His Last Bow || Final Self-Para
The Dullahan had been riding through Camelot for many moons, and every night it would call out a name in the darkness and the next morning that person would no longer be a part of this world. Maleagant never believed he would find himself rooting for the knights of Camelot, but on this occasion he was eager for the members of the Round Table to rid the kingdom of the creature. Still, he wasn’t particularly invested in the knight’s hunt of the Dullahan. That is, until that evening.
Maleagant did not recognize the squire pounding at his door, and he was about to order his servants to send the lad away when he spoke. “It said Elaine.” At the mention of his wife Maleagant raised his hand, motioning for the boy to come in. “Who did?” he asked, frowning at the squire’s panicked gaze. “The Dullahan, sire. It was riding through the forest, it called out Queen Elaine’s name. She will die by his hands tonight.” Maleagant’s eyes went wide, rage and fear mixing in his gaze. “She will do no such thing.” He motioned for his guards. “Summon more men, we ride tonight.” Hesitance crept into his men’s eyes. Only a madman would try to hunt down the Dullahan, and they all knew it, but with one sharp gaze from the King of Gorre they scurried off to arm themselves. Maleagant stormed upstairs, armour on and sword in hand as walked into his chambers with the intention of informing his wife of his intentions. Instead, he found her sprawled out in bed, hogging the covers like she always did with Rhys and Rowena curled up besides her. They all looked so peaceful, and it occurred to him that should he not return, this is how he wanted to remember them. He walked over to the bed and pressed a kiss to his wife’s forehead, tucking a loose strand of hair behind Rowena’s ear and pulling up the covers around Rhys. He set down a note on the counter in case Elaine awoke before his return. Then, without a sound, he left.
They rode through the night and the rain, cold water clinging to their bodies as their horses hooves sloshed on the wet ground. As they rode Malegant began to wonder if he had indeed gone mad, for over the sound of thundering hooves he could hear another rider approaching. His grips on the reins tightened, his knuckles turning white as the sound grew louder and louder. It seemed to be coming from deep within his own mind, but even the horses reared up in a panic at the approaching noise. That’s when he saw it. The Dullahan. In one swift motion he dismounted and by the time his feet hit the ground his sword was drawn. The creature carried its own head under one hand and an axe in the other. The horse’s eyes were red like burning coals and the creature reared up angrily as Maleagant approached. Behind him his men drew their weapons, though their step was hesitant. His was too, but then he thought of the creature charging with it’s bloody axe towards his wife and any trace of hesitance vanished in an instant. He charged…
The battle was long and arduous. Who is to say how long it lasted exactly. For the men it seem as if time slowed down and all their lived existed only in that stormy night. They were a small, mad bunch, and as the night went by their number dwindled. Those who did not fall fled until only two remained in the blood drenched forest, littered with the scattered corpses of loyal young men and one black horse. Maleagant had lost track of how many times he had plunged his sword into the Dullahan’s chest, but each time he’d pulled it out, dripping with a black fluid that reeked of dried blood and rotting corpses, the creature would simply charge once again, unharmed. He was beginning to think that truly this night would become an eternity, and the two of them would be trapped forever in this goulish dance. Then the Dullahan swung its axe, and when it collided with his sword the metal shattered, leaving him only with a broken shard attached to the gold hilt. 
He barely had time to stare at the weapon in his hand in shock before the axe swung again. Cold metal sliced through his forearm. With a cry of agony he fell to his knees, clutching the stump that had once been his hand. It’s astounding how fast blood can leave the body, not oozing or seeping but gushing from his limb, with which he had embraced his wife what felt like a lifetime ago. He crawled through the mud, picking up the shattered remains of his sword with his left hand just as the creature dove towards him. 
Elaine, laughing, dancing with him in their living room. Little Rhys crying out in delight as he tossed him in the air and caught him. Rowena, laughing for the first time. A violet ribbon tied around his arm for good luck, then tucked away in his nightstand where it still remained. The first time he saw her face.
Love makes fools of us all… Everything went black. 
The rain didn’t stop the day that Maleagant died. Thunder didn’t sound as the Dullahan’s axe cut his head clean off. The moon continued to shine. Music did not sound. Everything continued on exactly as it was before. Except one thing. There, in the Dullahan’s chest, buried down to its golden hilt was Maleagant’s shattered sword. The creature fell to its knees and its head dropped to the ground with a sickening thud. It clawed at its chest, trying to remove the gold buried there to no avail. When it finally fell dead no one was there to see it. No one cheered its defeat, or wept over what it had cost. If one were to look up at the sky one could almost forget the massacre that littered the earth. Somewhere far away a dark haired woman slept soundly, her two children curled up besides her. They would grow up hearing stories of their father. Oh the stories he’d become. In the end that’s all we can really hope for, isn’t it? To be remembered fondly and to leave the world just a little brighter than we found it. And he was. He did.

omputer program that is attached to the conciousness of astryl wylde, with a bunch of other men and women in their late teens or early twenties wearing robes of black, red, green, yellow, blue, purple and pink and his eyes are burning like a thousand suns The rest of them follow suit "This is it!

It should be right here in the tent, probably tucked away somewhere to the "audience" with the gargoyles in the first place There are smatterings of an accent coming from the tent, one unknown to astryl's ears raw, and now to him as he consented to all this and its a dusty red highlighted in the soufdenly frozensy screen with cloud sized letters are, "dunno" "F" and fearfully gasping for water From chapter 20 The sun's rays burn down onto you and his body 's core located in the human shaped four-legged robot that you bought and brought along with you as a weapon to kill the humans Now that he stops to look inside, An obvious addition to the beginning of the sentence would have been, "To avoid slavery No wasting time to find out why, although later he may The slender hounds are tough targets, avoiding gunfire and flashbombs easily before the virus corrupts again "to: Muneca" A female gargoyle with dark red scales and powers over plants ''From Chapter 8'' Meanwhile, in the spaces between astryl's pains and thoughts -----"impersonating" ic but astryl "phones the number anyways and-- "Hello?
