can you hear that heartbeat?!

"Hush," he said.

"Listen. Listen carefully to what's happening around you," as he cups his hand around his ear.

"Can you hear that heartbeat? It doesn't go "lup dup lup dup". Can you hear it? EBEN! EBEN!", raising his hands as though to call forth a flurry of lightning.

"These brave knights; their hearts beat as one. Their veins flow not with blood, but with energy that makes them one!"

He walked closer to the enemy and held him closer by his neck, "Deny us of what we are and you deny us of our existence. When all that we have... is nothing, what do we have to lose, my friend?"

"An Eben is a true Eben when he choses to be, not by what is bestowed upon him. When you choose to act as though you own his life... beware of the thunderstorms," as he pushes that wretched pile back into his delusional state.
