The Tale of Kalimdor
Many years ago, during the time of gods and goddesses. There was a normal soldier of the gods who through hard work and determination became a god, and a powerful one at that. This is his story, the story of Kalimdor.
There was once a blacksmith named Daneth Trolbane. But there was something special about this blacksmith, not only was he the best blacksmith but he was a blacksmith for the mighty gods of Mount Olympus!
One warm day in June Daneth had a son, who was named Kalimdor Trolbane. Daneth loved and cherished his son with all his heart he was even willing to give his live so that his son could live, just as any other parent would. Daneth’s greatest dream for his son was that one day his son would be able to join the ranks of the gods.
When Kalimdor could finally hold a sword on his own, Daneth began to train and sculpt his son into the man he had always dreamt him to be.
As time went on and Kalimdor grew strong and wise. A few months before Kalimdor’s eighteenth birth day Daneth decided that it was time that his son finally gained equipment that was fit for the gods! With his goal of give his son such equipment of such prestige, Daneth went to the gods in search of their approval. The gods approved of Daneth’s request and sent him on his way.
Daneth crafted Kalimdor’s shield first. He smelted the great shield in fel fire which was so hot that even Prometheus himself would have to handle with great care so that he would not burn himself. But if was not the fire that gave the shield its great power it was the adamant steel. Adamant steel was said to have such great powers that not even the gods could completely control! Thus making it the perfect material for a shield. Daneth nam...

...gods were amazed. Kalimdor told them what happened on the battle field and the gods were so grateful and astounded, that not only did they let Kalimdor keep “the Reapers Slayer” but they also had him join the same ranks of them. The rank of the gods.
Now that Kalimdor was a god he was given his new powers which were his ability to heal people with light. Kalimdor was also given another power; he was given the ability to resurrect people who had died for unjust reasons. With his new powers Kalimdor ran to his father’s resting place and brought his father back to life.
From that day forth Kalimdor continued to heal those who were in true need, defend those who needed defending, and granting miracles of life whenever it was needed.
As for Kalimdor’s father he spent the rest of his days knowing that his dream had come true. His son had finally become a god.
He owned a “Tung”, or a pitchfork, and used it for farming. When the vermin came to attack him, he had it with him, and he used it as his weapon. This was the first time he had fought someone else and released his Bloodwrath. Bloodwrath is the anger in battle that most warrior badgers have when the fighting starts. Gorath had used his Bloodwrath before to move enormous boulders after being told he couldn’t do it, as well as using it to take down trees that were in the way. Trisscar Swordmaid, Triss’ full name, uses the Sword of Martin the Warrior. Trisscar Swordmaid escapes to Redwall and is visited by the founder and warrior of Redwall in a dream, since he has been dead for quite some time. He urged her to take up his sword and fight to defend Redwall Abbey and attack Riftgard, her former prison. Trisscar Swordmaid fights to free fellow slaves and protect the citizens of Redwall Abbey. Gorath the Flame fights to revenge the death of his beloved grandparents, protect the citizens of Redwall, and ultimately watch the vermin die for their previous

As the high priest’s son he himself wanted to become a good priest but to become one he had to look at the place of gods with his own eyes.
Achilles, son of Thetis, also had divine blood flowing through his veins. He, however, was well aware of his mortality, as he chose a shortened lifespan full of glory over a longer, non-glorious life. "Alas, that you should be at once short of life and long of sorrow above your peers," exclaims his mother. (Butler, I). Despite accepting his mortality, Achilles, like Gilgamesh, was blessed with unequaled strength and skill as t...

In the era of my rule, a king was not someone who simply delivered orders to his “men” while he sat on his throne awaiting confirmation of a victory. Men admired their leader for: outstanding courage, selflessness to his tribe, personal valor, and ability to survive despite the toughest opposition. Heroism and leadership are characteristics that brought my fellow men to abide by my side despite the situation, which in response led me to become such an aspiring leader, and in the end a hero – the demonstration to attain glory through brawls. Traditions, natural laws, and religion are descriptions of my heroism and leadership.

From a very early age, I was listening to the Vedas. In it, gods such as Varuna, Vishnu, Yama, Rudra, Agni, Indra and Vashistha and others are eulogized. I listen to the stories of the gods and get lost in the dream of the kingdom of heaven. Among gods, I loved to listen to stories about Indra, to whom my father has eulogized a lot. Gods and rishis were his devotees. He was the king of gods- the lord of three worlds. No one is comparable to him on heroism, wealth, beauty, kindness, charity, and courage. His heroism and greatness overwhelmed me. By the time, I was seven, I knew enough about Indra and imagined him to be the most desirable male.
... of time,and,living once all in eternity, to find the perfect future in the present.” Basically saying the missing part of him, which was shown through Aminadab, was the key to see that he had everything he could possibly want. That is when he no longer fights with this inner struggle. What is even more tragic is that even with the passing of his wife, he is unable to learn from this expierence because his own wife basically says, dont feel guilty it is going to be ok. This totally disturbs the possiblility of learning from this horrible incident, because his wife eases the guilt.

Temujin, who later took the name Genghis Khan, came from humble beginnings which helped to form the foundations of the type of leader he became later in life. After his warlord father was killed by a rival tribe, Temujin and his family were exiled to the steppes and into poverty. Temujin’s “personal magnetism and courage and his inclination to rely on trusted friends rather than kinship allowed him to build up a small following and to ally with a more powerful tribal leader” (Strayer, 2009). From an early age, his charismatic form of leadership brought many warriors into his fold, including warriors from defeated enemies, where they were rewarded for their skill and loyalty as opposed to their bloodlines. The warriors were all accountable to one another “by the provision that should one or two members of a unit desert in battle, all were subject to the death penalty” (Strayer, 2009). This system of punishment and rewards helped hold the Empire armies together and contributed to its success.
...is wound was healing, his pain was dispersing; his Self had merged into unity" (111). He now understood that all things are in harmony, heading towards the same goal and he therefore knew he had no reason to mourn over his son.
