A shattered kingdom on the verge of destruction. If they cannot live on any longer, they will live on in memory as those who refused to go down without a fight.

Sometimes you just gotta write a dramatically intense scene, you know? I love taking a small snapshot of a person’s life and seeing how much of the backstory you can fit into just that little length of story. I don’t recall what the exact inspiration for this thing was, but I know I had a ton of fun writing it.
