"I no longer remember my name. That detail has been lost on me ever since I came in contact with the Blight."
"That…"The woman glanced around, looking at the horde of monsters outside the tent, not the tent's inner walls.
"...is the Blight."
Zach nodded. He had already figured as much, but it was nice to get confirmation. The Blight was what reanimated the monsters and united them under the woman's command. He wasn't sure what the Blight was, where it came from, or how it worked, but those were minor details.
"Before the Blight, long before it, I was an ordinary warrior. I was a proud warrior of the Ka. I fought for my people's safety and wealth. Strangely enough, while I do not remember my own name, I remember the names of my family. My parents. My sisters. My child. Perhaps because they died before the Blight. How fortunate.
