the village was in our sights but i got a wonderful suggestion from tor we could try to be friendly with them maybe they would attack us but we didn't have to throw the first punch it was a good idea i don't know why i wanted to just slaughter them for no reason but i did it was a strange bloodlust that i didn't notice we walked over to the gate and knocked on it softly but still loud enough to be heard the we waited a scared looking farmer opened the gate then fell to his knees begging for his life i felt bad for them i picked him up and said i wasn't going to kill him that we were here to make an alliance with them they let us inside and the town was squalid and burnt i asked the so called leader of the town what was wrong and he said
"Well the knight's of the deep come by to extract taxes from us but they take more than we have most months we wish we could change it but we can't they don't even give us the medicines to help with the mana sickness that the younger ones here get none of use are strong enough to fight back if you could help us that would be a change for the better but the knights would kill us for being monster worshippers"
"we don't want worship we just need allies for our town you can come with us if you want if you know what the medicines are made of we could gather them for you"
"thank you truely thank you anything would be better then here thank you i'll tell the rest of us to gather what we have and meet up outside the gate and again thank you"
The humans were kind unlike the others and for that we will help them the peope who attacked us are apparently called the knights of the deep and they say they protect people then they do this they burn peoples homes the steal medicine from little kids thier no better than bandits no wonder they were flapping thier gums about how they were going to kill my children when in reality they were so weak a single spear was all it took to kill them their a joke a bad one at that
the humans had what little things they could keep the knights from taking from them and a little bit of food we took the time to escort them back to the town and explain what was happening to my chldren at the town the humans would help build and farm for thier food we tried to eat human food but only i could barely keep it down our bodies rejected it like they didn't want it to be there it was a strange feeling throwing up without any throught or organs it just started to spew from my jaw it was nasty looking too
when that was done we went back into the tunnels and into the swamps to hunt for a while we hunted the ostriches for a while untill a much larger one came chargeing at me i jumped at its neck grabbed on and started to club it's head with the bone club i had bashing it repeatedly over and over but it seemed to do nothing to it several arrows were lodged in its neck and chest it's right wing was barely holding on by a thread and it's left knee was snapped backwards but it still clung to its life like a dying cockroach i drew a small dagger i kept on my belt and drove it into it's skull braking mt hand in the process but i didn't care i didn't even feel the pain i just grabbed my gun with my mangled right hand and pulled the trigger shooting it five times in the chest and once in the head it fell dead
