The defending general, oblivious to the pain, continued to fight desperately, relentlessly wielding his sword in battle.
The enemy general frowned, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes, and drew his bow again.
The arrow struck him squarely in the throat; with that blow, the defending general's eyes turned even redder, and he was no longer able to fight.
Even so, the defending general did not fall; he stood firm, sword in hand, his body unyielding.
