„only in our worst can we become our best "
So Aries, WHAT WILL YOU DO.
The last stand of bravery against monsters of this world.
Protect or die trying.
Wooden spear was shaking in the man`s hands.
YOU CAN HELP HIM.
Goblins smelled him.
They wanted him.
They wanted his blood.
And blood of the one behind him.
HE IS ALONE. YOU CAN HELP HIM.
Goblins charged.
Middle creature was fast.
A little too fast to steer his movement.
And so a tip of sharpened wood got straight through his head.
YOU HAVE THE WEAPON. YOU CAN HELP HIM.
Aries finally remembered.
He woke up with the sword.
USE IT. HE NEEDS YOU. SHE NEEDS YOU.
Mid goblin on the spear spit blood into the mans eyes.
He was pushed back by it and by his charge.
And was blinded with its green blood.
DO IT. YOU CAN SAVE HIM.
Aries put his hand on the handle.
It's the first time he even held a weapon in his hands.
~I ….. I can`t. ~ Aries stuttered while looking at the sword.
~I don't know how. I never did ….. sword things ~
DO NOT WORRY MY CHILD-
Aries felt warm hands on his shoulders.
The feeling from before came in again.
But….. lighter. Nicer. And empowering.
-I CAN GUIDE YOU. YOU JUST HAVE TO MOVE FIRST.
-GYAAAAAAAAHHH – man scried.
Left goblin finally got to the man.
Sinked his teeth in the shoulder.
Red blood of a human mixed with greenish monster insides.
Peasant tried to shook the goblin off.
He almost got it.
But the last goblin was still there.
And was about to strike.
Aries felt some string break inside him.
PICK UP MY BLADE.
Metal moved out of the leather sheath.
Aries wasn`t there exactly.
Didn`t listen to the goddess anymore.
He held the handle strongly.
Blade was sharp.
And mirrored the sunlight perfectly.
His eyes went white.
Like a trance.
Or a berserker state.
NOW. SHOW ME MY CHILD. HOW WELL CAN YOU WIELD IT.
AND THUS
HE JUMPED OUT.
AND STRUCK DOWN.
