<-- Galahad sits in the back of an auditorium, a large smile on his face. He listens to the children sing at their fall musical, and claps when the song ends. Afterwards, he walks out the back unnoticed. He smiles to the cameraman as he walks along the street -->
Isn't it beautiful? Children gathered with no other point than just to sing and entertain. You see, everything is so much better when there's a selfless reason behind it. The more I think about it, that may have affected me last card.
For a brief second, for an instant before the match, I got caught up in the hype. I started thinking that I wanted the title. I started desiring winning the belt, being a champion... I know, you're thinking what's wrong with that? The thing that's wrong is, I put that first.
I'm not here to be a champion. I'm not here to win titles, win matches, or do anything like that. I'm here for three reasons:
1) to put on a great show
2) to hopefully inspire those watching me
the third... well, I shouldn't talk about it. Someone needs my help, but I don't know who they are or what they need. You ever have those, those callings? Where you know you have to be somewhere but you don't really know why? I'm having that right now, so know that I won't be going anywhere until this is done.
But enough about me, I mean, am I really that interesting? I have a match with two great men, men who I watched in previous matches, and men who know of honor, of entertainment, and of being able to do the right thing. It will be an honor to be in a match against you both, sirs Scythe and Schiappa. I hope the best man wins and that we can all shake hands at the end.
Have a blessed night, everyone.
