some days we hide away
one day we'll be bones
being sad is OK –
but I won't make it my home
look I am alive today
a fire within: I am not alone

Thought I'd edit that last video down to its core and re-upload this better version properly! I'd also like to add that this video is for everyone out there who may struggle with illness of any kind. Be it depression, anxiety, or some form of substance abuse, I want to say that there is always a way out. Get the right care, surround yourself with truly supportive (rather than enabling) people, and remember that your mind is also a friend of yours, so take good care of it.

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 :)

Please Read Whole Description
Passing through foreign territory, the old man encounters a Kensei who has practiced the way of the Samurai for a very long time indeed. The face beneath the Kensei’s mask remains hidden, but something tells the old Highlander that this Samurai has many stories of his own. Never before has the old man seen someone so dedicated to a single way of fighting.
If the poet (Basho) is right, that “summer grass” is “all the remains of warrior’s dreams” then Spring might soon arrive. If the old man were home, and saw his wife feeding the birds, he would know exactly what time of year it is, but all this traveling turns life into one long season – changes in weather merely asides.

This is what could be seen: The lives, the strays, veins, the Birch, the whole tree-house in pieces, then the firewood, the freed bird from the flue in June, the just-like-that of days, like clockwork, like the watch, and the likes, the knots, the originals, the wilderness, its dimensions keep growing like a beard, not just Herodotus, but aligned, be it math or Welcome mat. Either way, its been a while. Aye, it’s been awhile at that.

![Blind Highlander Vs. The Loner - Story/Description - [For Honor]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SDkm61xrwsk/mqdefault.jpg "Blind Highlander Vs. The Loner - Story/Description - [For Honor]
Rome sends out scouts looking for the old man, but it seems he has many Samurai after him as well. Not only does the Orochi appear everywhere he looks now, he recently quelled one Shinobi ambush after another - they seemed to appear from everywhere, out of shadows, producing clouds of dust and smoke.
And yet another Samurai was hot on his trail, a loner with eyes hidden by the brim of his hat, and a blade in each of his hands. This lone Samurai knew the art of feinting an attack. So fierce was his style of swordplay that even if the old man’s eyes had been better, it would have made little difference.
However, so impressed by the other’s skill, both the old man and the Aramusha refused to execute each other the first time they fought. Each was wounded enough that they agreed to part ways for a time, and heal up, before meeting once more to fight to the death.
When they met the second time the Aramusha gave the old man a very delicious hot green drink beneath a cherry blossom tree. “Matcha” he said.
It was the first word the Aramusha had spoken in years. Then the Aramusha took a stick and drew a large circle in the ground, made an X in the middle of the circle and pointed to the old man. Then, all around the circle he made symbols, a rough temple that marked Samurai, a bird that marked Vikings, a centurion helm marking Romans and a castle for Knights (he was a good artist with a stick and dirt!) and a new symbol the old man didnt recognize, and he repeated these symbols all around the circle. Then he slowly drew arrows from all of them pointing towards the X in the middle.
The message was clear: The Aramusha let the old man know that everywhere he went, every faction, even a new, unknown one, now sent warriors after the aged Highlander.
The old man nodded and patted the Aramusha on the shoulder gently. In a way, this made sense: only another lone warrior could relate to someone who’d been wandering on his own for as long as the old man had been trying to get home.
With that, he drank the last of his good green tea, which gave him a distinct sense of life, and he stood up with his Claymore in hand. The Aramusha stood up as well and nodded. It was understood between both men that regardless of their shared understanding, orders are orders.
The old man wondered if all Samurai were really sent to kill him. He remembered the greatest Kensei, the Kensei who taught him that life is both a celebration of being alive as well as a lament for the fallen. Would he ever cross paths with that Kensei again?
I must keep to myself, thought the old man.
After all, Vikings swore the old man would join them one day in Valhalla, and yet it was a word that was far from the old man’s ancient Celtic tongue, and so many Vikings had tried to take his life... None of it made sense.
My wife is my faction, the old man thought.
Ready yourself, he said to the Aramusha, who did not understand the old mans language but who, nevertheless, was already digging his foot into the ground for better traction.

If only these kinds of moments went as viral as salty For Honor videos. For all you newer players (and some older ones too), dont let anything get to you. Being salty has but two outcomes: being upset and causing others to be upset. Not being salty has limitless possibilities.
Or as the song in this video says,
Bubblegum kinda keeps my heart from gettin heavy and cryin
