Rane had only been deployed for a few months.  Most others in camp wouldn’t have called him a man, if they knew his true age. Thankfully, the recruiters had been desperate enough to make their numbers, that they didn’t seem to ask for much verification.  Training had been his life, and when he wasn’t being torn apart by sergeants drilling, he had the task of squiring.  He mucked horses for the knights, shined their armor, did all manner of unflattering chores.  It wasn’t the glamorous life of a soldier that he imagined.  Still, he was a soldier and when it came time to relax and have a good time, he was welcomed around the fire and offered a drink with the rest.  

One night, when the men had gathered around the fire for their nightly spinning of tales taller than the former, Rane sat on a stump with a pair of greaves that he was to ‘shine bright enough that you couldn’t find a shadow for a mile’.  While he had rarely engaged the fighting men directly, he loved nothing more than to be around, to feel a part of them.  One of the archers, named Derien, issued a challenge.

“I’ve got a weeks wages to whoever can beat me in an arm wrestling match.”  He hoisted a purse overhead and jingled the coins.  The footmen guffawed in unison, some laughing hard enough that they coughed and wheezed.  Derien looked all the more confident.  More than a dozen barked back, accepting the challenge.  One of the sergeants stood up.  Rane had seen him a few times before.  He was the largest man Rane had ever seen.  What his real name was, he never knew, but eveyone called him ‘Mammoth’.  At nearly seven feet tall and with shoulders as broad as a sword was long, he was terrifying to see wrapped in armor.  Now, with his shaved head and thick, patchy stubble, he strode forward with the look of a man certain he was about to win some money.

Derien scarcely reached the man’s sternum and craned his head back as the sergeant approached.  A couple of men ran into the light carrying a table to set between the two combatants.  They sat down, placed their elbows on the table and wrapped their fingers around each other’s hand.  Derien cocked his head with this self-assured grin on his face.

“Last chance to back out.  I’d hate to see a sergeant’s purse in the hands of a simple archer.”Mammoth snorted and squeezed Derien’s hand to the point of pain that crossed over his features, but he recovered just as quickly.

“Saved it for the match!  Ready when you are.”The sergeant nodded his head.  Someone from the gathered started it off.

“Ready.  Aaand.  Go!”

Derien lunged across the table and kissed Mammoth so hard that the soldier lurched backwards all while the archery slammed that massive hand down onto the table.

The men roared with laughter so loud that it turned heads from several camps away.  Derien ducked beneath the first of Mammoth’s furious swings and backed away from the second before leaving his seat to run into the darkness.

“I’ll collect my winnings tomorrow, sergeant!”

Rane laughed himself silly that night and fondly recalls that as the hardest time he ever laughed.

The bells of Hearthglen's townhall tolled at noon, chiming a dozen times.  And then one more lone, deeper peal.

Villagers and visitors alike crammed into the city square.  Children ran around playing and laughing, otherwise there was a reverent silence aside from a cool wind blowing from the north.

The Day of Remembrance had come once again, without the usual fanfare.  Everyone had assembled beneath the streamers and banners, arching around the fountain that sent a few droplets into the wind and onto a few of the gathered.

A portly man with some semblance of fashion hoisted himself, with the assistance of two others, onto the ledge of the fountain.

"Thank you for coming.  The Day of Remembrance has long been a part of our town.  We remember the soldiers that fight in our wars, the brave men and women that sacrifice their safety and even lives in the interest of helping others.  There have been too many in our illustrious history to recount all of the names."

He looked down at his lapel and the daffodil that had been pinned onto it.  Then he gazed at the crowd and the sea of golden flowers pinned onto them as well.

"But today, we do remember one of those names.  Some of you knew him as a child, others from stories around town.  Soon, everyone will know of his legend.  Let his name be synonymous with valor, courage, ingenuity.  Rane Lusarien Geirhart.  A son of Hearthglen, and a hero of Azeroth.  May his soul rest at ease."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Atop a hill not a mile from the gates of Hearthglen, Anica and Fierlin stood close together with cloaks bundled and hands held.  They talked in hushed voices amongst themselves, laughing quietly on occasion.

No tears were shed.  Not that day, not in front of him.  Fierlin bent forward and laid a feather in the loose dirt.  Anica followed after and laid a children's book next to it.  Each sister ran their fingers over the letters carved into the stone.
