A Final Attempt (Story)
Legions of chaos march against the capitol city of men. Demons and corrupted souls together in a united attempt to overthrow the king of all that is good. And in this time of reckoning, the king shouts to his men from a scaffold, "Today is not the day we die! Today is not the day we suffer! Today is the day when we show those bas*ards and bi*c*es what real men are capable of!"
With those words he withdraws his sword and turns around just as the main gate collapses. Behind him rally the no longer frightened thousand or so men, willing to fight to the end. In those final moments, the king runs forward, killing a good many before he himself is slain by that death-inpiring leader of theirs, the Wraith who claims the sould only of those who are worthy of him.
Yet not all in futility, for from beyond the mountains come united the Renegades who have seperated from that empire long ago, under the banner of the Wizard who swore aid to the king long ago.
So it was that the great battle was carried out, and though death inspired sadness, it also gave birth to new beginnings.
