In this world, only the dead may know peace. Rest in peace, Tanja. What a horrible way to go.
That German Teutonic knight is my favorite character. He is the epitome of chivalry. Such a noble man... He is surrounded by monsters, but he is just one man. It is sad.
I hope he can protect our protagonist somehow. However, it is extremely unlikely. I hope he at least puts up a fight and dies protecting the protagonist, like his chivalric code and own belief dictates.
