As Blade said those words, It was like a movie playing in Taggles head. His eyes rolled back, and he began to remember....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A cold day on the northern shore. "It's finally completed son!" Glenner exclaimed, lifting his small son Taggle into the air. After 2 long seasons of work, it was finally comlpleted. A magnficent holt, and a feast had been set up outside to celebrate its occasion. As everybeast set down and began to eat, Taggle began to look around out to sea. It was some minutes before Taggle saw it. A corsiar ship, red as blood, sailing towards the holt. Taggle pulled on his fathers tunic. "papa, look!" He said, pointing out at sea. His father saw the ship approaching fast and acted. " Warriors, get yer weapons, take the young and old to saftey!" Everyone acted fast. Taggle struggled to keep pace with his mother, asking. " why's we gotsa weave?" He asked. "hush Taggle, and keep up." She said gently. Then the raid was upon them, and everything passed by in a series of flashes. Taggles father, leading a last charge against the vermin, His mother, peirced through the heart by a vermin arrow, her dead eyes staring at Taggle. The vermin coming, and beating Taggle, knocking him out. Then a season of slavery, with little food and harsh maltreatment. Then finally being tied to the mast, set afire by lightning, and the mast fel into the sea, dragging Taggle with it to be left at the mercy of the wind and waves.....

Taggle shuddered for a couple moments, then his eyes went back into teir normal position, and Taggle was normal again. A tear slid itself slowly down his cheek...
