Gregory Victor didn’t remember much of his previous life, but he remembered the days of the plague vividly.

Chapter 5 (part 2) – The Front Line

This entry is part 8 of 11 in the series Rise of the X-Syndicate

Zuxana swung her sword horizontaly, effectively separating a dwarf’s body from its head. She then turned to the right, stomped down on a fallen gnome and jumped to the air, slashing at a human paladin. The blade bounced down the human’s plate armor and found some flesh around her hips. The cut startled the paladin, and as she turned to face Zuxana, a blade came into her side, causing her body to go limp and drop to the ground. Continue reading

Berenice tossed the little gnome legs at him and quickly grabbed the upper body. To his disgust, she began savagely munching down on the fresh gnome flesh with what seemed like an uncontrollable appetite.
