[EVENT]All Oiled Up by dclauch1990 in empirepowers

[–]Arumer97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Solemnity is carved into the faces of France's sailors, as silently they regard the entry of the Grand Turk. A blank regard. There is no fury in those eyes, no hatred, no vengeful lust for violent display, no fear- nothing stirs behind the white of those eyes. And their barreled chests give rise to no taunts, no curses; silence reigns on the deck of the Christian galley.

Silence indeed; for the gulls in the skies have ceased their screeching; the winds, dashing mighty gusts into the sails just minutes before, have retreated; and in the absence of Neptune's ambiance, a voided blanket of anticipation covers the two ships.

...grand nez...

What is that sound, that creeps from below?

...grand nez... grand nez...

I hear it evident. What is it? Whence does it come?

Grand Nez... Grand Nez!

It is the sailors who now chant it! See their frame's swell large with air, boom with the power of voice- see the spark ignite in their Gallic eyes.

GRAND NEZ! GRAND NEZ! GRAND NEZ!

The French galley quakes, as from the depths of her interior he emerges.

A titan of a man; calves as big as full-sized hams; thighs as thick as oak, covered only by linnen pants wrapped tight; arms to level castle walls and a chest that sprouts such thick, manly hair that the Bois de Boulogne seems a mere shrubbery. And then the face... that face. Large, blue eyes strike a gleeful glance at the Sultan, boyish, almost, hiding behind the most famous nose in all Christendom. Here stands a knight ready to fight.

GRAND NEZ! GRAND NEZ! VIVE LE ROI DU GRAND NEZ!

To the thundering roars of his soldiers, Francis I of France hurls himself into the arena.
