He Conquers Who Endures (event)
Character: Count Shahu Kaliatama of Kasni
I have served my people for as long as I can remember. Worked tirelessly and followed every advice my council gave to me. Yet they gossip behind my back, mocking my abilities to rule my own lands. Words so sharp yet painfully true that sometimes I struggle to wake from my bed, not daring to enter my court lest I hear those same jives and jeers. My only solace is in the company of the soldiers I employ, the tension of a mock battle and the art of the blade.
Two years ago, my real strength would be tested when the mad Adlurbad king attacked me. All in some idiotic concept of ending our faith. Fool! One can't change the hearts of people by foolish invasions. One needs to bare their chests to the people and protect them!
Driving away his forces much bigger than mine, my fame grew ever tall. Morphing from the 'Blundering Fool of Kasmi' to the 'Champion of Daramarjarat', propelling the strength of my forces even further. Only now do my people see my true brilliance and talent!
To endure all odds and succeed is the true sign of worth.
