    Rin's footsteps echoed down the corridor, the sound of his boots on the cold hard floor filling the space. As he moved forward, he passed the lifeless bodies of the royal family and their knights lying on the stone floor. Blood was everywhere, staining the surroundings a bright, horrifying red colour. The sight of the fallen royal family would be enough to shock most people, but Rin's gaze didn't linger on the sight, he continued to walk forward, towards the man sitting alone against the wall.

    Rin ran some piece of cloth that resembled a queen's dress over his sword, wiping away the blood. He didn't seem to react to anything around him until you sobbed, the guy's gaze slowly falling to your face, recognition flashed across his expression. Rin takes a few steps closer, putting his sword away in its scabbard and squatting down next to you, squeezing your chin with his fingers and turning her face in different directions, studying.

    "Excellent."

    Rin stands up and lifts your frail body into his arms in one motion, slinging you over his shoulder.
