What Would You
Do?
DragonKnight19
Do You have what it takes to be a hero?...
What would you do?
If you were just an ordinary
ten year old
Who had never worked hard your entire life
Whose
days consisted of playing in the woods with your friends
Until one
day, a talking tree tells you that you are far from ordinary,
That
it is your destiny to leave your childhood behind, battle the forces
of Evil, and save your kingdom from destruction?
What would
you do?
Would you laugh at yourself, saying that trees don't talk,
so you must still be In bed, dreaming?
Or would you accept his
challenge, and go out into the world to make a name for
Yourself,
facing trials, hardship and danger?
What would you do?
If a
princess asked you to help her protect her kingdom from an evil man
from The desert, who hides his destructive plans behind a mask of
subservience?
Would you laugh at her, telling her to stop being
silly, to not judge strangers, And to go back to playing with
dolls?
Or would you go on a quest to unite three broken races,
gather their ancestors' Three most precious heirlooms, and use them
to beat the evil man of the desert?
What would you do?
If,
while exploring an old cathedral, you discovered an ancient blade, a
holy Weapon with the power to smite evil?
Would you go tell a
grown-up, and let somebody else handle the problem with the Evil man
from the desert?
Or would you step up, and like Arthur drawing
Excalibur from the stone, wrench The blade free of its ancient
resting place, embracing your destiny as a hero?
What would
you do?
If you came to a roadblock in you quest; the entrance to
your next objective is Out of your reach?
Would you shrug your
shoulders, give up, and say, Oh Well, I Tried?
Or would you face
your obstacle with determination, and find some way to Overcome
it?
What would you do?
If a little boy asked you to save
his father, who had gone into an active Volcano to fight a dragon
which is threatening his people?
Would you take one look at the
fire, brimstone, and boiling lava, and turn your Back on the little
boy, saying you are brave, but not crazy?
Or would you answer the
child's plea, plunge yourself into the flaming heart of The volcano,
rescuing countless innocent prisoners who were going to be the
Dragon's meal? Would you take on a fire-breathing dragon much larger
than you, To put an end to his reign of fire?
What would you
do?
If you went to visit a childhood friend, only to discover that
her tropical Paradise is covered in ice, and she and her people are
trapped beneath it?
Would you say Oh Well, There's Nothing I Can
Do, and start looking for a warmer Place to vacation?
Or would you
have what it takes to fight a monster as intangible as water, break
The curse, melt the ice and free your friend?
What would you
do?
If a village was threatened by an invisible phantom, bent on
destroying their Very way of life?
Would you walk away, saying
that you can't fight what you can't see, and Besides, it's not your
problem anyway?
Or would you brave the darkness of the catacombs,
face the terrors that lurk in The shadows, and confront the phantom
to save the village?
What would you do?
If you had to trek
into the featureless wilderness of the desert, with only your Heart
to guide you, to find a cave, inside which lurk two evil sorceresses
Plotting your doom?
Would you get cold feet, not wanting to get
lost, and instead turn your back on Your quest, your kingdom, and
your destiny?
Or would you push on, getting lost but having the
fortitude to find your way, Face the many perils of the cave, all the
while knowing that the two witches are Just waiting for you to walk
right into their trap?
What would you do?
If after all
this, once your quest is completed and your mission is Accomplished,
the princess you've been helping all this time disappears right in
Front of your eyes?
Would you run away and hide, hoping that
you're not the next to get abducted?
Or would you would you
confront the evil man of the desert, with his great power And black
magic, and fight him in one on one battle, for the sake of the
Princess, the kingdom, and your destiny?
Would you have the
courage to repeatedly put yourself in harm's way, fight off Hordes of
monsters, and establish yourself as a legend?
What would you do?
