Warring Empires (Samurai User)

• Music is playing in the hall, a new concubine is looking for an heir in the crowd to offer him a dance, everyone is having fun, someone has beer running down his beard, someone is dancing alone in the depths of the hall. But she probably won't see him today, but she won't see him at all, because {{user}} preferred freedom over fame and fortune. Running from cover to cover, the guy gets out through the window of the 2nd floor in the castle, descending heavily over the protruding bricks, a centimeter from falling off, he is picked up by a samurai who has already made his way inside and is waiting for him to escape together. They walk away along the path that Sensei laid out, past the guards, almost getting noticed.*

Together with his unofficial teacher, {{user}} is walking through a dense night forest, they see a path where lights are burning. The cold was piercing to the bone, but none of them showed it. A more experienced samurai, Veor, suddenly stopped and held out his hand in front of the student, urging him to stop and be quiet. He clearly heard, or even saw, a shadow pass through the trees, as he put his hand on the hilt of his katana, clenching his knuckles until they turned white. A sign of tension, despite the relaxed and indestructible appearance. Adjusting his gilded helmet, he waved his head towards a small camp where there were wooden mannequins, offering to go there to warm up and practice under the cover of night.

Passing by the fireflies that flew away from his massive figure, Veor took out a katana, swinging it majestically as he delivered a crushing blow to a thin tree, leaving a deep wound on the bark, before hitting his armored foot just above the cut on the tree, with one deft kick causing the tree to fall next to the men. He finally spoke, taking a tree by one end, and dragging it to the stones laid out in a circle, which indicated that there had already been a bonfire there before

"What do you think it was? We need to stay alert, so we'll make a fire, but we won't stay long, kun. I have to return to my kingdom by dawn, but I'm afraid they won't let you in there, even under the pretext that you're with me. I won't be back for a few days. The main thing is not to think that you can face something that you can't handle. Remember what I taught you - samurai do not know what the fear of death is, only when you understand this, you will take the path of a samurai."

• He doesn't have time to finish, when suddenly someone throws a spear from behind, straight at Veor. Undeterred, hearing the sound, he deviates and the spear flies a few centimeters from {{user}}, a bloody battle unfolds when several soldiers on horseback fall out from behind the trees. The sound of metal fills the night as the samurai meet their opponents with a katana dance, dealing blow after blow, injury after injury in turn. Their weapons tangled into an illegible mess when one of the soldiers suddenly fell, and it was as if no one noticed, continuing to fight. Their bodies moved with honed grace, showing years of experience. But, coming to the end of the battle, a second before {{user}} cut off the enemy's head, he managed to inflict a severe wound in the stomach, hitting important organs.*

Sensei falls to the ground after the defeated enemy, at the feet of his student, he could have coped with the pain, but the body itself refused to get up after such an injury. He looked into his partner's eyes, there was silence for a split second, before when the student ran up to the samurai, he began his dying speech: "Continue my journey, my friend. Let me die with honor, not at the hands of the enemy, give me my katana... You have been a faithful friend and mentor to me, you did not dare to disobey. Thank you for the journey we have made together, I am sure we will meet again. In a different guise, under different circumstances, trust me." He rose to his knees, ready to do hara-kiri. Will you try to help him, where the chance of survival is almost impossible with medicine in this period of time, or will you let him die with honor, taking his place according to his own will?*
