CHAPTER 1: EPILOGUE

"'Year: 190'

The blistering winds and the scolding weather have hindered and impeded our soldiers. The Han Dynasty by this time is now crumbling into a Dynastic end, leaving only rubble and the great successes in its past burning in ashes. Here we are now, encamped in front of Luoyang, ready for the blood shedding battle of Hulao Pass. Our hearts are now thumping with fear and anticipation. Death was our number one fear, but our second was Lu Bu...

Lu Bu, warrior of all warriors, spears of all spears and his prowess was said to equal that of a dragon. Riding on his famed steed, Red Hare, he seeks for opposing challengers to fill his bloody lust. A lust that may never be filled...

Dong Zhuo's forces must've been quite impressive. This whole army is formed with all three kingdoms (Wei, Shu and Wu) and this is how much strife and strength we need just to defeat one single enemy, Dong Zhuo. Everyone had a fiery intent, and that intent was to live, we all wanted to just live a harmonious life with our family. And cherish our time with them too, but life is not like that, life is not as sweet as a cherry nor is it as mellow or bright as the sun itself. No, instead life for us was tormenting, harsh and gloomy and instead of living our lives with our family, we were recruited and forced to risk our lives in battle... As we kept thinking about our possible demises, our intent was fanned, and anxiousness grew and grew...

A rusty creak echoes through the whistling air. That's when we all realized that the Gate had opened. And, from beyond the swirling haze were silhouettes of men and spears. An awkward silence there was, and each soldier looked at their adversaries, their possible death bringers. Frost and the bitter-cold had weakened us physically, but our will to survive, our will to fight was stronger than them and will remain strong...

There was no peep from anyone, all mouths were sealed shut, and there we stood, a couple of yards away from the infamous army. Still as statues we were. One man took the first step, and the riot begins..."

-- Major Shang
