"An unseen enemy is always the most fearsome."
MEMES // always accepting tbh
“Stealth is hardly the sole manner to strike fear on enemy’s hearts.” Oh, was an enemy you could not see more fearsome than that who marched to you in broad daylight, for it was confident it needed not the advantage of surprise? Was an unseen blade truly more frightening than seeing the blade one held towards you and imagining the bite of sharpened edge you gazed upon? True enough, an unseen enemy had the advantage of surprise, of restlessness caused by the not knowing; yet the knowing, too, could be fearsome thing, when wielded not to give an enemy information but just enough to cause in apprehension.
“If an unseen enemy can strike fear due to the disquiet they cause, so can one who all but marches towards an enemy make them frightened in giving them the certainty they cannot win against what comes their way.” And on her part, Kelantir had never been one to dwell in shadows.
