from the cross
Wood
The battle was nigh and only the weight of his family's treasured relic around his neck kept him calm. He knew he had to fight. The hoards ranged against them would settle for nothing less than the slaughter of every man, woman, and child in the city.
He pulled his sword from its sheath and raised it high, prepared to strike the first enemy that came within range.
And then an arrow stuck him in the chest. He grasped at his breast trying to find the wound, but there was none. The arrow had pierced the wood of his relic.
