Blood Charged Quotes

“The castle had survived nearly a millennium and was considered a Super Important Historical Landmark, meaning about seven hundred people on a dysfunctional committee had to approve architectural additions and changes. It had taken twenty years for them to decide to fix the holes in that tower after the last castle bombing.”

“The tiger knew there were poachers in the forest; men that were dangerous because of their rifles. They shot the elephants, but the tiger didn’t do anything because elephants slumber around and rarely bother speaking with tigers.

And then, the poachers shot the wolves. Maybe the tiger could have done something, but he really didn’t care about the wolves. They were competition on the hunt.

When the poachers returned, they shot the buffalo. Again, the tiger did nothing because it was a beautiful sunny day and he didn’t want to leave his warm ledge on the rocks.

Then one day, the tiger returned home to find that his mate had been shot by the poachers. He was infuriated and tried to round up the forest creatures to help him rid the world of the poachers. But by now, there was nobody except him left to fight. He knew he couldn’t take the poachers by himself so he slunk away never to be heard from again.”
