Sent: (This contains singular 'they'. Culturally appropriate, and my source didn't specify the commander's gender either.) The story of the ambitious army commander Once upon a time there was a commander who lived near the spring of a river north of here. One day the commander happened to try strong drugs. The great power intoxicated them and gave them an idea. Being ambitious already, the power made them wish to be famous, unique and powerful. By that thought this commander wanted to conquer a great deal, many regions, in order to rule over them. And see! it happened that they could achieve it! Because the drugs gave them bravery and the knowledge to fight a battle, and they attacked, hit and beat the enemy. |
