Ken decides to take the law into his own hands. He waits six brain festering years for the only man ever punished for the children's deaths to be released from prison Ken has his revenge. Finding that he has a hidden liking for violence Ken decides that this is his way forward. By starting the Guild, he brings down a reign of terror on a small city.
