The Hunter General Part 1: In dreams
I dream of monsters.
No bogeymen or pixies could compare to the visions I have witnessed. I have seen the world drenched in the blood of the innocent; the atolls falling forever into the Sky Below; the dance of Incarnates as they burn all reality to nothing in their dementia. What I, a mere woman, have seen would drive strong men to suicide.
But I endure. I must always endure. I am not the only Hunter touched by mysticism, and I am not alone. I must believe that what I have seen is only a possible future, and it will not come to pass as long as I have the will to defy it. That is the heart and soul of the Guild, is it not? The will of every good person to do right, against the evil that lurks inevitably in their darkest desires.
Even I am not immune. It is a small comfort that no Hunter will ever suffer the horror of Incarnation. The price we pay is far too high.
