A quiet night,
a windy night,
a night...

for battle

I stalk the corners,
scan the windows,
watching...

for battle

My keeper sleeps,
safe in his dreams,
confident...

he will survive the night

A sound...

Zounds!
A foe in the dark!
He attacks!

Dodge! Jump! Roll!

We tumble and grapple,
my master wakes!

A light stuns my foe,
I deal the killing blow,
he stood no chance...

This string shall hurt my master no more!
