The Mirror (by ben:))

There he was.Martin had been walking on the sands of the desert for eight days.Indeed, he was not sure whether it’s eight days or eight centuries.The only scene he could see was the blue sky with the dunes under it.
While walking, he noticed a movement on the ground.Incredibly, something was emerging from the sands.It was a man who is armoured and armed with a long bright sword.Also his armour was such bright that martin could see his own image on it like a mirror.Moreover, the man had a ruby on the left side of his chest.Suddenly, crying out violently he attacked Martin.He tried to defend himself with his short sword.They fought throughout eight days.Four days on the surface and four days underground.
The man’s name was Nitram.Somehow his face was same with Martin’s except some details.Martin had green eyes, however, the man’s eyes were deep black.Furthermore, Nitram had a scar on his left cheek.
In the first four days the light of the sun prevented him from dealing a mortal blow to Martin.Hence, Nitram got wounded at his right eye.But in the second four days, Martin was able to see his enemy only in the light of the clashes of the swords.Therefore he got injured at his left cheek At the end of the eighth day the strange man vanished as sudden as he had appeared.
Martin came face to face with the silence of the desert again.Since he knew he had fought against his own arrogance hidden behind the image of the armoured man, he had not any unanswered question in his mind and kept on walking towards the unknown.
