First Psalm of the Blood Requiem: Psalm of the Enraged....

staggered...

lost in the heat of battle...

my sword stained with blood of different braves;
my sword stained with blood of different fools...

fools who sought for the most foolish of thrills: War...

war that has plagued millions,
war that searched for no reason,
war that stained hearts with hatred,
war that spawned rage...

rage that cost me everything:

my posture,
my blood,
my humility,
my pride,
my strength,
my sanity,
my feelings,
the very soul that I possess...

and they all fell before me...

enticing greed,
insatiable blood lust,
pointless aggression,
fury...

and when it was all over, I stood in the middle of the puddle of corpses...

shivering along the eerie silence,
deafened by the recurring cries of hatred...

i roared...

This is one of the 7 Psalms of Sven's sword, the Blood Requiem... Sven must engrave the 7Psalms of Frailties, the souls of the 7 Bards, in the sword... Their songs shall resonate, singing the requiem of this world, and the birth of a new...

"Despair of the seven, blood of the eighthth..."
- Words engraved on the Blood Requiem...
