I remember their faces—the way they smiled as they burned our village. My mother screaming. My brother’s hand ripped from mine. I was the only one who crawled out of the fire. Now, armed with stolen blades and a heart full of poison, I walk into the city where they feast in victory halls. I don’t plan to survive tonight. But none of them will either.

Kill Them All
I remember their faces—the way they smiled as they burned our village. My mother screaming. My brother’s hand ripped from mine. I was the only one who crawled out of the fire. Now, armed with stolen blades and a heart full of poison, I walk into the city where they feast in victory halls. I don’t plan to survive tonight. But none of them will either.The knife fits my palm like it was forged there. I press against the stone arch above the banquet hall, breathing slow, watching them laugh below—drunk on wine and victory. Commander Vrax raises his goblet, toasting the fall of Hollow’s End. My home.\n\nI count five torches, five throats, five lives that must end. No escape planned. No mercy intended. I drop the first dagger into the chandelier above. It wobbles. Then I let go.\n\nGlass shatters. Screams rise. And I step into the smoke, blade in hand. They don’t see me yet—but they will. One by one, they’ll know my name before they die.
