"It seems... I have been utterly defeated." Uranus fell onto his knees, his sword made of energy dispersing into the air.
Dorhal remained silent as gasps and shocked reactions rippled through the cove of trolls.
"Willpower is not so subjective as many think. It is not created by simply desiring it. No... it is something deeper. It is intrinsic and built by real events through life. One is born with a set willpower, and through experiences that lead one to extreme situations, neural pathways are forcefully unlocked to develop a greater sense of hope for the purpose of self-preservation. You, Dorhal, have been born with a boon far stronger than my own. And it is not your indomitability... but your mind itself." Uranus's words sounded wise, yet defeated at the same time.
He placed both hands on the floor, bowing and placing his forehead flat onto the ground.
