Funny thing about legends. Generally, they're more powerful than facts. Facts are specific, reliable, unquestionable. All the best decisions are fact-based. Facts save lives. They topple empires. They run the world, one precise tidbit at a time.But there's no romance in a fact. No quiet hum of nostalgia. Legends live in hearts, and not in heads. And when the sky goes dark, and the mind stops working, it's the legend that comes roaring up, white-fanged and open-jawed, to meet the imagination.
Men win wars.
Legends inspire them to do so.
And some legends...some are still living...
