Behind your hardened armor
Lays a brave and beating heart
Before the sword
There is a flame
A soul of light
Before we enter
Into battle
Let us not forget
For who and what we fight.
Truth, freedom for me
Feels quiet right.
Every tear I shed
May it be for this.
Forgive me for when
I miss the mark.
There are no real winners
Only realization.
Celebration of a life
Life lived right.
Sounds old fashioned
But beyond fashions
Lays the lion
Of one's true might.
Always present
Like a candle
That is forever.
Alight.

That's a nice looking suit of armor. The not so good old days of the sword and shield.
Many atrocities have been commited with the sword.

I watched a documentary years ago. Seems like it depicted Mongols and soldiers going door to door killing all people and taking their land to expand their Kingdom. Back then rulers would kill off a nation simply because they grew to the size of a potential threat.

Supposedly Sir Lancelot wore something like this. So it certainly of British design if its true.a reply to: Kurokage

Each person has a sword..and an eternity to use it!

But the question and emotional appeal of the sword play itself..is always based on win vs loss.. or which angles are more prominent. "Winning angles" so to speak..

Maybe Win, Lose or Draw?

I can't know the outcome until I've experienced it..

I think it is a British design but Sir Lancelot was a later french invention, if armour was worn by King Arthur and his "Knights" it would have looked more roman than anything else. They would never have worn plate armour that part of the tale was added a lot later.
