Wonderful

I enjoy the more stirring pieces, but this is good. I reviewed [Remember Us] and, I hope you take into account these words. This piece is wonderful, masterfully done. It seems to me to be the counter thesis of [Remember Us] and love it. Keep up the great work. As for a story, here we are.

A man stands atop a hill, a army behind him, as he gazes down at a small fortress, surrounded by a field of flowers. His army slowly moves to surround the small fort, encircling it with a wall of steel. The soldiers extend as far as the eye can see, the small fort has no chance.

The leader of the defenders, from the fort, stands on the wall, watching as the huge army circles his small fortress and defenders. He twists a small rose in his hand, rolling it in between his armored fingers. A hazy look is in his eyes as he turns his look to the rose. He releases his grip and lets the rose flutter down the wall, landing gently on the ground. He draws his sword, and holds it high, in grim defiance of his impending fate. His men cheer holding weapons high, they stare in the same defiance as their leader at the men who will be their doom. They are not afraid, they know their fate is sealed. But, they will not leave this world quietly.

This is what this song brings to me. Keep up the good work.

Here, Have a Story.

But before I contribute a story, I gotta say there was an animation on deviantART using this that made the fight it played during absolutely fantastic. Thanks for being a great musician.

Right then! Story!

%u2022 %u2022 %u2022 The steam shot out in screaming bursts as each of the locks released the ultimate weapon of mass destruction into the skies. As the airship ascended, two long-familiar acquaintances, finally aware of who each of them really were and what they had done in the past, clashed mercilessly with every last lethal intention. One fought to finish the job. One fought for revenge.
Years upon years of animosity and sorrow were being unleashed here and now. Never had the world been witness to such a terrifying show of power from both. Their final dispute threatened to ruin the land for miles around.
And there was nobody to stop either of them.
Came the break of that earth-shattering duel, however, the bastard swearing to "finish the job" escaped by the tail of the monstrous airship as the last yards of it left for the sky.
But this hardly meant the end of all that. The revenge-hungry one would not let distance end it.
With one mighty explosion and a flight up towards the fleeting juggernaut, this fight would end in an airborne pursuit. One's hatred could destroy this evil. One's hatred could destroy this world.

oooh, I do love animations, if you could please pm me with a link to this animation, i'd love to see it :D! And thanks for the kind words, I don't consider myself a great musician, but I like to think i'm on the journey to eventually become one.

And now onto the story :)

I really liked your descriptive sentences here, the flow and imagery painted both fluent, simple but mad efficient. My personal favorite segments were the lines of emphasis

"And there was nobody to stop either of them." as if spoken as a matter of fact. As well as "One's hatred could destroy this evil. One's hatred could destroy this world." It really makes you wonder who is evil here and for what. Clearly this person fighting for revenge does so with a will so strong that fleeing, or even withdrawing was never an option. To pursuit, to punish and above all, to destroy was the only applicable option running through their mind.

Thank you kindly for this story, it was quite the treat! Thanks again for the review, i'm glad you liked it!

Welcome the Four Horsemen.

Sounds like something from Runescape really.

The end is near

at least if you hear this in a movie/game. Great job.

you should make a Warhammer 40K game

Heck, it would be a good theme for the Imperium in warhammer 40K, or even a new Total Annihilation game!
