Note: The character being described in this haiku poem is Xu Zhu, one of the most humorous characters from the Dynasty Warriors series. Forgive me if some of the phrases used here are a lot more simplistic than usual... Remember, Warriors Orochi is one of the many games owned by Koei. I do not have any claim to it at all, do you understand?
Hungry For Redemption
All thoughts of breakfast,
Occupied the simple mind,
Of one lonely man.
After losing his liege,
He joined a group of rebels,
Just to feed himself.
Enslaved by hunger,
The man fought like a tiger,
To earn a hot meal.
But not even food,
Would ever make him betray,
His lord's memory.
His cheeks burned with shame,
At the thought of choosing food,
Over his dear friends.
To make up for it,
He would gladly give his life,
For the chief's young heir.
Note: It took me a while to think of a title for this haiku poem, but I finally came up with one. In case some of you noticed how simple some of the verses are in this chapter, I wanted it to reflect Xu Zhu's innocent nature as well as his obsession with food. Not only is this man a big eater on the table, but he's also a heavy hitter on the battlefield.
