"Avery, we cannot afford to lose you. If one must die, then I will do it. You are but a lad still. Your father would never forgive me if I returned without you. I have certainly come to love you just as a son I never had. You are a brave and honorable young man," Said Toru looking over the barren land from the cliff from where the four men were standing.
"Why must you? No, it is I who must and only I. If another bleeds in place of me, then we shall never be free," Avery answered stepping close to the cliff's edge.
"Don't do it please," Cried Toru with tears in his eyes, attempting to hold the Prince back from jumping. Halu and Boru also weeping, clung to Avery's feet, seeking to withhold him.
"I will jump," Halu cried looking up into Avery's eyes.
"No. I shall," Wept Boru.
"None of you shall, for this is my choice to make. And it is already made," Said Avery turning to his beloved leader, Toru. "Toru, tell my father and mother that I love them. Please do not allow them to be dismayed, for in doing this, I am doing it for the sake of our people. Do not omit my feelings for Princess Sasha. If you get the chance as I pray you do, tell her that in extinguishing my life, that I lay it down above all, for her safety. I love her and will even in death. Thank you for guiding me and helping me grow as a man and knight for my homeland. Also, Boru and Halu, I thank you both for supporting me and protecting me with your lives. Now, I can finally attempt to make up for it in exiting both worlds from which I had breath." After these words, Avery raised his sword high so that the light from the non-existent sun could gleam off of it. "For my beloved Sasha and the Kingdom of Cravon, I part!" He cried forcing his sword into the ground. Taking one last look at his three friends after getting back so that they could not withhold him from his duty; He jumped from the cliff, the tears in his eyes deserting him in the wind.
A blinding light appeared, flashing over the wailing men. It is the portal back to Cravon. The portal which obeyed the sacrifice of the young Prince Avery.
"How can I leave, knowing that we did not bury him and give him a proper parting for this great deed?" Boru cried, astonished at the brightness of the portal.
"We will adorn the land of Cravon and all other lands with his great sacrifice. All shall remember and respect him once we vanquish the head of Azackton from his miserable shoulders," Toru answered in grief. "For this, Azackton will pay an even greater price for the death of the innocent boy." Drawing his sword and shouting with his uttermost strength so that the mountain tops shuddered at the sound, the mighty Toru in bitter hatred and indignation, ran through the portal back to the kingdom of Cravon.
