Anthem of the Damned

By Spectral Scribe

----------------------------

You did it, Sammy. You saved her.

The beast relented under faithful silver, and the damsel got her wish. The knight fulfilled his duty in the moonlit night, his prize a silver bullet dipped in blood.

You did it, Sam. You killed her.

You did what you've been asking of me all along. Hypocrisy slipped out the window, leaving behind a cold, pitiless breeze.

You did it. But I can't.

The damsel in distress will fall, the knight a coward clad in steel.

I can't save you, Sammy. I can't kill myself.

There are some wounds that will never heal.
