A cryptic muse

[Their weapons had been exhausted and all had died or fled. Just these two remained facing each other. And this was when they talked]

1507- I hate being against you. And what I hate more is that it's you whose forcing me to do this, brother. You let your blood and your people down.

2912- It is easy to love your blood and your people- and think that they are the world. It's very convenient to grow accustomed to the box you've been brought up in and believe that 'family' is above everything. It is the easiest thing, to have such a local domestic object of faith and never bother to look beyond. But in reality, life urges us to do the difficult things; to take challenges and break free of all these binding chains. I have realised this and have joined ranks with people among whom I truly belong. It causes you pain, I know [smilingly], and you can't understand what I say as you are too deeply weighed by affection and gratefulness. So you see, this is how I have grown greater- I can hurt you; while you cannot hurt me. I am freer than you are.

1507- I say this again, you have been led to a self-deluded world of immorality. But I won't try to move you. One day you'll realize this yourself. I just hope to see that day soon.

2912- [laughingly]So I am deluded? Remember, I am the elder one. Once, I was just like you and you'd be just like me one day.
Good bye......brother!

[One can never expect to walk away unscathed from infront of an enemy. But to show one's back to one's opponent, regardless of this, shows how well one trusts their weakness.]
