Hero?

By Hyperlink
More Info / Reviews

Chapter 1: Hero?

I see the blood on my sword.
I see my fallen enemy.
A person no different then I.
Who fought for his own nation,
Trying to make it a better place.
Did he have a family?
Has he a wife and children he’ll
Never see again?
Would they weep for him now that he’s gone?
Perhaps he did not even want to fight.
Forced to enlist by the government,
Drilled and trained by officers,
Who shout out:
“Kill or die!”
What is it that I’ve become?
What is it I’m even fighting for?
A hope? A dream? A lie?
Am I just another killer in my brethren’s eye?
Hyrule, the Triforce, the Goddesses,
Is this what’s best for them?
And what of thy enemy?
Were they given a chance of parley?
Did they attempt peace treaties?
Did we even attack them first!
Thirsting for more blood and hurt.
Such secrets are kept for a soldier’s life.
For that is what I’ve become:
A fighter.
A killer.
A reaper.
A destroyer.

I am no hero.

Well done. We don't have nearly enough poetry around here, I may look into creating some modificationss to the system to promote it. I like that you contemplate what it actually means to be a soldier in war, just a cog in the wheels. It's actually quite an issue for Link that the games don't show- he really is a killer.

A reaper?
Where did you find the term? l;suspicious.gif
Its cool we have poetry now, give Hyperlink a big hand.

Link_Dream says:

nice job!

Png_pyro says:

Reaper; as in death, the Grim reaper, gatherer of souls. (probablly.) the skeleton with the scythe?

linkiala says:

Ok now I understand.
l;sweat.gif I was thinking something else.
Ty.

Normally, I dislike poetry, but your story is very good.
