A story told

Description

A story told from Count of Monte Cristo www.youtube.com/watch?v=SicOw6…


We are friends, are we not?

And our interests are the same

We collaborate

And trust in fate

Parcel out the blame

There are ends we’ve all got that can justify the means

We negotiate

Then fabricate the facts behind the scenes

Keeping all the details vague and secrets hidden

Safe from the balanced sheet of those you trust*

Because history is a story told by the winners of the fight

You imply a little

Lie a little

Testifying

Try a little

Sailor

Who’s gonna question what goes on in the middle of the night?

Not a tinker

Not a tailor

Not his father or Mercedes

Or a jailer

So we all are agreed

Let’s be vigilant and wise

We must all pretend our naïve friend was caught in his own lies

For our plan to succeed

We must share but one belief

Edmond Dantes stays and ends his days inside the Chateau d’If

Where the softest things he’ll touch are stones and darkness

Deep in a craggy isle and dungeon’s keep

Because history’s a story told by the men who make the laws

We supply a little lie

To help the gullible to buy a little fable

What will become of the righteous men who fashioned Dantes’ flaws?

The rich

And well respected

Are no more to be rejected at our table

I’ll be a comfort in her time of grief and anguish

I’ll be Mercedes’ ever faithful acolyte

Every night

And part of me wishes Dantes didn’t have to languish

But I can see it’s him or me

Let him sit there and rot until he’s forgot

Let him rot!

History’s a story told by the people who survive

Let me sign and then initial

It’s the truth if it’s officially the story

What if the cost is one young man so three more men can survive?

He’s a price we have to pay

So live and fight another day for love and glory

He was standing in the way

A threat to justice in Marseille

So goes the story!

Stick to the story!

Here ends the story!




You guys don't know how tempted i am to actually animate this!!! :XD: But i really do not have the time...


--------------------------------------------------------

Done! xD Fewf! It took my hours to do! (don't know how long since it was broken up between several hours today and yesterday). We have Darius and Vasilis both characters of mine from :iconhybrid-kingdoms:

Who are these characters?


Vasilis
Lion and Chinese dragon hybrid, he actually looks older here than he really is...xDD Whatever!
Vasilis is a royal from the Ibrida Regnum, incredibly prideful and arrogant this hybrid is hate by almost EVERYONE who is not attempting to be his allies. Manipulative and charismatic you would almost mistaken him for an evil leader...except you got the wrong guy here...xDD Vasilis would have made a good evil guy, since he can make a good leader. But he's got all the leading positions he wants. HECK he can boss a king around and not worry about anything because royal hybrid is higher rank than a king! :evillaugh: So he's pretty much the schoolyard jerk everyone hates or tries to be on the good side of, he'll actually die pretty quickly in the story and make place for the REAL annoying royal hybrids who will be the oppositions to the rebels. 
yesididcreatethischaracterbasedoffthissong :XD:


Darius

Now here is your evil leader! :la: Well...that depends who's side you'd prefer to view him from. I'll be mostly narrating his side so to me he's doing his job! :meow:

Darius is the rebel's leader, unlike most Hybrids Darius is an outlaw not because he caused a crime like killing someone or simply being rebellious like most half-bloods in training.... He is on the run because he refused to become a royal of the Ibrida Regnum after he discovered they were hiding something from the kingdoms. He could of used that knowledge to take power when he was chosen during the night of the full moon but Darius simply preferred to accuse to royals in front of the assembly of their supporters and is now on the run because if he was caught he'd probably be sentenced to death for openly standing up against the Hybrid royals. VERY manipulative and charismatic he can be viewed as both good and bad depending on who's side you take. He will do anything for his cause!

He is based off Kelsier from Mistborn, except he won't kill himself to start a religion that view him as their god. :XD: (he may kill himself for his cause though...i don't know yet. What i do know even if he is the rebel's leader his death would not affect the rebelion, instead of ending it that would cause it to enlargen)

Darius is seen speaking with creatures, mostly non-hybrids, of any rank and kingdom. He is gathering as many allie for his cause, though his main cause is still unknown to everyone he will help out in vengances and anything to help others overthrow the royal hybrids. 



------------------------------------------------


In this case the opposition between Vasilis and Darius is quite minor. Vasilis is quite a high ranked royal so Darius wants to overthrow him sooner than the others, he searches for other creatures who hate the lion-dragon hybrid (which there are many) and offers to aid them in overthrowing the royal, not killing him though, sending him into discrase so he would be out of the way.



NOTE: 

I need two other creatures who hate Vasilis hybrid-kingdoms.deviantart.com… and who'd be singing this song along with Darius and making pacts with the rebel leader, non-hybrids male characters prefered. Can already have been created if you think your char suits the role. :meow:


Creature 1: I'd rather it be some high ranked creature from any of the kingdoms except for the Catus Regnum: King or Lord...maybe a Keeper of the king or a lord.
Creature 2: Contrairy to creature 1 i'd rather this be a lower ranked creature, to show that Darius is able to bring together characters from all ranks and kingdoms to work together for a same cause: Merchant, Smith, Shaman or Peasant.

Such a cool drawing *-*
I really like Darius' pose!

Hmm, maybe Ashkalar could be one of the creatures hating him?
She despises the ones that don't respect her and are even higher ranked than her.
she's not male, tho...
