John’s Struggle in the Second Circle of Hell
<< Chapter 1: Limbo | Chapter 3: Gluttony >>
Chapter 2: Lust

His breath fogged in the cold, and he shivered, pulling his coat tighter around himself. He had left Marie behind, her words a bittersweet echo in his mind. He had to keep moving, keep fighting, for both of them.

John swallowed hard, his heart pounding. "I don't need a guide. I just want to get out."
