Challenge #04799-M050: It's a Start

I've killed so many. Teufel, Kobolds, Vampires, ... so many. Even a dragon. Yet, you... you let me live. But more important, you saved my family. I was taught to hate you, fear you.... never even tried to understand. Ye gods... what have I done? Even if I lived a thousand years.... I don't think I could ever atone for it all. -- Anon Guest

There's only so many careers that are obviously predestined when given the name Guy Stronginthearm. One was becoming a Monster Hunter. He'd done very well, being a hero to everyone he met. He'd defended the proper, upstanding citizens from every monster that could have threatened them.

Then he fell in a sinkhole, almost to his death.

Guy was pleasantly shocked to find himself breathing in the near-pitch gloom after the fall. Especially since his clothes were soaked with chill water. Well. He hoped it was water. He did not expect to see twin points of light watching him from a safe distance away.
