"I'm not a lumberjack. This is personal."
In his mind, Rizzrack could still hear the screams. He worked furiously, turning wrenches, twisting screws, constructing, carving, and forging. Sleep eluded him; all he did was build. Months had passed since he'd locked himself away in his uncle's workshop, and his deliverance was almost complete. As his eyes closed, he saw a blanket of flowers floating on the calm waves of Augury Bay before exploding into a cloud of pollen that silenced lives as it seized the lungs. With a choking start, he awoke. The rhythmic sound of a whetstone filled the shop for hours as he sharpened a set of massive blades, his mind racing with images of strangling vines garroting neighbors and enwrapping homes. Augury Bay's flooding had been nothing compared to the violent horrors that had taken root beyond the city walls.
But, he reasoned, the saw-suit would make him strong and safe, allowing himself this glimmer of hope before the full force of his fear slammed into his fading mind. Branches, bark, and blood Rizzrack fled the city as trees that walked, fought, and killed. The gates had been shattered, and trees had swarmed into the city. Trees had crushed, thrashed, and stomped the last defense Augury Bay had, and stalked the few fleeing refugees. Rizzrack unspooled the thick chain from the suit's arm in hushed silence, his hands trembling as he inspected each link and ran a trembling finger along the claw attached at its end. The saw-suit was all set.
He sparked the bladed machine with his trembling hand. Terror drove him, terror of what lay ahead and of what he would have to face in order to have any hope of calming his mind. He knew he had to face this fear as the saw-suit shuddered to life, and he knew he wouldn't like it one bit.
