General Schnatz stood at the head of his army. He stroked his moustache before standing on a small pedestal. His silver plate armour shone brightly in the morning sun. Behind him, the knights stood in a neat array of orderly ranks, their weapons and armour gleaming.
"Today, we march on the vampire city of Adelvania," General Schnatz declared, his voice firm and confident. "We will breach the great black wall surrounding the city and battle with the creatures within. But do not fear, my friends, for we are righteous and fight for a noble cause. We fight to rid the world of these foul beasts, to bring light to the darkness and hope to the despairing."
The knights nodded; their faces were resolute as they prepared for battle. General Schnatz unsheathed his sword, its blade glowing with holy light. He raised it above his head and cried out in a loud battle cry.
"For the honour of the kingdom!" he shouted. "For the honour of humanity! Forward, march!"
