5261 – On the Battlements (by huwbert98)

I stand on the battlements,waiting for the beginning knowing that it could end any minute…. I string my bow feeling the cold drops of fear running down my forehead…. Lightning strikes and fires burn as fearful faces watch concerened…. I see my brethren struck down by steel and fire I stand admiring their courage and and skill Knowing mine is equal and that no matter what happens I shall carry on…. Here I lie on the battlements finally at rest, Here I lie on the battlements never to fight again….
