Background:
Maya was born to a poor and broken home in an even poorer farming village. At a young age she was sold from her parents to a traveling bandit group which was then slaughtered by a squadron of soldiers that were protecting a town, after watching the soldiers kill the bandits Maya was taken in by the captain of the squad, she never found out if it was out of pity or not.
She was raised by that captain, Marcus, and became family with the whole squadron. Everyone was like brothers to her and every one of them would do anything for her; she learned how to use a sword from them as she grew up and when she was 14 she was able to compete with any of them. She joined that group of soldiers when she was old enough, laughing with her sword brothers and captain father as one big family as they went throughout the countryside to different towns and villages to defend them against attacks, Everything was perfect.
They were stationed at a town that bordered a mountain range, there were reports of troll activity in those farmlands, it didn't seem to be anything troubling; they had killed trolls before. After a month of being stationed at that town something happened that they were not ready for, the night of her 20th birthday her world fell apart.
As they celebrated her birthday the guard was relaxed and not expecting anything to happen, they were wrong. As the night went on no one no one noticed the horde of undead descending upon the village, in moment the night was filled with laughter and merriment, the next, it was filled with screams of terror and sounds of battle. As great as the soldiers were they were fighting at an extreme disadvantage, the undead creatures washed upon them, those soldiers fought for every inch of ground but in the end it was not enough, they were slaughtered one by one until there was only a few left, 3 of her sword brothers, Her captain father, and Maya herself facing off against an army of the dead in a tight enclosed alleyway, they had nowhere to go and fought like crazed animals.
