battle [Theme] Page 14

The great battle is a terrible thing, ' said the old knight. But in the midst of blood and carnage sometimes there is beauty that can break your heart. I'll never forget the sun setting over a Field of red Grasses. Ten thousand people died there, and the air was full of moans and lamentations, but above us the sky was boiling gold, scarlet and orange and was so beautiful that I cried because my sons will never see it.

For a knight of the Royal Guard battle truly never ends. The threat can be everywhere and nowhere, at any time of the day or night. Pipes are not alerted to the appearance of the enemy - vassals, servants, friends, brothers, sons, even wives can hide daggers under the cloaks and plot to kill. For a knight of the Royal Guard in the hour of battle there are ten thousand hours when he's awake, waiting silently standing in the shadows.

Also the ironborn are feasting before the battle. A taste of life when death was on the doorstep.

After the battle many warriors.

Victory goes to those who are always ready for battle. Defeat creeps up on the unwary and lost vigilance.

No matter how hopeless wasn't the upcoming battle, do not panic in advance.

Fatigue is a necessary part of any battle.

You can be an excellent warrior, but not pass the test the first battle.

You're not looking, master of the sword. Time for teachers to you have passed. From now on the only, and best, your teacher will become your enemy. Learn from him. Not just kill him, but take his soul. Take away his best techniques that he used before he died. Take away his cowardice to help him living for another moment, his courage to those who join his force before his death. When the living die, whether it is human or Orc, he can't hide anything from you. He uses the best that it has to survive. This is the best take by right of conquest, and go on to the next enemy. A warrior's path, the only possible. How far you go this route, depends on you.

During the war with Philip was regarded by some as more profitable to start a battle away from home. "Not about this you should think,' said Archidom - and that is where you have to fight, to be stronger than the enemy."
