Ara the Handsome
Foreword
In ancient times, when darkness was impenetrable and the sunlight was much brighter and the earth was more fertile, there lived an Armenian. He lived and created to be closer to the gods.
But the day came when the gods fell silent. Fate shuddered and time had stood still.
.....

The feast
A certain Man sat on the throne of the Armenian Kingdom, and his name alone terrified his enemies. The might, power and beauty of the King was the envy of the Great Gods. He was a true son of Armenia, and his name was Ara the Handsome.
From his victorious crusades froze in fear, even the formidable Assyria.
The powerful Queen of Assyria, Queen Semiramis, was infatuated with the Armenian King Ara the Handsome… She was the tigress who coveted the tiger. She longed and found him - the King of the Armenians. With great honors, with her retinue, she received him in her royal chambers.
Ara the Handsome and the country of Armenians - all that the insatiable Shamiram dreamed of.
And always victorious on the battlefield, the king lost for the first time to himself, succumbing to the charms of the intoxicating love of the beautiful queen...
A momentary weakness that should pass. Ara awoke. Rejecting Shamiram from himself, he stood up to his full height...

The Great War
The eyes of Shamiram flashed with hellish flames; it was the flame of the Great War...
With the last hope she prayed to Ara, so that he would be with her. She promised power over the kings of the Earth, she seduced by the Universal Power. And Ara said to her: "A snake of the desert is your name! What do I need the Universe without my country! Without the Sun and the Glory of my Fatherland?!".
And Ara passed away. Maddened by his beloved's death, the fearsome Shamiram was petrified with pain, remaining War in the memory of ages.
Ara was forever affined with Mother Earth, with the Eternal Homeland in his heart.
So that the Country of Nairi could stand forever!

Final
There is Ara in all of us, who rose to fight!
In the name of honest Victory!
