Stories of Him The Orc Boyz Saga – Chapter Ten

Описание: Chapter Ten of The Orc Boyz Saga.

Before the legends hardened, there was a man who carried water,
shared bread, and knew his soldiers’ names.
Before the orcs broke the line, there were stories—
quiet, human, and incomplete.

This chapter is told by someone who stood close enough to see
what the stories left out.
Not the monster across the field,
but the one who emerged beside him.

Some stories make men larger than life.
Others fail to capture what they became.

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Steel on my shoulder
Paper-thin hands
I signed the line in a quiet spring
Fields were green
Not red

They told stories of him in taverns
Quiet awe, half-drunk lies
Said he never broke, never bent
I laughed—said men don’t live twice

But he carried water for the limping
Gave his cloak to a boy in rain
He split his bread with the hungriest hands
Said, “No one bleeds alone in my name.”

He knew our names by the second night
Fixed straps, checked boots, stayed late
Showed me a ring with a nervous grin
Said kindness still counted as weight

[Pre-Chorus]
I thought legends were stitched from fear
And men were smaller than praise
I thought the stories made him larger
Than the gentle old man I obeyed

[Chorus]
I heard stories of them
How spears barely pierce their hide
How they crush a man’s skull with bare hands
And laugh while he dies
They know no fear, they don’t slow or bleed
Each one you kill makes the rest more alive
But I stand shaking beside him
And wish my fear was still outside

[Verse 2]
The orcs came running like moving stone
Green skin split with old white scars
My spear struck first—slid off the muscle
Like I’d stabbed a wall of bark

Men screamed once
Then disappeared
Helmets folded like paper cups
And every step they took toward us
Made my legs forget how to run

He shouted orders, steady still
“Hold the gate—stay close—stay here”
Like rules survived the end of days
Like walls still meant what they once did

[Chorus]
I heard stories of them
Blades bouncing, shields torn thin
Prayers dying in open mouths
Before they could get in
They don’t break, they don’t doubt, they don’t stop
They don’t beg, they don’t hide
But I stand shaking beside him
And something worse is at my side

[Verse 3]
They told stories of him on quiet nights
When the watch ran long and cold
Said he walked where lines gave way
Said he held ground others fled from
I said, “Stories grow that way.”

But he killed one—then another—then more
Not fast, not clean, not kind
Each body fell like it fed him
Like fear sharpened his mind

Mud on his face
Blood in his teeth
Eyes too wide to see me still there
He moved like the war had learned his name
And decided to live there

I screamed his name—he didn’t turn
Just laughed like something clicked
Like every story I’d ever heard
Was missing this part of it

[Bridge]
I hate the sound
Of bone in hand
The way he smiles
When a man won’t stand

The orcs scare me
They always did
But they don’t look at me like this

They kill to live
They kill to eat
He kills like it makes him complete

That ring is gone
I don’t know when
Lost in a throat full of broken men

So tell me—
Where is my captain now?
What happened to the man who knelt?
The one who carried the wounded in,
Who said mercy was strength itself?

Was he a lie we told ourselves
To make the waiting easier to bear?
Or was this monster waiting quiet
In the kindness I saw there?

[Chorus – Final]
I heard stories of him
Thought none were ever true
Thought fear needed distance
Thought legends always grew
Now the orcs fall back when he comes through
Even monsters clear his path
And I know the stories never did him justice—
They were gentler than the wrath

[Outro]
If we live
I won’t leave town
I won’t say his name with pride

Because the stories they’ll tell sound human
And I was there
I watched him divide

Captain was a man with a wedding ring
A voice that taught us how to stand
Now I don’t know if he was lost to war
Or if this was always the man
