The Blood Knight went to the ruined Kingdom of the Fallen Sun
So he could be alone and hurt no one
He did not trust himself
As he knew, he was no longer the scholar, the Elf
For three hundred years he stayed in the ruined Kingdom
So he could control his Blood rage and regain his wisdom
Each night he would have dark horrid dreams
Each one filled with gruesome violent screens
He would wake up with blood on his hands
And countless animal bones around him in the sand
Each day he would bury the bones
Each day he felt as if he buried one of his owns
Then one night, he could not sleep but he felt himself fade
When suddenly, saw a bright light; he jumped up and readied his blade
"Show yourself," shouted the Blood Knight
"You there, the one who hides behind the bright light"
The light faded and came forth an old man
"Relax and lower your blade child, my name is Blan"
"I wish you no harm, as I too have come here to hide,"
Said the old man as he opened his hands wide
The Blood Knight looked at the old man and asked
"How do you know I am here to hide? Don't lie old man, tell me fast"
The old man smiled and said, "Your eyes say more than you do child"
"Besides, is there any other reason for a Warrior such as you to stay in a place this wild?"
The Blood Knight saw wisdom in the old man's words and lowered his weapon
With that the old man smiled and said, "Well that shall be your first lesson"
The old man offered him some tea and asked, "Do you believe in Auras, son?"
The Blood Knight nodded his head and took the tea "because son, it seems your Aura has come undone"
"You can see peoples Aura? And what do you mean undone, can you fix it?"
Once again, the old man smiled and said, "I can surely try, please come here and sit"
As soon as he sat, he felt pain, he felt as if his body had split into two
And then suddenly the pain was gone, he opened his eyes and bright light came into his view
He saw that it was no longer night, and the old man had disappeared
He also felt calmer, as if something inside him had been cleared
He looked around for the old man but all he found was a note
"Live free and be the hero you were meant to be, as I have lifted the dark coat"
The Blood Knight realized that the old man had cleansed him of the Blood Rage
He smiled, as he felt truly free after such a long time, he felt free of this ruined cage
So he carefully saved the old man's note and he picked up his sword
And he walked away from the ruined kingdom as he had finally gained his reward...
