The fringe youth felt incredibly conflicted inside.
He considered obediently surrendering and laying down his weapons.
But the thought of the horrifying ways "Hell" dealt with traitors made him shiver.
This was a society governed by law, where police were good civil servants who enforced the law. For someone like him, going to prison might not be a bad thing.
If going to prison could help him escape the vortex that was the Dark World, the fringe youth thought it might not be such a bad thing.
So, being caught wasn't scary, nor was going to prison.
What was terrifying was the unbearable torment from "Hell."
The inhuman methods used on traitors by "Hell" were enough to make the fringe youth shiver just by thinking about them.
Even in prison...
Traitors couldn't escape the punishment from "Hell."
The family would send people controlled by drugs to try to get into the prison where he was held to enforce their family laws on him.
"If I must die, so be it!"
