– Leaves Only to Return – Sure the old man had heard the Bards’ voices in the rain, and he tried to separate his True Love’s voice from the rest, but all of it began to feel as if it happened long ago, and it was as real as a copper kettle.
If he had told this to another person they would say he was mad. A Father somewhere had said, “the old man is too old to die” but in this dance between the dream-world and the real-world, the old man had visions that he was from another country, born into a different time, wielding a thin, long sword that had been so carefully smithed that there were the shapes of waves crashing along its blade.
Then he was sitting inside a home that was all lit up with light caught in round glass, magical controlled lightning, and there was a very flat square in front of him and it was lit up with moving images and languages on it. His wife was in the room with him. She carried a flat lightning box and spoke into it and her voice invisibly traveled through the air to her loved ones. The old man suddenly knew he’d been here for some time. He didn’t say anything to his wife, so as not to alarm her. What was stranger than all of this was how very normal it seemed to be.
Trees live inside of all human beings, and every Autumn, when their leaves turn and fall away — this is a brief moment of immortality; the leaves say: “I may only be a tree but every year I only pretend to die.”
Or so the Old Man thought.

This is only a preview. My gameplay is: no revives, no charms, lethal difficulty, no armor (I just really like how they designed those Traveler Rags :) I wanted to test out the fighting mechanics and was impressed by how I could tweak the 4 stances to my liking, particularly wind. And I was impressed at how visually stunning the game is, too. Hope you enjoy the gameplay and the ongoing story. Sorry about that first dog; at least the second one knew to walk away.

Bravery and Love are Nothing without Each Other
Thank you all so very much. I really have no idea how this happened, but Im grateful because this channel is beyond anything I couldve imagined when it started. That is BECAUSE OF YOU. A lot of content creators say this, but in our case (yours and mine) it really is true: your comments are actually part of the creative content on this channel now.
Therefore this video is for: those of you who love with deliberation, those of you who are in love, those of you who have been hurt by love and are healing, those of you who miss their loved ones, those of you who have lost loved ones, those of you who feel lost and need love, those of you who learn to love themselves by being loved by others, those of you who are teaching yourselves to love yourselves – also those of you who feel unloved and yet still try to become the love you seek; most of all, though, this video is for my wife, my true love.
Writing Prompt: The part of me that is hidden, that I wish I could share with the world, to make it a better place, is.... (This can be as long or short as you like, poem or prose.)
Just to clarify: Shaman is not the old mans wife. Mrs. Highlander is not in the video game, sadly. This is video is actually Mrs. Gosh playing For Honor for the first time.
This channel has gameplay but seeks to write short stories and poetry (in the descriptions) and in the comments as well.
By all means share with people who may not play video-games, and hit the notification bell if you’d like to know when the next round arrives.
As always: No being mean towards anyone in these videos or in the comments on this channel. Keep it clean, and be kind, not only here and in your gaming, but especially out there, in all our shared lives.

1) The quiet of a trees shadow; 2) the kettle boiling in the morning; 3) the sound of her heartbeat; 4) the silent images before falling asleep; 5) and that place all rivers lead – the ocean – where whales speak to each other over long distances.
Already feeling slow against the Wu-Lin, Im boxing to trying to shake off the rust for this Vortiger dude.

![one and the same [For Honor]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/N4HHkOzrwEg/mqdefault.jpg "one and the same [For Honor]
One and the Same – The old man remembered back when he was a very young lad, hunting with his father one day. His father was the best fighter in all the village and had slain more Romans and rival Celts than any other man.“Father, asked the boy, if I plant an Oak, will I become strong? And if I treat my horses well, will I be swift? These were sayings around their town, and the boy was merely repeating what he’d heard.
His father stopped them from walking just as the mouth of the river could be seen through the trees. The boy heard the sound of the water going over the pebbles in the bend. His father looked up at the sun through some leaves and wiped sweat from his forehead. He tugged at the thick white braid in his beard. “Those are very good things to do,” he said, “but they will not make you strong and swift on their own. They are one in the same: strength and swiftness.”
The boy was holding a small rock he’d picked up because he liked the feel of it in his hand. When he heard what his father said he squatted down and started to make a circle in the dirt with the rock.
“If you can catch an animal with your bare hands, and build a fire anywhere, if you can remember the stories told to you, and then recite them to others, that’s a start,” said his father.
“How will that help me learn to fight?”
His father ignored his question and said, “The more you understand yourself, the better you understand the world. You should listen more than you speak.”
And to this the young boy said nothing.
“Then, if you truly know yourself, you will never rely on worldly things, and you’ll be able to fight blindfolded.”
Had the boy not followed his father’s advice, he never would have met his wife, who was from a town on the other side of that same river. When he met her, some years later, she was the most striking woman he’d ever seen, and also, being the daughter of a great Bard, he enjoyed listening to her talk about a great manner of things.
Therefore he picked one violet and one white flower, and gave them to her one day.
And therefore she twisted their stems together and did, indeed, wear them in her hair.

Note about the video: it was very fun playing with HUD in order to learn the timing on the new reworked heroes. I especially had fun playing the peacekeeper (who beat me when I was using a HUD). We had many great matches and I appreciated them all.")

One should not lose their temper in battle, and when confronted by a new and powerful enemy known as the Shinobi, the old man’s blood boiled on occasion. They were difficult to catch, to be sure, but he would have to regain his composure to keep step with these fast-moving, incredible foes.

I actually think Raider is in a pretty good spot - not sure about the amount of stamina drain on stunning tap (as seen in this video). It would be good for the overall health of the game if the dodge GB were removed some day (along with the dodge-to-unlock-roll tech) since we are given weapons in the game to use them. Raiders overall speed and strength feels alright to me. Also, shout-out to Raider mains out there (and Lawbringers!!!) whove stayed with the heroes since release. Hope youre all enjoying the reworks :)
