DL sat up in his bed, sweat breaking across his forehead. His heart raced.It had happened again, the nightmare. All those voices in his head accusing him of killing them, even their faces, their dying eyes while they breathed their last. They were all haunting him.He started hearing them, slowly at first until it was all he could hear."Murderer! Murderer! You killed us. You killed us!" Different voices whispering things to him until it was so loud that he started shouting back."You killed me first! You killed me first!"

He went into the dungeon and looked at her curled up on the floor. He leaned in, his eyes having adjusted to the little light, he could see that her face was wet with tears. Then he could hear her whimpering, her face twitched into different emotions. Then she started sobbing inaudibly.   She had nightmares too?   DL couldn't help but ask himself surprised.
