Eternities Threshing Floor
There was a King, He ruled with what was in his heart. Some respected him, some hated his iron rule, and still, some saw him for what he was. A person so desperately trying to be a man and so fearful of his failure that he was a tyrant unto himself. The King had a daughter the fairest princess to ever live many said. The King had no dominion over his sons for they were off to war, they did as they pleased but would not inherit the throne. The princess was locked away in the castle, only to see the world through the most opulent stained glass. She was an adult, her place on the throne was imminent, so she requested the ear of the King. The King, with decadent celebration, granted the princesses wish for he loved his daughter.

His Sacrifices
His sacrifices will never be forgotten. He left a giant hole where his souls’ vessel once stood. Now he keeps watching over those he loves. Sentenced to the life he built for himself. An enduring dedication to guard those who stood fiercely behind him. Ready to give their lives for his. Knowing they'd never have to. Knowing he'd give them everything he is. To his last breath. Now the depth and breadth of his swords' reach protect them still. He haunts the night, walking the valley in his death. So that they can continue giving life to all he helped to build.
