"The army is important. If you do not see this, perhaps you should give the position of King to me."
-
"Brother. The kingdom lives in peace and prosperity. There is no need for so much focus on the army. They are strong enough as is."
-
[b]Arthur's brother laughs.[/b] "It is no longer in peace!" [b]Outside, the two halves of King Arthur's army clash. One stood, firmly besides King Arthur's ideals, while the other side was corrupted by his brother's way of thinking.[/b]
-
[b]NorArthur stands [/b] "What have you done?!"
-
[b]Arthur's brother stands as well.[/b] "Younger brother, you do not deserve to be king! That should be my duty! After this war, I will end your life, take that sword of yours, and become king!"
-
"I will stop you."
-
[b]Knights come in, and guard Arthur's brother, as he backs out of the castle.[/b] "This war shall bring the most bloodshed of them all!" [b]He shouts, and disappears....[/b] [b]Time speeds forward, and Arthur stands, 10 years later, on the battlefield. His kingdom lay, dead. His army, divided, and dead. His parents, dead. His lover, dead. Only his beloved brother stood, by Arthur. He draws his sword.[/b] "Well, my brother. It has been a long decade."
-
[b]Norarthur simply stares back [/b] "Why have you done this?"
-
"I only ever wanted to be king... but my little brother...." [b]He snarls behind his helmet, and charges, sword raised.[/b]
-
[b]Norarthur steps to the side, tripping him as he passes [/b]
-
[b]He falls on the ground, and looks up.[/b] "Well then? End it! It's over! Everybody is dead! What's one more?"
-
"I am not like you. I am Merciful."
-
[b]He growls, gets up, and lashes out at Norarthur.[/b]
-
[b]Norarthur steps backwards. He draws his sword and stabs towards the brother's leg [/b]
-
[b]Excalibur cuts clean through, and he falls to the ground, yelling in pain.[/b]
-
[b]Norarthur takes the sword out and kicks at the brother's sword, sending it flying [/b]
-
[b]He gets up on one leg, and falls toward Norathur, fist outstretched.[/b] "If you will not kill me, then I shall do my best to take your life!"
-
"Then do so"
-
[b]His fist meets Norathur's jaw, knocking him down. He grabs his sword, and slashes downward.[/b]
-
[b]Norarthur rolls to side. Getting to his feet and stabbing his brother through the stomach [/b]
-
[b]Excalibur goes straight through him, and explodes with holy light. The brother falls, his body scorched and dead. Everybody around Arthur, dead. His family. His kingdom. His army. Only he remained standing.[/b] [spoiler]This is where Arthur suicides[/spoiler]
-
[b]Arthur sighs as he plunges the blade into himself [/b]
-
[b]As the blade touches Norarthur, Arthur pulls Excalibur away from Nora.[/b] "I think that that is all that needs to be seen...." [b]He says, sheathing his sword.[/b]
-
"Indeed."
-
[b]Arthur sighs, and looks up.[/b] "Well, now you know some of the past behind the fabled King Arthur."
