You have no idea what he's talking about of course, so you ask him
what the heck he is talking about once more.
Then he takes a sword out of his cloak, he gives it to you and shows
you a place where a crystal shaped object should fit.
He grabs the crystal and places it the hole, the sword flashes a
brilliant green. It suddenly all comes back to you, the battle, your
father, your best friend who's standing right in front of you, your
life.
You remember with great detail how the first charge failed miserably.
How your father fell, cut down by the enemy. You can't seem to
remember however who they were or why you were fighting them.
