He stood tall, proud but without arrogance, brave but not stupid, mighty but not tyrannical. His armor was gleaming, radiating with the same brilliance which he showcases. His smile exudes confidence and his eyes were soft, warm, kind.
However, one should not take his kindness for weakness. Many poor fools have been slaughtered by his hands. He was absolute, decisive when it comes to life and death. At times he is merciful, sparing their lives, on darker days however, ruthless and cruel. Causing a bloody massacre within the battlefield. There was no in between, it was either feast or famine.
Respected by countless, they offered their lives in his name, worshiping him even though he keeps insisting that they do not. After many prayers and blood sacrifices, the Gods have bestowed a gift upon him, the gift of immortality. He could never die of old age or disease. The only was that he could be slain is if a sword was driven through his head. But with the combat prowess and incomparable skill with the blade and the shield which he possesses, it would be impossible to even get close to him.710Please respect copyright.PENANAoDc1ZNZKA1
He was invincible... 710Please respect copyright.PENANA0348Suv5Yo
Or so they thought...
It was not a warrior who took him down, nor a warlock. Even dragons trembled at his name but it was a common girl who killed the great one.710Please respect copyright.PENANAJel3JOa2Zj
How? How could a common girl kill such a mighty ruler? Poison? He was immune. A dagger? He would've seen it coming a mile away.
The answer is simple. She got close to him, made him laugh, made him cry. She touched him like no one ever did, she made him open up about himself to her. He fell in love with her.
One night she whispered into his ear," Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful?"
"You know I will," he replied without hesitation.
"But one day, you will still be young while I die. It'll be a painful day for the both of us," her voice croaked.
"I'll find a way where we can be together forever," he assured her.
"I've already found a way," she replied and brought out two diamond-encrusted daggers. He knew what this meant. He was ready.710Please respect copyright.PENANAhTAfG5LfLC
"Do you love me?" she asked as she plunged the dagger in between her breast.
"Always." And with that, a legend died.
