Summary
Karla chases some zombies and is annoyed that they run from her, and even more that they are able to run. Alvin asks her what she has in her hands and she reveals its "Fire of Salvation", a holy hellfire that burns the undead, incinerating both their bodies and soul, which makes Alvin comment that none of that sounds as salvation or holiness. A girl approaches them since she heard the commotion and wonders if she can help them with something. Realizing she is the necromancer, the girl apologizes and introduces herself with a charming smile as Maria Deathflame, a necromancer. Alvin introduces himself and Karla and Maria finds their names lovely. Karla states she finds Alvin a great name too, but Alvin doesn't deserve it. Maria wonders what are they doing in the graveyard. Before Karla is able to say there are there to kill her, Alvin stops her. They argue if they should kill her or not as the zombies doesn't seem enslaved, but feel like they respect her. Seeing that Karla is a healer, an enemy to the dead, the zombies think that Alvin and Karla are there to hurt Maria. The zombies then reveal they are fans of Maria and decide to protect her with their lives until she manages to escape. Karla asks Alvin to protect her too and he agrees to be the frontline, but as Karla states he doesn't have a chance, having enough of her, he joins the zombies and turns against her.
