Valerian looked around him in a daze, he had never seen such a gory sight. As far as the eye could see, there were mutilated corpses and puddles of blood. He shivered, and the scene made his guts wrench as he turned his head and puked. The air was filled with a stench that he could not tolerate.
Ignis saw his condition and took him back to the entourage. He said to the captain on the side, "Find some fire mages and have them clean this place up. It will cause the plague to develop if left alone."
The captain bowed his head as Ignis supported Valerian back to the city and took him to the bunker. The young man was looking somehow better than he was in the clearing, but his face was still pale. Ignis sat on a chair on the side and asked, "Is this the reason you asked me to pull out the mage last night?"
