The Warrior King's End

An account witness by **Ovirr Parfin's** trusted Advisor and friend, **Ramilus** of House Reed.

It was the winter of 290 Hyllest Armies marches through **Perrianore** with great strength. Pillaging, looting and burning whatever lands and resources they could find for their envious greed had consumed them. The King of **Hyllest** did not participate in such campaign for , as we know he has already past his prime, and let his Heir , **Godrim Hill** lead the their army. Death and destruction has consumed **Perrianore** once again, and but this time the people were united against a common enemy.

**King Ovirr Parfin** rallied many warriors as he could, from the far-edges of Farcliff, to the distant Aurora City and even convinced some the Native Ranger on Fordrassil to provide their assistance to **Perrianore**. To muster such great army in short period of time requires a great deal of effort and resources. The people who looked up to **Ovirr** have provided whatever they could, from food, weapons, services and silver. This was no longer a petty Civil War, it was a war for the survival of the Kingdom.

For months they gathered in the Capital Wathetmoon, solidifying their position and defences. **Ovirr** realized that in this war he could die and lose Natura, **Cunneta's** Sacred Artifact, to the **Hyllest** Armies and leave the Kingdom to without a naming a proper Heir because if he didn’t, chaos will loom upon his pride, and his home, **Perrianore**. On the 1st month of year 291 he gathered his Sons, and proclaimed, **Xernas**, his first born to be the next King. His other sons did not hesitate to debate yet in the end they understood that **Xernas Parfin** has the capacity and humility to continue their fathers Legacy. Thus the **Crown of** **Perrianore** was passed on the **Xernas Parfin,** however Natura was not. **Ovirr** understood the power that **Natura** held, for it has corrupted those who have wielded it due to the Radiant Power it contained. The king decided to return **Natura**, for in this troubled times, even the greatest power to save the Kingdom would end up corrupting those that wielded it.

**Ovirr** marched alone for months back to the source of **Natura** and returned the artifact to the Guardian. He have ask the Guardian to make sure that those that those who wish to wield the Might of Natura should embrace humility and balance of Justice for it was the Oath that made it strong. When he returned, his face became old and wrinkled and his body becomes ever more fragile. His sons realized that the artifact was the sole reason their old father is still strong and healthy. Suddenly panicked a messenger came, he told the royal family that **Hyllest** armies are nearing the capital.

**Ovirr** ordered **Xernas** to stay and command the defences of **Wathetmoon**, for if ever he fell in battle, the Army of **Perrianore** would not go into disarray. He assigned himself as the general of the army, not the king , for he was a warrior at heart. **Ovirr** picked up his old claymore, Broken Promise, for one last time and held it in his hand and place over his shoulder, imitating a claymore warrior’s stance.

Part 2

In the morning of 12th Month of the year 291, 3000 Claymore warriors stood behind him, while being supported by 4000 Longbows and 200 Rangers of **Fordrassil**. Upon the Horizon lies their enemies, the **Hyllest** Armies had an estimated count of 12,000 Royal guards, with shields raised ready to brace for impact. From the front, **Ovirr** saw their leader **Godrim Hill**, spouting curses at us and boosting their armies morale.

The winter cold was not a hindrance for the **Hyllest** Armies for they are already accustomed to the bitter cold. **King Ovirr Parfin**, raises the banner of **Perrianore** and with a roaring voice, called upon the Army of **Perrianore**, "This shall be our final battle! Many of you will die, but you will not die in vain, for you have given your life for our Kingdom, for **Perrianore**! WE MARCH FROM HOMES! AND WE! SHALL! KNOW! NO! FEAR!". With a great cheers and morale, **Ovirr** and the 3,000 Claymore Warriors charged with great Fury! Cleaving their way through the Royal Guards, while arrows from the Longbows and Rangers pierces the armors of those that exposes it. For every warrior that was killed, they took 2-3 Royal Guards with them.

In the midst of battle, **Godrim Hill** faced **Ovirr Parfin** in a great duel. **Godrim** armed with the Forged Spear and the BloodOath, charges with his Shield trying to Ram **Ovirr**.

yet **Ovirr** managed to dodge, and swung his Claymore however **Godrim** shield blocked it. **Godrim** tried to pierce and stab **Ovirr** over and over again yet **Ovirr** manage to Parry and retaliate as much as he could. **Ovirr**, no longer have his youthfulness, slowly became tired and exhausted, while **Godrim** barely even break a sweat for he was built for war.

As much as **Ovirr** wanted to prolong their duel, he saw his army getting slaughtered, one by one they fell and died. He knew he had to end it, by killing **Godrim Hill**.

**Ovirr** repositioned himself, and charges at **Godrim**. He swung his Claymore, left and right, yet it could not break his defences. **Godrim** bashed his shield upon **Ovirr**, making him lose his posture, and with great power thrusted his spear on **Ovirr** piercing his leather armor. **Godrim** smiled, for he knew he won.

**Ovirr** looked upon **Godrim** with extreme determination and with his last strength, using his left hand to hold the spear the pierced him, his right arm brandished his claymore with great power. **Godrim** tried to block yet his shield failed him, for it broke into pieces and **Ovirr's** claymore, Broken Promise, landed on his shoulder and slashed it deep. **Godrim** was mortally wounded, for none can survive such wound. **Hyllest** **Army** was now in disarray, for their leader has fallen however **Perrianore** Army did not for they know that their king is safe, and **Ovirr** made his final sacrifice to the Kingdom.

**Ovirr** knelt in the bitter cold of the snowfield, slowly losing consciousness yet he was filled with bliss. He knew the Kingdom would last for he gave his throne to the one that deserves it, Natura was returned and he would die, not as king but a warrior holding his claymore till the end. **King Ovirr Parfin** look upto the sky, breathe his final breath, and died. It was a glorious ending for the Warrior King of Perrianore. Thus ended the story of **King Ovirr Parfin**, Uniter of Perrianore, the Warrior King, and a Humble Father.
