Sometimes, a horde just gets out of control. It can happen to anyone, who am I to judge? Call in the professional barber service, give a little snip here, a little snip there, and voila! Your rampaging army of feral demons is suddenly that much more manageable.

We’ve cycled through assaults on the horde four times now, and it’s honestly a bit of a laugh. There’s no coordination amongst them, and they aren’t quick enough to catch us when we try to run, especially not when I drop a gravity bomb on the frontrunners.

Now, there’s no need to fear. I know that this isn’t the majority of the demon army, or even a significant percentage. If it were, there would be tier eight demons trying to stomp on my head.

Where are the rest of them? No idea! But while this group is out here going wild, we may as well do our bit to reduce their numbers.
