and Rah went to search some firewood.
As the atmosphere comes familiar, Gabriel and Louie start an a Idly chat.
"So…have you seen a Goblin before?"Gabriel asked.
"No that I remember, but I have heard stories from some adventurers...disgusting stories though" replied Louie
"Well at least we are not going to felt remorse when we slaughter those filthy monsters"
"Amen"
Suddenly an ears piercing shriek make Gabriel and Louie stand on point, it was Rah who shouted.
Both of them started running where the scream came from, after searching for some seconds they found a kneeled down Rah praying with fear in her eyes, as for her reaction, it was small compared to the scene they witness, hundreds and hundreds of dead soldiers from different races scattered as far as the eye can see, different from adventures mercenaries are hired by counts, nobles or whoever had the money, generally speaking they are hired to kill another person while adventurers were hired to kill monsters, so most of the adventurers are not used to see dead humanoids bodies.
The small group horrified by the scene stayed in silence. No sound was made by them nor the monsters, only the breeze joyfully run around.
After some minutes that felt like an eternity, Gabriel straight up and claimed.
"Is not pretty to look at, a...and even thought It's going to left a bad taste" after some silence Gabriel continued
"They are dead but we can’t bury them all, we don’t have the time or the means to, so let’s get back to the camp and tomorrow we let the guild know"

Rah and Louie silently nodded.
The group silently and slowly got back to the great old tree, a tree so wide that some believers think it is blessed by the god of the forests, as they finished the camp and eaten dinner no creak was ever heard from their mouth until a whisper was said.
"I...I can’t leave them like that"
said Rah
Gabriel with no emotions in his voice proclaimed
"There is no use, they are dead"
"Bu...but....I’m a priestess at least let me pray for them" Rah cried out looking Gabriel with puppy eyes.
"Alright, is your job as a Priest after all but come back before night" said Gabriel with a sight and a faint smile.
Nodding, Rah started walking in the direction of the dead bodies but in the last second she regrets it and walked around the old great tree without Gabriel nor Louie noticing.
"Oh old great tree please give me strength to pray for the souls of the damned who have fallen in your grounds, ah eh?"
Her words got caught from escaping her mouth as a hopeless pair of red yellowish eyes stared at her, without saying a word a Berserk of a man still stapled to the tree thanks to the arrows and the spear, slowly ask
"Where am I?"

Making a difference
Harry Potter FanFiction: Hannah Longbottom liked to watch the people who entered the Wizarding World via the small, walled courtyard behind the Leaky Cauldron for a reason: During her not so long life, she had learned about three different boys who had entered the Wizarding World alone, leaving behind a life so horrible she could barely imagine. One of them, who became a friend of hers, had gone through great hardships to become a hero, one of the greatest wizards the Wizarding World had ever seen. One of them, who had been her teacher, had become cold and bitter, and no one had ever recognized what amazing talents he could have offered, until it had been too late. One of them, the monster she had helped to fight during the Battle of Hogwarts, had become the most dreaded, most dangerous, and most deadly man Great Britain had ever seen, and yet it could have all been different, if someone had just tried to make that difference early enough in that life, if he had not boarded the train to Hogwarts all alone. Already posted at Devianart and AO3, I've included a link to RoyalRoad on my profiles there.
