THE LEGEND OF THE ARDENT HEART

Some of the people that lived on the Earth in the old days

were cheerful, strong

and brave people.

One day hard times came:

From somewhere else strange tribes came

and drove the older into the depths of the forest.

They needed to leave the forest,

and for that there were two roads:

One - forward, -

where there were swamps and darkness,

the other - back, -

where there were these strong and evil enemies.

Horror caused the women to

cry over the dead bodies

and over the fate of those chained by fear:

The living.

People all sat and thought

under the muffled murmur of the forest.

But the people got weakened from all these thoughts...

They were still strong people,

and they could go into a death-battle

with those who once defeated them,

but fear was born among them,

It bound their strong hands.

And cowardly words

could now be heard in the forest.

At first timid and quiet,

but then all the time growing louder and louder.

Already they wanted to go to the enemy

and give up their free will as a gift.

Yet no one who is scared of death

is not equaly afraid of a life in slavery.

But then...

... Danko appeared.

He said to them:

"Let's go into the forest and go through.

After all, it has an end. Come on!

Well! Hey! "
