Hero's Chronicles

“When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.”

How strange is it that we are dragged into life so unwilling. And yet we cling on to what we have, so unwilling to let go. Life isn’t about the amount of breaths you take, its the moments that take your breath away. I would deduce that dying can be included in one of those moments.

The Death of Prince Romulus

All my life I have seen many strange and curious things and have learned some of the hardest lessons in life. The first is to learn to love everyday like it were your last. The other being to find something in life worth dying for, otherwise you can never never truly live life to the fullest. All my life I have lived by these simple rules and all my life I have searched for that one aspect that would make my life meaningful. and now my life is at an end, you truly do not know what you have until it is gone…

Through my travels I have crossed fierce rivers, vast desserts, sweeping plains, and majestic mountains. All of which were traversed in search of my purpose in life. And low and behold, I found it right were I started. In search of a home I left behind once in a lifetime friends and comrades, some I would never see again. My time with the Immortals were the greatest in my entire life. And I am and will always be an Immortal of Rome.

As I write these last words I can feel my life slipping away from me. My son, Aquila, will be left without a father and I will leave this life with a guilty conscious. Though I have no regrets now. Why waste life worrying about things that cannot be changed? One cannot argue with the sun after all. But I diverge. My son will have the chance to set everything straight. Though my life has not been without mistakes I do not feel that it was not without a purpose. I believe that fate brought me to these lonely shores so that I may discover a poor boy orphaned by its parents and that I would raise it as my own. And now the boy will have a chance to find something that I have been in pursuit of my entire life. The home I left behind. And so ends the last will and living testament of Prince Romulus, First emperor of the Immortals of Rome.

Letter directed to Aquila Romam, son of Romulus

Dear son, if you are reading this then I have already met my inevitable fate, the fate every man must face some time in life. I wish I could have grown old and have held my grandchildren, but life doesn’t always turn out as planned. Though when my time came I was ready to accept it even if you are not. I knew my time was coming and I prepared for it. You must carry on where I can no longer. I leave everything I own. My riding horse, my armor, my shield and sword, and most importantly the eagle. Return it to the Immortals, leave tonight and ride due north. Do not stop to speak to anyone, because I fear the assailants that slew me will soon come after you as well. continue as far as you can until you reach the sea. There will be a boat waiting for you there. Take it out of the bay and when you find yourself in unfamiliar waters continue into the rising sun. With luck, you will find yourself in the land of Godville. And your true journey will begin. Be strong and remember that I will be with you always. Have faith and trust in your old man. I could have not have been prouder to have you as my own. I love you Aquila Romam, the Eagle of Rome.

And so ends the life and adventures of Prince Romulus
