A hello and a good morning to you, dear reader...
Yes...
Do tell...
How does the very morning find itself?
Sunny?
Why...
Of the very same do I suppose you shall be glad...
For...
Indeed...
Has the cold found itself to a great trouble for you...
Yes...
And of it...
Do I fully understand, dear reader...
Terrible weather can be quite bothersome to humans...
Yes...
As for myself...
Why...
Are the very...
Well...
Twould be best to say...
That it finds itself to be yet another glorious day...
Yes...
Why...
Twould seem that for the both of us...
That the sun does find itself shining...
Yes...
Do enjoy the day, I would say...
For...
When the sun shines...
Dare I say...
Tis as though even the very sky smiles upon the children of the living...
Yes...
Hmmm?
Oh no, no, no...
Tis as I said before...
I am not dead...
Yes...
Well...
I suppose I may well continue with our tale...
For...
Indeed...
Even so as the very sun shines on both our faces...
Why...
Even so as the sun smiles upon the both of us...
Almost as though it beckons us to stand upon the world...
And create...
Imagine...
Grow...
And fight...
Even so...
Does the very culmination of things of this tale grow nearer...
Yes...
However...
Dear reader...
Do fail to miss the opportunity...
To enjoy the sun...
For...
Tis as I would say....
The sun bears the very joy of the world upon its light...
Why...
Tis the very reason for which man finds himself saddened once it rains...
And joyous when the sun rises...
Tis of that very reason, I would say...
Yes...
Do find yourself making the most of the blazing sun...
Indeed...
And thereof...
Must I simply say...
That the very culmination of things grows ever nearer...
Why...
Twould be a failure for me to not say...
That it was at this point...
Even so as the very battle between Sir Geldman Morrow...
His brothers...
And the brothers Hessenger...
Was soon to close...
Indeed...
Twas then and only then...
That a very special thing was to occur...
Yes...
And of that...
I suppose I may well say a few things beforehand...
The very words may well...
How you say...
Better the picture of what was to occur...
Yes...
Now then...
Do remember the state upon which we left off...
Yes...
When and wherefore...
Sir Geldman Morrow...
Found himself upon the earthen floor of Galehornne...
This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.
And thereof...
Was he stabbed and wounded...
For...
The very smokescreen that once upon a time covered his foes...
Was the very thing...
That shielded his eyes...
From the very throwing of blades...
And thereof...
Indeed...
Were there 10 blades...
Yes...
All thrown at his person...
All aimed with precision...
All to harm a different part of his body...
Why...
I suppose one may say...
Twas the very wisdom and experience of the man by the name of Vance Hessenger...
To make a throwing of his many blades...
In positions so precise...
That...
Even so...
Should Sir Geldman Morrow find himself of the mind...
Why...
He wouldn't have the time...
To dodge...
And thereof...
Dare I say...
Should a man of a daring pursuit be wary...
For...
Geldman: Gaaaah!!!
Did Sir Geldman Morrow...
Hurl his blades at his opponents...
And thereof...
Did he lack a means...
To parry...
And so...
Did he attempt to dodge...
And of it...
Did his very body lower itself and lurch to the side...
However...
Indeed...
Were the thrown knives of Vance Hessenger...
Full ready for this eventuality...
Why...
The very blades were thrown in an array...
Well prepared should he duck left or lurch right...
And of it...
Did three knives fully miss him...
Two merely scrape at his face...
One upon his cheek...
And another beside his left eye...
As for the other five...
Indeed...
To his right...
To his shoulder...
To his left thigh...
To his very waist...
And finally...
To his left foot...
Five blades hurled at him...
Each with precision and incredible force...
Each well set with enough force to puncture his skin fully...
And make him bleed thereof...
And as for Sir Geldman Morrow...
Why...
Did his body have little else...
Than to merely...
Fall...
For...
Indeed...
Tis a thing to be fully harmed upon your chest...
Or, even so...
Upon your foot...
However...
Upon your very body...
Five strikes...
Even so...
More than one at once...
Indeed...
Twould be hard for many a man...
To maintain the focus...
To merely...
Stay upon his feet...
Yes...
For...
Twas not merely the pain of the blades that did the very pirate-Knight in....
Well, I suppose the phrase does not suit him...
Seeing as he is now fully a Knight...
However...
Indeed...
It was the very force of the blades...
Sending his mind into sheer shock...
That soon found itself upon his very bones...
The victor...
Yes...
Tis battle...
And thereof...
Indeed...
Does the mind matter...
Yes...
Indeed...
Even so...
Following the very events...
Did the brothers Hessenger climb upon the very roof right after...
For...
Twas an advantage to the pair...
To make quick the end of this soldier...
And so...
Vance: (thinking: Tis of Knights... Of all Knights... His brothers shall come to him) Finish him, brother...
