Sidereal Wraith Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 (edited) What's he that wishes so? My friend, Siegfried? No, my fair friend; If we are mark'd to die, we are enough To do our forum loss; and if to live, The fewer men, the greater share of honour. God's will! I pray thee, wish not one man more. By Jove, I am not covetous for gold, Nor care I who doth feed upon my cost; It yearns me not if men my garments wear; Such outward things dwell not in my desires. But if it be a sin to covet honour, I am the most offending soul alive. No, faith, my friend, wish not a man from Serenes Forest. God's peace! I would not lose so great an honour As one man more methinks would share from me For the best hope I have. O, do not wish one more! Rather proclaim it, Siegfried, through my host, That he which hath no stomach to this fight, Let him depart; his passport shall be made, And crowns for convoy put into his purse; We would not die in that man's company That fears his fellowship to die with us. This day is call'd the feast of Kane. He that outlives this day, and comes safe home, Will stand a tip-toe when this day is nam'd, And rouse him at the name of Kane. He that shall live this day, and see old age, Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours, And say "To-morrow is Saint Kane." Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars, And say "These wounds I had on Kane's day." Old men forget; yet all shall be forgot, But he'll remember, with advantages, What feats he did that day. Then shall our names, Familiar in his mouth as household words Wraith, Benice and Draggy, Sooks and Dayni, Lightchaos and Twilitfalchion— Be in their flowing cups freshly rememb'red. This story shall the good man teach his son; And Kane’s day shall ne'er go by, From this day to the ending of the world, But we in it shall be rememberèd— We few, we happy few, we band of brothers; For he to-day that sheds his blood with me Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile, This day shall gentle his condition; And gentlemen in Serenes Forest now a-bed Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here, And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks That fought with us upon Saint Kane’s day.

Here hung those lips that I have kissed I know not how oft. —Where be your gibes now? Your gambols? Your songs? Your flashes of merriment that were wont to set the table on a roar? Not one now to mock your own grinning? Quite chapfallen? Now get you to my lady’s chamber and tell her, let her paint an inch thick, to this favor she must come.

Sidereal Wraith Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Twilitfalchion: To be, or not to be, that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles And by opposing end them. To die—to sleep, No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to: 'tis a consummation Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep; To sleep, perchance to dream—ay, there's the rub: For in that sleep of death what dreams may come, When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause—there's the respect That makes calamity of so long life. For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, Th'oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, The pangs of dispriz'd love, the law's delay, The insolence of office, and the spurns That patient merit of th'unworthy takes, When he himself might his quietus make With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear, To grunt and sweat under a weary life, But that the dread of something after death, The undiscovere'd country, from whose bourn No traveller returns, puzzles the will, And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of? Thus conscience does make cowards of us all, And thus the native hue of resolution Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought, And enterprises of great pitch and moment With this regard their currents turn awry And lose the name of action.

Spara Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 My Berwick Ironman's really gone to shit today. Ward died early in 10-m because he failed to shield 3 times in a row with like 85% chance, ending the "true ironman." I'm still going to continue the run as a soft ironman with rules akin to Ruben's. I finished 10-m, but it was a goddamn mess. Kramer died to an enemy who landed a 30%, adepted on 15%, and crit on 18% on the second hit. Leon just got destroyed by a crit from a random crossbow guy in the very bottom who was camping his event. Then, 10-1. No promoted Enid, and I forgot to bring Aegina, so Perceval and Sherlock mopped the floor with the wyverns. However, on the top right, Izerna failed to land a 95% hit with Holy, and got killed by a 6% crit. Managed to get the Raze Etoile on Faye, who did get two strength levels, and escaped Thor before he could chase me. Oh, and Perceval leveled defense... AGAIN. That's 2 3%s in a row. This game, I swear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
