only one thing matters—survival prompts

7 months ago

POV first-person perspective, I stand firm, my sword gripped tightly in my hand, its blade catching the dim light as I face four attacking soldiers. The weapon is clearly visible in the frame, held with precision, its sharp edge raised for battle. My stance is aggressive, ready to strike. I wear the royal warrior attire of Nader Shah Afshar—a richly embroidered crimson silk robe, adorned with intricate Persian gold-threaded motifs. Beneath it, a dark wool tunic clings to my body, slightly creased from rest, and a thick black sash wraps tightly around my waist. An ornate belt hangs from my side, with a dagger tucked in, ready if needed. Before me, four soldiers lunge forward, their weapons drawn—two wielding swords, two gripping daggers. Their black robes flow with their movements, their attacks swift and ruthless. Our blades clash, sparks flying as steel meets steel. The flickering firelight behind them casts long, distorted shadows across the tent walls, adding to the chaos of battle. The air is thick with tension, the scent of oil, dust, and sweat mingling as the fight intensifies. I strike, they counter. They advance, I stand my ground. The clash of weapons fills the night, and in this moment, only one thing matters—survival.