His very younger...
Even at these very words...
Why...
His eyes narrowed...
As though a soldier with a blade...
Nay...
A soldier's eyes...
As they hone themselves upon their target...
Even so...
As their very idea lies...
As it narrows...
For...
Indeed...
The eyes sharpen themselves...
To a point...
So the very slash...
Shall do the very best of its ability...
For...
The man by the name of Jon Hessenger...
Why...
Twas a request of his older brother...
I suppose by now...
The very bond between the two...
Shall fail to be a mystery before you, dear reader...
Hmmm?
Why...
Of course...
Indeed...
Tis a gorgeous thing, I may say...
Yes...
Even of...
Did the very Knights soon charge to the very saving of their brother...
Yes...
Did the very three charge...
However...
Even so, after the very words of the man by the name of Vance Hessenger...
Did Vance turn his very head towards his foe...
Even as his younger...
Did not answer...
For...
Indeed...
Was his very blade poised...
Aimed at the very heart of the Morrow clan member...
To end his very life...
Yes...
Twas close to his very end...
As for his very brother...
Vance: (thinking: Twould seem... that... seeing as our very strategy has been made known to their eyes.) I shall end the very three of them.
Yes...
Tis a good thing to make notice of, dear reader...
For...
Indeed...
Was the very man by the name of Vance Hessenger wise...
Wise indeed to know...
That information...
Finds itself to be a necessary part of battle...
For...
Should a man be failing in the knowledge of his enemy...
Why...
Twould be no mystery...
Should the very man find himself defeated...
For...
Indeed...
Such a thing as the very weapon your foe is well versed in...
His mannerisms...
Whether he or she is quick to flee or quick to tarry...
Quick to think or slow to decide...
Indeed...
Why...
Even so...
Did the very shinobi general...
Fail not to take not of the very weapons...
Held by the Knights soon charging at him...
Yes...
Vance: (thinking: The one at the back holds a halberd, the one at the front, a blade, and the one in the middle, a mace.)
Indeed...
And thereof...
Was Vance Hessenger fully aware...
Even so...
Did he take note thereof...
Before the very man had even begun to do battle with them...
Indeed...
For...
Tis of a wise warrior...
To take full note...
Of his opponent's very stature...
Their very weaponry...
Even so...
The very look upon their eyes...
Even and so...
As the very three of them charged at him...
Yes...
Tis battle, dear reader...
Vance: (thinking: The one in the middle... Finds himself to be the most unsure of the three.)
And of it...
Keep your eyes upon your foe...
For...
Indeed...
It fails to be impossible...
To merely...
How you say...
Defeat your opponent...
With your very knowledge...
Of his or her person...
Yes...
And thereof...
Indeed...
Twould be wise to be prepared...
For...
Even so...
Does a foe with wise eyes...
Fail to not find itself in the life of man...
Yes...
Well...
I shall simply move along now...
And so...
Dear reader...
Do tell...
Have you fully understood the picture?
Well...
I suppose that remains a foolish question...
For...
In a mere moment...
The life of Sir Geldman Morrow...
Shall find itself forfeit...
For...
Tis common sense...
Should a prisoner be unnecessary...
Indeed...
Shall a warrior fail to even so take as much as one...
Yes...
And thereof...
Why...
Dear reader...
Did I not say that the very battle found itself in the district of Galehornne?
Yes...
And of that...
Why...
Was and is Galehornne no small district...
Why...
Twould take many a moment...
Even so...
For a young lad...
Running at a speed and foot...
Far superior to those of many a man...
Yes...
Indeed...
Twould take many a moment to do so...
Even so...
Upon the constant sounds of flames...
As they crispily burned at the very buildings...
As blocks of wood fell to the ground...
As smoke and heat...
Blinded and troubled the senses...
Putting them in...
Why...
I suppose...
Twould be comparable to a man or a woman...
Their very minds dimmed...
By the efforts upon their work load...
Yes...
And of that...
Indeed...
Would it be a true trouble...
For many a man...
Nay...
Even so...
For a well trained man...
To find the very state of the battle...
And of that...
Why...
Dare I say...
Did the boy by the name of...
Hmmm?
Ohohoho!
Twould seem you have already caught up with what I was trying to elucidate...
Yes...
For...
Even so...
As the very battle took place...
Did the boy by the name of...
Why...
You are fully and well aware...
Find himself dashing towards his quarry...
Yes...
Even so as the battle was shielded by buildings...
Even so as smoke and fire dulled the senses...
Indeed...
Did the young lad make a mad dash towards his quarry...
And thereof...
Would I say...
Did he fail to make even as much as a wrong turn...
Yes...
Even one...
For...
Why...
I suppose I may merely refer to it as...
Ancient wisdom...
Hmmm...
Nay...
