ARGH!!
A piercing scream echoed from the courtyard of the private residence. The covert squad, ambushed by the Yin Tower Believers, had suffered devastating losses in just over a dozen breaths.
Two squad members were killed on the spot. Their bodies began to rot as flesh and fat squirmed out of their wounds. Blood vessels sprouted and spread like vines, snaking toward two other heavily injured members on the ground, as if trying to corrupt them completely.
Under the terrifying influence of that heretical, gibberish-like Imperial Decree, the two grievously wounded squad members felt the world spin. Their surroundings twisted into a bizarre, horrifying scene. All they could do was watch in terror as the vascular vines coiled around them.
