A Good Day to Die

Description

The fires burn upon the braziers in the dark cave beneath Qon’oS, their flickering flames dancing off of the Bat’leth’s of the two warriors who stand facing one another, eyes locked in fierce intent. They circle the arena, growling between their teeth. Today is a good day to die.

Criteria

  • In 1,500 words of less, write a short battle scene between the two Klingon warriors.
  • The Klingon warriors may wield any weapon of your choosing, though they must be melee weapons.
  • Scenes will be judged based on creativity and engaging writing style, and not on the technical aspects of the conflict.
  • All submissions should be submitted through the Enter Competition form.
