The Emperor Chaos Part 2

He was larger than the men him, about twice their height. I could swear that he had red eyes but I’ve not slept in days.

Nov 25th EY 0

We’ve lost the city center. Fighting is now hand to hand at times. There are rumors that some of my fellow defenders have resorted to cannibalism of their dead comrades. Starvation set in weeks ago. How did I get myself involved in this mess?

Nov 28th EY 0

I’m in one of the last tall buildings we still hold. Fighting is now hand to hand. I no longer fear death. It would be a relief from all this cold. Most of my toes are now a deep purple, I can barely move my fingers. Rumors are swirling about some sort of coup against The One World Government. That’s all we need.

Damn, it was true. All the old One World Government have been shot and most of its forces have pledged to this Emperor. There’s currently a ceasefire as our local commander decides to do. We’re thinking of surrendering. No way I’m going to pledge allegiance to that thing.

13 December EY 1. We’re surrendering in two hours. Two years imprisonment and then we’ll be free men again. Looking forward to getting away from here. All opposition to The Emperor is gone. He has declared this Year One of a new age. Guess, I’ll have to find some way to live with what has happened.

(There were no further entries in the diary. Please note that any prisoners would have been executed after this battle)
