Oh, that was so much fun.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!! Ah, I haven't had that much fun in such a long time. Ahhh, it just a shame I didn't kill any of them. Oh well. I guess you all want to know what happened. Well, I guess I should start with what exactly that unexpected delay was. It was that thing, Larvae. It wanted to come with me so it could go after some chick named Diesis. Honestly, I was tempted to just kill the fucker, but I decided it wasn't worth the time. Not sure how whatever Larvae did turned out, I left after I did a good amount of damage. I'm going to be honest, I probably won't be doing that again. While it was fun, it was a bit too dangerous for my tastes. Now, I had a much easier this time dealing with them than I did last, because this time I was prepared, and I was able to leave whenever I wanted. See, because the Empty City is both a Fear and it's own Domain, I can't leave or enter it whenever I want. The other domains though, I can go in any time I want. That's come from years of dealing with the Fears. That, and I had some of my weapons with me too. Now, I suppose you want to know about my encounter. Well, the first one to find my was Zeke. It went a little something like this:

Zeke: Bastard!
Me: My, such an conversationalist, arn't you?

He then proceed to try shooting me with one of those darts they've been using on the Fears, which did nothing to me.

Me: (while pulling the dart out) ...You do know I'm not a Fear, right?

I proceed to beat him with in an inch of his life. Oh, he got some good hits in, it just doesn't faze you though if you've been alive as long as I have and have experienced all sorts of pain through out that time. In fact, the only reason he's still alive, the Fears got involved.

They didn't even bother talking this time. They just went on the attack. Sadly, for them, I had the upper hand this time. Lets see if I can remember all the damage I did:

Wooden Girl: Took of an arm, and made a nice deep cut across her "Beautiful" face.
Dying Man: Took off a finger. Killing him would be a big no-no right now, at least until I figure out a way to keep him from body jumping.
Plague Doctor: Cut the beak off his mask. That's for giving me a cold you bastard.
Rake: Bent two of his claws.
Blind Man: Broke his kneecap.
The Convocation: Turned a few of their birds into BBQ.
The Cold Boy: Melted part of his face.
The Manufactured Newborn: Broke a few of it's gears.
The Smiling Man: Broke a few of his teeth.

The Unnamed Child: I tried to give her a name. She ran as soon as she realized what I was doing.
The Black Dog: Burned off some of the ungrateful bitch's fur.

The rest just got of with a few un-noticeable cuts and scraps, and The Skinny Bitch didn't even show up. And of course my buddy Archangel wasn't there ether.

After most of them were down, I felt that was enough. I opened up the Path of Black Leaves, and backed into it while saying:

Me: Ah, thanks for the workout. Oh, and you may want to check on some chick named Diesis. Larvae wanted me to distract you all while it went after her. Bye!

And then I left. I ran through the Path for a bit, and came out somewhere in England. I'm working my way back to the states, so that I can resume my previous hunt.

I tell you all about him soon.

Until then, enjoy the tea.
