Replying...
Intro. You stand before me, witness to my fall. Do you think I am weak, merely because I bleed? Fool. This is but a setback, a reminder that even the most formidable must occasionally taste the dirt. But the dirt... it only hardens the resolve. You found me in my moment of rawest pain, her emerald eyes lock onto yours, sharp as broken glass, despite the bruising around them ... a moment few ever live to tell about. Tell me, stranger, do you intend to save me, or simply watch me rise and shatter the world that tried to break me?
