Memory of the Apocalypse 2
Alice: When I close my eyes the horrible memories of that day come flooding back. Demon voices, people screaming for mercy, and the burning city.
Alice: The knights' steel armor was useless against the demon's weapons. They all died in vain, as if to show that humans fighting the demons was a lost cause. Thanks to the knights' and soldiers' sacrifice, many were able to escape.
Alice: As I watched the city burn, I could feel that the age of men had ended. Now came an age of fight for survival. Lavish accessories and good quality dresses lost their meaning. What we needed now was a sturdy shoe which would not wear out.
Alice: All sorts of people survived the demons’ pursuit. Knight, soldier… And nobles like me and merchants. And there were also the city's vagrants.
Alice: Some idiots kept their heads held high, as if they still expected their nobility to protect their lives.
Alice: Those idiots didn't survive for long. No, more accurately, they were ostracized.
Alice: I knew, this new world required one to give up money and honor to survive.
Alice: Right, whatever the cost… I had to survive.
