The model I think is fairly self explanatory.I never knew your name. But I will remember you. Forever. You will live eternal, because I am.<img src="https://image.civitai.com/xG1nkqKTMzGDvpLrqFT7WA/d9718390-4a33-4028-862f-ec57fea29f7f/original=true/d9718390-4a33-4028-862f-ec57fea29f7f.jpeg" />I shaved my head and took the crest. I carved my shame where all could see. I swore I'd find a worthy death. And by my honor, back with me.I walked where better dwarfs had fallen. I sought the beast, the blade, the flame. But every time the blood stopped flowing, I stood alive and still in shame.Dragons burned and giants thundered. Demons crawled from chaos womb. I buried my axe inside them all and none could give me what I'm due.How many foes must meet my axe? How many mountains must I climb? How many times must Malebolgia be denied his final fight?Take me, damn you. I have paid in blood. I stood before your monsters and drowned them in the mud. Take me, Grimnir, or tell me what remains. You take the ones beside me and leave me with their names. I asked you for an ending. You gave me years instead. Stop taking those I love and take me in their stead. And take me in their stead.I've watched the beardlings turn to longbeards. I've watched the young grow bent in gray. I've watched the halls I once remembered become the tombs of yesterday.There were voices at the fire. Once there was ale and there was song. There were hands upon my shoulders that I thought would travel on.Now every road grows bloody quiet. Every feast has empty chairs. I remember every damned one. Does anyone remember theirs?They call me mighty, call me deathless, speak my name with bloody awe. But legends don't get asked at midnight: What's surviving all this cost?Take me, damn you. I have paid in blood. I stood before your monsters and drowned them in the mud. Take me, Grimnir, or tell me what remains. You take the ones beside me and leave me with their names. I asked you for an ending. You gave me years instead. Stop taking those I love and take me instead.And there was one who followed longest. Though I told the fool to go, a man with ink upon his fingers, and a sword he learned to know.He said he'd write the slayer's ending. Every battle, every scar. He thought he'd chronicle my doom. The fool never guessed we'd come this far.I called him manling, called him useless, cursed his whining every mile. But when the dark closed all around us, I knew his footstep at my side.He wrote of monsters, kings, and battles, of every bloody thing we slew. But [Deleted], did you ever write what the road did to us, too?I remember your voice, man. That's the worst of it. I remember when you were young. I remember when I was angry that you couldn't keep pace.I remember you laughing when you should have been afraid. I remember thinking there would always be another road, another fight, another tavern, another argument, another dawn. I was wrong.The world itself was torn. A fire swallowed earth and sky. Gods and kings were swept to nothing. Still the slayer did not die.I fought until the stars were strangers. I fought beyond the world's last breath. I walked through hell to find my ending. And even hell refused my death.So tell me ancestors, what debt could ever warrant such a price? Was my dishonor truly worth outliving everyone twice? I don't remember why I failed you not enough to justify why every soul I ever cared for got the death you still deny.Take me, damn you. Have I not done enough? I've broken gods and monsters. I've spilled an ocean's blood. Answer me, Grimnir. What more would you have slain? There is no world behind me. There are only bloody names.I asked you for an ending. You made me live instead. You took my kin. You took my home. You took my only friend. <h3 id="so-send-your-greatest-monster.-send-the-darkness.-send-the-end.-but-stop-taking-those-beside-me.">So send your greatest monster. Send the darkness. Send the end. But stop taking those beside me.</h3>Take me. Take me. Take me instead.Take me. You promised to write my death. Take me. Typical manling. Take me. Couldn't even get that right.
