Years ago a battle refuged across the land as commanders sought to destroy each other and set peace for their people. One commander stood out from the others as he had a different path to follow. He was fighting for freedom of his peoples ways of religion. He and his soldiers were not equiped well and they trained only for 3 months as the other armies were all veterans but were corrupted in their devilish ways of beheading peasants in their colonies. Their soldiers fought only to have a chance of survival.

A year passed and the war was still raging as armies plauged the land. It became an artic wasteland soon and men were dieing of sickness and the cold. The religious commander was called Angel, and his men looked to him as the word of god. The blizzard was becoming too much as one-fourth of his army was being whiped out in avalanches and the battles that the had fought. On one fateful day Angel and his army marched out to destroy all evil. Three men died on the march as the coldness got to them or they were too weak to walk any farther. They marched non-stop for 2 days and nights until they made it to their new campsite.

He dressed himself in his battle armor 3 days later and the charged into battle. He gave a strong speech to them to bring rage to them in battle. He told them, "If the oposing armies win this war, your sons and daughters, your wifes and neighbors, will be beheaded because of our religion. The way of God is the true way, so lets charge into battle and show them our path is the way of virtue!" The soldiers chanted in unison a saying they always say in their churches. Angel pointed his sword at the army they called "The Demons" and shouted, "CHARGE!" Soldiers yelled as they charged into battle as they clashed swords and spears as they exchanged lives with the Demons. Angel's army was being slaughtered in the fog of war as they filled the snow with seeping blood. Angel become the last survivor of the war as he still fought on the opposing army. He would not give up the battle just to protect his villagers. Finally he was shot down off his steed and fell to the ground as the army surrounded him. The Demon's commander pushed his soldiers aside as he walked over to the fallen commander. "Cut out his eyes." he said as he handed one of his soldiers a knife. Soon Angel's eyes were gone and so was his life as he was left to die.
