Menev's Leave

[DiamondHead 42]

 

Menev would rest his Janissary uniform on the meeting table in front of Ibraheem and Caliph Abdullah. “I’m leaving,” he would state.

 

Both Ibraheem and Abdullah would stare at the uniform, then look back to Menev. “I expected this day,” Ibraheem would say. “What makes you want to leave, rafiqi?”

 

Menev would stare at his uniform as well. “As time passes, I look upon the terracotta that I used to build our houses, our walls, even the palace we reside in, and I feel both pride and unbalance. As time passes, I see young men become elite soldiers within our ranks, watch them follow commands that they would never understand, and feel uneasy. As time passes, I realize that what I am doing… it just is not me.” He takes a deep breath before speaking again. “As time passes… I look to the world beyond our walls and I wonder what it would be like to live out there again. I’m no Farfolk, Ibraheem. I’m Adunian. And I believe it is time for me to find my own path.”

 

Abdullah would rise from his seat and walk slowly towards Menev. He would stop in front of the Adunian, and look up at him. “If that is what you want, rafiqi… then we will not stop you.”

 

Menev would let out a deep sigh of relief. “Thank you, Abdullah.”

 

Two days later, Menev would put his final bag onto a horse-led cart. Abdullah, Ibraheem, and others of the Kadarsi Caliphate would look at him climb onto it and take the reins. He would depart, but not before weeping one last thank you to the citizens of the nation he helped build.

 

“Thank you, everyone. For everything.”

 

((Thank you everyone from the Kadarsi for the great times. Adam, Ibraheem, Boomboxdoom, and Mango (if he’s even reading this) are some of the first names that come to mind, but there are many more who I would like to thank. Maybe I’ll see all of you down the line at some point, who knows. But for now, it’s time for me to try out some other RP, so I’m taking my leave. Everything that I don’t want I’m leaving in my house for the Kadarsi treasury to pick up. See you all later.))

Ibraheem watched as his brother in arms left, his eyes watered, They fought countless battles together, he held his wife close in his one arm and his children in his other as he watched Menev ride his cart away “I will miss you Akhi, you will always find help in my household...”  he reached his arm over his face to wipe a tear away

((Im gana miss you man, we did everything together, remember you always got ride and die habibis here, now and forever bud))

*abdullah would stand there watching as his old Comrade and friend left. “A true warrior and Hero has left us today. His name shall always be remembered” he’d shed a single tear

((You been there since day one and I’ll never forget everything you done. You one of my best pals my guy. Good luck))
