Hold Up That Sword

Hold up that sword when truth is violated... don't destroy everything and everyone: only evil must end for peace to survive! Fight better than a warrior with a bloody urge who seeks victory and revenge; what satisfaction is there in being alive... after all enemies are wounded and gone? They would never learn love, but die tormented as marthyrs, slaves and peacemakers have! Hold up that sword, by speaking your command when peace is broken and havoc spreads quicker than fire... to bring all another dire: remember Attila when he ransacked Rome? Chalithra, have more compassion towards mortified people who have been exploited: you must explain to them that's wrong to be enslaved... without having the vision of a place called, " Home. " Barbarians were those who trashed everything and killed, but they lived in different times: violence against order and civility; today there's another evil arising: greed for power against truth and humility... Chalithra, carefully choose your allies! Character: Chalinthra
