Markuth stood there, gripping his sword's hilt until his knuckles turned white. He stood there, barely able to hold back his tears. He stood there, looking at his brother for the last time.
Harust reached out and grasped his shoulder. A mixture of comfort and sickening shot through Markuth. Looking at him, Harust opened his mouth to say something. He paused for a moment, lost of words. Then, "Little brother, be strong. I will always be with you when you need me."
"Please Harust, come with us! You will die if you stay," Markuth pleaded.
Harust glanced over to the rest of the group who were waiting patiently. Then he told his brother softly, "This will not end easy. Zamorak's forces have already taken Canifis, and the rumor is that they have taken two other Saradomin strongholds. If Valis were to die, that may put this war in Zamorak's favor."
"Then come with us; protect him." A single tear slipped through his guard and fell down his face.
"I can not. If I fight hard enough; if I fight strong enough; I may be able to delay them. Even though it may cost me my life, if I can delay them long enough, you may survive. Please understand, Markuth." He took a step back and looked his brother in the eyes. "May Saradomin guide your blade, brother. Farewell." He turned and began walking back towards the tower.
Markuth watched him go. He tried to memorize every aspect of his brother; from his shoulder-length blonde hair, to his steel chainmail, to his great battleaxe that he kept slung across his back. He focused his entire world on these things, desperately trying to preserve them. "I love you... Brother," he whispered. Harust seemed to hesitate, as though he had heard him.
He turned back around to face Markuth, and with a bright smile, said, "Markuth, never let me fade from your heart." He spun back around and left. Emptying his heart, Markuth rejoined Valis and the others. He followed them into the trees, and left his life behind.

Sadly I have to part soon, so I was not able to find pleasure in reading all of the fine stories I believe are posted in this Tavern. I will however, come back and read them later in the day and try and give a comment to each.
May your words be the sharpest of blades,

Dorothy stood in the great city of Varrock. She stood in the square, looking up at the massive castle. Unfortuately, it was raining. Dorothy didnt care if she got a cold. It would only consult to her having a bad nose and feeling sick all the time. But she was too busy looking up at the castle to care if she got ill.
Then she died....and went to heaven.....

Guthix Sigil:
Lovely story, man! Thanks for sharing. =]
I am titling your story 'Farewell' on the Index - if you have an actaul title please supply it.
Bunnydiver:
Funny stuff. Pointless, but funny, lol.
I am titling your story 'True Depth of Thought' (The irony, lol) on the Index - if you have an actual title please supply it.
Rao Bear:
Very nice, also funny. I enjoy your short stories - because they're all unpredictable. I write to be 'unpredictable' myself most of the time, and so your writing is my style. =]
Also, no worries about posting your stories other places - this place is to share stories, but so is the forums. So other threads are fine. ^^
Edit: Remember, if anybody wants a review of their story - just ask.

I'm going to go ahead and say that this is really quite an impressive thread.
Selfless, really, and with the focus being on younger or newer writers this is a success story waiting to happen. I gotta say that we haven't spoken much before, Logan, but we really should at some point. I think this is a great thing you have going and support it 100%. ^_^

;) I rarely get on myself. It's great to see a new face, though.
And, yeah...I wish I had time to throw down some short stories. I used to write them all the time, but then senior year started and life and all, so I've mainly been focusing on my story-writing guide. I'm guessing that you came upon this forum through the latest contest?

It's great to be a new face...except that sounds weird. O.o
I see. Story writing guide? Sounds interesting.
Yeah I saw the whole 'lifetime membership' thing and I was like "Ooh, suddenly I feel like writing stories", lol.
