His boots dug into the dirt as he headed for Hamlet. He had never felt so burdened before. The armor he donned felt as if stones were piled on his back. He could feel it. The foul seeds of doubt planted in his mind were now taking root. What a vile feeling it was, one that made him want to claw his skin and flesh off, leaving nothing but bone in hopes of salvation.

He shook his head to clear himself of such thought. There was no need to resort to such a tactic. Even if it was hyperbolic, something in the back of his mind suggested otherwise... A voice that he would have to smother before it caused more harm to him.

As they finally made their way into the hamlet, the party had dispersed for the night. Some went to rest, while others found their temporary outlets— whether it be finding solace in the abbey or indulgence at the tavern.

Yet he felt no desire to visit the church and pray. A feeling of shame welled up inside of him, churning in his gut as he turned his back away from it. He knew he was better than this. The act alone confirmed otherwise. He felt pathetic.

The tavern wasn't a better choice. There was no use in drowning his sorrows with alcohol, and his funds were too tight to gamble with. But, there was the brothel. A place he had never dared to glance at. Reynauld was never a man who indulged in the pleasure of the flesh. He swore against it.

Well, once... Maybe twice, he had partaken in such an act. But it was so long ago, with— he could no longer bear the thought.

His resolve was being tested. He desired to quell his aching muscles. To find comfort in another in hopes that they could shoulder his burden for one night. But that would go against everything he has known... It was then, his resiliance wavered.
