What they didn't know was that although your people were peaceful, your warriors were fierce, and the most ferocious of all was you... their prince.

No matter how many times you were stabbed, shot, beaten or battered, you just wouldn't stop, the death of your brethren fresh in your mind as you cut down warrior after warrior. And you were only fifth-teen when this first battle took place.
