Echos of Honor: The Last Samurai

Part 0

In the shadow of the setting sun, amidst the battlefield so vast,
Stands a lone samurai, his spirit weary, his strength amassed.
All around him lie his comrades, fallen in the fray,
Their valor and their sacrifice, remembered on this day.

Once a proud and noble clan, warriors fierce and true,
Now reduced to silence, in the aftermath they knew.
For a great war had swept across the land, leaving devastation in its wake,
And amidst the carnage and the chaos, only he did make.

With heavy heart and weary step, he walks among the dead,
Each fallen comrade, a silent testament, to the blood that they had shed.
His katana by his side, a trusted blade of old,
A symbol of his honor, of stories yet untold.

He kneels beside a fallen friend, a brother in arms now gone,
And with a whispered prayer, he vows to carry on.
Through fields of sorrow and despair, he wanders all alone,
A solitary figure, in a land no longer home.

Yet amidst the darkness, a glimmer of hope remains,
For in the distance, the sound of rain upon the plains.
With head held high and spirits lifted, he looks up to the sky,
And as the rain begins to fall, he feels a tear in his eye.

For in that moment of quietude, amidst the stormy weather,
He finds a sense of peace, a bond that binds together.
And though the scars may linger, and the memories remain,
He knows that he'll endure, through sunshine and through rain.

So with katana in hand, and a heart that's strong and true,
He'll honor those who've fallen, in all that he will do.
For he's a samurai, a warrior brave and bold,
And in the face of adversity, his spirit will not fold.