Mayhaps...
The very wisdom of my time...
Yes...
The wisdoms...
The very scent of blood...
The very sounds upon the earth...
Why...
Even so...
Twas...
How you say...
A sixth sense of sorts...
Yes...
An understanding...
Indeed...
One born of experience...
Of learning...
Of instinct...
Indeed...
For...
Be it all the very things that found themselves upon the young lad's shoulders...
All the battles and experiences...
All the gifts upon his mind and body...
Even so, of the great lessons he had learned from his very teachers...
Indeed...
Did the young man...
Even upon the entry to this land...
The very dwelling of his invader...
Indeed...
Did he already know...
And was fully aware...
Of where exactly his foe was hiding...
Indeed...
For his mind and body...
Were now sharpened...
All upon the very idea...
To find those who dared...
To harm his fellow countrymen...
Yes...
And thereof...
Why...
Dear reader...
Have you ever once felt a presence?
Even so, upon a person of your knowing?
Hmmm?
Anger?
Why...
I suppose the very word and idea would be a bit fitting hear...
Why...
Hmmm...
Perhaps merely the idea...
Yes...
Never mind the anger...
For...
Indeed...
Even so as Jake Phyr did approach...
Did first Vance Hessenger take notice...
Of a young man a foot...
Many a moment away...
And of it...
Vance: (thinking: Another approaches...)
Indeed...
As for his younger brother...
Why...
He was already to throw his blade...
Upon his quarry...
Ending his life thereof...
Why...
Twas merely with a grab of his blade...
And a twist of his hand...
That he thought to end this man...
Twas nothing fancy, I would say...
And of it...
Did he aim at his very chest...
A wise choice, I must add...
To quickly and effortlessly end the life of a young man...
Indeed...
Tis a foolish pursuit, I may say...
To dilly dally...
For...
A man cornered...
Why...
The very end of machinations and imaginations upon his mind...
Dare I say...
Twould be difficult...
Mayhaps even impossible...
To decipher the very end thereof...
And of all that...
Why...
Did he throw the blade...
And was it...
Parried...
Hmmm?
Why...
Twould be a somewhat charming thing, I would say...
For...
Indeed...
Did the boy by the name of Jake Phyr...
Have the very mind as well...
To hurl his weapon at his foe...
And thereof...
Why...
Was his aim to a Hessenger...
Yes...
His aim...
Was to rescue the life of Sir Geldman Morrow...
Whose very mind...
Was at the moment considering many a thing...
One such being his potential demise...
Yes...
The very thought had him soon hopeless...
However...
Twas at the very last moment...
That a blade was found flying towards him...
At a speed...
The man by the name of Jon Hessenger...
Could barely perceive...
And of it...
Did the thrown blade find itself firmly stuck upon the wall...
And of the knife that Jon Hessenger was to use to end this debacle...
Why...
It merely bounced away...
Yes...
As though a very stone...
Thrown against a larger one...
Tis a poetic thing, I would say...
For...
Indeed...
Tis battle...
And even so...
As you, dear reader...
May find yourself frightened by the very beasts that threaten your victory...
Why...
Even so...
As you may find yourself victorious...
Would I say...
That in this world...
Tis not uncommon...
For yet another foe to show himself...
Yes...
And of that...
A foe...
Vance: (thinking: This one...)
Jon: (thinking: How be it...?)
Indeed...
A foe...
Who very well...
May spell the doom of your plans...
Indeed, dear reader...
Indeed...
For...
Truly, I say unto you, truly...
Tis battle...
And thereof...
Why...
Many a thing can occur...
Yes...
Well...
I suppose I may find myself stopping there...
Twould be quite lengthy in a short while...
Yes...
That much being said...
Hmmm?
A teaser?
Why...
I suppose we have the time for such...
And worry not...
I shall bring it into being...
Yes...
Ahem...
Upon a field of flames...
Tis a battle...
A young lad...
Of eyes and hair...
Red...
Two young men...
Whose eyes are prepared...
To murder the very lad...
And of the very Knights who remain...
Why...
They find themselves a few metres from the battle...
Merely watching in awe...
Of what is soon to come...
Yes...
A battle...
And of it, dear reader...
Would I say...
Twas the very battle...
That began it all...
Indeed...
The very battle...
That began the very great change in the lives of the three who chose to partake of it....
For...
Twas merely at the end of it...
That the very unprecedented changes upon their lives took place...
Yes...
Upon the life of the man by the name of Jon Hessenger...
Upon the man by the name of Vance Hessenger...
And, most importantly...
Upon the life...
Of the boy by the name of Jake Phyr
Indeed...
Well...
I suppose I shall merely halt there...
For...
Indeed...
Tis quite lengthy, I would say...
Do take care, dear reader...
Do find yourself taking care...
Indeed...
