A Martyr At The Abandoned City
Marie, child of blasphemy
“Butchered at The Abandoned City in defense of her crew”
Slain by ROR
Marie had a rocket launcher & the acrobatic know-how from a life in the crow's nest. None of this makes you invulnerable to bullets. Credit for the killing: Ada, our butcher.
