The Message - An again

The armed monks weren’t prepared, new orders they need
Fight back to the monastery, stay or proceed
One decided to take news back
The other monk move on and any resistance attack
The Emperor by now knew the actions of course
That monasteries were still trying to get the message by force
He demanded intent, no messages sent, or he would order violence vent
The armed monk fought back down through the forest to the lake
He entered the water then impaled by a steel rake
The other armed monk proceeded forward
He fought and succeeded, many miles he’d take
