Ralph's yellow aura flared with each strike, illuminating the battlefield with its radiant glow. The clash of sword against claw, the roar of the lion, and the determined breaths of the young warrior filled the air, creating a cacophony of sound that resonated across the mountains.
In the midst of their battle, as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting the world in shades of crimson and gold, Ralph's determination wavered not. With a final, decisive blow, he struck the lion, the sword finding its mark. The beast let out a thunderous roar that echoed through the valleys, a sound that was simultaneously a lament and a testament to its opponent's strength.
The Blue Cored Mountain Lion collapsed, its body crumpling onto the rocky ground, defeated yet dignified. Ralph, panting heavily, stood over his fallen foe, his yellow aura fading gradually as the battle came to an end.
The mountain, witness to their epic clash, seemed to sigh in relief, the echoes of their struggle fading into the evening breeze.
With the lion defeated and the night descending upon the mountain, Ralph felt a profound sense of accomplishment. The sword, now stained with the blood of his adversary, gleamed in the fading light, a symbol of his triumph over fear and adversity.

The sword at his side, seemed to hum with approval, recognizing his indomitable spirit.
Ralph did not know that the moment he went far enough, the figure of the beggar that had disappeared reappeared again, bursting into laughter so deep that he rolled on the ground.
The Beggar waved his hand and the corpse of the Blue mountain lion in the distance disappeared, turning into a wooden doll.
The Beggar, after having his fill of laughter, stood to his feet, "truly, human beings will believe not the truth but what they want to believe, or rather, what I can make them believe!"
